They carried the safe into a warehouse and tore off the back with metal tools they found there. Once through to the steel inner walls of the safe the gang began to cut their way to the cash, It was at this point that a janitor began to make his rounds. He saw the safe was missing from an office. and no- ticed lights in the warehouse. When he ran into the ware- house he found the safe lying on the ground almost 'cut through.

Announcing his candidacy this morning, His Worship stressed a pay-as-we-go policy on city financing. The emphasis will be on reducing debenture spending while keeping up with demands for essential services. In a prepared statement, the mayor underlined the 'course of action' on fiscal policy re- garding the quality and quan- tity of services and improve- ments council wishes to under- take, and the method of financ- ing. EXPLAINS FINANCING In 1963 and 1064 Council gave much thought to these. questions during the preparation of the Current and Capital Budgets of the city and decided on the fis- cal polia¥ of the City during a period of substantial growth in population. Council authorized in 1964 de- benture issues of $1,553,500.00 which compared with $1,569,- 667:00 of debentures matured in 1964. In other words, this city in 1964. paid off more than it bor- rowed and, in consequence, the funded debenture debt line was held. This 1964 debenture issue, ap) proved by the Ontario Munici- pal Board, was for the purpose of only essential services such as local improvements, general works, schools, public' utilities commission and the city's share of the Administration of Justice building. It is a tribute to the credit rat. that the lowest interest rate cost, for at least three years, on debenture financing was ob- tained through this recent de benture issue. Our debenture debt at the end of 1964 now stands at $16,669,- 900.00 compared with $18,683,- 100.00 in 1963 and $18,994,536.00 in 1962. This, however, is no time for complacency. The challenge to the city's fiscal policy in the next few years is evidenced by the unfunded debenture commit- ments of approximately $4,800,- 000.00 which it is only fair to mention in order to give you, the citizens, the other side of |the coin, NET DEBT Unfunded debenture debt . is the net debenture requirements authorized by city council for capital undertakings which have not yet been financed by money borrowed through the public Mrs. Christine Thomas, a former mayor of Oshawa, told The Times today she will definitely be a candidate for either mayor or alderman in the December municipal elec- tion.

Mayor Gifford caught a coun- cil seat are ago and has been off only once since --when he was defeated by Mrs. Chris- tine Thomas for the 1961-62 term. He served as alderman from 1954 to 1957, inclusive, and then beat Wlater Lane and Ald. Gor- don. Attersley. in a three-way race for the mayor's chair in ing of the citizens of this city 1958 He served the city's first two year term (1959-60) when he was unopposed. : A Cedar Dale native ("make that two wotds, for .heaven's sake"), the mayor was born on a caper oe Farewell avenue, just north of his present Sydenahm Harbor home on Lake Ontario. TWO FARMS In his youth he managed two farms (including the 125 acre one he now operates) and found time to be elected to st Whithy Township counci). He bio 27 in his first council year, He was deputy-reeve in 1934 and reeve in 1936. In 1938 he became the youngest Ontario County warden in history. The mayor took a 10-year holi- day from active politics, reap- pearing in 1948 as a Liberal can- didate in the Ontario Riding by- election caused by the death of W. E. N. Sinclair. He ran second to Arthur Wil- liams, the CCF candidtae, 2000 votes behind. Frank McCallum, then mayor of Oshawa, ran third on the Progressive Conservative ticket, He took another 10-year holi- day before taking his Oshawa council seat in 1954.

Friday. WILLIAM SMITH Urge 'Police' Youth Bureau To Help Wayward Teeners A youth bureau to be oper- ated by the Oshawa police de- partment was proposed last night by a five-man panel. Det. Sgt. John Powell, a 19- year veteran of the local force, said such a bureau would help prevent boys and girls from getting into trouble. Other members of the panel, Harold MacNeil, probation offi- cer of the juvenile and family courts; William A. Smith, school attendance officer; Dr. Thomas Enright, a psychiatrist at the Ontario Hospital, Whitby and Bernard (Barney) Lewis, direc- (tor of the Oshawa and Ontario County Children's Aid Society and moderator agreed with Sgt. Powell. Panel members were guests of the University Women's Club of Oshawa and discussed ju- venile delinquency. PREVENT CRIME "The police department is primarily interested in the pre- vention of crime--then appre- hension," said Sgt. Powell. Questioned by Mr. Lewis as to who would operate the pro- posed youth bureau, Sgt. Powell said a policeman and police- woman would work with indus- try and other organizations to keep the children busy. 'Eventually women will have to be brought into the Oshawa police force," he said. Sgt. Powell also advocated in- creasing the age limit of juven- iles in Ontario to 18 from the current age of 15. He said there HAROLD MacNEIL should be uniformity in age classification of juveniles. Mr; MacNeil said the term juvenile delinquent is a protec- tive one. Even if a juvenile is convicted of some pffence he does not have a record when he reaches adulthood, he said. "There are 73 children on prebation in Oshawa right now," said Mr. MacNeil. He said that of 215 juveniles brought to court last year, five boys and five girls were com- mitted to training schools. Mr. MacNeil said a youth bureau would be "good preven- tative medicine"'. Mr. Smith said the juvenile de- linquency problem is first re- cognized in the school. TRAIN TEACHERS He said school teachers should be trained to recognize such a problem child at an early age. Dr, Enright said "school is the place where these children first show themselves. ; "It is coming to be recogniz- ed now that juvenile delinqu- ency has a multiplicity of causes." Dr, Enright described a typi- cal home which breeds a juve- nile delinquent: financially poor --poor budgeting--low in self respect--poor relationship be- tween parents--no recreation in the home--a family that is on the move--broken hofhe plagu- ed by separation and divorce. He said some parents have destructive wishes against their children and are not at rest until BERNARD LEWIS they are in reform school or in some form of detention. Sgt. Powell said he recently questioned an 1l-year-old boy but "wasted four days" attempt- ing to get a statement because everytime he had the parents at his office they were drunk. The Juvenile Delinquency' Act re- quires police have at least one parent in attendance when tak- ing a statement from a juvenile in connection with an alleged offence. "It is parents like these who should be before the court," he said. "They are contributing to juvenile delinquency." Dr. Enright said: "We hear a lot about .the battered child syndrome--physical neglect -- but what about emotional ne- glect?"' Sgt. Powell said: "Unfortun- ately cases like this are not dis- covered until we come in con: tact with these homes . . . but who knows about them before we find them? Who cares? No- body." Mr. MacNeil said he would like to see a YMCA in Oshawa. "This is something that is badly needed,"*he said. 'I would also like to see an expansion of the YWCA." ° : Starr Gets Dealership The Hon, Michael Starr, MP for Ontario Riding during the last 12 years, has invested in private enterprise in Ajax. His new business venture is in the automotive field. He is jointly owning a General Mo- tors. dealership in Ajax with 'Harry Peleshok, who was for- merly connected with motor Sales in Oshawa. The have leased a station at the corner of Harwood avenue and Station road, Mr. Starr said, Although Mr. Starr is a full partner and president of the firm he will not spend any time in the management of the dealership: "I will Jook after Ontario County's representation in Ot- tawa,"' he said. '""My time will be devoted to. my tasks as a Member of Parliament." Mr. Peleshok he added, will be vice-president and general manager of the déalership.
