-*-** : Eden Believes • • • War Deterrent Large Forces With Conventional Arms No Longer Hove Some Significance, f.M. Tells PC Group LONDON (neuters') — Prime Minister Eden said Wednesday that the hydrogen bomb is so great a deterrent that large forces with conventional arms no longer have the same'significance they once had. In a speech to a Conservative women's rally here he said these "changed circumstances" should be taken into account in all military *%: /537 Vol. 55 planning. He said that where the ultimate deterrent of the H-bomb is present "large forces confronting each other with all the panoply of gun and tank and ' supporting arms have have not the same significance as once they had. , "Effective defensive arrangements quite clearly there must be. Precautions must be taken. No one should drop their guard. Nor should they be asked to. "But the deterrent is the determining factor in that guard. NEW PLANNING INVOLVED "Now that the significance- of this is more widely . understood, the time has surely come when all military planning should take account of the changed circumstances which the deterrent itself has brought about." Eden said that possessed of these awful weapons the great powers 'must conclude "that conflict between them is unthinkable because it is suicide on a world scale." Eden's remarks lent credence to recent reports that Britain was on the brink of a reassessment of her whole system of national defence. The prime minister said' he is confident tljat the conference of Commonwealth prime ministers which opens in London in two weeks will make its special con tribution to peace and understanding in the world. . Eden referred to criticism of an earlier speech at Norwich* in which he said Britain needed the Mediterranean colony of Cyprus to reach and defend her oil resources. "Many millions of British capital and years of British skill and effort, have been invested in the oil industry in friendly countries to whom we are bound by treaty relations and for whose defence we have obligations," he said. "The critics say that we shall only be called upon to fulfil these obligations in a world war. "I am not so sure. In any event no responsible government in this country would be prepared to run that risk."

NEW YORK (AP)—It was the hottest day of the year in New York Wednesday, and Santino J. Cantalupo blamed the heat for his argument with a policeman. Cantalupo, 44, returned to his new convertible to find it decked with a parking ticket. Up the street, he saw a policeman sauntering along the baking sidewalk, ticketing other cars. Cantalupo eased into gear and pulled up by the policeman. "I got three tickets from *you last week and that's the last summons you're going to,give me" he shouted. "Let's you and me go down to the back of the fish sheds and settle this man to man." Instead, he and the cop -went to the station house where Cantalupo was charged with disorderly conduct. It was cooler in there and he. apologized for his loss of temper. Tien he was told that the policeman he challenged, six feet two and weighing 210, was once the light heavy weight Jjojdng champion of the United States Army. 9 • 11111111 Ill 11111111111111 1111111111 f 11111111111111111 r 11M f 1111 [ 11! 11111 TWHOURSTO FREE BRAKEMAN VALLEYFIELD,' Que.

Strawberry Patches Staging Comeback CRESTON—Strawberry patches look. better as the season progresses, and it appear* likely that a fairly good crop will be harvested, mostly from plants which are producing tljeir second crop, the latest bulletihg from the office of J. W. Swales, District oHrticultur- ist here, states. Last November's frost dealt a savage blow to district patches. Raspberries are in full bloom and crop prospects are good in the Creston Valley. In the Koote- hay-Lower Arrow Lake district the raspberry crop will be only fair. FRUIT SIZING Tree fruits are sizing well. At this time the cherry crop is estimated at approximately 60 per cent of the four-year average. The Mcintosh crop is estimated at slightly less than average, while the Delicious crop is estimated at approximately 60 of the four-year average. In orchards where control sprays have not been applied or where they have not been applied correctly, apple scab infection is evident on the trees, but, generally speaking, apple scab appears to be well under control. Insects are causing more concern than diseases on tree fruits so far this year and leaf roller, blister mite, black cherry aphid, green apple aphid, bud moth and rust mite are fairly general. Vegetable crops are making good growth. Root maggots are causing more damage than usual this season and losses in such crops as cabbage, cauliflower and onions have been heavy where adequate control meaures were not carried out.

