2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thuredey, April 16, 1964 GOOD EVENING _- By JACK GEARIN _ 3 HEALTH INSPECTORS SEEN "BARE MINIMUM" __ Dr, J, E, Watt, supervisor, Sanitation, P Environmental P of Health, had this to say in his latest, quarterly re released April 15: ws "A third health inspector, Frank Sebastian, has joined our staff and fills a most definite need. Three inspec- tors are absolutely the mini- mum required if any rea- sonable program is to be Carried out. . . . It is hoped | that the overall level of sani- 'tation in ail types of eating ' establishments can be im creased through more fre- quent visits and more string- emt enforcement of existing legislation, Approval for li- censing of 45 eating estab- lishments were withheld by this department as of Janu- DR. WATT ary 1, 1964. Twenty-six have since been approved, but 19 'Such premises still are without required licensing, as are 7 'private halls, 1 cafeteria, 6 church halls, 2 bakeries, and 1 her shop. The question of premises operating without dicensing, and who is responsible for legal action in such cases, need consideration.' Dr. Watt added that improper garbage storage and hand- ling was still a major problem ('even a casual survey of any area will readily illustrate why," he said. 'Aside from. the heaith aspects, the lack of community pride demonstrated in this regard by numerous business operators and private home owners is appalling."

It makes one feel so conspicuously lonesome to aboard with only five or six passengers, somewhat like alone in the Imperial Room at the Royal York after last guest has departed, the music stopped."; . Presi- Jan Drygala of the United Council of Veterans' Associa- of Oshawa and Districi has pointed out that this De- ent omitted the name of the General W. Sikorski Polish Veterans' Association April 9 when listing member or- zations of the UCVA. Sorry, Jan. . . . There will be an open meeting of City Council Monday night, under the lights on the fifth floor. BUDGET ITEM OF $77,664 EXPLAINED Municipal budgets can be confusing, even for City alder- men supposedly fluent in interpreting such matters. Take the City 1964 Fire Department budget affecting Ad- ministration, as outlined on page 89. Any casual reader of the budget will notice the Fire Department has budgeted $77,664 this year for Administra- tion as compared with $71,494 budgeted last year and $28,817 actually spent. Why did the department hike its estimated Administra- tion budget $48,847 in a single year Three or four aldermen contacted were anxious to help, but they didn't know the answer, and they said so -- finally, one of them contacted City Treasurer I. Frank Markson, busy preparing the amended budget, who said the answer could be found on page 90. The bulk of the $48,847 increase -- $42,000 -- was charged to Employee Benefits. under Administration (Superannuation Fund, Group Life Insurance). No amount is shown under '1963 actual" for such Em- ployee Benefits because they were lumped together under another classification. Mr. Markson, who has institued far more statistical detail in this year's budget than hitherto, understandably did not include a breakdown of the Employee Benefits for 1963; to do so would be too time-consuming. Administration represents only a small segment of the total Fire Department budget (the 1964 estimated is $733,751, @s compared with $598,591 actual in 1963) but it is important to have such points explained, especially for the unitiated. COLLEGIATE PLANT MAINTENANCE UP Speaking of the increasing cost of Education: The 1964 budget of the Oshawa Board of Education under the heading, 'Expenditures -- Collegiate -- Plant Mainten- ance" shows a 1964 budget of $122,118,000 (estimated) as com- pared with an estimated 1963 budget of $63,583 and an actual 1963 bulget of $53,437. The biggest single increase under this heading is under the heading, 'Upkeep of Grounds", which shows a 1964 esti- mated budget of $30,970 as compared with last year's esti- mate of $2,830 and last year's actual budget of $1,123.76. The Board's 1964 budget -- under the heading, "Expendi- tures; Collegiate -- Plant Operation'? -- shows a much smail- er increase. The 1964 estimate is $139,188 as compared with @ 1953 estimate of $138,603 and a 1963 actual of $133,028.25. Under "Collegiate Expenditures -- Administration" for 1964, the Board has earmarked $62,933 as its estimated bud- get -- this compares with as compared with an estimated 1963 budget of $53,789 and an actual 1963 budget of $53,243.81. There was a sharp upswing in budget, also, for "Expendi- tures -- Collegiate" under heading of "Plant Maintenance' -- the 1964 budget. for this will be $122,118 as compared wih the 1963 estimated budget of $63,583 and the 1963 actual amount spent of $53,437.23. Repairs to Buildings also represents a sizeable increase-- $50,371 is the estimated 1964 budget as compared with the 1963 estimate of $34,319 and the 1963 actual of $30,206.30. NEAR-EMPTY 40-FOOT DIESEL BUS STIRS PROTEST SPECIAL MEMO TO PUC (BUS DIVISION): Your new super-colossal bus -- the 40-foot, 55-passenger Diesel job -- may be running at capacity at peak periods, but there's another side to the story.

He boarded one of your regular Bi-passenger gasoline buses on Simcoe street north around 7:30 a.m. Tuesday southbound to his job. He didn't mind the overcrowding until he looked behind and saw the new Diesel trailing with exactly three passengers aboard. The Diesel continued on down to the Lake when his. bus turned off at Bloor enroute to GM. Would it not be more economical to run the Diesel gouth- bound to GM at this period? ; Sgt.

Mr. Jodoin, in Montreal for a CLC executive committee meet- ing, said in a statement that the New Democratic Party member from Port Arthur, "failed to show respect" for the labor movement in Canada, Mr. Fisher suggested in the House Tuesday that his party could break with organized la- bor unless the CLC spoke out against what he called the "un- conditional surrender" on the Great Lakes. He was criticizing the han- dling by government-appointed trustees of the union troubles on the lakes. Mr. Jodoin said the CLC had "at all times been extremely careful not to interfere in the affairs of the NDP." "It is unfortunate that Mr. Fisher failed to show the same respect for the labor move- ment," he said. "His attempt to inject him- self into labor matters by using his privileged position in the House of Commons to offer gratuitious advice as to what the CLC should do in conven- tion is a demonstration of reck- less irresponsibility which con- tributes absolutely nothing to} the present situation," The OL, he said, had Banks, pre orders to 'My Job To Cut Down Violence--Hal Banks four hours in the witness box, including two hours of cross-ex-/ amination.
