As
spokesman
for

u
n,
Mr
Black
expressed
the
,..:.n)n
at
the
outset
that
the
respousioimy
lor
tne
old
men
fell
on
the
federal
or
provincial
government
rather
than
upon
the
ratepayers
of
the
city.
As
for
the
Westview
site,
he
felt
that
it
was
quite
unsuitable,

It

in

with

exposure.
Cost
of
maintenance
of
a
building
on
the
site
proposed
here
would
be
heavy.
Further,
there
was
no

and
water

was
low.

A
school
house
on
the
one
side
and
a
children's
playground
on
the
other
also
made
the
site
unsuitable.
Further
disadvantages
were
the

from

centre
of
the
city,
lack
of

remoteness
of

continued
Mr.
Black,
could
the
presence
of
an
Old
Men's
Home
be
regarded
as
an
asset
to
high-priced
residential
property.
Further,
the
people
of
Westview
felt
that
they
were
already
neglected
as
far
as
school
facilities
were
concerned.
Finally,
Mr.
Black
contended,
this
was
a
poor
time
to
embark
on
a
building
project
when
costs
were
high
and
materials
scarce.
After

found
himself
In

with
the
most
of
the
points
presented
by
the
spokesman.
Before
Mr.
Black
was
heard,
the
original
petition
of
the
West-view
residents
opposing
the
establishment
of
the
Old
Men's

was
read
and
Mayor
Daggett
reviewed
events
which
had
led
up
to
the
proposal
by
the
health
committee,
later
endorsed
by
the
council,
to
abandon
the

the
Eventide

In
favor
of
the

The
mayor
also
mentioned
that
the
matter
of
eeklng
assistance
from
the
provincial
government
had
been
considered
but
the
Idea
had
been
dropped
since
it
was
felt
this
might
imply
obligations
to
take
government
cases.
Mr.
Black
was
advised,
In
answer
to
his
questions,
that
the
city
received
no
financial
aid
at
present
for
Its
Old
Men's
Home,
the
present
Inmates
of
which
were
all

of

The
outcome
was
that

did

pe
