2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Mondey, Merch 5, 1962 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN MORE NOTES ON CITY'S LAND SALES POLICY As we were saying previously -- the City's land sales policy is noticeably lax in some cases. Buyers are sold land at low figures, then fail to keep up with the mortgage principal payments. The land is not re-claimed when these mortgages mature and the payments are sadly in arrears (sometimes as much as five years) -- instead, a new mortgge is drawn up with the same parties at slightly higher terms, and the transaction continues on. The City appears to be letting too much of this property slip out of its hands without a reasonable return -- the sad part of it is that these same properties are yearly increasing greatly in value. Aside from this, the City is constantly talking about buying new properties (for instance, $50,000 will be needed soon for a new cemetery site). Speaking along the same lines,Rudolph D. Frastacky, Toronto, had some second thoughts regarding the City's recent mortgage renewal offer (which we were most certain he would). As a result, he will pay off half the mortgage principal of $30,866 owing on 33 acres of Industrial Park land on the old five-year mortgage that matured last May (unknown to City Hall), Frastacky will get a new three-year mortgage (at seven per cent instead of five) on the balance. The City will also grant a discharge of mortgage to the purchaser (Motor City Beverages) of one acre of Frastacky's land. Motor City will pay $4,000 for this acre at Farewell and Wentworth (described as '"'prime industrial land'). The cost to Frastacky of this land per acre was not immediately available as there were more than one trans- action between himself and the City involving land purchases and hte costs varied -- the best estimate seems to be about $1,200 per acre. Under the new agreement, Frastacky must have 80 per cent of the property under use by factories (or for factory purposes) by 1965, or the City can buy it back at $1,200 an acre. Mr. Frastacky must know full. well that the City won't be too exacting on these terms. The recently-concluded five- year mortgage proves that. The Frastacky mortgage is one of two held by the City. The other is with Principal Investments Ltd. which agreed to purchase 33.92 acres from the City (between Stevenson's and Thornton roads north of King street west) for $51,180 May 30, 1956, paying down $16,000 on the principal. Principal Investments was to pay $2,500 annually, plus interest of 54% per cent, on the balance of the mortgage principal of $35,180 which matured last year. There was still a mortgage principal of $30,000 remaining last May, so City Council, on the recommendation of the City finance committee, extended the mortgage to Principal In- vestments last December 18, 1961. Under the new mortgage, Principal Investment agreed to pay $6,000 annually on May 30 for. five years, 1962-66, inclusive, with an interest rate of 7 per cent, annually, to wipe out its indebtedness to the City of $30,000. It's another example of City Council's sometimes over- generous policies when dealing with lands bought with the tax- payers' money. CITY HALL DOORS SWING BACK Signs of municipal progress -- the doors of the Oshawa Industrial Commission were opened to the press for the first time since its inception back in 1956 at the regular monthly meeting last Wednesday. . . . Judge Alex Hall of County Court is scheduled to hear 32 appeal cases (starting Monday) from the City's two-year re-assessment campaign completed in 1961. One case concerns a $4,000,000 appeal involving Prin- cipal Investments and other firms in the Oshawa Shopping Centre. ... The Air Transport Board has authorized Nordair Airlines to serve Hamilton, but it cannot operate direct non-stop service between Montreal and Hamilton and Wind- sor and Hamilton. LITTLE NOTES FROM HERE AND THERE Senator David A. Croll, guest speaker at the recent 'Brotherhood Week dinner here, writes an Oshawa friend: "The meeting gave me a great deal of pleasure in renewing old acquaintances and making some new ones and generally indicated to me that there was a fine morale and spirit in the city, which could well be a guide in Canada'"' . net operating deficit of the Preston Memorial Auditorium dur- ing 1961 was $538. A total of $30,419 has been spent on new equipment. in five years. . . . One of the models recently at the Fashion Show conducted by the Ladies' Auxiliary of Local 222, UAW-CLC was Mrs. Fred Malloy, whose husband is better known as chairman of the Oshawa Industrial Com- mission and a member of the Oshawa Harbor Commission. . .. The next big elections upcoming in the political world of Local 222 will be March 12, 13 and 14 -- delegates will be accepted to the UAW convention in Atlantic City and the Trades and Labor Congress convention in Vancouver -- also, the chairman and top negotiating committee will be selected. CITY SHOULD ATTEND NORDAIR HEARING City Hall has been religiously silent of late about its upcoming plans, if any, for that April 16 Air Trans- port Board hearing in Ottawa, which will have to do with Nordair's application for what is laughingly refer- red to as "a temporary suspension" of its Oshawa serv- ice. Has City Hall adopted the official attitude that the Nordair chapter is undisputably closed, that it would be futile, therefore, to make any formal representations at the April 16 public tribunal? Such a short-sighted attitude could sound the death knell of a regular air passenger service for many years to come, It is important that the City's side of the Nordair story be firmly imprinted on the official record for future reference, regardless if Nordair drops out of the local picture (as it is almost certain to do). It is important that at least one effective spokesman appear before the Board. Roland G. Lafrancois, the