RTE Sa > THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, FRIDAY, MARCH 2, 1928 uarter Million Investment in Buildings Here I -- 00D. PROGRESS CLEARING AWAY TRAIN WRECKAGE Corner Will Be Free from Debris Today to Allow G.M.C. MOVE CONTENTS : May. Be Monday Night Be- fore All is Cleaned Up-- .. Trains Running p s progress is being made in clearing away the box cars wrecked at. Ritson road and Bruce streets yes- _terday morning. Trains are now run- ning through on this line, and it is expected that the corner will be clear ed away for street traffic this after- noon. There are, however, four cars still on the scene, one of which will no doubt be removed this afternoon, and it may be Monaay night before the debris is entirely removed. In the meantime, General Motors trucks are engaged in removing the ntents of the cars to the plant, where they are needed in production, The two front cars of the train, which turned on their sides on the south side on Bruce street, were load- ed with steel body parts. These suf- "féred little damage and are being re- ..amoyed to the plant this morning. Three cars were removed yester- day, the two which stayed on the rails, and one other which was not damaged except for a hole stove m Ata, side, Work was preceeding this Jorn g in righting the car which *was half on its side, and which is loaded with lumber. been placed under The trucks had it shortiy after noon, and it is expected that it will be on the rails and taken away today. When this car has been removed the street will once more be open for traf fic. The steel contents of the two cars on their sides will have to be removed before they can be righted. It will probably take until tomorrow afternoon to 'clear the cars, and un- til late Monday afternoon to right them and haul them on the tracks. This work may, of course, be finish- ed sooner if the wrecking crew works on Sunday. The lumber strewn over the street from the most badly dam- aged car was also removed yesterday fiernoom, and it is not expected that Ne gemoval of this car will create any eunsiderable difiiculty, There isn't much of it left to move, It was found impossible to employ the aid of an Foi iid outfit to as- sist in clearing up the wreck, for the tracks of the Oshawa Railway are not considered heavy enough to stand the strain. However, with the equipment at their disposal, the men are making good time in righting the cars and clearing away the debris, NO ARRESTS IN CITY OVER NIGHT No arrests were made by city po- lce last night, and only one sum- mons case came hefore Magistrate Hind in police court this morn- ing. Joseph Ferry was charged with not sending his children to school and, since a doctor's certi- ficate was produced gertifying that he was unable to appear, the case was further adjourned until Tues- day. FALSE ALARM Once again, last evening, the Al- ger Block, King street east, re- ceived attention from the city fire department. About 6.15 a citizen 'phoned that there was a fire in the top story of the new building. The department found a fire, all right, but it was in a brazier and was quite harmless. al S*Y ESMEN AND CAN- VASSERS WANTED for Oakland Park subdivi- sion.

R, Luke's Residence The ladder truck of the Osha- wa fire department was damaged this morning when answering a fire call, the left rear wheel of the tractor being broken off. Repairs were made immediately, however, and before press time this after- noon the apparatus was once more in the fire station, ready for ser- vice. The call which the department was answering at the time, came in to the police station by tele- phone about 9.20 this morning. A neighbor had noticed fire in the roof of the residence of J. H, R. Luke, 222 Kendal Avenue, and $25 damage was done before it was ex- tinguished. The blaze had evi- dently started from a spark from a nearby chimney, and it was burning merrily in the cedar shingles when firemen arrived and had burned through the roof and caught in some rubbish in the at- tic. Two 2-gallon cans of chemi- cal extinguished the fire. The loss is covered hy insurance. The accident to the fire truck occurred at Simcoe and Elgin streets, when the driver attempted to take the turn east on E'gin street, The rear part of the truck skidded on an icy spot in the pavement, and the whole truck jacknifed, breaking off the left rear wheel of the tractor when it hit the curb on the north side of Elgin street, DE!

