Information
About

Costs
at

How
much
does
It
cost
to
in-
urt,
a
$10,000,000
seaplane
base?
Mayor
Daggett
and
his
aldermen
would
like
to
know
so
they
can
make
a
decision
about
the
Department
of
Transport's
offer
to
allow
the
city
the
use
of
the
Seal'
Cove
base
for
civil
aviation
purposes.
At
present
they
are
somewhat
in
he
dark
and
feel
slightly
crowded
by
aircraft
operators
who
wish
to
use
the
base's
facilities,
on
one
side,
and
the
f
ediral
government
on
the
other.
The
government
obviously
wants
a
qulek,
decision
by
the
city
lawmakers.
But
the
civic
authorities
do
no
feel
like
being
crowded.
Faced
with
the
stipulation
that
they
must
bear
the
cost
of
pay-;
lng
Insurance
premiums
on
the
i
buildings
at
the
Seal
Cove
base
if
the
city
takes
It
over,
the
aldermen
want
to
know
Just
what
thf
cost
will
be.
So
far
no
one
has
come
forward
with
a
figure.

In
the
meantime,

gett
said,
he
has
been
in

with
a
Vancouver

operator
who
Is
desirous
to
make

Mayor
Daggett
said
that
he
is
Investigating
the
possibility
of
the
city
taking
over
only
a
por
tion
of
the
base
and
leaving
the
rest
of
the
area
available
for

purposes.
The
aldermen
expressed
ag-
reement
that
if
the
city
did
take
over
the
whole
base
It
never
could
be
put
on
a
paying
commercial
basis
as
a

Council
authorized
the
Mayor
to

and
the
amount
of

needed
by
the

for

criticized
the

of

asserted,
If'

"we

Mr.
