WIN SUPPORT Twrenty-eight Woodlawn avenue property owners won the support of the committee in their protest against any plan to sell wartime houses on the west side of Wood-lawn.

The owners said their contractor had told them the wartime houses would be removed after the war, and that they bought their homes on the basis of this promise. Controler Ernest W. Atkinson told them there was little chance that the wartime honses would be removed, although it was originally thought they would be. Aldermen Mrs. Cameron Montrose, Robert J.

Newell and Herman Bradley supported a motion that the houses not be sold The owners felt that once the houses were sold there would be no chance of their removal. OBJECT STRENUOUSLY They objected strenuously to the promises of the contractor who had sold the permanent homes on promises and assurances that the wartime houses would be removed and asked the committee how action might be taken against the contractor. Mrs. Montrose suggested that they complain about the ethics of the contractor to the real estate board of Windsor. knew what were talking Mr.

The Windsor committee plans to have the Princess and Duke stop at beautiful St. Marys Anglican Church in Walkerville during the traditional Canadian Thanksgiving Day service.

Riggs, chairman of the committee, said the different opinions of what constitutes careless driving as expressed by Magistrates J. A. Hanrahan and A. W. MacMillan were leaving drivers and police alike in a quandary.

Magistrate Hanrahan has ruled, and been upheld on appeal, that speeds in the neighborhood of 60 miles an hour along city streets was careless driving, leaving drivers open to licence cancellations. Magistrate MacMillan recently gave his opinion that speed alone was not enough to warrant a careless driving conviction. I think that excessive speed Is at least careless driving, Mr. Riggs said. His opinion was echoed by Aldermen Maurice L.

George Doucett, minister of highways, Tecumseh Clerk W. V. Bouteiller reported today. 5-MILE STRETCH Sent to support of a similar motion passed by the Belle River Council, the resolution was passed in the hope the highway will be routed to the south of the Canadian National Railway tracks for the five-mile distace between Puce and Tecumseh. Such action would eliminate two level crossings one at Tecumseh and one just west of Puce where several bad, accidents have taken place.

Heavy Belle River traffic uses the highway while coming to Windsor. Many Tecumseh residents also travel the road extensively. Approximate cost of the new highway would be $125,000. TOO NARROW The resolutions point out the present highway crosses the rail way tracks twice is too narrow for the amount of traffic using it and passes too close to the Puce public school. i At present, drivers approaching Windsor cross to the north side of the tracks just west of Puce and back to the south side of the tracks at Tecumseh.

The resolutions request a new highway following the south side of the tracks to eliminate the haz ardous conditions encountered on the present highway. Possibility that Tecumseh and Sandwich East may get together to renumber their steets in line with Windsor was foreseen at Tecumseh councils Monday evening meeting, when Mayor Thomas C. Scott and Clerk W. V. Bouteiller were authorized to go before the next meeting of the Sandwich East Council to discuss the situation.

Sandwiclf East extended an invi tation to Tecumseh last month to send delegates to a Sandwich East council meeting to discuss the situation after Tecumseh council broached the subject. Riverside has also been Invited to discuss the possibility of having the street numbers of all three suburban municipalities conform with the Windsor street numbering ssytem. No reply has been received from Riverside. Sandwich East renumbered its streets in line with Windsor as far east as the C.N.R. spur line in 1941 The two-mile stretch from the tracks to the Tecumseh border remains unnumbered.

A cleaning woman aaw a man go into the office shortly after 8 a.m. today. Police are searching for the ransacker.

At the request of R. J. Des-marais, city engineer, the resolution was expanded to include regulations for all city employes.

Any regulations should apply to all of us. There is no reason, for example, why a garbage collector should be fired for drinking on the job and I shouldnt, Mr. Desmarais said. Tangled with the refugee investigation came a decision to set up a position of sanitary superintendent to work under the engineer, and a recommendation to the police commission that a staff of police officers be charged with the enforcement of city bylaws.

If the union knows, it wont tell, he said. The inspector we propose to appoint will get our full -support and he will be able in short order to find if malingerers are being protected, Mr. Deziel said.

John Kolody, president of the union, and the man who signed his name to the charges, and Ernie Browning represented the union at the meeting. UNIONS EXPLANATION Mr. Browning had an involved explanaaion for the charges. The reasoning of the union went like this: Charges were made by control board members (mainly Controler Atkinson) that garbage men were drinking, malingering and abus-ing'Tsick leave privileges. If this was happening, went the reasoning, someone must be protecting the gold bricking employes.

So from this deduction came the charges, which Mr. Browning said, looked stronger in print than was the intention. There was no backing down by I lasa 'U. if Ask Opinion On Garbage Vi y. Frf OCv xX-t SLJtZ' -W thought the contract system might answer Windsors problem.
