2 THE OSHAWA TIMES, Thuredey, October 31, 1963 GOOD EVENING By JACK GEARIN * OSHAWA PROTESTS PROPOSED HARBOR BILL ; Speaking of harbors (and who isn't, these days?): City Solicitor Edward G. McNeely was in Ottawa Wed- *nesday to oppose a proposed Federal bill that would overhaul 'the administration of Canadian harbors. The bill already thas passed two senate readings; specifically, it would empow- er the Cabinet to make all appointments to harbor commis- _ sions, deprive municipalities of representation on them. : This would seem grossly unfair for a City like Oshawa which has a sizeable stake ' in the harbor and its develop- ent, including approximate- 'ly 40 acres loaned to the Commission on a long-term agreement for 25-year ren- tals, etc. | Whitby's harbor -- unlike : Oshawa's -- is administered by a nine-man committee un- der Chairman George Rich- ard Brooks, All are appoint- ed by Town Council (two of Oshawa's three commission- ers are named by Ottawa, the other by City Council). The list automatically in- cludes civic officials such as the mayor (His Worship Stanley Martin). It also includes, above all people, a representative of » TORONTO (CP) -- Members work load with little fuss Wed- prospect of The government of Premier called the special session to deal federal government's $400,000,- barts was expected to take the vening the legislature early in Besides passing the govern- the reconstitution of select com- cipal law generally, Ontario's $138,000,000 share of fund.

Although the money is pm- vided by the federal govern-' ment the Ontario government will control its disbursement through the Ontario Municipal Board and the municipal affairs department. Municipal A f fairs Minister Spooner said after the session that he expects some municipal projects to be approved within the next 10 days, In the legislature Fred Young (NDP--Toronto Yorkview) and Vernon Singer (L -- Toronto Downsview) had expressed the fear that there would be too much delay in administering the new fund to make it: useful in producing jobs this winter, Donald C. MacDonald, leader of the New Democratic Party, made an attempt to include in the bill authorization for the On- tario government to loan muni- cipalities the one-third of the cost of their special projects not provided by the federal fund, But he was ruled out of or- _jcause he Ontario MPPs Breeze Through Work Load {red memes Sika: am aa Mr. Spooner r) : said the fund was to combat unemployment, and this' was a responsibility of the fed- eral government. Reconstitution of the commit- tee on municipal law was crit-' icized by Mr. Singer and Mr. MacDonald, both of whom said! a committee made up of poli- ticians was not the way to re- vise the many acts related to! municipalities. Revising municipal acts was essentially a technical matter that should be left to the ex- perts, not politicians, they sug- gested. Mr. Singer said the commit- tee has been meeting for two years and has made two re- ports, but none of its recom- mendations has been acted upon. Premier Robarts' an- swered that he expects the com- mittee to complete its work this year, Mr, MacDonald said the com- mittee might do better to study the idea of creating larger units of government out of the many der in committee by Chairman small municipalities. Drury Plan Splits annually gets a-sizeable chunk of Federal harbor contracts across the country. Mayor Martin said this week that the Harbor committee had done "a remarkable job" of late to increase wharf ton- nage and that prospects looked good for 1964. Whitby had about eight ships this year, including two RCN training-ves- sels. LONG-RANGE INVESTMENTS FOR FUTURE? When people sometimes complain about heavy. Federal expenditures on harbors, especially smaller operations where marine traffic is comparatively light, Ottawa defends them their normal capital works. Two-thirds of the cost of such Bomber Gets Three Year Jail Term MONTREAL (CP) -- Pierre with such catch-phrases as 'long-range investments for future trade development," pointing out that harbors are not built, or their operations fully organized without long and careful planning. Preparedness for tomorrow is the keynote of such expansive plans. As an indication of such preparedness, Ottawa spent more than $1,000,000 on Whitby harbor in a three. or four-year period ending in 1960, Ottawa has spent more than $775,000 on Oshawa Harbor in the past three years, including a $500,000 500-foot east-side cement wharf installation in 1962. Ottawa has not published any figure on the total assets of the Oshawa Harbor, but there has been a sizeable upswing in business. Land rentals increased by 66 percent in three years, from $10,000 to more than $18,000. Under the heading of Revenue (for period ending Decem- ber 31, 1962) harbor dues jumped $1,390 from $529 in 1961. Top and side wharfage reached $23,453 from $11,714. Leases show a healthy upswing to $12,957 from $4,350, Total gross revenue in 1962 was $37,877 as compared with $16,730. 58 BOATS VISIT HERE UP TO OCTOBER 19 Under Expenditures for 1962, commissioners' expenses Sc , 19-year-old office boy, was sentenced to three years in prison Wednesday for causing bodily harm through criminal negligence and placing ing projects above and pt Auto Pp arts Firms | WINDSOR, Ont.

But companies that showed initiative and ingenuity should find hith- erto closed markets open to them.

The concern expressed by some parts makers is that a few big parts firms will get most of the new business while mater and less efficient ones will suffer a loss of tariff pro- tection, Government officials concede there are risks as well as op- portunities for industry in the incentive program. But they emphasize that duty remissions--and thus a reduc- tion in tariff protection--will only occur if there is an in- crease in business for the parts manufacturers. Mr. Drury underlined advan- tages to the parts manufactur- ers: Wider markets, plus the benefits of -- and more eco- nem hyp rig runs enabling lower costs an 'eater co - titiveness. * en _ "The rewards can be substan- tial for those who are willing to participate fully," He said the plan is "entirely consistent" with Canada's trade agreement commitments. nm an obvious reference to United States threats of retalia. tion if the plan violates the rules of the General Agreement on Tariffs and Trade, Mr. Drury said Canada always has be- lieved in adhering to GATT pro- visions and will continue to do 80.

It had 58 cargo boats up to and including last October 19, including 18 gas and oil tankers, 38 coal boats and two stone carriers -- a ployee, all of whom had pleaded guilty earlier to public mischief.

ROAD LEADS TO HARBOR WHARF The Oshawa Harbor Commissioners bought 6.07 acres of what they called 'strategic land from Mayor Lyman Gifford last May for $36,400 cash, or $6,000 per acre. This land was long sought by the Commissioners for @ much-needed approach road to the new 500-foot east wharf. When Mr. Gifford and the Commission could not get together on price, Mr, Gifford suggested that the matter be submitted to an expropriation board. 'I know I would get my price, even more -- I was offered $24,000 for a three-acre site nearby, but I couldn't sell because it would block my residence from the road," he said. The Department of Transport approved the price. : Ottawa likely realized that the now-defunct National Prop- rietary Corp. Ltd. -- which previously held an option on the 125-acre Gifford farm, including the above 6.07 acres -- would have asked that price at least. ' The City has installed the road. There is still space for oi] tank farms:on the 6.07 acres.
