London, Ont. 439-0194 Employees share profits.. • from page 1 "Profit sharing is a valuable investment in the employees of thls company and 1 think it will make them more productive and efficient," he said. "People can make the difference," People are starting to make the difference in the fortunes of the grading manufacturing company and Bain explained that profits will inject a new measure of enthusiasm among employees. "They have extra reason to be successful." The profit shared among the employees involves all personnel from Champion, Gearco, the Marketing and Sales divisions of Champion and Champ Corp in the United States, While enthusiasm is high ,with respect to the in- creased productivity and subsequent profit In the face of economic adversity, the profit picture was tempered somewhat by the fact that not all com- panies shared the success. "We didn't hit a motherlode by any means," Bain explained. "There was only one company that made money." Regardless, the profit is there to be shared by all employees, who can extract a measure of pride from the dividend. And as Bain reiterated, "It's not a gift. It was profit earned during the year." Town bets pr�gram grant... • from page 1 Thegrant for the local F .L.O.A.T. program was the smallest of the seven approved projects. Huron Country Playhouse received $23,712 that will provide. four jobs for 104 weeks and the Van Egmond Foun- dation is in line for $x3,358 to provide two jobs over 102 weeks. A day care centre for physically disabled adults in Vanastra will receive $13,000 and the Volunteer Outreach Program of the Town and Country Homemakers was granted $9,984. Two conservation authorities also received small grants with the Ausable-Bayfield Authority, Exeter, and Maitland Valley Conservation Authority, Wroxeter, each being granted $10,816. The seven projectsl will bring $100,000 of federal funding into the Huron -Bruce riding, creating the equivalent of 11 new jobs and an additional weeks of work. Mr. Cardiff said he was satisfied with the quality of applications from the riding and the increased ac- ceptance of those applications. "While there is never complete support from the government for projects which are proposed under this kind of program, we in Huron -Bruce appear to have gained increasing acceptance this year for our proposals. I am encouraged to see the high level of participation in this program from our riding and hope that in future more groups will be accepted for funding by . the Minister of. Employment and Immigration," Mr. Cardiff said. Elevator sets handling records • from page 1 Ontario corn and grain 'handlings are increasing sharply but the Western wheat, which had been on a declineof about six per tent per year, decreased by 25 per cent this year to 7'h million bushels. The result has been increased revenue from elevation, storage and shovelling that boosted the net income and dividends paid to company shareholders. In a letter to shareholders, Parsons indicated the company completed a record six months with respect to earnings. The expansion and increased traffic has also contributed to the dust problem but the company has made a commitment to expenditures aimed at alleviating grain dust. In an announcement this week, Mr. Parsons said the company will spend $300,000 in the next six months to reduce dust emissions at the two plants in the harbor. Two-thirds of the money will be spent at the truck unloading sites at the foot of harbor hill. A new building for unloading trucks will be located near elevator 2. The remainder of the money will be spent on filtration equipment for the main elevator to alleviate problems in the St. Georges Crescent area. The company has spent more than $3/4 million on such emission controls and Parsons claimed neigh- bouring residents have been patient during the company's expansion.
