WHITBY And DISTRICT | Grass Fire amg SS FIRE IN WHITBY Burns Over Town Field On Saturday afternoon a light- ed match was thrown in the wrong place and at the wrong time to start a grass fire that occupied the Whitby Fire Depart- ment for over two hours. The fire, located at about half mile south of Dundas street west at Annes street and Bell drive, was fanned by southerly and easterly winds which bellow- ed the flames through knee high s towards Dundas street and Bell drive. Firefighters were able to use water in the early stages of the blaze but changing winds steer- ed the flames out of range of the hoses and they were forced to #% u% corn brooms As the fire raged on at a rapid rate, 10 houses on Bell dri were threatened until firemen| started a backfire to ease the situation. | Firefighters regarded the fi as an annual event as for the pa | three years, fires have started in the same locale The land is owned by a ronto development company.

However since any legislation along the lines submitted in the recommendations will not directly affect 95 per cent of the present taxpayers in town, the reason is obvious why there aren't any comments. Any legislation which would put one group of citizens sub- servient or dependent upon an- other is in my estimation, poor legislation. The proposal as out- lined in the article would require a subdivider of land for residen- 'tial purposes to seek the good graces of an industrial company and to kow-tow to the company president and its directors, in order to acquire an assignment from them for dollars of their assessment Such legislation would open additional avenues for illicit and fraudulent deal- ings. | | The proposal also suggests that| a subdivider may, on his own, |attract industry into this town. In other words, he may act as an unappointed Industrial Com- mission. It is common knowledge in this town that we have an Industrial Commission who are presumably better qualified and know the inner secrets of the town more so than the subdivid- er: Why mess up the status quo of the appointed and elected bodies? Suppose for argument's sake, an owner of land within the town limits did cause an industry to locate within the town. He would |immediately be entitled to sub- divide his land notwithstanding| such factors as feasibility and| economy of such a development, as far as the town is concerned.
