2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Seturdey, October 31, 1959 'GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN NOTES ON OSHAWA'S HOTELS The sale of the Cadillac Hotel at 304 Simcoe street south to Harry Arbus and Albert Bolter of Toronto is expected to take place before Nov. 15th. : The Ontario Liquor Licence Board has approved transfer of the Cadillac licence to the Toronto group (Mr. Arbus is in the men's wear business and owns an Ottawa hotel) and lawyers are working dut the final details of an agreement, The Cadillac is owned and operated by S. S. Vassar, who built it 15 years ago, No sale price was announced. The OLLB has also rejected an application for a beverage room licence by Wilmington Developments Ltd., which company proposed to build a 20-room hotel at King and Celina streets, Oshawa. The company want- ed to lease the proposed building from Stewart Alger of Oshawa. Alan J. Cossar of Toronto is president of Wilmington--D. J. McLaughlin of Kettleby and Arthur Clayton of Oshawa are also members. The company, in its application before the board last May, stated in its brief that an attractive, modern hotel would be erected as a result of renovations to the apartments and office block on the King street-Celina street corner. An investment of $250,000 was antici- pated. The application was opposed by Rev. W. A. Gibb and five Oshawa hotels. Russell D. Humphreys, representing the hotels, said there was no need for a new hotel, He also said: Rooms in five city hotels were only 53.5 percent occupied in 1958. Consumption of beer in beverage rooms was down from 346,000 gallons in 1953 to 189,000 gallons in 1958. There seems to be a change in people's drinking habits, Now they buy their beer and drink at home-- and more hard liquor is being consumed. A spokesman for Wilmington Developments said to- day a new application for a licence may be launched soon. BOARD TAKES A SENSIBLE STAND The Board of Education has acted with wisdom in delaying its decision on awarding contracts for the con- troversial new administration centre--cost of which would be approximately $490,000, or $140,000 more than was earmarked for the building in the first place. Chairman S. G. Saywell said that at least $150,000 will have to be lopped off the cost indicated in the bids. Trustee George Fletcher bluntly said he couldn't under~ stand the reason for such high bids--unless the con- tractors had read the publicity regarding the board's estimated cost and tried to get as much of the $350,000 as they could. Perhaps Trustee M. Brown was more candid when he stated that the board should just admit that it was into something a lot more "handsome" than it thought. School boards are constantly being pressured in this age of fast-rising prices to include unnecessary frills and fancies in their new buildings and the Osha- wa board's decision to stand firm in this instance should prove heartening to this city's taxpayers, burdened as they are with the highest per capita debt of any On- tario city in its group (Windsor, London, Kitchener and Brantford.) SHORT NOTES-FROM HERE AND THERE Chairman 8. F, Saywell and Business Administrator W. Gordon Bunker of the Board of Education recently returned from an education convention in Miami, Flori- da. Mr, Saywell alse attended the annual convention of the Ontario Public School Trustees in Port Arthur... Trustee C. W. Minett told the Board of Education this week it should get away from the idea everything it built should be "the best" . , , Oshawa Little Theatre will open its 1959-60 season with "White Sheep Of The Family" (a "sophisticated comedy) November 18, 19, 20 and 21... Members of the board and staff of Simcoe Hall Boys' Club will attend a workshop in Toronto Nov. 7, sponsored by the Boys' Club of Canada and the Boys' Club Professional Association of Ontario. Harold Mc Neill of the Oshawa Club and J. Mitchell, regional di- rector of the BCC, will head the discussion group on "How a Boys' Club Board Should Operate." SAD SAGA OF A CAGE TEAM Such is the price of fame! An Oshawa team managed by Fred Whalley gained thousands of dollars worth of free (and favorable) pub- licity for the city last season while winning the Inter. mediate "B" Championship of the Ontario Basketball Association. They may be forced to disband this year. They lack a financial backer. What's wrong with our civie pride when we can allow such a gallant little group to fall by the way- side? Oshawa Shopping Centre did more than a little to help the boys get under way last season when they were unknown, but the Centre, because of previous advertis- ing commitments, will be unable to support them this season, Despite help received last year from the Centre ($120 cash, sweaters, a banquet, and championship jace kets), the team found the financial going real tough, especially as they advanced in the playdowns and visit- ed such points as Camp Borden and Kirkland Lake. The players and club personnel put on several fund-raising drives. themselves, but mostly they ended up paying expenses out of their own pockets. Expenses were more than $000. Half the time the club didn't know where its next dollar was coming from. ! Certainly no fault can be found with the Shopping Centre, but this does not alter the fact the boys need a sponsor ready to kick in between $400 and $600 for the upcoming season, What an opportunity for some civic-minded group to help a game little team that brought fame ar honor to its hpme town. NEW THOUGHTS ON LEADERSHIP W. E. "Bill" Austin can speak with authority on the subject of "Leadership In All Walks of