:

Upon receiving the last copy
of your paper, was very much
surprised in the reading of your
editorial misconceptions of the
fundamental facts governing Sani-
tation in Semiahmoo Park.

On this subject apparently you
are labouring under a misappre-
hension as to the prevailing facts,
or the information you received is
coming from a source that does
net understand some processes of
law, and most stubbornly refuses
to be informed or coached in res-
pect to the necessity of the Board
taking action to conform to Mun-
icipal and Provincial Sanitary reg-
ulations, and contracts entered into
with the American Coin Lock Co.

Last year the park was faced
squarely with total closure unless
the premises were renovated and

a satisfactory toilet arrangement
povided.
The building previously out) in

front of the Beach store was re-!

moved to the park and set up
there. Immediately the question a-

rose as to the operution of this

unit. It was decided to enter into |

fa contract with the American
coin leck Co, for the installation
of coin locks nat only for privacy
but as a source of revenue to care
for the upkeep of this unit.

In the agreement the Coin
Lock Co. divided the taka on a
80-40 basis. These locks were only
in operation a short time before
the Polio epi¢smiq which caused
the whole park to be used little,
if at all. Never-the-less approximat-
ely forty seven dollars in \nickels
were deposited in the boxes during
that time.

One of the members of the board
did not out right agree with this
installation, but accepted the de-
cision of the Board without the
rancor and hub-bub that unfortun-
ately has been continually pursued
by the Junior member throughout
the year to date,

Upon the advise of competent
authorities these locks that had
been removed without authoriza-
tion were ordered replaced to avoid
sible legal action
Mr, Editor is a clear pic
ture of \the situation, In
to these locks; possibly an incon
venience temporarily, but with
some balanced judgement this dift-
ficulty can be adjusted without a
lot of bally hoo

direct from our secretary Mr. John

Farmer, :

After long service of some
twenty years the present chairman
of the Bourd Mr. Wm, Bothwell, @
former councillor and Mr. Farmer
who has been an official in the
municipal hall for a long period
the laying of a foundation in the
erection of a park was begun.

In later years Mr, Tom Reid
M. P. and Ex-Councillor Graham,
and last years chairman Mr. Len
Eade this park was brought under
control of the Municipality, and
operations commenced by a legally
constituted Board. Ex Reeve Joe
Brown was a prime mover in the
preliminary moves in this endeavor
and Ex Reeve J. Russell Archibald
who likewise understood and
undertook the necessary arrange-
ments in the election of the Board.

This land situated upon the In-
dian Reservation under final con-
trol of the Indian Department at
Ottawa was secured under lease
and certain terms of this lease in
must be observed by this Board to
the very letter of tHe lease in order
that the full aforesaid agreement
must not be violated in any sens¢
that may jeojardize or cause total
cancellation.

This communication has been
compiled in an endeavor to give
the citizens of Surrey and particul-
arly those in the White Rock area
a view of the Semiahmoo Park
set up at this time.

Further it has been officially
noticed a few times that commen-
tary furnished the Sun has not
been in line with the exact events

and consequently has caused some
confusion.

Some conditions in relation to
improvement could not Possibly
have been accomplished without
| majority sanction of the Board,
| Yet some installations have been
| conducted without consultation
| thereby creating the dissatisfaction
that is continually arising

We comment in closing that we
do not for a moment condone the
unseeming abusive language used
by the junior official, and the car
property damage that has taken
| place to the extent of the
police being called to ad
incident
