/ 1 8 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville. September 1, 1962 Letter to Editor August 26,1962 Dear Mr. Editor: re Darlington (Nuclear) Generating Station - a dead(ly) issue? The following points and questions are based on The Birch Bark Alliance-Winter '81-'82 editorial by C. Maynes. 1. Darlington will not be needed in 1990, when it is scheduled for completion. 2. Arthur Porter's Royal Commission on Electric Power Planning Report says that building a nuclear station for electric heating is an absurd absurd proposition. 3. Darlington's cost is approaching approaching $11 billion after starting at $5 billion. 4. The U.S. cancelled eight plants since last August. 5. Why would the U.S. government allow electricity imports designed to keep the Canadian nuclear industry alive, while its own nuclear industry goes out of business? 6. Why are Canadian electric electric utilities exempt from taxation, strongly subsidized and very accessible to debt financing when gasoline, for example, is very heavily taxed? 7. What will we do about our unborn children who, according according to research by Sr. R. Bertell, will suffer terrible damage from the low-level radioactive emissions? 8. What will happen with the 17 535 tonnes of spent fuel and the 50 tonnes of plutonium after Darlington is done with it? Perhaps you can do an editorial editorial on this topic. Sincerely, Henry Tensen, Bowmanville Dear Jonimy; My first question re the story "Town Hall Doomed?" was to my wife -- "Did you know we had a committee in town known as L.A.C.A.C.?" Her answer "good heavens". This article contained nothing new and was written by a Gary Chappie who apparently is a research student whose salary we probably help pay through the Ontario government. Chappie was apparently taken in much the same way as were diamond planners. They were both sold a bill of goods by some persons at town hall who got their facts all mixed up with their fantasies. Chappie says the first floor of the hall cannot accommodate the offices necessary to run the town and I will buy that though I can remember when the first floor accommodated the police force (2), the lockup, the town library, a court room plus the necessary offices. Whether using the Hampton building, the Bell building and the Police building causes S erious problems of inter epartment communications is another question. If using these buildings causes increased operating and maintenance costs (fuel, lighting and insurance) they have never been tabulated as far as I know. If this is a fact as soon as Chappie finishes his sojourn here he will want to get in touch with Premier iDavis, set out what he has learned in Bowmanville and point out to the premier the folly and expense of moving government offices from Toronto to Oshawa and Kingston. No doubt Mr: Davis will be impressed. I agree there are many advantages to the hall's restoration. We know we own it, we know it is beside the cenotaph, we know the location is super and we know it is a fine example of beaux arts styling as I believe this was written up by Mary Ann Warkman ages ago. We also know all about the Diamond feasibility study and we didn't like it. There was an open meeting to let Diamond explain the whys and wherefores of his plan and he could not only not sell it, he lost his cool in the attempt. This to the people who would be amongst those footing the bUl. The fact that L.A.C.A.C. supports the plan is interesting, but since L.A.C.A.C. has trouble reac some i very significant. The Diamond plan had certain merits for a place many times as large as Newcastle will ever be. It also had many costly drawbacks such as a community hall for which there is no need, an immense two storey foyer that some people might call brilliant but would serve no purpose as our town hall has no traffic, many too many offices, committee rooms, etc, etc. We do need a restoration and expansion within the present walls -- the second floor housing the necessary offices minus all the frills. Incidentally, it is my understanding that the adjoining land to the west, which the town owns, is not yet available and may not be for some years to come. According to my tally, which has not been researched, this is at least the fifth time there has been money spent getting ideas for our town hall and we are no closer to a solution now than we were years and years ago. I would like to see a referendum and I would like to know how much Diamond planners were paid, Morgan aching its quorum of five for me of its meetings it's not Holiday i epac .50 pr\c£ A.A9 p\US bV dep ,ostt de p\us posd A SUPERB BLEND, RICH IN BRAZILIAN COFFEES 8 O'clock Bean Coffee 1 lb BAG Case eotiSSM" P«C69S! 6U vM' t,WCE 3 lb BAG 7.99 Ourreg price 10.09 Save 2.10 4 iEFARA» For Freshness » Savings ^ PROD.
