% THE OSHAWA TIMES, Wednesday, March 16 1960 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN SIMCOE N. GLORIFIED PARKING LOT Alderman Dafoe pinpointed a civic sorespot cently. He says too many cars are being parked on some streets for lengthy periods to the detriment of traffic and department of works snow clean-up crews. That was also the theme song of a recent Chamber of Commerce petition to Council. The Chamber wanted the city to convert a city- owned lot at the corner of Hillcroft and Simcoe streets --it has been vacant for 30 years--into a parking lot. The Chamber said this would ease the pressure on Simcoe street north between Alexandra and Ross- land road, which sector has been dubbed by many irate citizens as "nothing more than a glorified parking lot." Parking space is scarce there. The city rejected these reasons: The site is zoned residential. Money is unavailable for improving park- ing lots. This corner is required to eliminate a job between Buckingham and Hillcroft. Chambers President Herb E. Robinson the City's stand. He said the city could have this lot rezoned; also, that the city collects more than $25,000 annually from street parking and that this sum is to be used for "im- proved parking." Such a city-owned parking lot would be a profit- able venture, he said, and the elimination of the jog at this corner is unimportant as both streets are dead ends. Buckingham is only two blocks long, Traffic using this corner from Buchingham to Hillcroft does not war- rant the expenditure, he says. Some Simcoe street north residents complain that cars are parked there for days at a time, especially in the Alexandra-Rossland area. Such obstructions make this key artery one of the narrowest streets in Oshawa. Says President Robinson of the Hillcroft-Simcoe street lot: "This site has been an eyesore for more than 30 vears. Let's make sure it doesn't go to waste for another 30." UPCOMING ELECTIONS FOR LOCAL 222 The decks are being cleared in the political world of Local 222, UAW-CIO, for a major election March 24-26, inclusive. i That's when the chairman of the GM bargaining committee (the post now held by Nels Wilson) and seven district committee men will be elected. The election is of great importance because the successful candidates will represent the local when the next GM contract is negotiated in 1961. re- the proposal, giving scoffs at HN pel Toe ABDUCTED AND BEATEN Norman Spink, of Primrose street, Hamilton, a 68-year-old service _ station oper. ator was Canada Reviews and badly beatep | with armed bandits.

Nations, the North Atlantic] Sound Crop Insurance Suggested TORONTO (CP)--The chang-' ing agricultural scene has posed| new problems so complex that no single measure will effect a permanent cure, the Ontario Farmers' Union said in a brief| to the Ontario cabinet Tuesday. | The union called for adequate credit facilities, crop insurance and conservation plans, adequate] marketing legislation and--most| important--a realistic price sup- | port program. Agriculture Minister Goodfel-| low said the brief contained sev- eral important suggestions worthy of consideration by his department, The brief calls for a sound crop insurance plan to remove some of the risks created by the ele- ments, saying "such a plan must be administered by an impartial | board which is beyond the influ-| ence of politics and farm organ- izations.' WAIT FOR RESUTS | Because considerable contro- versy has arisen over federal crop insurance legislation, On-| tario should wait before entering | |into a scheme of its own until the federal autho:ilies ucve tne re- sults of a test program now be- ing undertaken in various prov- inces. Of price supports, the brief] says they should not interfere] with "normal supply and demand || conditions" and should leave pro-| ducers free to get as fair a price| for their products as possible themselves. The union also protested the trend towards vertical integra-| tion. The brief cites one feed company that has completely in- tegrated broiler" production | from a block which lays hatch-| ing eggs, "right through to the point where cooked chicken is| placed before the customer in his| restaurant or delivered to his| home." "If the law of the jungle pre-| vails and only the fittest survive, then it can be readily seen that| an ever-receding circle or owner- ship will result in complete con-| trol of production, processing and retailing falling under control of large corporations."

He wishes to remind one and all that males, 21 to 80, not assessed as pro- perty owners or tenants are liable for this tax. There seems to be a general idea that poll tax is collected solely from the ranks of the bachelors-- this is incorrect. 4 Some married men i ( especially newlyweds) not assessed as a tenant last year are subject to such a tax, he said. Those who have prob- 4 i lems on this matter should CLARENCE COX contact Mr. Cox.
