Opposition members have often criticized the government for not making public the report, sub- mitted by the commission last fall and believed to have recom- mended a general, 10-per-cent in- crease for government employ- ees. Finance Minister Fleming contends it is confidential. The government has refused to provide the general increase. Later, the Commons also de- feated by a vote of 115 to 32 a motion of J. W.

McINTYRE HOOD Special to The Oshawa Times LONDON --- Britain's toll of |death and injury on. the high- |ways in December, 1959, was the highest recorded in the coun- try with the exception of the year 1941. In that year, the blackout and the movement of army con- voys around the country rolled up a heavy toll. In no other year, however, have there been as many people killed and injured {in traffic accidents in Decem- {ber than was the case in 1959. | In that month, 881 people were (killed, 7,918 were seriously in- jured and 23,680 slightly injured m accidents on Britain's high- \ways, Of the number killed, 427 were pedestrians and 40 of these were children. Others killed in. | cluded 87 pedal cyclists, 11 moped {riders, 20 motor scooter riders and passengers and 112 motor- |eyclists and passengers. Car dri- \vers and passenger fatalities {numbered 220. The total of pedes- |trians killed and injured in the month showed an increase of 20 per cent over 1958.

T. Wilmot, secretary of the British Insurance Association, concurred in this view.

While servicing in advance of need was not advocated at this time, it was agreed that the town must be prepared to supply sewer and water as required in order to obtain additional sorely needed industrial assessment for Bow- manyille. Councillor Ken Hicks, council's representative to the Industrial c ission tolc 1 Mond night as a result of the February meeting the following recom- mendation be forwarded to coun- eil, + PUT ON BOOKS "It was, therefore, moved, sec- onded and carried unanimously, that the Commission strongly {recommend to council at its next {meeting that it firmly commit it- self to supply essential services for any industry provided the estimated tax revenue, financial status and-or growth potential of the prospective industry justifies Commission Discusses Need Serviced Industrial Sites pledge these services to any prospective industry that clearly qualifies, referring to council fo a decision only those prospect whose qualifications may be ques- tionable." Speaking on behalf of his mo- tion, Councillor Nicks stated at the November 19 council meet- ing a motion was put on the books that council would service with water and sewer any two in- dustries of reasonable size which mav desire to locate on proper- ties in the west end of town, in the Waverly road area. He said council might as well not have that motion on its books at all. It is very unlikely two in- dustries would be prepared to "Now we are losing Smith Bev- erages to Oshawa but if we had serviced land 'Bill' Smith wouldn't consider moving from here to Oshawa," Councillor Nicks complained, To illustrate his point about serviced industrial properties he produced advertising material which he called propaganda from Oshawa and Brampton and told council the Commission is this year going to make the same kind of determined effort to gain the expenditure and further that 'he Industrial Commissioner (K.| N. Morris) be authorized to| 5 | New Anple Use Found In B.C. OTTAWA (CP) -- The federal| agriculture department has found a new use for apples. Its Summerland, B.C., research| station has produced canned jel- lied applesauce. With nutmeg fla- |voring added, it's reported to be (good with ham or pork. Red food coloring makes it an attractive serving with turkev or chicken. Another major point for diet- ers: the new jellied apple sauce has a much lower sugar content than other jellied fruits now on the market. Normal fruit Jellies require more than 65 per cent sugar in order to set. But use of a special pectin permits a jelly to be formed from sweetened apple- sauce containing not more than 30 per cent sugar, The set of the jelly is control led by varying the proportions of pectin and sugar and acid--added to impart a tart flavor--so the product will be firm enough to slice, yet not too stiff to spread. Igloo Foam Developed For Building TORONTO (CP)--Government efforts to build a better igloo for the Eskimo have given a product to the Canadian building indus- try. The department of northern af- fairs, worried about respiratory illness among Eskimos, intro- duced an insulation material for igloos that would make them easy to heat. Now the material, polysyrene foam, is being used In commer- cial and house construction. The lightweight material in six- inch blocks was originally used to construct the shell of igloos. After, an exterior coat of plastic and ice was added, heat loss was reduced to the point where a candle could heat Eskimo homes. First commercial use was made in military installations, hospitals, hotels, schools and of- fice buildings. More stringent in. sulation specifications in the new electrically - heated houses now being built has opened up a new market, In buildings the insulation is either placed between the brick and cinder block, such as in solid masonry homes, or against the block on the inside. It can be at- tached to hot asphalt but re- quires special treatment to the face before plastering since it is almost completely water resis- tant.