IS CONSTRUCTING TWO APARTMENT HOUSES TO COST OVER $90,000 L. V. Disney Takes Out Per- mits, One for $40,000 and the Other for $50,000 -- Will Make Three Apart ment Houses of Mr, Dis- ney Now Being Ervected-- Will Be Ready for Occu- pancy May 15 At least a quarter of a million dollars has been invested in build- ing in Oshawa by Mr. L. V. Dis- ney, building permits for yester- day, the first of March, reveal. Two permits were obtained yester- day by Mr. Disney, for apart- ment houses now under counstruc- tion, for $40,000 and $50,000. With a previous permit for an apartment at Bagot and Simcoe, for which Mr. Disney took a per- mit out for $65,000, Mr. Disney's total for buildings in Oshawa would easily aggregate one quar- ter of a million. The three apartment buildings ! now in the process of construction will be three stories high, two con- taining 18 suites, and the third at Bagot and Simcoe with 19 suites. They will be without doubt three of the finest exclusive apartment buildings in the district, Of the latter two apartments, one is being built at the corner of Simcoe and Quebec, for which the $50,000 permit was issued, and the other is directly west of that building, on the south side of Quebec Avenue. They will be of solid brick, steel and stone construction throughout, and will he made as ahsolute fireproof as possible. Electric stoves and electric refrigeration will be a main feature - of these attractive apartments. Hot water service, drying rooms, are other modern conveniences which will be *'stan- dard equipment" in these build- ings. Dunham steam-heating con- trol which assures even and ade- quate heating at all times will be installed, Janitor service will be supplied and a garbage incinera- tor will take care of all waste. Mr. Disney told the Daily Times today that these buildings would be all ready for occupancy on May 15. They are all situated at strategic points, where the great- est amount of sunlight and trees will make the surroundings as pleasant as possible, ; March 1st came in like a lion, as far as building permits were concerned. A total of $93,000 was rolled up, addition to the apartment house permits, one taken out by Mr, B. W. Haynes, for an addition to his shop on King Street, for $200, and a permit issued to Mr. L. Midmit for a frame house on Drew Street for $1,000. PROTEST NOT YET CONSIDERED BY O.H.A. Sammy Lowe, manager of the The matching of Marlboros | intermediates, received the follow- ing wire from Secretary Tackaber- ry of the O.H.A. last evening, in reference to the Oshawa protest: "As soon as the Kitchener defence is received, the O.H.A. sub-com- mittee will take up the Oshawa protest." Kitchener had until yesterday to file their defence, but | as Secretary Tackaberry could not be located today, and whether they i did so, is still a matter of conjec- ture. It is considered probable that they did, as the protest would then have to be automatically granted, and if so, it will come up today.

VICTORY DINNER CLOSES DRIVE (Continued from page 1) Commerce campaigns, had he re- ceived so much pleasure from it as he had here. "Almost I am per- suaded to be a Canadian' was his tribute to Oshawa. The city's newspaper The Oshawa Daily | Times, had heen a great factor in the success of the campaign, he said, stating that seldom had he seen a city where so much front page space was given to help put over the Chamber of Commerce campaign. Postmaster Mathison also received sincere praise for his {ine spirit of service in aiding the campaign; the public spirit of mine host Joe Welsh was lauded; and the three office girls, who had worked long hours with real in- terest in the campaign were given a hearty appreciation of applause by the men present. W. Eric Harris, secretary of the Sarnia Chamber of Commerce, and and F. G, Stinson, secretary of the Peterborough organization, gave brief addresses. Mr. Harris pointed out the interdependability of cities and inter-community enterprises with the illustration of Sarnia's oil refinery, the largest refining plant of gasoline and motor oils in the RBrit!sh Empire, which would not have nearly as much prosperity if it were not for the automobiles turned out in Oshawa. He showed some of the achievements of that city's Chamber, which has develop- ed a harbor from a swamp; se- cured a sugar refinery to utilize the county's supply of sugar beets; put a million-bushel elevator on its harbor; and is contemplating the promotion of a new and modern hotel, The good wishes of the Peter- | borough Chamber of Commerce and city counvil were conveyed by Mr. Stinson who spoke briefly on "Young People and Canada." He pointed out the problem of emi- gration to the United States, when Canada should, by a united effort, hold them here. We must trade at home in our own city, he urged, buying if possible goods made by local factories and sold by local merchants, In a few words Mr. H. A, Brown, General Manager of General Mot- ors of Canada, -Limited, beartily endorsed the plan for a Chamber of Commerce for this city, and paid high tribute to Mr. McLaughlin and the others who headed up the campaign, Mr. Brown spoke of the great prosperity which he believed is in store for Canada and gave it , a8 his opinion that Oshawa would undoubtedly share to a very con- siderable extent in this prosperity. | "We must organize our forces into such a body as the Chamber of Commerce to take full advantage of the present fayorable situation," he said. D.A.J. Swanson and Majors H C. Lecky, F. C. Hodgins, M. Jacobi and A. Moffatt addressed the gath- ering briefly. In closing chairman McLaughlin said that a new page has been written on the history of Jshawa, and there is no doubt that the city bas a future that will lead along the high road of success. Let us hand down upsullied the good name of Oshawa, was his closing | thought.
