I do not believe the Mali could attract any more business to the Town than we have at the present time. For many years, Exeter has drawn business from a very large area. Shortly after I was appointed Clerk-Treasurer, the War effort required rationing, Ration Offices were set up in Exeter, Clinton, Seaforth and Goderich in Huron County, Issuing of rations for sugar and butter was added to the duties of our office, The Central Ration Office at London supplied each of the four offices an equal amount of rations fOr a month. We ran out of ration coupons around the 15th of the month. An inspector came out to look over our books. Finding the rations had been issued correctly, he asked why do so may people come to you? It simply proved that, at that time, Exeter drew business from a much larger area than the other towns. This continues to be true. Exeter is now a complete town and servicing the largest area we can hope to draw from, We now have the following businesses: 5 food markets, department stores, 3 furniture, 3 men's furnishings, 3 Ladies'wear, fabric shop, 2 variety stores, 2 specialty shops, 2 jewellery, 2 book stores, 3 electrical supplies,2 large building supply centres, 3 florists, C 0.0 P. store, 3 hard- wares, 5 restaurants, 2 machine shops, 2 barber shops, numerous beauty parlors, several above businesses are representative of chains. We also have a large phar- macy, discount drugs, mail order office, 4 doctors, 2 chiropractors, optician, 3 banks, trust company, loan company, credit union of- fice, 2 law offices, several chartered accountants, several real estates and insurance of- fices, 4 farm implement agen- CORRECTION It has been pointed out that fuel allowances paid to persons on welfare in Huron County have indeed increased 45 per cent to cover the cost of heating, but that monthly rates published in the Signal-Star last week are in- correct. The story indicated the allowance for a one-room O detached dwelling goes from $84 per month to $122 per month, This is wrong. It is not a monthly allowance but an annual allowance. All allowances quoted in the story are for the period of one year, not one month. ties, 3 car agencies, 6 filling stations and 1 weekly newspaper, Exeter is servicing well the largest area available. The proposed malt could not increase town business total, It would divide present business. The result would be the vacancy .of some buildings and possibly some bankruptcies, This would not only apply to downtown businesses but also to those in the proposed malt.

It is very probable that if the mall is proceeded with, divided business and empty buildings will decrease the total amount of taxes collectable for the town, The town council should con- sider the matter of the proposed mall very carefully. They should call for a sitting of the Municipal Board allowing ratepayers to express their wishes in the matter. C.V. Pickard Willis, Cindy Fla tt, Steven Hawkins.
