Goes To y Owners It will be recalled that the query of the Commission as ad- dressed to the City Solicitor was prompted by a resolution adopted by the Oshawa Property Onwers' Asrociation, and the Commission will forward & copy of Col Grierson's opinion, together with a copy of the revised Act govern- ing electric accounts to the Prop- erty Owners' organization, MAYOR WOULD CUT SALARY LISTS Gave "Notice of Motion" on Reduction at Util ities Meeting Yesterday The Public Utilities Commls- slon at its meeting last night, re- ceived a report on some, of the cutstanding accounts which had been placed in the hands of col- lectors, It was reported that of the 492 accounts investigated, 21 letters sent out had been re- turred by the Post Office, while there was only a small number from whom it had been impos- sible to effect a settlement, The report was filed. A communication was received from City Council in regard to the request of the commission that Council acquire a right-of- way on Knight's Road, The City Council reported. that no action had been taken, Communications were revelve ad from two firms who are sup plying material and doing work as subcontractors on the filtra- tion plant, asking that their in- terests be protected, 'The Com- mission moved to.inform these parties that the Commission had & fifteen per cent holdback in its contract with the W. J. 'I'rick Company Ltd.,, and also stated the nature of the contract which the Commission had with the Trick Company. Mayor Macdonald gave notice of motion that at a special meet- ing, to be called in the near fu- ture, he will move that there be a general adjustment of salaries wm the staff of the Public Utilities Commission. While no indication of the nature of this motion was given it is believed that this action is being taken to fall in line with other civie bod- ies which have taken a salary cut, LEFT FOR OTTAWA Toronto, Feb. 12--Hig Excellency 'the Governor-General and Lady Bessborough entrained for Ottawa this afternoon following their two- day visit to Toronto, Lord Bess- borough visited Christie Street Milita: Hospital this morning while Her Excellency called at the Girl Guide Headquarters and later at the Jocal branch of the Victoria Order of Nurses.

Awaited With Interest All the teachers of the city who are under the administration of the Board of Education met after school hours yesterday afternoon in the Centre Street School auditorium where the proposed reductions in the salary schedule were thorough ly discussed, While no official statement re- garding the outcome of this meet- ing has been made, it is understood that the position of the Board was explained in detail by the Chairman Dr. F, J. Donevan, who was sup- orted at the meeting by the major- ity of his fellow Trustees, The teachers met the Board as members of the Federation to which they beliwg, and it is understood that their opinions as expressed yesterday were similar in practi- cally every respect to those which have been expressed through the medium of this paper. Proposed Ten Per Cent Cut The main reduction in the salary schedule, for which the Board is seeking acquiescence by the Teach- ers Federation, has the effect of cutting salaries by ten per cent from Sentember 1 of this year. The City Council, on the other hand, is bringing pressure to bear on the Board to make such a re- duction effective from February 1, of this year, and claims that this Board of Education Meet with Teachers Federation and School Trustees Discussed Salary Ques- tion Yesterday Afternoon--Board's Next Move Is \ would bring the estimated expendi- tures of the Board within the lim- its of the appropriation approved and set by Council in its budget. The teachers' attitude, from what can be gathered, is that to make any reduction in existing salaries effective before September 1, the end of the school year, would be tantamount to a breach of contract with the teachers, It is said that the teachers, realizing to the fullest degree the necessity for strict econ- omy in civic expenditures, would accept a salary cut of five per cent from February 1, such a reduction to continue in effect during the next school year commencing September 1, but beyond this they are unwill- ing, at present to go. Has Two Alternatives Under these conditions the next move of the Board of Edycation is awaited with considerable interest, as it appears that it has two alter- native policies open for it to take--~ to continue to operate under its own estimates and let the City Council make up its deficit at the end of the year; or apply to the courts for enforcement of the gov- erning Act which, it is claimed, makes it compulsory for the mun- icipal council to collect and levy the total sum which the Board sta- tes it requires, COUNCIL APPOINT - NEW COMMISSION Ontario County Members Under New Ontario Cemetery Act A bylaw to appoint two mem- bers of the Cemetery Commission under the Cemetery Act enacted by the Lgeislative in 1931 was passed by the Council Council on Thursday morning, A third mem- ber of the Commission will be ap- pointed by the Ontario Govern- ment, The County's appointees are Reeve Albert W. Jackson, of Whitby, and Reeve John Ross, of Thorah, Their duties are set forth in the Act, and, briefly stated, have to do with the clean- ing up and maintenance in a proper manner neglected ceme- terles wherein are buried the re- mains of pioneers of this prov- ince. Reeve Philp, of Brock, opposed the appointment of a Commis- sion on the ground that it was just saddling more expense on the County. He favored the idea of 'cleaning up the old cemeter- fes, but felt that this work could be done: by the municipalities and through a campaign of edu- cation, The duties of the Commission as set forth in the Act were read by County Clerk R.

