J. Parkhill, East Whitby solocitor, by the East White by Council, meeting in Columbus. A. H. Pea, spokesman fox a dele- gation from the Thornton's Corners community, termed the inclusion of the district in a water area like "carrying coals to Newcastle," "I think it's an act of presumption on somebody's part," he charged, "to say that a survey has been taken when nobody in the community has biggest single attempt at-sabet since the war ended.

Bulk of the installation expense was borne by those fronting on the mains with the water area in gen- eral only being charged for street crossings and corner lot exemp- Water Rate tions, Mr. Noble said. Major share of the water area levy would be paid off in five years, he added, pointing out, however, that lighting services came under this same item. Deputy-Reeve T, D. Thomas said that in former years the money for water service expenditures came out of the general fund. "This coun- cil believes in putting everything on the table," he stressed. "This is the first year these expenditures have been itemized." City Water Far In Future Mr. Dean predicted that his area wouldn't need city water for 25 years .and another member of the delegation said he didn't think "we ought to pay for it until we actually get it." : Councillor Edgar Glover suggest- ed that even if the water area by- law were amended the residents of the exempted district would prob- ably have to wait until next year before having the tax lopped off their bill. The proposed amendment to the township water area bylaw would remove the Thornton's Corners zone from the actual water area until a further request for water services was received" from the residents of the district. Councillor Elmer Powell conceded that the engineer might have erred in placing the Thornton's Corners district in the designated water area.

The countries showing an increase are the United States, Canada, Ar. gentina, Ireland and Switzerland. In Great Britain, Finland and New Zealand there were fewer stoppages in 1946 than In 1945, and in the ninth country included in the sur- vey, Czechoslovakia, no strikes or lockouts were reported. In the United States, the total number of work stoppages in 1943 reached a new high of 4,995, slightly more- than the peak in 1944. This compares with 4,750 stoppages in 1945. Approximately 4,600,000 work- ers were directly involved in the 1046 stoppages--a larger number than in any previous year on record and a jump of more than 1,000,000 over 1945, In Canada, the movement was similar to that of the United States. In 1946, there were 228 stoppages, an increase of 31 over the previous year, with a total of 139,474 workers involved in 1946 as against 43,000 in 1945. More than 4,500,000 working days were lost in 1946, more than three times the figure of 1046. By far the greatest number of disputes, work- ers involved and days lost were in the manufacturing industries. Zadorozny, Zarowny, Zilinski, Operators Capitulating To. Lewis Washington, July 8 (AP).--An agreement . under which 150,000 United States soft coal miners will work when "willing and able" at the highest wage in history was signed today. Harry M. Moses, representing the steel companies, and Charles O'Neill of the northern commercial opera- tors, signed for their operations em- ploying the 150,000. Other operators from the Midwest and Far East, who employ an ad- ditional 160,000 miners, were waiting their turn to put their signature to the pact, negotiated by Moses and O'Neill in days of dickering. This leaves only the Southern group, producing approximately 25 per cent of the United States' bitu- minous output, outside the ranks of those ready to capitulate to Lewis' new contract terms. Even the Southern operators ap- peared resigned to follow suit but called a meeting among them. selves to consider the new pact be. fore officially committing them. selves. The miners now are idle, but only a word from Lewis is needed to send them back to the mines. The union strategy board ratified the agree- ment last night but the formal signing by both sides was delayed. They could 'be back on the job at the 3 p.m. shifts, Reluctantly but surely, the opera- tors of the South, Midwest and Far West were expected to follow. But their mines probably will stay closed a day or so longer while owners ex- amine the 21.page contract, calling for a boost in the miner's basic hourly pay from $1.18% to $1.63 or $13.05 for an eight hour day. Coal prices are due to go up between 67 cents and $1 a ton. Looking Forward| To New Trial Sarnia, July 8 (CP).--Joseph Tay- lor, "in good spirits and a model prisoner in every respect," com- mented casually here today that this was the date scheduled for his hanging for the murder of his wife Rita. Taylor, granted a new trial by the Supreme Court of Canada, was con- victed for her murder following a drinking party at Baxter Beach, last Nov. 30. His new trial is scheduled to begin in October, and he looks forward to it with confidence, jail governor E. J. Mott said today. Two Autos and Truck Damaged in Collision Two automobiles and a truck were damaged in a collision at about 11 a.m. today at the corner of Bruce and Simcoe Street. An Ideal Dairy truck, driven by Wesley Matthews, moving north on Simcoe Street, met in collision with a car driven by G. A. Speight who was moving west on Bruce Street. The vehicles, which met in the collision, wee carried by their mo- mentum into the left front fender of a car, owned by E, G. Disney, which was parked facing south on Simcoe Street.

