And that even with all the requests of the citizens being granted. this policy was followed as closely as was possible. He said the town was most fort- unate to own the electric lignt plant and said that despite the in- crease in the cost of fuel and sup- plies and no change in the energy rate charge. this department show- ed a substantial profit.

Siaiions Oppose Radio Competition OTTAWA, Jan. 22 -tCPl- At least three radio stations-one in Ottawa, one in Edmonton and one in Kingston, Ont.--plan to apply foiulicences to operate television stations. This was disclosed today while the CBC board of governors heardv representations on applica- tions for four new radio stations. The applications came from New Glasgow. N. 5. Kingston, Ed- monton and Eastview. Ont. A fifth application for a station in Clover- dale, B. C.. was deferred until the next meeting at the request of the applicant--John N..l-lunt. All applications heard were op- posed and the board reserved de- cision. Mr. Dunton indicated the board's recommendations on the applications will be made public Monday. The Hector Publishing Company applied for a 250-watt station at New Glasgow, N. S. The station would be operated by a company headed by J. M. Ca-meron. publish- er of the weekly Eastern Chron- icle of New Glasgow. The application was opposed by Col. K. S. Rogers, owner of sta- tion CFCY of Charlottetown, and J. C. Nunn. representing station OJFX of Antigonish. N. 5. Mr. Dunton said that two years ago the board was not convinced that a station cotlld be operated successfully in New Glasgow. Mr. Cameron said he is confi- dent he could make s success with the station. A. M. Macintosh, counsel for Mir. Cameron. said there is room for an additional station in the area. Advertising commitments of 53.600 :1 month had been obtained for the first six months of the stations operation. The people of New Glasgow wanted their own station and they needed it to take care of the ad- ditional business available. Col. Rogers said the whole cause of private broadcasting could be lmperilled by many financially unsound stations. In the Mari- timas, he said, there already are 21 stations and ll daily news- papers to serve a comparatively small population. His station would be affected by a new outlet in New Glasgow and as a result would have,t.o reduce public scrices. He believed ex- perience would show that within six months a new station in New Glasgow would run into financial difficulties. Mr. Nunn said station CJFX would suffer and possibly lose its greatest market. About 26 per cent. of the station's shareholders were in New Glasgow. OTTAWA.

He said the Council was ap- proached somc time ago by the fertilizer company and a local con- cern to purchase part of this land which has been in the pouession of the town for the past 35 years and which the Town made no use of due to the fact that, being very low swamp ground. grading costs, would have been prohibitive, As both these firms signified their in- tention of starting new lndustrlcs.. the Council decided to sell, as itt has always been the policy of the Council to encourage and mist new industries in ,the town. No deed of either parcels of this land has been signed. as the fertil- izer company, being already 0533b- lished were given the choice of the land they required and the amount. As the Council has not received a definite reply as to their require- ments nnd due to the criticism of some citizens. he suggested that the Councll rescind the motion and the matter would be left over to the new Council. It had earlier been reported U139 Councillor Morrison's firm had been interested in one of these parcels of land on which he had intended to establish a new industry in Sum- merside which would emnl0.V !0V' eral men. Councillor Morrison stated that he felt that the deal should not be proceeded with in view of the crit- icism that had been made bv somc' people and he said that M: firm- wes definitelv not interested in t.l'". lot. He said that about 52,000.00 worth of clay had been hat-led and levelled on this lot and that he would make a gift of this to the Town. Mnyor Wedge and Councillor Sheen spoke strongly on the matter and said that they felt that if the facts had been known by those who were making the criticism that they might have had a different opinion on the matter. They felt that av-I erythlng possible should be done by the Town to encourage new indust- ries here. because each one would mean more employment and more men who revenue for the Town. , A motion of recommendation by Councillor Sheen. chairman of the Fire Department committee was approved by the Council.