Then a group of nine tiny girls came on in "Robin Redbreast" costumes, doing a gay little tap dance, and circling about a scarecrow at the side of the stage. The little "robins" were Linda Munroe,! Marlee ,Trischuk, Eleanor Fink, Laura and Linda Henderson, Lois Christenson, Heather and Roberta Marken, and Wendy Paterson, while Lanny Rourke was the realistic scarecrow who also presented a solo dance number. Three ambitious young farmers wielding rakes as they danced among the robins and flowers completed the "springtime" portion of the ballet. The three farmers were Bruce Denneus, Kirk McMillan, and Ronnie Stre- lioff. The "summertime" dance depicted a blue sailing ship on a summer day, and was a group of the older girls dressed alike in blue costumes who gracefully tossed a billowy blue chiffon scarf in the air between them while performing graceful ballet steps. Done with changing lights, the dance was very effective. The girls were Cora Lea Anderson, Judy Thorndale, Bev Hyson, Beth McLeod, June Killough, Diane Duncan and Sharon Vanderberg.

This was also a graceful ballet dance, with yellow costumes and colored scarfs, with red and orange lighting bringing out the autumn colors. A solo dance by Joan Reed depicted the "Spirit of Autumn." The Winter season was represented by a "Dance of the Icicles," and was done by the same little girls who did the spring flower dance. Their little blue'dresses were spangled with glittering cellophane icicles. Four snow sprites dressed all in white joined them for a toe dance, which was prettily dpne by Beverly Pinck- ney, Louise Fink, Wendy Reith and Muriel Fink. The second part of the program was made up of variety selections in dance, and opened with a tap dance by the intermediate class. Three, jolly clowns performed and out. The actor is played by Jim Proud and the ballerina is Beth McLeod. The charwomen looked ludicrous as they endeavor to imitate the dancers' steps. Their second offering was a sprightly "'tap dance on dice," In which they prove they are experienced hands at the dance routine. Last on the program was a tap trio, featuring Joan Shields, Keith Muirhead and Jim Proud, then the dancers finished off the show with a song entitled "The Show Is Over." W. Walper, master of ceremonies, presented Mrs. Phillips with a bouquet, on behalf of the pupils, and Mrs. O. Proud, pianist, received a corsage. Fruitvale Graduate Going To Nelson FRUITVALE - Frank R.

Thursday, June 14, 1956 Our Sort of People A small news item on the Queen's visit to Stockholm mentions that an agreement has been reached between Britain and Sweden which allows Swedish national residents in Britain to make use of the British national health scheme, and correspondingly for Britons in Sweden to come under Swedish schemes. Much has been said of Britain's social welfare and health schemes, but little of similar schemes in other European countries, some of which are as complete as Britain's. But the remarkable feature of this news item ls that such a minor, and what seems a purely domestic matter, should be the. subject of agreement between two nations. Accustomed as we are to high level talks on such serious matters as disarmament and international water rights, it comes as a pleasant surprise to find that sometimes the health of their nationals can be the subject of agreement between countries. This leads the Vancouver Prov ince to say that the Scandinavians and the Dutch are our sort of people. Indeed they are, for their systems of government and their ways of thinking are much like ours. The editorial further suggests that they should be invited to join the Commonwealth. There is no reason why they should not, for the Commonwealth today is an amorphous thing with two republics and a number of countries which, like Canada, are no longer dominions and are certainly not kingdoms, joined in a loose confederation. They would be very welcome and it is a fascinating idea to have other monarchies in the Commonwealth. It is interesting, too, to note the changes which have taken place. Once it was the British Empire, then it became the British Commonwealth, but with India and Pakistan in it, it is no longer British. It is simply The Commonwealth'; an association of free and independent countries united in the belief that democracy is the best way of life for their peoples. Appealing, Fla& Suggestion After all this persistent discussion in the public press—after parliament has con- jidered a host of flag designs, wierd and Qlory of The Empire Sir Roger Makins, G.C.M.G.. K.C.B.. at St. Paul's Cathedral in Detroit spoke of the significance of Empire Day and of the achievements of the men and women who have gone out from Britain and. planting the British flag on distant shores, helped create new nations. The British Ambassador to the United States said: "This world-wide, centuries-old adventure must surely stand as one of the most remarkable accomplishments of human history. Sometimes in uninhabited or Bparsely- populated regions, these British pioneers have established new communities. Sometimes, working with indigenous races, they have helped existing communities to reach a level of education and development sufficient to sustain the responsibilities of nationhood In th« modern world. "This splendid mission, of which we are reminded today, Is an ever-changing one. It is nearly 100 years since the British North America Act, and the Empire has been evolving continuously ever since. "Experience has shown that British territories which have advanced from colonial status Into separate nationhood seldom turn their backs upon their British heritage. They prefer to remain as members of the Commonwealth with the Queen at its head. "In this comprehensive association they continue as equal partners to be guided in their domestic policies, and in their attitudes to the world scene, by those principles of justice and fair play which have been' so long and so deeply rooted among the English- speaking peoples. "They form with Britain a triangular bastion of strength and support for the free nations of the world. At this solemn service taking place at the gateway between the two countries, it is fitting that we should today be called to pray for those who exercise authority in the Queen's realms, and ask that, with God's grace, they should continue to be guided by those libera! and humane traditions which have turned a benevolent Emphe into a free Commonwealth."—Windsor Star. otherwise—it is left for that stormy petrel of politics. Senator Jean-Francois Pouliot, to come up with a suggestion for a Canadian flag that has greater appeal than any of its more elaborate and intricate predecessors. Unlike most of the sponsors of flag designs, Senator Pouliot is in no haste to see his flag adopted. So far as he ls concerned, Canada Is willing to wait, and he himself is content maybe 50 years hence to gaze down at the design from a point of vantage in an even better country. Before urging the design the senator has been trying it out these two years at his home at Riviere du Loup, where everyone driving to and from Gaspe, Including the prime minister, could see lt, and take umbrage if he—or she—so desired. Apparently nobody has taken umbrage, and the flag still flies. It has the virtue of a starkly simple design—a green maple leaf on a solid red background. That, and nothing more. Says Senator Pouliot: "We need a national flag, because Canada has grown up and Is a sovereign country. Red ,is flashy; it can be seen from far away. The leaf is green, because Canada is a growing country." And the senator wisely adds: "Until a truly national flag is adopted, the Union Jack at full size should be retained." But why wait fifty years—or rather till 50 years after Senator Pouliot passes on, which will mean, we hope, a much longer time—to take a logical first step, Why not, in the. meantime, combine our present Union Jack and the maple leaf on the red field in an ensign in which Canada can take pride? Many Canadians would not like to sefi the Union Jack eliminated from a national flag for this country.—Nanaimo Free Pres3.

