Austerity, to put it frankly, is not a popular word in Oshawa's high municipal circles. There was a reminder of this several months ago when Alderman Norman Down stood up in his quiet, reasonable way and complained: "1¢ we don't do something to curb our municipal spending soon, we're going to be in serious trouble over our debenture debt which is now something around $20,000,000." What prompted Mr, Down's mild outburst was the fact TORONTO (CP)--The general synod of the Anglican Church of Canada will be faced with a strong move to approve remar- riage of divorced persons when it meets in Vancouver in 1965. Long a point of debate in the church, the subject received a big push Wednesday when re- marriage was overwhelmingly endorsed by the Toronto dio- cese, the church's largest dio- cese in Canada. Only about 20 of more than 500 delegates at the annual sy- nod meeting of the diocese op- posed a' resolution calling for liberal ch in controversial that plans were rapidly advancing on Council for a prop $480,000 annex to Hillsdale Manor (home for the aged), cost of which would be shared on a 50-50 basis by the City and. the Department of Welfare, Queen's Park. Mr. Down didn't say that the Hillsdale annex (to house 100) was not needed. There is too much evidence to the contrary. What he said, in effect, was this: The City should be looking for ways to curb spending and here was an opportunity. Why would it not be possible for the City to have some senior citizens housed in private homes instead of in the Manor? Such a plan had worked DOWN BIN out well in a Northern Ontario City and had saved the muni- cipality much money. Would it not be worth a try here, especially on the eve of 1963 which was to be a tough one financially for the City? Thus the annex could be delayed until the financial picture was better. Mr. Down kept on advocating this proposal in committee and outside; but it was easy to see that he was fighting for a lost cause. An alderman can only hold out so long against such impossible odds; then he tosses in the towel and joins the "yes" group. Mr. Down, a former mayor, didn't have anything at all to say on the subject Monday night when Chairman Cecil Bint of the Committee of Management for Hillsdale Manor, stood up and requested City Solicitor Edward G. McNeely to prepare the necessary bylaw for the $240,000 Hillsdale annex (which is the City's share). Other committee members are Alderman Albert V. Walker, John G. Brady, Norman Down and John Dyer. It will take the Legal Department about two weeks to get the bylaw ready when it will be presented to Council. If it gets two readings, and there is no reason to believe otherwise, it will be sent to the Ontario Municipal Board for approval; then it will be given a third reading and construction can start. The Manor is exclusively for Oshawa residents. When the City decided to build it in 1960 at a cost of $1,200,000 (on a 50-50 cost with the Department of Welfare) the Committee of Management went all out insofar as engaging a top-flight, big name architect, John B. Parkin and Associates of Toronto. Not only was the Parkin firm assigned to do much of the architectural work on Toronto's $28,000,000-odd City Hall, it was one of the top prestige firms coast to coast in Canada's architectural world. When the aforementioned Committee of Management made plans for the proposed Hillsdale annex, the same archi- tectural firm was retained, John B. Parkin and Associates; it has also done considerable work for Oshawa's Board of Education, including the Oshawa Central Collegiate (for which design it once won a Gold Medal) and several other schools. : As an indication of the need for the new Hillsdale an- nex -- the Oshawa General Hospital board of directors recent- ly waived their right for one year to a $100,000 grant from the City so that this sum could be allocated to the Manor. The hospital governors feel that the new annex will help ease their bed shortage. Mr. Bint is hopeful that construction can start late this Summer and that the City can take advantage of the Winter Works Program. The Manor, opened in October, 1960, is cur- rently at capacity with 202 residents -- capacity is actually 196, but staff space has been utilized to fill the gap. Mr. Bint says more than 60 applicants are now waiting admission. The need for an annex has been established, as stated previous, but this argument only holds because Council totally disregarded Mr. Down's plea that an investigation be made of his private homes proposal. Mr. Down is understandably alarmed about the City's financial picture, but he is only ene man (insofar as the Hills- dale annex is concerned) and