Municipal taxes are reaching the point where communities may nave to turn thumbs down on new projects, R. J. Woods, supervisor of municipalities for the Ontario Department of Muni­ cipal Affairs, told Huron county officials at their annual meeting in Seaforth Wednesday. “Of all jobs confronting Can­ adian people at the present time, none is so great as taxes and financing,” he said. “The im­ portance and seriousness of the problem affect our happiness and prosperity.” “Taxes and groceries,” he con­ tinued, "use up 40 percent of our daily pay. What is going to happen in this situation no one can see.” He praised municipal officers across the country for doing a magnificent job with their re­ venues. Equitable tax distribution be­ tween residential and commer­ cial properties was advocated as the fairest method of raising revenue. Taxes on residential property, without support of commercial or industrial reve­ nue, places such a burden on homeowners that dwellers have been driven out of uyban sections reeve of elected County Broken- George named to rural areas.

REEVE JACK MORRISSEY Heads Municipal Officers Telephone Book Features UWO The telephone directory for 1956 has taken on a “regional” appearance. The cover illustra­ tion for this new book, now being mailed to Exeter telephone users, features a drawing of the University of Western Qntari.o’s administration building at Lon­ don. The drawing is the work of •Canadian artist, Lome Bouch­ ard, A.R.C.A.,’ and it symbolizes the importance of this area in the field of education The il­ lustration replaces the figure of the “Spirit of Communication,” which adorned the front cover of local directories for several years. W. W. Ilaysoin, Bell Telephone manager for this region, said the directory contains 30,731 new and changed listings. “Because of these changes, customers are advised to start using their new telephone directories immedia­ tely,” he said. “Remember to bring your personal lists of num­ bers up to date and get rid of yqur old directories without de­ lay.” Besides Exeter and district customers, the new directory lists those of London, St. Thomas, Glencoe, Strathroy, West Lome and surrounding ter­ ritory. The continuing expansion of this area is indicated by the fact that altogether 71,339 telephone directories are being distributed throughout communities covered by the book, as opposed to 67,430 in 1955. In Exeter alone the dis­ tribution figure amounts to 1,550, compared with 1,450 last year. i' "I’......i|i iwcamaw—ij GUARANTEED INVESTMENT CERTIFICATES THE PREMIER TRUST COMPANY 428 Richmond Street, London Telephone 4-2716 £ r OTHERS TO CHOOSE FROM .

Canadian National Railways with a Plan Already he’s learned a lot about modern farm management, and how a chartered bank can play its part in making farm living more comfortable, more profitable.
