Fred Sturch, Myrtle Lovelock and Frank Thompson were nom- inated for the post of deputy Teeve. During the m were nominated to fi four men the three chairs of the municipal council. Don Roberts, and John Batty both announced their intentions to seek re-election this year.

Archibald as tea WHITBY (Staff) -- The first faint rumbles of electioneering were heard Monday night at the nomination meeting for the Dec. 12 election in Whitby Town- ship. All posts but those filled by township councillors will be con- tested. Copies of the financial state- ment, showing township expen- ditures and revenues for the first 10 months of 1964 were distributed to the more than 100 persons present. Deputy Reeve John Dryden, chairman of the finance com- mittee, explained many of the intricacies of the statement. He said the statement repre- sented only the first 10 months of the year and did not give a full picture. On the whole he added town- ship finances were in good con- dition and many money saving ideas -had been implemented this year for the first time. He explained that 54.66 per cent of the township tax dollar was spent by the school board and the municipal council had no control over it other than the responsibility of adding it to the tax bill. A further 19.89 per cent: of the taxes collected were used for Eastern Star Holds Meeting WHITBY (Staff) -- Worthy Matron, Sister Mary Inkpen, presided in the East, assisted by Worthy Patron, Brother Jeff Martin at the regular meeting of Whitby Chapter, No. 248, Order of the Eastern Star. The flag was presented and escorted to the East by Sister Esther Hood, Marshal, The meeting opened in form and the officers and members of Whitby Chapter were welcomed by the worthy matron, who also wel- comed Mrs. Marie Osterhout, from Belleville Chapter, a new member of Whitby Chapter. Speedy recovery was wished to the sick and sympathy ex- pressed to those bereaved of loved ones. . The next meeting will be held Dec. 8 in the Chapter room at the Masonic Hall. A pleasant pleted with a visit from Santa Claus. There will be no meeting Dec. 24. At the close fo the meeting the committee in charge served THE OSHAWA TIMES, Tuesday, December 1, 1964 county purposes, he added, and again the township council has these sums. "This leaves us with about 25 per cent of the money we collect under our control," he said. ASSESSMENT UP He explained that in the past year too large additions to the township assessment roll have added almost 12 per cent to the total township assessment. "If we spend the same amount as we did last year, then the taxes could go down as much as 10 percent." "T do not believe that if we get an increased assessment, that we should start to spend more, but that we should try and hold taxes down. "Low taxes will attract more industry, and with this added assessment the load on every one will be lightened. ROAD BUDGET DECEIVING He said the 1964 road bud- get of $549,049.75 was deceiving as much of the amount spent could be recovered from various grants. A large portion of this bud- get he added was used to con- struct an overpass on Hopkins street providing access to. the new steel mill and most of this sum was under grant. Councillor Don Roberts told the ratepayers that as chairman of the fire and property com- mittee he had worked on the area number two and the new municipal building.

Grants from the Emergency Measures Organization are available he said. The EMO will pay 45 per cent of $18,000 to help meet the expense, NEW SYSTEM APPROVED William Manning, and many others who announced their in- tention to run for school board expressed approval of the new one area school system that will come into effect Jan. 1. He explained that under the new system the day of the small country school is gone and that every one in the township would pay an equal share for educa- tion and have made available to them equal facilities. The tax difference, where in one municipality the mill rate for education is under 10 mills and in another the rate is above 25 mills would cease. "This will mean a phenom- enal increase in the mill rate of some municipalities," he con- cluded, GORDON OSBORNE REAL ESTATE & INSURANC 218 Dundas St, E., Whitby Dial 666-8831 Clare Shank Nick Van De Broek Ike Perry Ruth Snodden IMMACULATE SPLIT LEVEL EXECUTIVE HOME eway from subdivision section in older built up area of Whitby is o delight to see with the sturdy oak floors, beautiful entrance hall with built in planter, wrought iron railing ond that feeling of spaciousness not seen in most modern homes, The dining room looks out on a fine londscaped garden and open country while the kitchen is bright and sparkling.
