COUNCIL ON TOUR

"Look

t," Mayor Garyin   Dezell called   to a viewpoint under construction on top of Connaught Hill.
"Remember   how   the   dust   used   to   hang  over the  city   in a  cloud  at night?"  he  said.   "Now   look .   at it."
"We have very little dust in the city now compared to what we had even three years ago. That is an accomplishment the council can be proud of."
Mayor Dezell made the comments during and after a tour of the city by members of city council, City Manager Arran Thomson and City Engineer Bill Jones. NOTHING DONE
"For eight years almost nothing was done to improve this city, paving and a sewage program were almost non-exislant. "But in the last year-and-a-half this council has pushed sewer coverage in the city to more than 90 per cent and by this fall we'll have 15 miles of paving in the city.
"Then no one will be more than Z\i blocks from a hard-surface street and our dust problem will be pretty well beaten.
"I am very happy over the situation. It looks as if all our planning and trouble is finally �viying off.
**' ''I   bulieve   Prince   George   i Being developed  in a practical manner. There  can't be much doubt that this development is worthwhile."
Council also took a look at the city reservoir and pumping station, which was recently enlarged to a S'/^-million-gallona-day capacity. BETTER TASTE
Installation of a filtration basin under the Nechako River has also improved the softness and taste of city water.
"We have even more plans for this," Aid. Spike Enemark, chairman of the city's public works committee, said. "We'll lave to increase our capacity and perhaps build another pump louse."
Council was also taken along Fifteenth, one .side of which has j been paved, and through the Moffat Street area of Central, fast developing US a city residential area.
Most  aldermen  were pleased at what has been accomplished I
so far but were we'l awire of j what   has   to   ho   done future.

OTTAWA (VV) � The rebellious Senate banking committee today contested the government's will by recommending rejection of the bill to fire James Coyne as governor of the Bank of Canada.
The Vote was 19 to 7 in 'the Liberal-dominated committee. It came on the fourth day of the committee's struggle over the fate of the 50-year-old governor.
The committee was to report its decision on the bill later today to the Senate, where the Liberals also hold the majority. If the Senate rejects the bill, it will die. It would not go back to the Commons for reconsideration.
Mr. Coyne had asked Wednesday for rejection of the bill so that he can "hold up my head" as "a man of honor."
He had told the committee he will retire even if found "not guiMy"  by  Parliament.
Frank Howard (CCF-Skeena) said  Wednesday in  the Commons the government wants to venerate Finance Minister "to a position of being next to, i not  in place of,  Go will begin moving Into n� new, 11101,000 quartern July 10. Tiie library will bo i |o td foi  tho romilndor of
