The Editor: In regards te Mr. Cauchi's letter on hemnecoming year, let me say that a significant change would surely be seen by any old timers coming back to Whitby for this special year. Most cf those green lanes of Whitby they remember are paved with asphaît by now, and 1 might add that some cf their asphaît replacements are badly in need cf repair. Taxes are going up A the time, and oldtimers who are write still blessed with their sight will undoubtedly notice that where there were once three or four men on town main- tenance, you now sec umpteen truicks with works crews cruis- ing around streets. The things we could cal our own when we were merely a village have moved aside for that modern day excuse-ail, progress. First went the cus- tQns office, then the post office and tlhree stations. Whien old Mr. Alfin of Allîin's Drug Store left his Tender proof system workcs WHITBY - Whitby council, this week, was given another pointed lesson in the value of caliing for tenders for muni- cipal works projeets. Currentiy, their attention is aimed at a tender caîl for construction of a trunk sani- tary sewer fromn the Bradley Farmi property to the muni- cipal complex on Rossland Rd. In answer to tlhe tender caîl, 24 con tracting firms sub- niitted bids with the winner and lowest bidder being R.B.C. Construction Limiited with a bid of $79,784.04. What proves mnost intrigu- iing, however, is that bids for the project ranged tupward from the low bid te a igh of' $181,280.1-5. That is exactly a difference of $ 101,496.21.

With such figures paraded openly, it must be agreed that tendering is a vital necessity where municipal projects or purchases are concerned.

So in his will he generously left money for us to have a new town hall. But somebody in the New- man Administration decided a town hall would be nice in another locality, se Mr. Allin's gift to the people of Whitby was sold to the library board. Multiple houses were built where old timers used to skate down in the swamnp on Mit- chiell field, and also where you used to ski down at 'Old Wliitefence.' For aIl of thiese changes, whiom are we to blamç? Plea se, not the council, for you had the vote whicli installed some of the older ones back on again. No, if there is any blame. for things not so right in Whiitby town, aIl we who vote can blame ourselves. Sincerely, Alfred Bruce, Dunlop Street, Wit by.