one man can't achieve much in Council alone in the way of getting an Austerity Program on its feet. Mayor Lyman Gifford has learned this; so has Alderman Clifford Pilkey on occasion when he has set out boldly to chop down a big debenture proposal only to discover that he was bucked by too many colleagues who, to put it mildly, are simply not interested in Austerity. HOME-MADE PLANE ON DISPLAY John Black has been elected to the Political Action com- mittee of Local 222, UAW-CLC. He formerly served seven years on the Local's pension board and six years as executive treasuret. He was also on the Canadian UAW Council four years... . Mr. Kerz Nawrot of 131 Verdun road will display his home-made $1,200 airplane in the big air show at the Oshawa airport Saturday, June 15, the day before the Oshawa Flying Club's Fly-in Breakfast. It is a Corbin Baby Ace and was built in his basement. It will be the first home-built aircraft to compete in the national competition for the Gover- nor-General's Air Cup display. It has a maximum speed of 85 miles per hour. 'lregions, Windsor,London, Ham- Canon 27 dealing with divorced persons, Anglican bishops are not per- mitted to sanction remarriage of divorced persons. The proposed change in the canon would give every bishop power to examine cases of civil divorce and determine whether there was an "ecclesiastical im- pediment" which made the) marriage null and void in the eyes of the church. No Excitement In Alberta's Vote Campaign EDMONTON (CP) Six months ago prospects of an Al- berta general election sparked feverish activity among al] ma- jor political parties, Since Premier E, C. Manning set June 17 as the election date political activity has produced little excitement. The Social Credit government has campaigned on its record after doing a concerted grass-| roots rebuilding job in the last eight months. The Liberal, Progressive Con. servative and New Democratic parties have fired short blasts at the government while their Some of the impediments were listed as: Mistake as to the identity of either party, insanity, mental deficiency, faiiure to have reached the age of puberty, sex- ual perversion or undisclosed venereal, disease, impotence, bigamy, concurrent contract in- consistent with the marriage, fraud, coercion or duress. Rev. H. R. Howden of Thorn- hill said the proposed change will enable a priest to give aid to those needing help rather than closing the door on them and will lead to a fuller mean- ing of marriage. The session was also told that union between the Anglican Church and the United Church of Canada still is very much a live issue. Rt. Rev. F. H. Wilkinson, Anglican Bishop. of Toronto, dis- missed as sheer nonsense a United Church leader's claim that union between the two is a dead issue, Dr. H. W. Vaughan, secretary jof the United Church's board of lcolleges and secondary schools, |told a United Church conference lin Waterloo last week that talks have broken down because there is no machinery to effect union. |NEEDS PERSISTENCE Bishop Wilkinson said persist- ent efforts are required ifa basis for union is to be reached, but he deplored contentions that progress is not being made. The ecumenical affairs recom- mended the continuation of talks on union with the United and Presbyterian churches.

J, Bolsby said that in no sense, according to the dictionary, were the games held occasionally, as is per- mitted religious organizations under the Criminal Code. He said that the church, Sts.

Allan Hernelius, chairman of the board of the International Press Institute said most of the world today has access only to news selected and slanted by governments. IPI Director Rohan Rivett said protests concerning press freedom' were sent last year to four governments -- West Ger- many, Brazil, Ghana and South Korea, The IPI expressed its "very great concern" to the Bonn gov- ernment during police raids on the magazine Der Spiegel and made representations to Brazil over discriminatory treatment against an'American correspon- dent, Rivett said. The institute also protested against death sentences passed upon three Korean newspaper executives. The forced closmg of the Ashanti Pioneer in Ghana was "perhaps the saddest single event in the year" among IPI member newspapers, he said. It followed a "series of gov- ernment actions which culmi- nated in putting many scores of newspaper workers with famil- jes out of employment," he said, Warm Weather Continues Friday | Forecasts issued by the wea- |ther office at 5 a.m.: Synopsis: Cooler air that has |pushed down from the Hudson Bay region into Northern Onta- rio is expected to reach central regicns of the province today.
