That has been brought about by hard work, not only by the 1950 council but by other councils be- fore that and with the assistance of the late treasurer, Peter Black- burn, We must keep it that way. Tremendous problems are facing the 1951 council. Here in Canada we are given the privilege to vote, something of which too few coun- tries enjoy today, I urge every rate- payer to respect the ballot and turn out and vote on Monday." John Dyer John Dyer: "Once again I am ap- pealing for your influence. I have entered this contest with no axe to grind. I believe my time has come and I am prepared to render my service as an alderman if that is your wish. I feel we should have more educational facilities in Osh- awa. Oshawa cannot treble its size without having in its wake a trial of difficulties. We cannot have ser- vices without paying for them. I believe that under the leadership of Mayor Starr all the difficulties will be overcome." Orville Eagle Orville Eagle: "I realize that the 1951 council and the councils in years to come have difficulties to overcome with the advent of an- nexation. I recommend that a bridge be erected north of King Street, across the Oshawa Creek, tq alleviate the traffic congestion in the downtown section of the city. I think restrooms in the central part of the city should be establish- ed. There is a definite need for cor- recting to be done to low lying sidewalks in any parts of the city. I also recommend improved co- ordination with civic departments to keep expenses down." Michael Fenwick Michael Fenwick: "I urge the changing of the election system in the city to the ward systém so that all the taxpayers will be given equal representation. The tax rate should be left as low as possible without sacrifice of any services. I erected a home here and taxes have been going up very year. Economy should be practiced in 1951. Civic employees are working for wages that you would not work for in a factory, I advocate action of housing. One of our steelworkers was evicted last year. I was told at that time that I was seeking publicity. Now, this week we have read a heart render- ing editorial in The Times-Gaz~- zette about four children dying in an overcrowded house. Something must be done about the housing situation. It is acute. If elected I will promote the best interests of Oshawa without fear or favor." Ald. Cephas Gay . Alderman Cephas Gay: "I am anxious to bring to the citizens of Greater Oshawa as soon as is economically possible, much needed services such as a community park- ing area down town, modern street | RE-ELECT In our hearts, your memory lingers | | "BOB" | MILLS for PUBLIC UTILITIES COMMISSION KiLvingTon Bros.