Life." It's been his good luck to work in close' association with some pretty big Canadian names in recent years --fellows like Gillis Purcell, president of the Canadian Press, General Crerar, E. P. Taylor, William C. Wecker and E. H. Walker. His talk on the subject before the Oshawa Jaycees this week had a special significance because the Jaycees are expected to supply many of the leaders of tomorrow. In brief, here's what "Bill" (he's assistant to Mr, Walker, the president of GM) said: Leaders need to submit themselves to a stricter discipline than is expected of others, Many leaders are people who have learned the art of obeying, Young people who aspire to reach positions of leadership would be doing themselves a favor if they were to drill themselves in facing disagreeable things. Mr. Wecker (former president of GM of Canada) once confided to this department: "Hard work and luck can play an important role in life, but most successful business men I have met ap- pear to have one thing in common, at least--that's a phenomenal memory. That seems to be an esfential. The nice part of it is that much of it can be acquired by perseverence." ' CANADA HAS made a gift of 9,200,000 pounds of milk powder to India where the government is trying to pro- vide children with more milk. In this photo, Chester Ron- More Thought For Canadian Thinking Urged NEW YORK (CP) -- A former American businessman -- now a Canadian -- said Friday night a "vast number" of Canadian sub- sidlaries of United States com- panies are often operated with little thought to specific Canadian situations. 3 Herbert H. Lank, president of Du Pont of Canada Ltd,, Mon- treal, told the Canadian Socjety of New York: "The fault with this approach lies in the false and irritating as- sumption that whatever is suit- able for the U.S. is automatically suitable for Canada--since Cana- dians and U.S. citizens are so much alike." ; "Such thinking can cause great harm to the companv concerned, and spread the damage to broader political and social areas." | Lank, who came to Canada in 1942 and about 10 years later tock out Canadian citizenship, | added: "Canadian subsidiaries, like Canadian immigrants, assume responsibilities unwritten as well as written when they accept Canadian citizenship and the op-| portunities and protection which | go with it." | He suggested that such sibsidi- aries should be. managed by Canadians, have policies and pro-| cedures tailored to the Canadian| scene, process as much as pos- sible in Canada, do research in Canada, purchase its supplies in Canada as far as possible, make| its stock available on Canadian | exchanges and have substantial| Canadian representation on its board of directors. . 8,000,000 and 4,000,000 acres in Roberts Airs His Opinions On Assessment BELLEVILLE (CP) -- Attor- ney-General Roberts of Ontario recommended Friday night a uni- form, weighted assessment of all Ontario real estate with a fixed, fair tax rate levied for school costs, He told the graduating class of his old school, Belleville Collegi- ate and Vocational Institute, that this was a system styled one in use in Britain since 1920 to re- lieve home owners from the bur- den of heavy school costs. Mr. Roberts said a fairer method of distributing the costs is needed. Real estate bore prac- tically the whole cost in Ontario until about 15 years ago when a new policy was introduced. In Britain the national govern- ment now pays 58 per cent of the cost of education, | The Ontario government last year paid $103,306,041 of a total provincial school budget of al- most -$250,000,000, Mr, Roberts sald in Britain there is a standard assessment for the entire. country. A weight assessment is applied by increas-| ing grants to areos with a lower] per capita basis. ] "In this way all taxes against real estate for school are uni form. Applying this to Ontarlo, if we could determine a fair mill rate throughout the province, then the total over-all costs of schools beyond the fixed figure ning, Canada's high commis- sioner to India, hands over a bag of milk powder from the first shipment to a represen- tative of the United Nations International Children's Emer- COLOMBO PLAN Canada Milk To By RUKMINI DEVI Canadian Press Correspondent BOMBAY (CP)--The mortality rate among Indian's children has been showing a steady fall. The drop is partly attributed to |a program in the southern and eastern parts of the country where some children are getting milk daily for the first time in their lives. In some of these areas, milk is so scarce as to be almost an unknown commodity. Canada, through the Colombo plan, is helping get more milk to the children by gifts of milk powder. The first consignment of Can- ada's gift of 9,200,000 pounds of milk powder was unloaded at Bombav recently. Another was on its way to Cochin, Kerala state, and Madras city. The biggest consignment, 5,000,000 pounds, will be handed over to West Ben- gal state.

When free milk powder was distributed in a village in Kerala state, south India, people showed little enthusiasm, ' "Why does the government waste mone" on buying and dis- tributing milk?" asked the local schoolmaster. "'Give us rice in- stead." MUCH MILK WASTED The per capita consumption of milk in Kerala is as little as 1% ounces a day while the northern aregs such as East Punjab and Gujarat produce so much milk that at times large quantities & to waste for want of proper livery facilities, The central and state govern- ments are starting a number of programs to step up milk produc- tion and to remove bottlenecks in the distribution system. asked Attorney-General Richard A.
