2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thursday, September 21, 1961 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN | JUDGE HALL "RESTING COMFORTABLY" | Judge Alex Hall is reported to be "resting comfort- ably" in the Oshawa General Hospital where he has been a patient since last Friday after a "mild coronary" " Mrs. Hall said today that His Lordship's condition | was "not serious," but that his doctors had ordered "a complete rest" for at least two weeks, during which time he is not to have visitors. Judge Hall was one of the busiest Crown Attorn=- eys in Ontario prior to his appointment to the Bench (for the County Court) last March 11 -- he fre- quently appeared as spec- jal prosecutor in sensa- tional criminal cases in jie Deal' 'No Political Action NDP Plan : " us Py Lk national "Union of Mine, Mill!

MOUNT TOPPLES ALDERMAN BRANCH Alderman Walter Branch, chairman of the of Works, is convalescing at home with a broken collar- bone and several ribs. He was hurt while horse-back riding at Banff, Alberta, recently during a lull at the annual convention of the Canadian Good Roads Associa- tion, which he attended with City Engineer Fred Crome. Mr. Branch was tossed from his mount on a steep incline after the animal's bridle reportedly slipped over its head, obscuring its view. He was in hospital at Banff for three days and returned here via Jet Tuesday. It is unlikely that he will be able to take his seat in Council for at least three weeks. Board LET'S FACE FACTS WITH INTERMART The National Proprietary Corp. Ltd. -- the holding company that would arrange for the development of Intermart, the proposed bonded warehousing and merch- andising mart project in Oshawa's harbor area -- did the expected thing Monday. It failed to live up to its option agreement with the City whereby it was to furnish proof of its ability to finance the first phase of the project ("comple- tion of the construction of a 700,000 square foot bonded warehousing mart"). This was NPC's second failure to live up to the agreement in four months, yet City Council did not slam the door in its face -- instead it called a meeting with the Oshawa Harbor Commission and NPC in an attempt to untangle the whole muddle, despite a plea from Alderman Wal- ter Lane to "call the whole DR. ALLAN WILSON thing oft". Council performed in its usual stumbling, indecisive manner ™ this NPC deal, Monday pretty much the way it did last January when the subject was first broached by NPC's Charles W. Magee, the energetic word spell~ binder who merits some kind of award (at least from NPC) for piloting the vast Intermart proposal through Council in the short space of six weeks. Council didn't bother to check NPC out at that time, to find out NPC's sources of financing (if any), or to ascertain who its principal would-be investors were. There was good reason to believe Monday that Coun- eil is still without this vital information. Alderman Edgar F. Bastedo has frequently display- ed strong reservations about NPC, regardless of his careful, precise legal language; when a proposal was made last January that the City allow its name to be used on a colorful NPC brochure for wide circulation, he objected because he thought it unwise for the City to be associated in this way with what he termed "a promotional enterprise," but he was soundly outvoted. He also made valuable contributions to stop-gap legal clauses in the NPC agreement for the protection of the City. Mr. Bastedo brought out Monday that NPC has not yet furnished proof of its financial backing. Alder- man Albert V. Walker established that the corporation has not yet furnished a list of company officers. Mayor Christine Thomas said she wanted "free and open discussion" on Intermart but that open Council (at least last Monday) was not the place for it. Her Worship may be on sound ground in exercising such caution, but the public is pretty well fed up with the air of secrecy surrounding the entire project, especially that part which has to do with financing Intermart. Dr. Allan C. Wilson, NPC's scholarly president, may have impressed the unitiated in his dinner speech befre the Oshawa and District Real Estate Board re- cently, but he was anything but satisfying in supplying pertinent information to which the public is entitled. Dr. Wilson did little more than attempt to becloud the entire Intermart issue with an unfair attack on the Oshawa Harbor Commission which has, in its infancy days, been asked to settle 'grave problems that could seriously affect the long-term picture of the harbor. |plies and restrictions on thelgress and the United Steelwork- BROADLOOM from officers of the rebel Sud- Maybe Showers Royal York But Still Forecasts issued by the Tor- onto weather office at 5 a.m.: Synopsis: The high - pressure area that has stagnated over Ontario during the last few days continued to provide pleasant weather over most of the prov- ince although light winds and lear skies have resulted in con- siderable fog this morning.

