MANY COMPLAIN Town Tackles Road Prob ALLA LALS WHITBY (Staff) -- Swamped with protests over the condition of Dundas St. E., since widen- ing of the road began town council ordered a joint meet- ing with the contractors. A report of that meeting was tabled before council last night; but counciiiors: were stiiiun- happy. They demanded that another meeting be held to sort out the difficulties that have arisen. At the first meeting a guar- antee was given that the con- tractors would improve the road surface for passing traf- fic and do more to allay the dust situation. SIDEWALKS The town also requested, and) got, a guarantee from the department of highways that sidewalks would be built on} both sides of 'Dundas St. E. by| the time school opens in the) fall. The sidewalks down between the will be Four put Cor- fou Charged | As Disorderly | Four men were arrested and charged with disorderly con- duct following three separate) incidents in the city last night.)

' Council had expressed worry that the sidewalks, would not be finished by the time school opened for the new term. "Work," said Mayor Des- mond Newman, "is now pro- gressing well on the sidewalks and they should be finished well in time for the new school year." At the meeting the contrac- tors, King Paving, said they had met with many delays an@ frustrations over the project due to the fact that the con- tractor for the PUC had not been through with his work when the highway widening pro- ject was started. The department of highways, at the meeting, was also asked to supply to the council a list of the house and _ business driveways that will have to be re-graded due to the highway project. King Paving was asked to give the town a _ construction program so it could be up to date with construction. Another meeting was de- manded and a date is to be set for the near future. Councillor Harold Slichter, who runs a business on Dun- das St., complained that he was not satisfied with the work the contractors were doing with the drains. "Outside my house they put it just two feet down,"' he said. "Come the winter and _ that et Wilh Not everyone is blas Beatles.

The firm has agreed to sub- mit its preliminary report prior to Nov. 15. and its final report by Dec. 31, 1966.

"If this is the way things are being done then we might as well lay the drains our- selves," Mayor Newman said that if the public wanted to bring mat- ters concerning the project to council's attention they should do so immediately. Magistrate Cracks Down On Under - Age Drinking An Oshawa magistrate has declared he is cracking down} on under-age drinking. And to prove the point he sent two 19-year-old youths to jail for 30 days in Oshawa court Monday.

"North America and other countries of the 'free' world are supposed to acknowledge the right of speech without fear or persecution," said 18-year- old Larry Brennan. He said the moves made by some radio stations and organ- izations to ban Beatle music "because of their views' is going against the policies of free speech. He and his two other angry young friends marched into the Times' newsroom to protest against discrimination against the Beatles by radio stations, nounced the beatics as traitors for their remarks, the boys had this to say: "How could anyone betray religion when there are so many different views that one could not make a statement on religion without offending someone."" "If John Lennon made a statementeither for or against religion, that does not make him a traitor," The boys were quick to point out the economical boost the Beatles have given their home- land. "How can they be traitors to Great Britain when they have done more for the country than any other group since 1960," being so popular thing else," he said. "I don't think the Beatles can sing; not one among them has a great voice, but they should be allowed to say what they want," said Ian Smith, 16 The Beatle _ controversy ignited when one member of the four man vocal group, John Lennon, was quoted as saying the group is more popu- lar than Jesus and that he didn't know which would die out first, Beatle fans or Christi- anity. An explosive, public reaction has since set in with many verbal blasts against the group and bans against their records. study, j include amalgamation with the |town of Whitby in which there | would be complete pooling of | services; annexation of part of | the township by the town with |an urban growth forecast to the year 2000; the annexation by |Oshawa of the whole or part }of the corridor area and the township remaining as it is at present, Reeve John Dryden said the report would enable the town- ship council to approach the question of amalgamation intell- igently, with all the facts at its finger tips.

It will be a two-fold visit for the Ontario Prime Minis- ter as he will also attend a citizens' luncheon that day in honor of Col. R, 8, Me- Laughlin, who will celebrate his 95th birthday. T. L.

The purpose is to establish shelter protection in the larger! buildings. "Due to the fact that it is| very difficult to motivate peo- ple to provide home shelters for their own use and the im- practibility of doing so in some) houses, especially apartment) buildings, EMO realizes this} is necessary," said Col. -F>"S; Wotton, director of EMO in| Oshawa and Ontario County. | | "Results of the survey will) be very useful in rounding out civil emergency plans,' he said. "It is presently being pre- pared for consideration and acceptance by the 19 municipal councils within the County of Ontario, including the City: of Oshawa."" The survey began two weeks ago in the north end of the county in the- Lake Simcoe area. Uxbridge and Port Perry have been completed. The government has employ- ed university students for the summer months of surveying. NEW INSPECTOR Seizure Possible Without /Humane Society Inspector Wil- liam McDonald says he can break down a door and seize any animal without a search warrant. Mr. McDonald, who replaced Inspector Al Davidson in the area, says he will be on duty 24 hours a day "My job in Oshawa will con- sist of checking dog pounds, sales barns, riding stables or any place that handles ani- mals,' he said Mr. Davidson was granted a leave of absence from the On- tario County branch of the.

"The officials are coming to the roots of the operation," said LIKES SOIL TESTS SASKATOON (CP) "Soil tests are not infallible," says Dr. A. A. Rennie of the Univer- sity of Saskatchewan, but peri- odie tests enable a farmer to get a "prescription" of the fer- tilizer best suited for production of top yield and quality. He said nitrogen levels in stubble soil fluctuate widely from year to year, making annual testing de- sirable; but summerfallowed fields need a test only every five years or so. Col. F. S. Wotton, director of EMO, for Oshawa and Ontario County. "The officials pass on plans of operation to the various dis- tricts, but they have to see if these instructions work in the different municipalities," said Col. Wotton. "They are doing the field work of their operation right now, seeing how we interpret their instructions," he said. Those to visit the Ontario county, were R. B. Stock, act- ing director of EMO in. the province of Ontario and two representatives: A. J. Morrall, vice-principal of the EMO Col- lege and three of his senior personnel; and seven represen- tatives from Ottawa, EMO. The officials were there for a full morning, examining the Ontario County operation. EMO Offficials Visit Area seis 'During their stay, I present- ed the officials with a plan of control for the proposed civil emergency plan," said Col, Wotton. "As a result of the presenta- tion, there were three innova- tions which the officials noted and there will be a further in- vestigation for adaptation," he said. The three innovations under investigation for adaptation are: --Closed circuit TV, used presently only by Ontario coun- ty EMO.

He said council members elected by wards feel responsible only to the areas in which they are elected rather than to the whole municipality, Reeve Dryden said there are advantages to having the new municipality designated as a town rather than a city as cities do not get the preferren- tial grants townships do, If the area was designated as a city it would mean separation from the county. A ward system, he said, would ensure sparsely populated areas having rep- resentation, Band Leading Game Popular Ever get the urge to be a band leader?