An appeal was made for the co-operation of all members in making this event an outstanding success, and the details of the program were an- nounced. In addition to the many prizes which are to be given for costume at the masquerade, there will be speed-skating events for local skaters, a broom ball game between the Capadifan Legion and the Oshawa Firemen, and other features of interest.

Missiles WARSHIPS GATHER Bluejackets, Infantrymen, Artillery, Warship, Aero- planes, All Take Part Shanghai, Feb, 12-The Japanese high command determined to-day to reduce the stubborn Chinese forts at Woosung with 500-pound aerial bombs, : Two weeks of dogged resistance by the Chinese in the Shanghai- Woosung area have convinced the Japanese staff that the only way to reach a decision is by a large scale military operation, and these bombs capable of causing terrific destruc- tion, will prepare the way for as- sault lines of infantrymen with bay- onets, . When the zero hour will come re- mained a secret, but it will be soon, The expected arrival of more rein- forcementy from Japan to swell the already strong attacking force was one of the factors that held up the action to-day, Warships Gathering Already 40 Japanes, warships and transports have been jammed into the Yangtze Estuary. When the engagement starts, the Japanese will be involved in one of their lar- gest military actions since the Rus- so-Japanese war, Peace was insured in the Chapei area of Shanghai between the hours of 8 am, and noon today through the activity of Father Jacquinot, a Catholic priest who lost an arm and won a decoratign for valor at Ver- dun, Father Jacquinot, head of the College of St, Francis Xavier, who has the rank of major in the Shanghai Volunteer Corps, has been in-and out of Chapei on missions of mercy numerous times since the hostilities started. Through his good offices both the Chinese and Jap- anese agreed to the four-hour truce in. order that civilians might be moved of the war-torn area. When they are gone the ground will be cleared for the military men, ACCIDENT CAUSED LOT OF TROUBLE Water Samples Taken While Pump Runs With- out Supervision LJ Some apprehension was felt by the Board of Health following the taking of samples of water from the city water mains on January 27 when tests of the samples showed that the water being served to the user was of an inferior. quality, The cause tor the drop in the high étandard of water supplied, was explained, however, at last night's meeting of the Public Utilities Commis- sion and it was shown that the water consumers in the city had no need for fear as to the quality of their water, In a communication received by the Commission early in the month, Dr. T. W, G, McKay stated that samples taken on January 27 had been poor and cautioned the Commission that great care must be exercised in the chlorination of water at the filtration plant during the win- ter months when the lake was bringing in silt due to rough weather conditions, Explaining the reason for the poor samples taken on the date mentioned, BE, Colvin, superin- tendent of the water department, stated that Mr, Walker, who 'was in charge of the pumping sta- tion was overcome by chlorine fumes and had to leave the sta- tion to get air before he was able to shut off the pumps. Medical aid was rushed to him and it was un hour before a substitute was on duty at the station and during that period of time the samples were taken from the mains, It was most unforunate, he stated, that such an accident should have taken place. In a report of tests made of water samples taken recently which was received by the Com- mission. yesterday, it was stated that the water supply for the city was most satisfactory. Indeed, all the samples taken passed the tests with a grade "A" rating with one exception and this had been the case with the last two groups of samples taken. The Board of Health, through the M.O.H,, also offered its con- gratulations to the pump house slaff for the efficient manner in which they 'were carrying out their work, Be iat. ~ WILL HAND WAR VETERAN " ANSWERS GALL F.

It was pointed out by Commis- sioner F, L., Mason, Chairman of the Commission, that total rebate would amount to $32,772.54, which is made up as follows: Domestic con= sumers, $27,411.92; Commercial cons sumers, $10,4844.48; Power consums= ers, $13,570.79; City of Oshawa, street lighting $834.50; and Public Utilities for power at the pumping station, $470.85, The communication which was re= ceived by the commission from the Hydro Electric Power Commission reporting on the finding of that body in regard to the request of the Utilities Commission is as follows: Letter From Hydro "The Commission has finally con- cluded that it has not the authority to grant the request of the Oshawa Public Utilities Commission.