"The town will have to make the investment and the start has to come someday," he concluded. Speaking to the motion for the second time Councillor Hughes said he believed it would be a much more satisfactory motion if rules for the Commissioner and ission Were included He said he would be prepared to make an amendment that the yearly tax revenue would total 25 per cent of the service de- benture cost before the Commis- sioner made a commitment (the basis on which the commitments be outlined by the Commission- er). "It's too much a blank cheque unless it is amended to outline the proper rules under which the Commis:ioner would operate," said Councillor. Hughes. Mr. Morris urged council to make its decision at the meeting] Monday night. He stated the mat-| ter may be urgent as they are conducting negotiations with two! companies now and are in com- petition with other communities. He stated he mav be asked to make a commitment in the next few days. he motion with the amend- ment proposed by Councillor ONE-MAN POWER Councillor Glenholme Hughes, speaking to the motion, told council he wasn't in disagree- ment with the motion, but he felt council was being asked to put in the hands of one man the power to cornmit the town for $100,000. He stated council should have time to consider a matter of such importance and not be asked to pass something like that in three or four minutes. Councillor Nicks replied the commissioner would not be al- lowed to go ahead and pledge the town until after the industry signs that it is coming. He charged council should be behind the Commission -- giving it a big push like it needs to help get industry into Bowmanville. Councillor O. J. Presson said he would like to get a little more cleared up in terms of dollars and cents what the industrial growth potential is -- what is the ratio, what industry expects to in- vest -- what should the town' ex- pect in return, he questioned. Industrial Commissioner K. N. Morris stated it was only proper that council should establish the rules under which he and the Commission shall operate. WORTH SERVICING the opinion an industry whose annual tax payments would rep- resent 25 or 30 per cent of the service debenture cost to the town is worth servicing. There is "In the Commission we are of |nothing between them and E. Hughes passed unanimously. cordingly after new suggested rates for garbage collection were approved by the finance commit- 'ee and forwarded to couneil. The new rates for garbage col- lection were set at $1 per month for residential collection and $2.25 a month for commercial collec- tion. In addition to the regular week- ly collection there will be three free special collections a year but for all other special pick-ups the fee will be $6 per hour with a minimum fee of $1 for a resi den'ial pick-up and a minimum fee of $2 for a special commer- cial pick-up. Clerk R. B. Reynolds told eoun- cil instead of the garbage bills being sent out with hydro bills and being collected they would now be sent out along with tax bills from town hall and be col- lected there, NEW SYSTEM Under the new system the garbage collection fees may be paid in four installmen's along with taxes. The new type gar- bage bill is similar to the tax bill and will have the garbage collection bylaw printed on it. Unlike taxes, there will be no discount for advance payment of garbage faes. Mr. Reynolds told council the cost for garbage collection to 'he town during 1959 totalled $25, 378.49 and the accounts recelv- Old Lexicon Of Photius Discovered SALONICA, Greece (Reuters) New light is expected to be thrown on classical Greek au- thors by the discovery of a com- plete manuscript of the lexicon of the patriarch Photius who lived in the ninth century AD. able a ed to only $22,765.53. Will Amend Garbage Plan the packer depreciation of $3008 leaving a net deficit of $5612.96. With the new cost of garbage collection it is estimated $26,500 will be receivable this year and the estimated cost to the town will be $26,143. According to Mr. Reynolds the saving of approximately $2000 will be accomplished by free spe- cial pick-up being reduced and the billing done at town hall, The Increase in cost of collec- tion will be due to deprecia"on of the Sanivan which has not been charged in previons years and in addition will be dne to wage increases, Mr. Reynolds told council, COST GIVEN The clerk stated the town could not send two men out on the gar~ bage truck to do special pick-ups and have the other residents in town have to pay for it. For that reason the cost of special pick. ups has been increased. Councillor Wes Fice: wanted to know how many pick-ups the stores get for $2.25 a month, He was told they would just get the regular weekly pick-up for that price and any more would be charged as a special pick-up at the $6 an hour fee or a minimum of $2 would be charged. He con'ended the stores would become lax about having their garbage moved at that price but was told they are doing it now for the same amount, Included in the bylaw which raises the garbage collection fee is a clause which states for non payment a fine not exceeding and costs may be levied by a ma- This left a deficit of $2612.96 plus gistrate with jurisdiction, By MRS.
