This coincidence was com- mented upon today by officials who recalled the tragedy of three years ago. A large wooden platform was erected to accommodate a cement mixer and chutes were placed on four sides to drain the material into the construction below. The work at lock six had been completed and workmen were called to move the platform. It was decided to slide the construction into its new position and to prevent it gaining too great momentum, a tackle was se- curely fastened. Just after the great met-work had started to move off, a snap shackle gave way and the platform toppled over, Workmen were carried down or pinned beneath the debris and eight lives were lost, Injuries were suffer- ed by several others, SCABBORO' TOWN.

Addition to Axle Plant, Renovation of Fisher Extensions Will Necessi-' tate Employment of Sev- eral Hundred Additional Men--H, A. Brown, Gen- eral Manager, of Gen- eral Motors Issues De- tailed Information as to Expansion Supplementing the statement of R. 8. McLaughlin, president of General Motors of Canada, Limit- ed, that $500,000 is being spent in new buildings and equipment for the company at Walkerville, H. A. Brown, vice-president and general manager, late yesterday issued more detailed information to The Oshawa Daily Times. The expan- sion includes the erection of an office building, an addition to the plant manufacturing axles, and the renovation of the old Fisher body plant to make truck cabs and bod- jes, as well as other smaller ex- tensions, These extensions will necessitate the employment of sev- eral hundred additional men, Mr. Brown states, The new office building, Mr. Brown says, will be a two-story structure and will be constructed on Walker road, im front of the present General Motors plants there. An effort is being made to rush it to completion so that it will be ready for occupancy with- in 60 to 90 days, when the offices incidental to the operation of the Walkerville plant will be moved into the new building, To provide for increased pro- duction of front axles, four "bays are to be constructed on to plant "A, A test track slightly larger than the one at Oshawa, is under way, and an inspection building similar to the one here will be erected within the track. A drive- away shed will also be built, to accommodate trpcks for local de- livery, The capacity of the holler houte is being increased, and a new concrete stack is being erect- ed to replace the old metal one, The old four-story Fisher body plant is being re-opened and re- novated, to provide for the manu- facture of truck bodies and cabs, It is expected that work will com- mence in thig. plant about August 15. Another one-story building, part of the old W¥isher property, will be used for making truck and bus bodies. Mr, Brown stated to The Times But that he could not give an - esti- mate of the cost, as the plans for some of the work have not yet been completed. They are in the course of preparation by Hutton & Souter, Hamilton, and are being rushed through as quickly as pos- gible, as an effort is being made to have all of this work com- pleted within a three months per- iod, READERS' VIEWS ALBERTA COAL Editor Oshawa Daily Times, Dear Sir,-- I would like to say a few words in regard to Alberta coal, I be- lieve that if the average hocse- holder were convinced he could get as good value in the use of Alberta coal as he gets with, American coal, he would buy the Canadian produced product. He would buy it for the reason that he would be keeping his money in Canada and thereby contributing to the em- ployment of more Canadian la- bour. Some of it would no doubt come back to Oshawa in payment of some made in Oshawa automo- biles or other line of goods. The point is, Can he get equal value and equal, if not better ser- vice in the matter of labor requir- ed in attending to his furnace; in cleanliness, ete.? [I claim that he can. I do not, however, ask amy: one to fill up his coal bin with his entire winter's supply just be- cause I say so. What I would like to see is that every householder in Oshawa try out at least a ton of this coal and determine the matter of its merits themselves on the strength of actual experience, I have tried out Alberta coal and, I am delighted with the results I obtained. [I prefer it to any other class of fuel, I don't care if it is anthracite or anything else; I be- lieve the great majority of people who may give it a trial will form the same opinion as [I have. (4 the coal is satisfactory, which I claim it is, we can keep mililons of dollars in this country that is at the present time going across the line each year to give em- ployment to American labor im. stead of, as it should be, staying By all means, 1 say, give Alber- fair trial. ; ta coal 8 _T.
