There was no member of the
Authority opposed to the motion
though a few abstained from
voting.
Victor Fuller, clerk of Bosan-
quet and a member of the
Authority, expressed his town
ship’s objection to the establish
ment of a park.
“We would hate to lose the
taxes from this portion of land.
There are 4,000 acres of land
there assessed at $40 an acre—•
the biggest assessment in the
township. If this were taken
over as a park we would lose
considerable revenue. However,
the people of Bosanquet do not
wish to hog this land.”
He pointed out later that the

discussion by pointing out the
need for a public park at the
pinery. “We must have vision
enough to set aside land for the
working man's recreation.
“We are located,” he said, “in
one of the fastest-growing areas
in Ontario and’ we must look to
the future. The Authority has
not the funds to purchase the
area but we have the legal right
to take it over.”

Purchase and reforestation of
634 acrqs of land in the Hay
Swamp were approved by mem
bers of the Ausable Conservation
Authority who met at
on Monday. Cost
be $12,700.
Thousands of
planted over the
next spring in an effort to con
trol the rush of headwaters of
the Ausable.
Original plan of the Authority
was to build a $250,000 reser
voir in the 2,000-acre area of the
swamp. The objection of owners
of the lands makes this project
impossible at the present time.
Advantages 0 f reforestation,
as outlined in a report by com
mittee, were lower cost, almost
as high retention of water and
and selfrinaintenance of forests
at maturity.
F. G. Jackson, field man of
Ontario Department of Lands
and Forests, reported to the
Authority on his two-month sur
vey of owners in the swamp. He
said he had been able to option
6 34 acres of land for tree plant
ing at a cost of $20 per acre.
Plans were made for a, public
tree-planting day next spring
when the first trees will be
planted in Hay Swamp.
The tree planters ordered by
the Authority will be delivered
soon and these will be available
for the use of farmers.
Policy for the use of the
planters was established with
cost to farmers kept at a mini
mum. Christmas tree planting
will be 'allowed if a certain
amount of permanent timber is
planted.
The Ausable River Conserva
tion Authority and the London
Chamber of Commerce joined
forces this week to fight for a
public park in the Pinery.
The two bodies met officially
at the Authority meeting in
Parkhill Monday to organize an
offensive to establish a “Western
Ontario Playground” in the five-
mile stretch of beach and woods
on Lake Huron.
An expanded
of the Ausable
authorized to
purchase and development of the
area. Meanwhile, Chambers of
Commerce in Western Ontario
will form a committee under E.
V. Buchanan, manager of Lon
don’s public utilities, for the
same purpose.
Both groups Were enthusiastic
and eager in their support of the
project. However, two formid
able problems showed themselves
to the meeting.
One is the objection of Bo
sanquet Township Which will
lose over $4,000 in annual taxes
if the area is made public. The
other is the purchase price, said
to be a considerable amount,
which the Canada Land Com
pany will demand.