company's vice-president, admitted that Nordair's services here were inadequate. City Council should remember one important fact. Time is running out on its Nordair representations -- the Board has set March 9 as the deadline for the filing of submissions. That's just around the corner. Plan To Combat | | { | WASHINGTON (AP) -- The 'chief U.S. disarmament negoti- ator says the West will insist that any nuclear test ban treaty with the Soviet Union include a system of cross-inspection to guard against secret test prep- \arations. | William C. Foster, who will head the U.S. team at the Ge- conference! controls neva disarmament |scheduled to begin March 14, said the West would not be pre- jpared to take Soviet Premier iKhrushchev's word that Russia would not test again. "A number of inspectors" would have to be stationed in 'Shot By Polic Convict Dies, Had No Gun ' | MONTREAL (CP) -- Roger Ducharme, an escaped convict |who, police said, forced rela- itives to hide him for nearly a month before stepping into a po- lice trap Saturday night, died in | hospital Sunday night of a gun- 'shot wound in the head. e, Tests In: Secret the Soviet Union, Foster said. "Early in the game... we would want American inspect- ors, as they, I presume, would want Soviet inspectors." Foster, who heads the new jarms control and disarmament agency, spoke in a television in- jterview. He discounted reports that the West would offer looser than those proposed last year. 5 | Foster said the West would jcontinue to oppose the system of self-inspection urged by the |Soviet Union, However, he said the West is ready to discuss "some adjustment" in interna- tional or bilateral inspections. Reports circulated in London Sunday that the West was be- lieved ready to offer Russia a test ban agreement with looser |controls than those in the treaty proposed by the West last year. Because many tests could be detected from outside Russia, |The Sunday Times said, "the |West may ... be prepared to |consider fewer control posts in {Soviet and Western territory, and to place greater emphasis on verification of results re- ported by instruments at home." PETERBOROUGH (CP) Police say they believe the $232,- 900 in cash and negotiable bonds taken in the armed robbery of a Havelock, Ont., bank last sum- mer may still be hidden in bush in the area. One police officer working on the case said Friday the opinion is based on the fact that none of the $145,000 in bonds and secu- rities has appeared on the mar- ket. Police have close bonds. No reward has been posted for the recovery of the loot, a bonding company spokesman said recently. But he said that anyone finding the money would receive 'full consideration." Last Aug. 31, four men hid overnight in the basement of a branch of the Toronto-Dominion bank in Havelock, 25 miles northeast of here. When the manager and staff arrived the following morning, they were) held up at gunpoint and $232,000) in cash and bonds was taken. TOOK TO BUSH The men escaped in a car but later ran into a provincial police maintained a watch for the missing Ducharme, 30, was shot by a detective on the sidewalk out- Personal View roadblock about 30 miles to the |north. They abandoned the car jand took to the bush in the Coe! side an east-end flat where. he had held a family of in - laws hostage under a threat of death. A spokesman for the Montreal Neurological Institute said an operation was performed on Du- charme Saturday night but he died without regaining con- sciousness. Police were acting on a tip from an anonymous informer when they shot him outside the apartment of his sister-in-law. Police said he _ continually threatened the two adults and one young child in the apart- ;ment and always kept one of the three in the apartment as a hos- tage. They withheld the names }of the family. | Ducharme and his sister-in- jlaw were apparently on the way to a store to buy provisions when a five-man police squad moved in. A shout by one of the jofficers diverted Ducharme's attention and the woman broke away. When Ducharme made a sud- den movement, police though he was going for a pistol and jopened fire. A search later |showed he was unarmed. Ducharme was sentenced to 14 years Jan. 19 for the attempted murder of a policeman in a street gunbattle following a jholdup attempt.

Ir Back AcHes Try A KipNEY Havelock Booty Thought In Bush Four days after the robbery, five Montreal men were ar- rested. One died later in jail of a heart attack but the other four were charged with armed ob- bery. The trial of the four men ended Saturday and Judge A. R. Wilmott said he will deliver judgment today. Three provincial police de- tachments have been working on the holdup, one of the largest among Canadian robberies. The biggest Canadian robbery was carried out between May 3-4, 1958, when $3,350,000 was stolen from vaults of the Brock- ville Trust and Savings Com- pany in Brockville. OTHER BIG ROBBERIES There have been three other million-dollar robberies, two in Quebec and one in Ontario. On Jan. 13-14, 1957, $1,100,000 was taken from safety-deposit boxes from a Bank of Montreal branch in Outremont, Que. On Jan. 25-26, 1958, in Mont- real, $1,800,000 in negotiable bonds was taken from a vault of La Caisse Nationale d'Econo- mie, banking subsidiary of La Societe Nationale de Fiducie, a Montreal trust company. On Feb. 1, 1959, thieves stole nearly $1,000,000 from vaults and safety deposit boxes at the Premier Trust Company in St. Catharines. Other major robberies include $300,000 in bonds and nealy $10,000 in cash taken from a branch of the Royal Bank of Canada in Bath, Ont., Aug. 20, 1945; Bonds and securities valued at $299,752 taken from 71 saf- ety-deposit boxes at a Bank of Nova Scotia branch in Carp, Ont., July 30, 1947; Bonds and securities worth $230,000 taken from safety-de- posit boxes of a Bank of Nova Scotia branch at Maxville Ont., Nov. 11, 1948.