Rae Halliday Rae Halliday: "In my opinion the council has done a wonderful job. If I had been a member of council I would have given them 100 percent support. Annexation has its problems and X feel that it is al- most certain that we can expect a slight increase in taxes. We must give the same consideration to the people of the annexed area along the lines we enjoy." Ald, Clifford Harman Alderman - Clifford = Harman: "Some 262 new atreet lights have been installed in Oshawa this year and I hope more will be installed. Eleven fire hydrants have been or- dered to be established. Work on the new fire 'hall has started on Sim- coe Stree North and I am proud to see that it has started. I.am in favor of the new Sewage Disposal Plant and the new police station. It is a crime to go into the present police station and see where some of our citizens have to stay at night. I wish to thank' Mr. Thomas (MPP. for. Ontarlo Riding) and T. K. Creighton (City Solicitor) for what they have done on annexation matters. I would like also to thank Mr. Thomson (MP, for Ontario Riding) for what he has done at the lake." Ald, Haywarrd Murdoch Alderman Hayward Murdoch: "I have only one platform that is to carry on the work of council to the best of my ability. The past two years have been'difficult ones but it has been a satisfying two years and we are now coming to the point where we can see the fruits of our efforts. It doesn't matter to me whether the ward system or city wide system of election is in effect. If all the people, including delega- tions who came for assistance from council during the year had attend- ed, this auditorium would be pack- ed tonight." William Naylor william Naylor: "I believe that every citizen should at some time give some sort of service to the city, whether they be candidates or not. It is true that those who serve have headaches and difficulties to put up with, but there is a great deal of satisfaction received in work well done. I would like to pay tri- pute to the 1950 council for the work done, especially Mayor Starr. We only get out of a community that which we put into it. If elect- ed I will work like a. Naylor." William Noble East Whitby Township Reeve William Noble: "We have been working on annexation for three years and now we are at a point of actually becoming part of Osha- wa. It seems an oddity for me to be standing for aldermatic election in Oshawa while I am still reeve in the township. The growth in the township has been much more rapid in the last few years than has been the case in Oshawa. With the aid of the P.U.C. watermains have been installed in the township. A couple of miles of storm sewers have been installed, I think annex- ation will be to the mutual benefit of both communities, I have known the problems of Oshawa, having been in close contact with city offi- cials over the past few years. The financial condition of the township is in first class order and by the end of this year we should be out of the woods. If elected I will use all my energy and ability on behalf of all the citizens of wa." John "Wes." Powers East Whitby Township Councillor John "Wes" Powers: "I have look- ed forward to the day I would be living in Oshawa. As chairman of watermains in the township I have found the citizens of East Whitby looking over the fence into Oshawa and demanding the same services which Oshawa has. If elected I will do my utmost to administer the af- fairs of the city and work in the in- terest of all citisens with no fear or favor, The sewage disposal plant is urgently needed and should be con- structed without delay. We must guard against adding too much of a financial burden of the taxpayers. I will consider it a real pleasure to serve the citizens of Oshawa." Herbert Robinson Herbert Robinson: "If elected to council I will serve to the best of my ability and stimulate interest in Oshawa. I feel I have something to offer, One of the biggest thrills I have had was when the Oshawa Civic Memorial Stadium was open- ed. I derived much satisfaction im seeing it completed so successfully. Oshawa has been good to me. I would like to devote some of my business experience to civic busi- ness. In 1061 there will be service expansions and a good sound coun- cil is needed.". Williamson Rutherford Williamson Rutherford: "One of my main planks is housing. I think I know the housing situation in Oshawa. I have visited many homes and have seen conditions that exist and I assure you they are nothing to be proud of. If cquncil of 1948 had saw to it that the house on Annis street was condemned the four children who died this week might still be alive today. There are several other houses in the same condition. I will fight for a low cost rental scheme where citizens could pay around $35 monthly instead of $65. No working man can afford to pay nine or ten thousand dollars for a home. Council should look into the retention of rent controls. Price - Controls 'should also be brought back into force." Michael Sossin Michael Sossin: "I am interested in the welfare of all the citizens of Oshawa. The 1951 council heeds sin- cere and honest men. There should be continued progress. I get very much enthused over the past pro- gress, it astounds me and I would like to participate in the continu- ance of that progress. The opportu~ nities we have here in Oshawa are second to none in Canada. Our ci F..M. DAFOE RE-ELECT F, M.

William Boddy William Boddy: "Oshawa has now arrived at a very important stage in its life time with the annexation of a large portion of East Whitby Township. The P.U.C. over the past two or three years, maybe longer, has had the picture in mind and planned accordingly. About four years ago we started the purchas- ing of sub-stations and- increased the capacity of them, The program is practically completed as far as the electricity end is concerned. The water department plays a very vital part in the life of any muni- cipality, especially outlying areas. We have taken care of Oshawa well but your commission had to start two or three years of ex- tensive water program in East Whitby Township." Walter Wilkins . Walter Wilkins: "I realize that the commissioners who are seeking re-election have wide experience, but for a new comer to get experi- ence he must serve on the commis- sion. I would like to know if in- industry is not able to absorb in- creases instead of the people of Oshawa, There is a lot of work to be done.

My platform is the children of Oshawa, to see that they are given the best facilities, and teach~- ers, but with thought on the tax- payers pockets. If elected I will continue the work I have done in the past to the best of my ability." Mrs, Margaret Elliott Mrs. Margaret Elliott: "A Town Hall such as this is one of the old- est forms of democracy. I have chosen to run for a seat on the Board of Education because I feel I know something about education in every kind of school, and I feel my experience will be of benefit to the City of Oshawa, Fifty-one per= cent of all the electors in Canada are women, So far there is only one woman on council and one on the Board of Education. I feel there should be another. There are many problems to be faced and if elect ed I will do my best to give good service." Dr. R. E. McMullen Dr. R. E.