The Pearly Kings of East London are coster- mongers (barrow boys), and the word ts usually abbreviated to coster. A Pearly King or Queen could be a cockney, but all cockneys are not Pearly Kings or Queens." Mrs. A. B., Nanaimo—Would you please print date ot year when drivers' licences were first issued?

There is every reason to trust them to do their alma mater honor —and their home land as well." From an Oldtimer's Notebook —:BY JL G. JOY— Historian, Nelson and District Olcltimers' Association « Conclusion of the J. O, Patenaude Story The committee, with the late Fred Starkey, commissioner of the Nelson Board of Trade, was requested to go to Mr. French's residence on Silica Street to listen to a voluminous type history of the French process as it was exemplified in the Kootenays and other parts of the world. Widdowson was not present. Starkey went'to sleep, snoring peacefully. Jones and I were apparently the only listeners. When Frencl) told the committee that the Standard Silver and Lead Company suggested building n model plant in the Slocan, Starkey awakened as one out of sleep, and after the committee recommended the idea Starkey endorsed it strongly. Later a mass meeting was held at the city hall, one of the best-attended in the history of Nelson The late J. A. Annable was chairman of the Board of Trade at that time. This beginning was a wonderful turning point in the history of the Kootenays for the solving of the problems of separating the complex ore of the Sullivan Mine and the Slocan ores. Various ques< tions were asked; one was, "What are you going to do with so much zinc?" Patenaude said, "Build bridges with the zinc." An indi vidual who was worse for liquor shouted, "Take no notice what Joy says; he's only a grocer." In my ex perience I have seen some ideas laughed at as nonsense, leaving me to quote the Biblical saying, "The stone that was refused is now the head stone in the corner." GOVERNMENT HELP Then the Board of Trade decided to ask the McBride government to provide sufficient money to build a model plant at Fairview, which was about' 100 feet from Lakeside Park. The late Hon. Mr. Bowser was appointed by Sir Richard McBride to inquire into the situation and report. This was about the time of the beginning of the first great war, and the demand for zinc was very great. Mr. Bowser came and I PHI mmmm. mW i ~ 1 Thcyll Do It Every Time KWECKEG WANKS IF HI5 FJ?AU WES MORE THAN THREE SHAKBL TO SM4P4 BE4UT1RJL SCENE •••■ YOU AtiD X3UR R4N6E FNDEPS -4MD LIGHT METERS- CMOM / 6WCOT IT AMD ©ET By Jimmy Hatlo 8UT WHEN WE& PROJECTING 54IO SHOTS FOR HIS FRIENDS HtfS EVEN S0UAMOBR**' Are Canadians making the best use of their recreation? asks the Windsor Star. "In European cities it is noticeable that parks or other open spaces are used more, and in somewhat different ways, than here. There park benches are filled by persons of all ages, enjoying the outdoors and the flower gardens. People stroll through the park6 in their hundreds. They are finding relaxation and pleasure. Our citizens perhaps need education* in how to use the recreation facilities, and be encouraged to do so." Music and Romance Music cah be the language of romance. Also, lt seems, a surfeit of it can be a barrier to romance. This was illustrated in London, England, where a man advertised for a wife who preferred an evening of good music to "kissing and cuddling in a park." He got nary a reply. Probably it was not 3ust the music the women didn't want. There are plenty who appreciate both music and masculine company. But they wouldn't go for any man who would completely subordinate their feminine charms to that of music. They reasonably would suspect something lacking in such a man. If the man had promised to sing sweet love songs to his wife as a prelude to kissing, he would have had more ample response. Music and romance are complementary; music alone isn't enough —Windsor Star. TODAY'S BIBLE THOUGHT And thou shalt be like a wat- ed.garden, and like a spring of water.