.5. Tourists Prefer. Canada;
Claim It . Is More "Restful"
Signal -Star • Survey ,Shows That
Friendliness of Goderich Citizens. Is
Much Appreciated; Numerous Other
Reasons Given Also for 'Choice of
Canada for Summer Holidays.
Cars from the United States, carrying
license platesfrom every. State in the
Union, are pouring tourists into Canada.
While those most commonly seen in Gode-
rich and along the lake . shore are from
Michigan, Ohio, New York, Illinois and
Indiana, it is no surprise this year to
see license plates from any State" south
of toile border, no' matter how far distant.
The Canadian Travel Bureau has estim-
ated that twenty million tourists from the
United States will visit Canada this year.
It is also estimated 'that Canada will be
;richer by at least 200 million dollars before
the curtain is rung• down this year on the
tourist season.
Goderich is amongst Canadian municipal-
ities which stand to benefit materially from
these visitors.
Why do so many citizens of the United
Stites prefer to spend their holidays in
Canada, rather than in their own country?
To find the. answer to• this question from
the visiting tourists themselves The Signal -
Star has interviewed •several dozens of
them.
The Chief Reason
The result was that more than seventy-
five per cent. of _them unhesitatingly stated
they found.. in Canada "a- more restful and
relaxing atmosphere" than was to be found
in • most 'parts of the United States. "The
whole tempo of life is so refreshingly slower
in Canada in comparison with the .lilstle

- A rather. .bright spot was seen on
the disturbed "Canadian "labor -industry
front in negotiations recently com=
pleted in Goderich: Despite the cur-
rent news of the; breaking down of -
wage negotiations and resulting strikes
or of impending strikes in industr,y•
from const to coast in. Canada, at least
exile firm and its employees were able to
negotiate across the table and. come
to €. declaim)... that was satisfactory
to both parties.
The Dominion Road Machinery Com-
pany of Goderich and its' employees.
have just finished renewing their•agree-
mont for another year. This - agree=
anent contains all the• usual provisions
of seniority in the event of lay-off,
a good grievance and arbitration pro-
cedure, -one week's holidays with pay
for all employees with six months'
service with the company. Member-
ship in the union is optional, and about

who are union members are deducted
from pay cheques by -the company and
turned over to the union.
The president of the Company, Air
`'ice -:Marshal J.. A. Sully, has had wide
experience.in personnel matters, espec--
laltly as member for personnel on tbe-
Air Council of the R.C.A.F. He bas
taken a very personal interest ha the
setting up of new job 'classifications
and a system of merit promotion.
The new jqb classifications provide
for a higher rate of pay for the em-
ployee when he becomes fully qualified
in bis trade, and the merit' systein .of
Promotion insures that his pay is
creased systematically and regularly
while he is learning his trade -and as
he becomes more proficient in his work.
The work of every employee is as-
sessed et regular intervals and if his
results 'are. satisfactory his pay is in-,
creased.. • -
A confidential personal 'assessment
form has been developed for this pur-
pose by . the company.
The hews classifications and wage
rates must get the approval of the
Regional 1Var Labor Board before they
ea rrehee4resssieffective.
This -company: has a very active em-
ployee -management committee and it is
reported on all sides that d happy
