New Pastor Is Inducted Many of the congregation of Albert Street United Church gathered at the church Thurs-| SECOND SECTION day night to welcome the new minister, Rev. Albert E. Larke. An induction service was held in the church under the direc- tion of the Oshawa Presbytery. This was followed by a social hour and refreshments in the new church hall, where mem- bers of the congregation met Mr. and Mrs. Larke. Mr. Larke comes to Oshawa congregation from the Peter- borough area, where he minis- tered to the three rural congre- gations at Springville, Mount Pleasant and Fairmount United Churches for 10 years. Before that charge he was pastor at Gore's Landing for three years. Previous to that Mr. Larke served the United Church in Al- berta, with one exception, since he became a clergyman in 1919. The exception was the six years of service he gave as a chaplain for the Canadian Armed Forces during the Second World War. The wartime years took him to England, North Africa, Italy and the West Coast Defences of Canada. At one time he ministered to the Canadian Armored Division, to which the Ontario Regiment was attached. Mr, Larke said that he is looking forward fo a reacquaintance with Oshawa The Oshawa Times PAGE SEVENTEEN OSHAWA, ONTARIO.

In past years Mrs. ethics for elected municipal rep- warender told the convention Thomas has refused to go to the Mayors and Reeves annual get- together, charging that it was a social outing at which little work was done. RESOLUTION SCHECKED Her Worship served on the resolutions committee this year. This body sifts the many resolu- tions from municipalities all over Ontario, recommending ac- ceptance or rejection to the con- vention. | An Oshawa old-age-pensions resolution recommending a $75 a month pension for women at age 60 and for men at 65 was turned down by the convention as it went along with the resolu- tions committee's recommenda- tion. An amendment moved by resentatives, Mayor Thomas had this to say: "The elected representative's oath of office should be a guide| to his conscience. No written code will prevent a person from| {indulging in political immoral- ity. "That is within yourself.

At a meeting of the directors of the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce, Thursday, Presi- dent William Hart noted that the Oshawa Harbor Commis- § [sion has recently been under fire, "for dragging its feet", in the development of the Oshawa harbor. He asked harbor commis- sioner, and Chamber treasurer Fred Mulloy to report on the general activities of the harbor commission. Mr. Mulloy outlined plans for a yacht basin at the harbor, which will be used by pleasure craft, and told of the recent negotiations with the National Proprietory Corporation. The Harbor Commissioner said: "Oshawa Harbor Commission was founded in November, 1960, and proclaimed by parliament April 26, 1961. It is not a po- litical body but rather a con- sulting group to protect and further the public interests. "'Several senior executives of Department of Transport and Department of Public Works came to Oshawa last December to get us started, assist in de- veloping policy, acquaint us with the very valid reasons for commencing development of Oshawa Harbor, and to show us their planning for the next sev- eral years. "First we had several local problems with regard to ar- ranging for this summer's con- struction. PLAN YACHT BASIN "The plans for making Osh- awa Harbor into a commercial port prejudiced the future of Oshawa Yacht Club, Oshawa wishes to assist them wherever possible. "An immediate solution of this problem was not available. "However, the Harbor Com- missioners are now pleased to announce that plans have been completed with a well-known Oshawa resident for construc- tion of a completely equipped yacht basin, immediately north of the present harbor basin, and completely separated from the commercial traéfic of the har- bor. The future of Oshawa's vided for. "The Commissioners have re- {ceived numerous requests from {interests who wish to use the harbor and who want to lease land inside the harbor area. any of these. PLAN 10 YEARS AHEAD "The Department of Trans- port have shown us their econ- ombic reasons for planning fu- ture development of this harbor for 10 years ahead. Looking at blueprints of future plans, which are still confidential, De- partment of Transport could spend several million dollars on Oshawa Harbor development over that period. And there will be valid reasons for this. Whe- ther it comes quickly or slowly country.

Our decisions tie up the long term future. They must be right, "I have explained that all capital development of Oshawa Harbor is financed by Depart. ment of Transport from publie funds. It is not generally fed- eral policy, nor always in the public interest, to give long term leases for evclusive use of national developments, une less special circumstance exist to further public welfare, MEETING ARRANGGED "However, the harbor come missioners have continued their negotiations with National Pro- prietary Corp. until we have worked out more modified pro- posals which could be accept. able. We recently arranged a meeting with executives of this company and senior officials of Department of Transport in Ottawa. "It is unusual for a new har- bor development to be faced with so many and varied issues in its first few months. Gen- erally, harbor growth proceeds in a slow and orderly pattern. Your commissioners, under the able chairmanship of Sam Jack- son, and with the loyal work of Tom Rundle, were commended sincerely in Ottawa for their progress in handling the various situations which have devel- | oped.
