~ THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES THURSDAY, MARCH 6, 1930 PAGE NINE Had the toriff, beén lett as Sir Wilfrid Laurier put it when he was Prime Minister of this country, in the city of Oshawa today there would be three months' extra work at ten hours per day, ifistead of con- ditions as we now find them. Yet we are asked to pay no attention to such a state of affairs, but to de- crease, still decrease, the meagre al- lowance of industrial protection there is left to our people. Investigate Thoroughly Mr. Speaker, this question may be before the house on another occasion 1 when I will endeavour to have avail- i {able further facts, All that I ask parliament to dorat the present time, and I plead with parliament, is to leave this question where it ought to be. First, have every fact investigat- cd before the tariff, beard. which has been appointed "and which is assum- edly functioning, and then leave to thie government of the day the ter- rible responsibility of wiping out a new -industry in this country and of demolishing a promising young city Supreme Court Opens Here on Monday Next With three criminal and 12 civil cases on the docket, the Sprihg Sittings of the Su- preme Court of Ontario for this county will open on Mon- day aftermoon at the Court House, with the Hon.

Show pected that vacant premises have quite a lot to do with it. Power and Light The "peak" demand for electri- city during February appears to have occurred at 5.55 in the after- noon on Tuesday, Feb. 4, and amounted to,830 horsé power. The kilowat ho consumption for the month was 276,800. A year ago the record for February stood at 803 horse power, while the kilowat hour consumption was 249,040. In view of the high water mark of va- cant premises in town, this in- crease in both demand and con- sumption would appear to have According to monthly statistics £ the Public Utility Commission, he amount of water delivered to 'he mains during the month of ebruary was 12,097,400 imperial | gllons, which is at the average te of 432,050 gallons per day.

E KAISER All Books Checked and Found in Excellent Order -- Sub- |! stantial Reduction Made in Town's Debenture Indebted- | ness Last Year--South Ward Citizens Seek Street Im. | front of this house' provements--Council to Investigate Report That C. N.| R. North Train Will Be Matters The repost of the auditors of the town's books for 1929, W. NM. Jer- myn and C. A. Freeman was pre- sented to the Town Council on Monday evening. The clerk and treasurer, John R. Frost, read the preface to the report and explained some of the details in the figures | incorporated in it. The report, which was adopted and referred to the Finance Committee for con- sideration, covers the accounts of the treasurer, tax collector, Board of Education, Public Utility Com- mission, Board of Health, Housing Commission and Public Library Board, The auditors reported that with- out exception they found the books accurate and well kept, all statu- tory requirements being met, The treasurer's cash book and the rolls of the collector were found to be well kept with no errors, as was also the general ledger of the trea- surer, A substantial reduction in the debenture debt during the year was reported, amounting to about $20,000. The auditors recommended that a careful check be kept on all in- surapce policies held by the town in order to avoid what might prove a serious loss. The town carrics quite a few poicies on buildings, fire fighting equipment and furni- ture. Seek Street Improements Several residents of Dufferin Street, in the South Ward, address- ed the Council asking for various improvements. Seymour Whitney called atten- tion to the bad condition of Duf- ferin Street, particularly in the early spring, and stated that so far as he could remember only once in 40. yeafs had gravel been put on it. He suggested that the Council look over the street and have some gravel put on it. Joseph Wilson called attention to the bad condition of the C.N.R. bridge approaches, and also to the need of a foot bridge across it for the protection of pedestrians, par- ticularly the school children. It was a marvel to him, considenng the amount of trafic over the bridge and the speed at which' cars travel, that children had not been injured or killed before this. Hé suggested that this matter might be taken up with the Railway Board. Frank Steffler complained of a ditch on the east side of Dufferin Street, opposite his home, which was always filled up, causing his property to be flooded. He said that the town some times cleaned it out but it became blocked again. He suggested ' that some relief might be given him. William Harden spoke in sup- port of the three requests made, He thought that they were justi- fled and within reason, Reeve Jackson called attention to the fact that on Railway Street, where a bridge was washed out last spring, tliere was no protection for motorists, He suggested that some sort of a barricade be erect- ed immediately. Mayor C. E, Bowman, in referr- ing the three requests from Duf- fering Street to the Streets Com- mittee, stated that they would have careful consideration. The Chairman of Streets was in- structed to have a barricade erect- ed on Railway Street as suggested by the reeve. May Cancel Train It having been reported to Coun- | cil that the Canadian National was contemplating the cancellation of the early train from the north at an early date, the clerk was in- structed to write the divisional superintendent at Belleville and ask for information. It was learn. ed that the C.N.R. might put on a substitute, train which would ar rive here at 9 a.m., in which event Council felt that school children coming to Whitby from the north would not be too much inconven- fenced. © GREAT NDS The youmg poet cffered the edi- | 'zor a poem which somehow seem- ed very familiar to the editor, "Did*youn write this unaided?" the editor asked.

When these gentlemen were here, 2--KAISER'S SPEECH .... when that procession of honest Can: adians seeking to protect their homes and their jobs came to Ottawa, what were they told? They were told by the Prime Minister of Canada to go home and devote themselves to the reading of the 19th chapter of the Acts of the Apostles, which described them as so many thousands of hea- thens in a. rage coming to. this city to importune the great apostle, ask- ing him to save them, and shouting "0, great is Diana of the Ephesians." Prhis was all the sympathy handed out to those people. on that occasion. orthy of Conisderation I ask my hom friend from Saska- toon whether a man who is a Can- adian in an industrial city is not worthy of the same consideration from this country as any other citi- zen.
