The interest free, forgiven loan portion will amount to $100,083 and an additional $200,000 term loan extends over 15 years at interest of 8%. A new pr~duction plant and modern push button gas fired tunnel kiln will be built on Rosslyn Road, approximately one mile from Neebing Avenue and material will be brought from the present open clay pits. The tunnel kiln process of firing clay bricks is a comparatively new concept. Heat from controlled gas burners introduced into the firing chamber is recycled to other preheating and drying chambers for complete use. Trainloads of brick move from chamber to chamber down the 300 foot tunnel track to the cooling and unloading araa. The new facilities will not only reduce cost by automation of handling, but will permit reduced inventory due to quick production of specialized quantities on a year round basis. Special order production will require only 10 days instead of the present 30 days. No interruption will occur in production of brick as the currently operating plant will continue until the switchover to the new plant early in July 1968. Local architects, engineers and contractors will be pleased with the opportunity of securing fancy and common brick, chimney block, partition tile, weeping tile, flooring tile, paving block and patio tile from a modernized local plant. It's not quite the "instant brick" but this new processing plant supplies Northwestern Ontario builders with another opportunity to use area products. Company officials are to be congratulated on their aggressive approach to a modernization program -which will make this one of the most advanced clay processing plants in the country. The Lakehead Industrial Commission has been assisting with the financing arrangements since September 1967. ~;~iri;1TS•.,;ROM THE ON;ARIO DEVELOPMENT CORPORATION WILL BE IN THE .

Dear Doug: The members of Thunder Bay Lodge 10, on December 28, 1960 forwarded two applications for certification to the Canada Labour Relations Board. The two represent the largest Companies, Saskatchewan and Ha.nitoba Pools, for a test case. Mr. J. s. Gunn, investigated our books and mentioned the Board would sit February 8 & 9th and felt we will need to show that our situation has changed. ?? Lodge 650 is intervening, also the Companies. This puts the Brotherhood of Railway & Steamship Clerks in the middle of what could be a nasty situation. We intend to support the Brotherhood actions taken on our behalf. The Executive committee and Board members of Dodge 10, at a meeting January 31, 1961, passed a motion that you be contacted in regard friendly assistance in connection with our appearance at a Hearing of the Board in Ottawa. (Same representatives, Trist and Seaman are expected to again represent the electrical group.) You may be able to talk to Bernard Wilson in regard the situation, and whether we should hold other applieations or send them in. You may wish to talk to Frank Hall to get more of his good advise, for our consideration. Although wou will be very busy this weekend in Port Arthur, we trust you will spare us time to talk over the problem. Yours very truly, Reeording Secretary,# 10. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
