His honor said that although there was an element of unfairness in the fact that the Chief was required to work nights while the force was lack- ing a night constable. There was no contract calling for over- time pay. His Honor dismissed the Chat- terley action, with costs, if the town demands them, and ruled that $151.32 paid into the court by the corporation, representing the Chief's last two weeks' pay on the force, should be turned over to Mr. Chatterley. In his evidence to the court, Chatterley, now a sergeant for the Pinkerton Detective Agency, said that on March 12, 1960, the second man on his force, who served as night constable, re- signed, leaving him alone on the force until April 22 of that same year. EVENING HOURS On March 21, of that year, | he said, he had met with the town's public protection com- mittee of council and had sug- gested that the hours of 3 p.m. to 5.30 p.m., 7.30 p.m. to 9.30 p.m. and 11.30 p.m. to 3.30 a.m. required the most police work. During the six weeks he was alone, he said, he pursued regu- lar patrols during those hours) and was also available for call 24 hours per day, seven days per week. On many occasions, he said, he was called out at other hours on complaints. chapter. Pupil at the school, | photo included Mrs. M.

Table Reply On Former Chief Denied Claim For Overtime His contract, which came into effect on Jan. 1, 1956, stated that he was to work the day shift. He resigned from the force, he said, on June 27, and left on June 30. He said that he did not receive pay for those last two weeks nor had he received any overtime pay for the six weeks mentioned earlier, He wrote two letters to coun- cil, he said, and later on advice of his counsel, had revised his request for overtime pay to $200. His June two weeks pay, he said, was set at $166.67, plus $7.40 for telephone, which, after income tax and hospitalization left a net pay of $151.32. Early in August, he said, he received a letter from Willard Gregg, QC, town solicitor, stat- ing that he could pick up $151.32 for his extra duty pay from March 12 to April 22 but two weeks later a further let- ter from the solicitor explained that an error was made and the $151.32 represented his last two weeks' pay. On Nov. 21, the town paid $151.32 into the court for the last two weeks' pay, the amount claimed by the former chief. RECEIVED IN 1959 Chatterley told the court that during a similar six-week pe- riod, in 1959, he had worked alone and had received $200 in overtime pay. Councillor Arnold Tipper, chairman of the town's protec- tion committee, said that the committee did not intend to pay any overtime during the six- week period and never inti- mated to the chief that they in- tended to do so. In fact, he said, the chief was given names of three Uxbridge men who would be available for night watchman work during the period the chief was alone, in order that no overtime would be necessary for the chief. He said that Mr. Gregg's first letter was so worded be- cause of a misunderstanding. In passing judgment, His Honor commented on the police- council situation in Uxbridge which had been hinted at dur- SYMPATHY FOR CHIEF "I have some sympathy for the chief who carried on when he felt that he was not being taken into the full confidence of the committee on public protec- tion," he said. "I feel the com- mittee was trying to bring to a conclusion a situation between the two parties and this is shown by their ready accept- ance of his resignation." His Honor noted that the Police Act requires that a Chief Constable give 30 days' notice of quitting, an agreement, but in this case, the town accepted notice of three days. He also noted that Chief Chat- terley had first asked for $450 for his 41 days overtime but later revised this to $200 which he had bee paid by the council in 1959 for a similar period. "However, the council and the Chief were not on the same relaticnshin in 1960 as they were in 1959," said His Honor. "One council cannot be bound by an- other council except by by- law." His Honor found, reading the minutes of the meeting of the committee of March 21, that the committee did not intend to pay overtime. WAS UNFAIRNESS He said there was an ele- ment of unfairness in that the Chief was asked to work nights when his contract stated that he was to work the day shift. But, he said, between two in- dividuals the situation might be viewed differently than between a council and a police chief. They, he said, are bound by the Municipal Act and the Police Act with a clearly written agreement. "I find that there is here no contract to pay the Chief for additional services," he said. "I feel that there was some inconsistency in the two coun- cils of those two years which might have led the plaintiff to feel that he might be treated differently," said His Honor. Chatterley was represented by Thomas Harris, of Port Perry and the corporation was repre- sented by R. D. Humphreys, QC, ing the trial. of Oshawa. Many members and friends {gathered at the Whitby Baptist Church on the evening of June 16 for the service of Induction for the new pastor, Rev. John McLeod. Rev. McLeod and fam- ily have recently come from Fallingbrook Heights Baptist Church, Toronto. Mr. Dudley Wilson, chairman of the Whitby Baptist Deacons' Board, was in charge of the service.

The committee, which held its meeting on June 14 recommend- ed that: Alterations to the cages in the dog pound should and could be made that four new spaces would be available for the dogs. The chairman also stated that there should be a runway for the dogs on the pound property. | The committee recommended that the work mentioned be done under the supervision of the chairman and also that the building be painted at a total cost for the work not to exceed $100. His Worship Mayor Martin stated that the town engineer, the chief constable and he had Trespasser To Be Examined Pleading guilty to a charge of trespassing at night, George Tweedie, of Greenwood, was re- manded one week for psychi. atric examination by Magistrate R. B. Dnieper in Whitby Police Court on Tuesday. Tweedie was caught by George Moore of Pickering Township, peeking through the window of Moore's daughter's bedroom. He hid behind a tree while looking into the girl's room. Crown Attorney Bruce Affleck requested that Tweedie be re- manded in custody for a mental examination. Magistrate Dnieper agreed and said: "It would be in the interest of the boy's future to have the help of whatever expert is at the Crown's disposal." SPCA MEETING The annual meeting of the On- tario Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, Whitby and district Branch, will be held tonight at 8:15 in All Saints' New Parish Hall.
