Unemploy No dove Winter Job----To Share in ment Proposals If the Town of Whitby wishes to secure financial assistance under the federal government unemployment relief scheme for new ws under- taken this winter, it will have to rove to the satisfaction of J. E. illis, administrator of the fund at Queen's Park, that the seasonal un- employment in Whitby at this time is greater than usual. In ad- dition, assistance can only be secured on work which can be carried on during the winter months, and this does mot include street paving as was suggested a week ago at a special meeting of the Council. avements, according to the govern. ment, cannot be constructed during the winter months, . The above information was given to the Council on Monday evening by Reeve Jackson, who reported on behalf of a special iy commit tee which waited on the acting prime minister, Hon. George 8. Hoary at the Parliament Buildings on Mon- day morning. The deputation in- cluded Mayor Bowman, Reeve Jack- son, Deputy-Reeve Deverell, Frank L. Mason, of Oshawa, and Town En- gineer H. L. Pringle. The Council felt that there would be no difficulty in provinb to the sat. isfaction of Mr. Ellis that the unem- ployment situation in Whitby now is unusual, in which event the town could qualify in the matter of secur- ing grants of twenty-five per cent. from the Dominion and Provincial governments for any new work which might be decided upon for the winter. e special committee will carry on and report further to the Council. The committee also reported prog- ress in the matter of asking the Federal Government to undertake certain improvement work at Whitby Harbor. The committee will report back to Council in a few days. Council passed a by-law to borrow from the bank the sum of $11,959.43 to pay for water main construction carried on as a relief measure by the Public Utility Commission. The sale of debentures for this amount is deferred for the present. A letter from the Oshawa City Council advised that the City of Oshawa would be pleased to co-op- erate and do what it could towards having an air port established in Whitby. The letter was in reply to a resolution sent to Oshawa some time ago.
