While no official announcement was made at yesterday‘s meeting of the town council, it was mentioned inforâ€" mally by Councillor Bill Wren that the Ontario Municipal Board will not grant approval for the $50,000 street paving program recommended for this year in Timmins. The information was divuiged in the course of a disâ€" cussion on the paving of certain lanes in the downtown area. Countillor Wren demanded to know who had auâ€" thorized the inclusion of lane paving in the program of public works ‘hat was submitted to the Municipal Board for their consideration and in a short exchange of "pleasantries" Mayor Bartleman denied that he was in any way responsible. Town Engineer Jack McLean informed the members that the building of permanent laneways had been recommended by council at a private meeting but when the disâ€" cussion ended there was little light on how the project had crept into the recommendaions for this year. Counâ€" cillor Wren told the meeting that he certainly would not favour paving laneways when the Municipal Boara are unfavourable to regular street payâ€" ing. # Will Not Authorize Expenditure of $50,000 Here This Year, Councillor Wren Discloses at Council Meeting Yesterday.

An examination of the ~refinery showed that the bars on one of the windows had been cut with a hacksaw. From the size of the opening it apâ€" pears obvious thet the thief making the actual entrance to the refinery must have been small in stature. It is also apparent that two or more men â€"took part in the robbery and used either a car or truck to make a getaway. Police at various points throughout the North and particularly on the main routes out of Timmins have been instructed to keep close watch on highways and‘ railroad to prevent the valuable cargo getting out of the country. . Working on the supposition that the ore may be cached somewhere in the district, police officers are conâ€" ducting an intensive search in every locality.
