Council Tums Down a Proposal to Place Tins for Refuse on Streets councillor L4 and he vou the respon themselves and not thc that. the st: ed every 111g merchants I He told of building th with paper 1115 neignbo A proposal from the Timmins Retail Merchants' Association before the coun- cil at their regular weekly meeting yes- terday afternoon wasn't very favorably received. The proposal was that the town; erect refuse containers in dlfler- ent parts of the town so that people could toss in any empty cigarette pack- ages. etc. instead of throwing them on the street. with paper and refuse from a store it. his neighbourhood. Councillor Karl Eyre told the coun- cil that there was very little that could be done about the proposal at this time anyway, because it was doubtful if the metal cans could be purchased now. Councillor Spooner thought the sug- gestion a good, one and asked the coun- cll to keep it in mind so that action could be taken on it when cans could be purchased. Town Engineer McLean and Fire Chief Borland added their comments to the discussion saying that the mer- chants would sweep their floors in the morning,r and sweep the refuse across the sidewalk onto the street. When they did this the stuff would get blown all over the street by the wind. Councillor Terry suggested that the containers were for the transients but it seemed to be the merchants them- selves who were causing the trouble. Clerk-Treasurer Art Shaw was fin- ally instructed to write to the associa- tion and explain the council’s viewpoint. Another matter that came in for some discussion was the matter of taking out insurance on the Timmins Arena. It was suggested in a letter from John Carnovale. owner of the arena, that the town take out 810.0000 insurance on the building as it was a real fire hazard now. He pointed out that he had rent- ed the arena to the town at a price where wasn‘t making any profit and he couldn‘t afford to take out insurance on the building. The fire hazard was increased recently, he said when the town decided to allow the arena to be used as a salvage depot. Mrs. ('ote Stayed With Children at Picnic Event A proposed programme for organiza- tion of the Civilian Defence Committee was approved by the council and work organizing the various services will start immediaeely. It was suggested by the committee that the medical and nurs- ing services be carried on as well as the fire services. the public utilities services. transportation services. etc. It was pointed out that at least five hundred air raid wardens would be needed and it was suggested that a chief air raid warden and two deputies be picked out to start with. They could train others and they could be named when needed.

Fire Chief ‘Borland sug- gested that if no more salvage was put into the rink and the machines were to work steadily baling what was already there they would have to work till some time in the fall before clearing the arena. 'He agreed that since the sal- vage has been deposited there the fire hazard has increased cosiderably. Councillor Bartleman suggested to the council that they approach their soliCi- tor to see where they stood if the build- ing did burn and no insurance was car- ried on it.

The application forms will be sent out by mail from June 19th to June 23rd. All the application forms must be gathered up on the evening of June 25th. Mr. Dunlop has a number of volunteer canvassers lined up al- ready. but more are needed. The Ki- wanis Club and the Lions Club have both agreed to provide a number of volunteer canvassers..

First among the four requisites for “meeting the emergency," Mr. Langdon placed the necessity for promoting an intelligent understanding of the issues involved. In this connection he read [to the meeting the National Resources lMobilization Act. carefullv noting Sec- tion 3 in reference to service bevond Canada. There is a bill in the House lat nr-esent with the intention of delet- ing that section. The Dent-Governor of the Kiwanis nointed out that the Act gave the Cabinet tremendous pow- ers. not onlv over mannower. but with regard to everv nhase of the war. Mr. Langdon's idea was that while the. [present emergencv should be fullv met, ithere should also be every fair effort made to maintain things as normal as possible.
