2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Mondey, March 16, 1964 GOOD EVENING -- By JACK GEARIN -- Ont. Hints Assault On Child Beaters EAST END FIRE HALL STILL AN URGENT NEED Each year at this time, City Council's Traffic and Public Safety committee wrestles with a pressing recommendation: Should money be set aside in the next budget for an east end fire station to service that populous, fast-growing area now dependent on the Simcoe street headquarters station 2% miles distant? Regardless of how sympa- thetic the committee may be, the recommendation is never implemented by Coun- cil -- there simply isn't enough money in the bud- get, regardless of the re- commendations' merit. How could thete be when there is so much needless waste in the municipal ad- ministration, such as in the Board of Works Yard? (why use three men on a road job when six or seven are available?) Then there is the Education bill tax bite, which many think excessive, Such fire services must be curtailed at least until we a get our municipal house in order, Fire Chief Ray Hobbs has been asking for this east end hall since 1957, when the City bought a site for it atop Hart's Hill on the north side of King street east. The cost would be great ($45,000 for a hall and an annual payroll in excess of $190,000), but what'would this be in terms of human lives lost, or property destroyed in the event of a major fire. There is another disturbing thing about Chief Hobbs' request -- he says it is sometimes difficult to get his equip- ment up Hart's Hill when road conditions are icy.

"Bob" Smith, the part-time undertaker and dedicated organizer for the "Wets" who worked so successfully in these vineyards during the 193 Oshawa liquor plebiscite campaign? He said Oshawa could have one cocktail lounge, or five, Mepending, of course, on the Ontario Liquor Licensing Board ~~ the same rule applied to dining lounges with liquor licenses, or government store liquor outlets in annexed areas. Mr. Smith made this observation last December. It was soon after the triumphant showing here of his "Wet" forces in the November 23 plebiscite (when only 39.6 of the eligible voters turned out -- 14,344 out of 36,228). The following recom- mendations for new liquor outlets were endorsed; (1) cock- tail lounges by 62.7 per cent (2) dining lounges with liquor licenses by 64.9 per cent (3) retail outlets in annexed areas by 69.8 per cent (3) cocktail lounges by 64.9 per cent. Bridgeport, near Kitchener, had but 785 voters in its liquor plebiscite balloting -- today it has three cocktail lounges. Mr. Smith's home town of Niagara-on-the-Lake has a population of 2,500 --. today it has five licensed hotels with cocktail lounges, plus a brewer's warehouse and liquor pe as well as liquor outlets at the Canadian Legion, golf'club and Officers' Mess. ("I can prove that Niagara-on-the-Lake is one of the best behaved communities in this or any other prov- ince,"" he Said). The Ontario Liquor Licensin g Board will hold a prelimin- ary hearing in Toronto for Oshawa applicants soon after it decides on the exact date for its next regional meeting in Peterborough (late April or early May). The preliminary meeting will serve as a sort of elimin- ation tourney to cut down the things as architectural designs Applicants can only appear with permission of the Board number of applicants (such will be considered), at the Peterborough hearing --- newspaper notices of the Jater hearing must be published three weeks in advance to give ample time to all concerned (including those' who may Oppose a certain application) to appear personally. There was a bright note in Mr. Smith's observations last December on dining lounges with liquor licenses. "Better dining lounges usually follow where the liquor- with-meals plebiscite succeeds,' he said, If there is one thing needed in Oshawa it is more good dining lounges. This need was vote for the dining lounges. As an indication of Mr. stressed in the 64.9 per cent Smith's effectiveness as a lets.