—Isaiah 68:11. In hot dry countries like Palestine, gardens leap into fragrance and burst into flowering when abundantly waterfid. God's love is like water to thirsty ground. It beautifies us. CuwL M&L No man ever becomes so hard- boiled that praise won't soften him. the usual pros and cons were asked at a Board of Trade meeting. After much discussion, Bowser asked for an outline of the description of the process. Mr. French was not present. The industrial committee was present. We of course looked to Widdowson to explain. Both Jones and Widdowson called on the writer for a brief outline because I had given much time to the matter as a layman. I did so, and after thu meeting adjourned, the late James Johnson and others congratulated me for the manner ln which I outlined the process to Bowser. Then Mr, Bowser took back to Victoria a request for $100,000. Nelson got $80,000, The process was given a good exemplification at Fairview. The Consolidated had In the meantime hired Mr. French to supervise the construction of a pilot plant at Trail. Mr. French worked at It for a time, then was succeeded by the late Mr. Crulckshank, Consolidated chemist. The Cominco zinc is as pure as can be. We understand that Mr, Diamond's Improvements made by the various flotation processes for the Sullivan ores have also forwarded the success of the company. , I understand Mr. Patenaude and his company employed the French Complex Electrolurgical Process, but later it was revoked. Here is a sequel. The late Al Tregillus some time ago gave me a brochure publishing some history of the Slocan district. Among its contents was a short story on a group of ore buyers in the Slocan, questioning an English ore buyer as to how he managed to pay twice as much for zinc ores as the other buyers. His answer was, '"I am agent for a company which owns an electrolurgical plant on the banks of Manchester Canal." The brochure was published in 1897, long before Mr. Patenaude asked for his patent. Here is another story which the late Mr. E. Harrop, an old-time prospector, mine owner and merchant, told we when I was collecting biographies of pioneers and oldtimers: ZINC TO WALE8 "George, said he, "I often shipped 20 sacks at a time of zinc to Swansea, Wales, and when I was packing some zinc into the sacks, a pioneer was looking on, saying, 'Ernie, get an assay on that zinc for gold.'" After some argument, Harrop said, he did, and found fair values in -gold. Then Mr. Harrop wrote the Swansea smelter and lodged a com- SUasser Aims At Political Comeback MILTENBERG, West Germany (Reuters)—Otto Strasser, a former top Nazi and once one of Hitler's closest collaborators, has called his followers to this quaint Bavarian holiday town next Sunday to found a new party for an attempted political comeback. Strasser, who returned to Germany in March, 1954, after more than 20 years' exile, most of it in Canada, intends to contest next year's federal elections with his new party — the German Social Union (Strasser party). plaint. They sent him a cheque for $1000 for appeasement. When asking questions of vari ous authorities regarding the residue from the electrolurgical proc ess, I was told that at times it was very valuable. The dividends paid by The Consolidated Mining and Smelting Company, and the improvements made during the years, is a good example of enterprise and good management. John Fisher Coming July 23 John Fisher, leading commen- tator on the Canadian scene, will visit Nelson July 23, it was announced Wednesday. Mr. Fisher, who, is executive director of the Canadian Tourist Association, will address a dinner meeting of the Chamber of Commerce at 6:30 p.m. It will not be his first visit to this city.

