Children's Safety The pavement of Ray street was opposed by Ald, Swanson on several grounds, one of which appealed most to hiy fellow aldermen was the possibility ' that the opening up of that street for automotive traffic would divert large numbers of Gen-' eral Motors employees cars to the network of streets, near the King street scy0nl with consequent danger to the children, | While the consensus of the alder- men seemed to favor future develop- | ment of the street, conditions at the border, and drive! area for its executive and office staffs he given the matter. Ald. Bradley, | with the 'safety of school children | n mind, suggested that the schools of Oshawa should arrange their' schedules so that pupils colild be, turned out for the moon hour some minutes previous to 12 o'clock. Ald. | Swanson suggested 11.45 a.m., as the proper hour. Mayor Preston, in the committee "of the whole of which Ald.

While Ald. 'Swanson opposed the pavement of Ray street as suggest- ed, he was strongly in favor of ex- tending the pavement on Bond street from Church to Mechanic by a cross pavement to connect with King street, and his suggestion met with approval, Ald. J. W. Perry was strongly in favor of the pavement program. "I don't believe we should be so tight in this matter," he declared when some suggestions were thrown out that part of the program out- lined could be cared for by levelling and gravel, Ald. P. A. Macdopald declared Ray street impassible for most months of the year and suggested that Osl- awa's development required the pavement 'of that street without de- ay. ' Ald. George Hart, chairman of the Works Committee, urged his fel- low aldermen to consider the traffic situation fn the city and the con- stant danger to which pedestrians-- children In particular--are sub- jected at the peak hours of street use. Division street at Bond was described by him as one of the worst traffic centers in the city. Mr. Hart also urged the aldemen not to con- sider temporary improvements to the streets mentioned, for while the initial outlay might be less, carrying charges would be higher and no real improvement made. He cited the fact that the upkeep of pavement on Ray street, as proposed, would be only $113 a year, while gravel im- provement would approximate $200 year, and that any material placed there this fall would probably have disappeared in the spring. The Council approved the widen- ing of Simcoe street south belween Athol and Bagot streets by four feet. Motion being made by Ald. Hart EYESIGHT SPECIALIST. than Uptown Office, 6 King 34.9.

More Signals City Engineer Smith, reporting on traffic conditions, outlined plans (at other important cormers of tho city, the cost of which would be only a few hundred dollars each now that the control system has been instal- led. He declared that the automatic signal has proved of great value in regulating traffic in Oshawa. Motion to defray the city magis- trate's expenses to a recent conven- tion of Ontario magistrates at King- ston. up to $50, was made by Ald. Bradley, seconded by Ald. Harmon. {and carried. A motion by Ald. Perry seconded by Ald. Marks, that William street be paved to the easters limits of the ly. #nd thus conmect up with Oshawa Boulevard was vps by . Swanson who declared his opin- fon that the motion once before but defeated. Ald, Perry insistent that the matter was being presented for the first time, but it was decided to refer the mat- ter to the Board of Works for a report, Ald. Macdonald and Ald. Sterling supported Ald. claring that the paving of the street is not only in the public interest but a matter of urgency if land which can be bought at a reasonable price now is not to be disposed of in some other way. Ald, Hart, replying to Ald. Swan- son's question as to whether any- thing is being done relative to Ar- thur Wilkinson's claims against the city for damages arising out storm sewers discharging on his land, de- clared that progress was being made and that the matter might be clear- ed up within 8 month following the was granted, A nominal rental of one dollar a year will be charged, Ald, Harmon asked what steps were being taken to widen the bridge on Simcoe street south, and he was informed by the mayor that the matter would be attended to as soon as heavy traffic on the road is re- duced. The CG, N. R., it was stated, has already obtained part of the material required for the purpose including a girder. Contacts for additional paving, it was clearly shown out at the close of the meeting by Ald. Macdonald's question, will be given to the Stand- ard Paving Company, already carry- ing the city's previously approved 1927 program, and at the same rate at which they offered to do the first section, Ald. Hart declared that no lower tender could be expected at this time of the year in view of the Standard Paving Company's being on the ground and ready to carry on with the work at once, setulae Covad] session, Ald, Macdonald's question as to whether the Council had; been in- formed about tenders being called for a cantilever bridge in the Town- ship for which Oshawa will be as- sessed one half of the cost, was as- sured by Ald. Hart that the whole matter had been reported to the Council, though the city has no op- tion in the matter under Provincial laws and must pay its share of the cost. A hurried search of the minutes failed to show the report, and the matter was referred to the city clerk for a more careful search and re- port.