Papers Again Main Medium MONTREAL (CP) -- Newspa- pers have regained advertising revenue lost to television and now are leading medium for ad- vertising, R. A. Barford of Tor- onto, general manager of the Canadian Daily Newspaper Pub- lishers Association, said Wed- nesday. He spoke at a meeting of the Newspaper Advertising Manag- ers' Association of Eastern Can- ada J. Warren McClure, lisher of the Burlington (Vt.) Free Press, said United States retailers invest 10 times more in newspaper advertising than co-pub fo say that some of NPC's proposals were unrealis- in TV and six times more than tic and unnecessarily demanding is to make the under- statement of the year, NPC wanted these problems settled almost overnight. As an indication of the commission's good faith in assisting NPC, it has held more than 20 meetings since February with the corporation. When Chairman Sam Jackson of the Harbor Com- mission says of NPC: "They won't tell us a thing and they won't commit themselves on anything" he is mak- ing the understatement of the year. In reply to a question from the floor at a June meeting of the Oshawa C of C, Mr. Magee stated that NPC had no financing problems ("We have all the money we need," he said "We have never yet asked for money"). This statement is at variance with one made later by Dr. Wilson to this department (via long distance tele- phone from Toronto) when he stated quite candidly that NPC was in the process of attempting to raise funds for Intermart financing. Mr. Bastedo brought out Monday. that the City's agreement with NPC was null and void because of the company's failure to pick up its option for the second time -- this means that the City would have to draw up an entire new agreement the. event it decided allow NPC to continue with its proposed development of Intermart to in radio William Erskine, vice-presi- dent of the J. Walter Thompson advertising agency, suggested newspapers should give up some of their "individuality" to sell more advertising space.

He was acquitted after ev- idence showed he had been shot four times with a re- volver, struck over the head by a black jack, kicked in the face and body and had had both ears boxed simul- taneously by the officer. Greenock is 67. The complainant, Consta- ble Roland Daigle, 22, of suburban Lafleche said that when he went to Greenock's house last May 27 to inves- tigate a dog bite, Greenock became violent after the of- ficer had had difficulty wak- ing him up. 'Talk Futile TAPANTO (CP) -- Bitterness prevailed on both sides Wednes- y after the latest attempt to settle a prolonged strike of em- ployees at the Royal York Ho- tel. Hotel management and the Hotel and Club Employees Un- ion (CLC) got nowhere at a meeling Tuesday arranged by Premier Frost. No further ses- sions were held Wednesday. Hotel Manager Angus Mac- Kinnon said the talks were "fu- tile' because the union, on strike since April 24, "continued to maintain its unrealistic posi- tion." ! Archie Johnstone, union vice- president, agreed the talks were futilé but put the blame on the hotel's "dictatorial attempt to impose sanctions on the union for being engaged in a legal strike." Mr. MacKinnon did not attend Tuesday's meeting. He said the union was nego- tiating as if the strike had not yet happened, while the union now has been out five months and the hotel is operating suc- cessfully. SOME WON'T BE REHIRED Mr. MacKinnon said "all key employees" have returned to {the hotel, but that the union "must also recognize that many of the people still on strike will never return to the Royal York" because some will not be needed and others have had their jobs filled "more efficiently" by new employees.

Sels- Inflicted Wounds Fatal TORONTO (CP)--Gilles Nolet, 28, alias Jerry Mallett, wanted in Montreal on a charge of at- tempted murder, died Wednes- day in Toronto's St. Michael's hospital as a result of a self- inflicted gun wound suffered Monday night. Nolet fired five revolver shots from a rooming house window when Constable Leslie Showers and a detective squad ap- proached to serve an arrest warrant. One of the shots struck Showers in the arm. When detectives closed in they found Nolet lying with a gun- shot wound in the chest. F. R. BLACK 0.D.