It was announced at the convention that the Quebec command Hd submitted a resolution to the general resolution's committee after a caucus in which they supported the Legion's stand. The Quebec resolution was incorporated in one adopted by the convention. A re-written resolution, revised to include recommendations made to the convention by Lt.-Gen. Guy Simonds in an address Tuesday, called for "a comprehensive national registration of residents of Canada above the age of 18 years" The Legion asked the "Government of Canada to introduce national selective service based on a ■System of national registration in ' order that Canada may be properly and adequately prepared to meet any emergency to ensure that the obligations of national defence are equally distributed among all residents to see that young Canadians shall never again be exposed to the hazards t>t combat without proper training, and to secure the most effective use of our manpower resources." CRITICIZED PRESS Before the resolution was presented, Earl "Cannon of Summer- side, P.E.I., delivered a criticism of the press from the floor for ■what he said was misreporting of the convention. "Mothers and parents of this country have been informed through the press that we recommend conscription at the age of 16. When questions were asked after Gen. Simonds' speech, the press was conspicuous by its emptiness. I think we should request that the press be requested to accurately report the proceedings of this convention. The suggestion was greeted wltti cheers and applause by the more than 1300 delegates. Erie Burgess of St. Thomas, pnt., the Dominion chairman, supported Mr. Cannon and said: "The only matter at the age of 16 was a check and a medical examination." There was no reference made at the session to remarks by Gen. Simonds during his address and which he repeated later at a press conference and recorded television and radio interviews that 16-year- olds, found physically fit through examinations, should be compelled to attend Summer youth camps and after that should go into re- •erve forces. Very Rev, J. O. Anderson of Ottawa, retiring Dominion president, reported on his visit last week to the World Veterans' Federation Assembly in Brussels. In recommending that the Legion join the organization, Dean Anderson said, "a bogey that can always be raised is that it is communistic. We did not find it so." He said there were Yugoslavian members on the Federation and "we have to- learn to live in the world with these people and if we are afraid to talk with them,.we would be in a bad way indeed." The question of affiliation which matter be laid over to the 1958 con- years after delegates spoke against the joining of an organization with communist representatives. Bob McNicholof Gibson's, B.C., urged caution and advised the Legion, "don't get -mixed up in trying to clean up Europe's back yard." In favor of affiliation was Alex Solomon of Montreal, who said: "We have" been discussing the situation from a Montreal point of view." He said there had been too' much talk of control of the organization and "too many people are trying to control the destinies of others. We passed a resolution to keep our powder dry, that was the practical application. Now it's time for an idealistic approach. "When you can sit down Arab and Israeli . . . and feel that you are not bad friends you have accomplished something. I urge you comrade to forget provincial and national boundaries for there are no national boundaries." There were cheers when he finished speaking. The Dominion command's" legal advisor, Ossie Howe of Ottawa, spoke against affiliation. "Of course we are all for peace but how to get It is a horse of a different color. I am not anxious to see Canada become comrades with any communist dominated country and I refer to Yugoslavia." His amendment asking that the matter be laid over to the 158 con vention in Halifax brought the first turmoil of the convention and resulted in a standing vote, which ended with the issue shelved for two years. Decision was taken during the morning session to shelve for two years a proposed affiliation with the World Veterans' Federation. Some delegates spoke against joining an organization with communist representatives. Yugoslavia is a member of the federation The compulsory military service resolution was unanimously pass^ ed by the convention. * The Quebec resolution, incor porated in the main resolution, said: "A policy of contributing materials rather than manpower to common defence effort of the British Commonwealth and the United Nations is neither dignified nor in keeping with the traditions of the forebearers of the people of Canada, nor in -the final analysis even an adequate guarantee of Canada's own security from attack ...

(CP) — Ca* nadian scientists say new experiments with milk have given them renewed assurance that radioactive fallout from experimental atomic bomb explosions so far appears to be harmless to health. The tests, conducted in a special laboratory in this Ottawa river village, show for the first time that the amount of radioactivity present in milk in Its natural state—has increased minutely since the United States, Britain and Russia began exploding atomic bombs. The laboratory was set up last year by the federal health department with the direct assistance and advice of Atomic Energy of Canada Ltd.. crown company which operates the Chalk River, Ont, atomic establishment.

