FAG, for instance Hust rates one point wn this department Although the City can be extra generous (when fhe wood moves 8) in the sale of land, i is rarely the res cighent of such generosity when it goes out 16 buy land, The item in question was a recommendation from the Soerd of Works that Cound] accept an offer from North Shore (the president of which is John E. Wares, city ssbdivider lawyer) to sell 2.64 acres of land on Philip Murray avenue for $10.600 the City Counc Council peqguiiesed ~~ 0 the city paid out approx imately $307 an seve for this wnservieed farmiend which is te be used as an S extension of Philip Murrey avenue between Park and Stevenson roads EAs part of the same des! ? for the extension of the rord--Genersl Motors dis- \ posed of some property (0 the city in 1960 af the ex~ treme south end of the GM south plant 1.2 meres was given by OM free and an additional 1.2 acres sold #t # total price of $3600 There has been consider - able bickering on Council ALD, BRA] in bygone months over the sdvissbility of spending this sum for the extension of Philip Murray ayenue, Chairman. Walter Branch of the Board of Works says that the price on the Harris land was approved afier a survey of the site by George A, Lister, a Toronto land appraiser who is well known for his work on Ontario Hydro projects, Branch says that the 2.45 acres knifes right through the Harris property (he also holds land on the north and south sides of the road) and that it is necessary for the road's extension ss two nearby transport com-~ panies (Charlton and Direct-Winters) would have no exit without such & road because of the work being done on the nesrby CNR bridge City Assessor Eldon Kerr says that the land could easily be re-zoned to residential as there are services nearby When the matter was discussed in Council last year, Mayor Christine Thomas (then an alderman) said that she couldn't see any need for such a road at that time and that it didn't lead anywhere in particular, Mr, Branch said thet it would provide an access to the south end of the eity from Stevenson road AIR POLLUTION BYLAW NEEDED City Council has a tough job, In its highly-commendable fight to keep the lax hike down to three mills, Council took out the big axe and lopped off a $7000 item that could have repercus~ sions, This had te do with a proposed bylaw for the estab» lishment here of air pollution eontrol laws with teeth in them, also for the appointment of a part-time air pollu~ tion control officer, Therein lies a sad story ~ the bylaw was drafted only after long and painful research (14 months of it) by several people, including members of the city health department, and the Division of Air Pollution Control of the Department of Public Health, Queen's Park (that sent down smoke evaluators and canisters for fallout tests before making a chemical analysis of Oshawa's air), The 1060 Council gave the green light for such & sur vey after repeated complaints from various parts of the city stressing need for alr pollution control, The health department has been carrying on as hest it ean, in the absence of effective curb laws, but its vole is a pretty hopeless one under the present sei» up, As an example, the eity made 26 investigations in 1060, but this does not begin to reflect the true number of complaints, which totalled many times 26, Don't be surprised if the clamor grows loud for Council to have another look at the proposed bylaw. Oshawa urgently needs such a law, not only for to- flay, but for tomorrow, to safeguard the health (and property) of its eitizens, For instance, California will soon make it manda~ tory for all cars to be equipped with exhaust afterburn- ers to eliminate obnoxious and poisonous gases, Other states are planning similar legislation, OLD KAISER HOME TO DISAPPEAR Coulter Mfg, Co, Lid, and Sklar Furniture Lid both located at 30 Richmond street west == have not yet taken out building permits for properties in Industrial Park that they purchased from the city in 1060 and 1060, This would indicate that they will not be building there this year , , , An Oshawa landmark will be des molished next week = the former home of the late Dr, Thomas BE, Kaiser at 45 King street east (at the corner of Albert) now used as a taxi office, The site will be used for a 40-car parking lot , , , , Chairman Sam Jackson, Jr, of the Oshawa Harbor Commission has blossomed out this spring in a svelte, glamor~boy figure, down more than 36 pounds from last year, Sam makes no secret of his success formula for those who would shed excess poundage = eat all you want, but eat only the right food and at meal times , , , Terence V, Kelly, the Oshawa lawyer recently attended the two-day meet ing of the Canadian Football Association in Vancouver, He says the hig news is that the CFA will bring the famous soccer team known as Real Madrid from Spain in August toe Toronte for an exhibition tilt against a Toronto district team, The Spanish team is generally regarded as the greatest soccer aggregation ever assembls 'REPORT FROM PARLIAMENT Exports And Housing.

The president's message to Congress--where parts of it are! certain to meet strong opposi-| tion--contains as hasic policy the statement thet American arms "will never he used to strike the first blow in any at tack." While this is hardly new, Kennedy goes a step further hy saying that US. military plan ning therefore must deal "with that portion of our forees which woud survive the initial at tack."
