He agreed that in most instances the necessary tie-in could probably be made "one way or another", Jack Raine, manager of the local branch of Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation, agreed that existing legislation required that housing be involved before the grants could be made. He, too, was of the opinion that many of the projects likely to be under taken in Oshawa would qualify for the assistance of the two senior levels of government. At any rate this would be definitely established if a detailed study were made, INTRIGUING POSSIBILITY -Ald, 8. T.