Grain experts say a dry harvest in 1955 reduced the quantities of tough grain, uncounted thousands of bushels of which have been in* fested in recent years, ^cutting the grain's value and increasing the work, of the grain storers. Fred L. Watters, officer in charge of the federal government's stored products insect laboratory in Winnipeg, listed the. invaders as the rusty grain beetle, two types of gungus beetles and mites. 1951 PEAK Insect infestation reached its peak in 1955 after farmers, fearing early frosts, harvested their 1954 crop earlier than usual.and had to store damp, or tough grain. The insects prefer tough grain. No great problems are expected j.duced and consumed in all parts this year. The farmers harvested I of Canada.

It is a calcium-containing product that lends itself chemically to this type of research and it is pro duct from a process which starts in the soil.

ROME (AP)—Give or take an eruption or two, Italy's most famous volcanoes are Vesuvius, Strom- boli and Anna Magnani.' Miss Magnani, whose earthy Serafina in The Rose Tattoo won the 1956 academy award for the best film actress of the year, is an explosive opposite of the glamorous movie type. She is a bulging matron of 46 who just can't keep her lank black hair combed. Her clothes normally look as if the doorbell rang before she was quite dressed. Foreigners who do not patronize the art theatres have come to know Magnani only recently. But she hit the screen first in 1934. DRAMA SCHOLARSHIP Her family was poor. She came from the Trastevere section of Rome — literally "across the Tiber", but in fact rather like being from the wrong side of the tracks. Her fiery talent won her a scholarship In Rome's St. Cecilia Dramatic Academy. After that came roles with touring companies — years of low pay, shabby accommodations and experience. Then came love—and Magnani freely admits she has been, without it only rarely since. "Love is a woman's, best friend," she says. "I'm always in love. It is impossible to live without love and unpleasant to die without it." There have been many romances for Magnani since the breakup of her marriage to Geoffrey Alessan- drini. a director. One" with Rob erto Rossellini broke up explosively when the Italian moviemaker met and married Ingrid Bergman. Magnani makes no pretentions about being a beauty. "My face is what it is," the says. "If I tried to improve it. I might just make it look ridiculous." W« War On Brain Shortage NEW YORK (APT—Business ls increasing its grants to higher education in a drive to end a growing shortage of brains. * Corporations contributed $39 - 000,000 to 728 colleges and universities in their 1954-55 fiscal year, the Council for Financial Aid to Education reports. This was 12 per cent of the grand total of gifts, received By these schools. But the council adds that if U.S businessmen had donated just on" per cent of total corporate net taxable income in that year the sum would have come to $340.■ 000,000. And the schools could have used it. A number of corporations re- cently have announced sizable new grants or increased Impres sively the amounts donated for scholarships or faculty salaries. LOOK TO COLLEGES They are looking to the colleges and universities for much of the business leadership of the future And Industrialists know, there is already a shortage of young chemists, physicists and engineers. Niel McElroy, president of Procter and Gamble, predicts that "in the next 15 years we may have to build in this country facilities for higher education equal to the total of all these built since the landing of the pilgrims." His company gives scholarships and grants to those privately endowed schools from which it has drawn the largest number of graduates as emnlovees. on the theor» that these institutions ought to produce more of the same in th? future. Companies have different ways of setting un gifts to educqtio-* Some provide scholarships for families of their employees o* dealers. Some give unrestricted funds to schools in the areas in which they have plants. Seve" encourage alumni contributions b- a<"-e»in- to match the funds am- of their emnloyees contribute tn their own alma maters. 13,000.00 Capital Assets: General Government City Office and Equipment 329.817 15 6,501.52 257.000.00 $ 32,280.43 Protection to Persons and Property: (1) Fire Department: Fire Hall Site and Equipment $99,969.17 Fire Alarm System 5,049.05 $ 105,018.22 (2) Police Department: Police Department Equipment Parking Meters Street Lights , Traffic Lights $ 3,776.77 .. 12,354.84 _ 6.095.29 _ 2,302.41 24,529.31 $ 129,547.53 Public Works: Property _ $ 11,226.93 Road Making Machinery 90,910.89 Paving 268,516.90 Cement Sidewalks _.. 89,078.85 Gravel Pit 2,807.85 Retaining Wall—Vernon Street 51.710.82 Garage Building and Equipment 49,342.45 Weigh Scales 1,400.00 Real Property: Foreshore Castlegar Airport Nelson Hostel Site and Building .