Vancouver Is Combed For Bandits North Vancouver, July 8--(CP)-- Police, today combed rooming hou- ses and known underworld "dives" here and across Burrard Inlet in greater Vancouver for two bandits who escaped with $4,400 from the Bank of Nova Scotia here Monday. A stolen car used by the overall- clad, marked gunmen was recovered late last night on lonely Seymour Mountain, 3) miles east of the scene of the crime, Youthful berry-pickers near the spot where the car was found, re- ported that two men hit the stolen vehicle, then leaped into a car dri- ven by a third man. , The holdup occurred when a man, his face covered with a dirty- grey handkerchief and sunglasses, 'entered the bank and ordered Man- ager, L.A. Hannah at gunpoint to open the vault. " Mr, Hannah told the gunman that the vault operated on a time lock and could not be opened, and the man scooped up the cash from a teller's cage, fleeing to the front of the bank where his accomplice was waiting in the car.

Fine Toronto Driver For Careless Driving Found guilty by Magistrate F. S. Ebbs in Magistrate's Court this morning on a charge of careless driving, James' Lynch of Toronto was ordered to pay a fine of $25 and costs or spend one month in the county jail. The charge, which was laid by Provincial Constazie J. A. H. Kift, came 28 the result of an accident on Highway No. 12, a quarter of a mile south cf Myrtle at approxi- mately 2,15 pm. on June 1. The accused was represented by A. W. 8. Greer, K.C. Heavy rain was falling on the afternoon in question when the ac- cused, driving north, made a left hand turn into the Duff Faim laneway where he and Mrs. Lynch were going to visit. Lynch admitted he gave no signal because there were no cars behind him. He failed to see a car ahead of him which was bound in the opposite direction. The driver of the other car, Ken- neth R. Dean of Toronto, saw Mr. Lynch making the turn but could not slow down to a stop quickly enough nor could he swing to the left and pass safely gince the Lynd vehicle was too far out on the high- way and would have caused Mr. Dean 'to run his car 'into the ditch and son as well as himself. A collision took place between the front of Dean's car and the right side of Lynch's car pushing the lat- ter into the ditch on the west side of the highway and causing exten- sive damage to both vehicles. Mr. Dean said damage amounted to $450 and Mr, Lynch said damage to his auto was estimated at more than $200. endangering his wife and daughter' North Oshawa Fast Becoming Gasoline Alley "North Oshawa 1s getting to be known as gasoline alley," observed Councillor W. E. Noble last night as Bast Whitby Township Council considered a letter from Sharp Motors on Simcoe Street North pointing out that work on the in- stallation of gasoline pumps would get underway almost immediately subject to the granting of a license by the Oshawa Suburban Road Commission. # Putting Council on Epot "It looks as if somebody is trying to put this council on the spot," de- clared Councillor Noble. "What are we getting ourselves into? There isn't that much business in the area." Reeve A. E. Grass said the origin. al permit had been for a '"show- room" only with the understanding that there would be "nothing fur- ther," Commenting on the letter, which stated that other garage owners in the area had signed a document declaring they had no. objection to the installation of gasoline pumps at the Sharp Motors location, Reeve Grass wanted to know where the petition was. "At least we' should have it to look at," he sald, "It should have been' here to- night," added Councillor Edgar Glover, . Council finally decided to table the letter until the petition was available for examination. Nine Families On Relief Mrs. Freda Holman, township re- lief administrator, reported that nine families were on relief during June with = expenditures totalling $276.60.
