How much con-onion did this enuaet Other Cities F Although Metro does not an In inhibitor in its ult, many other cities do, such as Aspen and Pueblo, Colorado; Rapid City and Aberdeen, South Dakota; Sheridan and Can- per, Wyoming; Salim. Lawrence and Witchita, Kansas; Rochester, New York; Denver, Colorado; Ed- monton, Alberta. Winnipeg is pren- ently using urea on bridge ap- proaches hut this chemical is too) expensive to use extensively as a‘ non corrosive substitute for salt. In ‘ response fmm public demand Metro Toronto commissioned a study by the Ontario Research Foundation to determine how effective an in- hibitor would be in reducing the corrosion in autobody steel. The tests generally proved that 65% of the corrosion would be prevented, but because of the general limita- tions of the tests, Metro Works Committee could not see its way clear to recommend that an inhibi- tor be used in all salt used in Metro. The salt and cement com- panies have done considerable re- search into the problems of spall- ing of concrete as a result of the use of salt. They have generally determined that air entrained con- crete treated with a surface appli-' ration of kerosene and linseed oil will minimize spalling while all bridge decks and flat surfaces of concrete should be treated with a hot rubberized mastic asphalt or a bituminous emulsion membrane to waterproof the surface of the concrete.

Problem Recognized The problem is now becoming recognised in professional circles across the United States and Can- ada. Tests on vehicle corrosion end the proportion attributable to road The town of Weston has but one vote in Metro Toronto gov- ernment. The value of that vote this year will be $908,656 or not too far short of one million dollars. Weston stands 11th out of the 13 municipalities in the amount of total annual contribution to Metro government. Neighboring Etobicoke provides the third largest amount, North York the second largest and York Town- ship the fifth largest contribu- tion. When Metro government was in its first full year, 1954, the town of Weston's annual contribution was $234,000. _ W e a t o n's representative at Metro meetings is quiet, pipe- smoking Mayor War Boddington who sits towards the rexr of the Metro Council chamber between two new city alderman who are also first year men at the Metro level. Mr. Boddington is a mem- ber of Metro's welfare and hous- ing committee which has public housing as its major concern along with operation and pro- vision of homes for the aged. Mr. Boddington follows three other Weston mayors who were reprmv'ntatiires at Metro govern- ment. Harry Clark, Jock Holley and George Bull. A former Weston deputy TCPVe and rounrillor was W, W.

The Weston mlyor, who is (at coming to grips with Metro prob- lems has this to say about the record Metro budget: "The executive committee hacked at the $249,000,000 budget pretty good and I found it difficult to see where any more funds could be removed." While attending the Metro Council meeting last week the Weston mayor took time out for a brief discussion with Metro Assessment Commissioner A. J. B. Gray. Metro Chairman William Allen has come up with a new word . . . gel-base . . . This is used to describe long winded and complicated speeches or involved civic reports. Last week was quite a week for most home owners. They will get a tax rate increase and probably an inereaae'in water rates. York Township Reeve J ack Mould didn't say a word during Metro's budget debate. The Weston mayor had no formal comments either on the budget. - Did you know that Metro municipalities get a share of the dimes poured into pay telephone booths located on sidewalks?

But Mr. Douglas has only told half the Metro Traffic Commissioner Samuel Cass reports that the accident record for the intersec- tion of Llwrence Avenue and Weston Road is unusually high. Since 1962 a. total of 71 traffic accidents have been investigated by the police at the Weston in- tersection. Because 26 of these accidents have involved left turn movements Metro has decided to ban left turns for southbound vehicles. Every time Metro Planning Board mails out an agenda to its members it costs 42 cents be- cause of the weight of paper. The province has approved 5 Metro bylaw prohibiting boule- vard parking on Metro roads in York Township. A proposal from York Town- ship that Metro finance the loca- tion of rescue vehicles in sections of the Metro area. will be inveso tigated. John Pollard, Metro civil defense director Slid a central dispatching system could be made to work for rescue vehicles. Weston’s mayor read a tribute in Metro Council to the late Judge Douglas Webster of the York County juvenile and family court.

If he believes in I capital pins tax for the rich apiulisu u whom he was obviously pointing his finger then he was obviously pointing his finger at those in the three, four and five thousand dollar income tax buckets as well. "Many of those persons who worked and toiled to purchase their homes 20 years ago for a sum of maybe $5,000.00 which, in those years was a lot of money but today because of the increase in values that house would be worth maybe $tli,000.00. If those per- sons, many of whom are now old age pensioners wish to sell their homes may conceivably obtain a price of double or triple the value of what they paid for their house 20 years ago. Then that increase in value is I capital gain. That, under Mr. Douglas's formula is taxable, and would hurt those in the income bracket that Mr. Doug- Ins was so obviously trying to im- press," the PC candidate said. Nationalization "They called for a notionaliza- tion of the Bell Telephone then and they all for that same policy now. Yet the rationalization of the Bell Telephone would wipe out millions of dollars of security for many widows who purchased this company stock for the use as . pension plan." Mr. Colebourn went on, "Them just recently Mr. Douglas attacked the United States for its involve- ment in Viet Nam. He wants the Americans to get out of the wet in South East Asia. There is no sense in trying to convince the N.D.P. that the withdrawal of the United States in South Viet Nam would leave the free world vulner- able to a crushing defeat through- ‘out Asia. Mr. Douglas is as much away from reality today " he was 'when he was a member of the Canadian House of Commons in the late 1930's when he stood up in the Commons and supported a CCF amendment calling for de- tmae expenditures to he reduced to one dollar. He wanted to know 'who were these imaginary bogy- men who were going to plunge the world into war. Were they-Ger- many.' Italy? Japan y History tells us now that Mr. Douglas did lnot have to wait long to find out. "I point out these items to you because in I world more attuned to internationalism than ever be- fore, a political party"s platform on foreign policy is extremely im- portant. The N.D.P. policy would bring isolation to Canada, and as a result we would be cut adrift from our friends in the United States and in Asia and Australia. .In "When these issues", he added, ll (l il K I N (l N (l W 1 8ljSN3Slgflli'S ': tlirris', a M P l ll f i ttrlteil,1',rr'?sN1s" BEVERLY HILLS ACCOMMODATION FOR IS TO 100 "ISO!!! 1617 Wihoa Av... no" the Junction " Highway 400 and 40t Impalaâ€.

"I might point out that the Pro- gressive Conservative Party’s posi- tion in the Udi. involvement in Viet Nam is simple and clear. We sup- port the United States action in South hat Asia. "There in a growing demand across Canada", Mr. Colebourn said. "for I change of government in Ottawa. And the only alter- native to the present Liberal ed- ministration is a newly revised Progressive Conservative Party. "Finally", My. Coleboum said, “I would like to point out that in keeping with the free enterprise philosophy of the Progressive Con- servative Party we believe that the larger the portion of personal in- come that is left to the people, the higher will be the benefits to the country as a whole. in the Progressive Conservative Party firmly believe that the time has come for a Wit on tun. We believe that it is not good enough that government should take money from the people only to try to return it to them in welfare.
