Reeve Wilfred Dean of Mark- ham Township was made a “guinea-pig" last week. He, with Reeve A. M. Campbell and Councillor Ernest Gerow of Scarboro, boarded a one-car die- sel “dayliner†at Agincourt to ride to Toronto Union Station - a trip which was accomplished in 18 minutes. At the time they left Agincourt a car driven by C. A. McKay of the Scarboro Township office also started on a trip to the Union Station, tak- ing 45 minutes. The journey which made use of the regular morning train leaving Havelock at 5.25 and} which picks up commuters from Markham, Stouxffville and Un- ionville, was sponsored by the Agincourt Ratepayers Associa- tion. Its purpose was to prove the speed and efficiency of a railway commuter service. The association is pressing the Can- ‘adian National Railways to run for a sufficient distance to have a chance of making a profit. The railway, on the other hand, is planning to drop its present evening train, replacing it with a special commuter train which will take care of IMarkham, Stowffville and Un- ionville passengers. It says it will not operate the train un- less it can be run at a profit. Ratepayers contend that with the limited run this is impos- sible. A Board of Transport Com- missioners hearing will be held at Lindsay on September let and 22nd to decide on the fate of the trains. Ratepayers will claim that an adequate commuter service, as demonstrated by the trip made by Reeve Wilfred Dean and others, would lead many per- sons to make use of it instead of driving their cars.

He Concerning the required dis- posal plant, Reeve Perkins said while a report had been receiv- ed from the Ontario Water Re- sources Commission further consultation is necessary before any cost ï¬gures or recommend- ations can be given to council. He said assurance has been given that permission can be obtained for the required dis« posal plant. Following the reading of a letter from D. H. Storms, Pres- ident of the York Central Hos- pital Board, Mayor Haggart sug- gested council give some direc- tion to the works committee as it was important that there be no delay in plans for the build- ing of the much needed hospi- tal. “The Hospital Board under the leadership of Mr. Storms has done an excellent job in planning the hospital and se- curing county co-operation in ï¬nancing but someone must as- sume responsibility for the ser- vices," said Mayor Haggart.

White that the works committee must com-e up with a more detailed report on the needs of the hos- pital and the proposed construc- tion and estimated cost before the matter could be discussed intelligently. disposal plans. The whole plan must be worked out in co-oper- ation with Vaughan Township and the Ontario Water Resour- ces Commission, and it will take some time, Mr. Perkins said. to get estimates of various propos- als. There have been suggestions that Richmond Hill should an- nex the area where the hospital will be built. other suggestions that the annexation should in- clude a larger area and that resulting development would help pay costs of necessary plant construction. Councillor Broadhurst said that while a hospital is desir- able in many ways there are dis- advantages too. The hospital is exempt from taxes, and the large number of families mov- ing here to staff the institution would mean more children for our schools. He thought the hospital should pay for services. as Richmond Hill taxpayers pay their share into county levy for hospital grants. In the meantime the works committe will go ahead with the survey of the Trench Street ex- tension and the investigation and study of hospital require- ments for services.

This. he said, would enable the owners to re- ‘sell them with a reasonably low ‘down payment on one mortgage. ‘He said at present the lower income bracket purchaser finds that he has to carry two mort- gages with the low down pay- ment which renders the monthly carrying charges beyond his ab- ility to pay.
