Landymore Capt. NAVY MAKES SEA AND SHORE APPOINTMENTS By Paul M. Dunn Citizen Staff Writer Federal government employees have become members of a shrinking service, and may soon find their promotion chances stifled. The current job-freeze policy resUts in the Civil Service decreasing at a rate of 1,000 to 1.200 employees a month through normal "separations" (deaths, retirements and employees leaving for outside jobs.) This drop of some 10,000 a year although certain "must" categories are filled is likely to affect promotion opportunities although the Civil Service Commission reports no noticeable tightening up yet. The government's announced austerity program is aimed at cutting expenditures.

To this end it has indefinitely deferred wage increases to 50,000 of its employees and initiated its tight job program is lifted as the government may find itself water logged in oceans of paperwork piling up on vacant desks.

Imports Civil Servants driving to work at Confederation Heights are unhappy with the prohibition of left turns from the Bronson Avenue Bridge onto Riverside Drive. With the opening of the new Riverside Drive bridge over the CPR railway west of Bronson Avenue, motorists had hoped the straight route to work would lessen driving time. Now they find the long way around, via the Walkley Road, is still the only way. while United States authorities attempt to live with the disease. Canada already limits imports of kve American hogs to a trickle of breeding stock, which has to go through 30-day quar antine.

By Arch MacKcnzie Canadian Press Staff Writer Doubt is expressed in Ottawa that the government will slap an embargo on imported American raw pork because of the current hog cholera outbreak in central Canada.

So far, government compensation based on the current market value for each slain animal is a far cry from the $1,750,000 paid in the 1961-62 outbreak in Ontario and Quebec, when animals were destroyed and a severe quarantine placed on four Quebec counties.

Real-estate developers in the area are not so sure. Thursday night they raised the question as to just where public roads leading to the river beach end.

Council questioned whether any owner could have possession of the land to the low-water line and thus the right to sell it.

They will instruct their legal advisers to search the registered titles of land in the area to determine whether or not a legal title to the beach can be Durable corduroy upper. Plaid, Cherry Red with Black, Gold with Black, and Loden Green with Black. Sizes 4 to 9. Regular 1.97. Eaton's 10 a.m.
