01 Many Things
By Ambrose Hills
UNUSUAL WELCOME 11IAT
Recently "I read a press report
to the effect that a Japanese cor-
poration has "sent a team of
experts to Canada's prairie prov-
inces to explore the possibility of
establishing factories for the
manufacture of small goods in
underdeveloped areas."
So we're an underdeveloped area,
yet:
Anyhow, because I live In Winni-
peg where we have a big needle
trade, I deccidecl to pop this news
report under the nose of a textile
manufacturer to see what he'd say.
He has been complaining that it is
very tough trying to compete 'with
exports 'from Japan, so I wanted •
to get his reaction to having one
of their textile factories in his
own backyard. He surprised me
with his answer,
His exact words were, "This is '
a very silly idea, but I am all in
favour of it.
"The. Japanese firm would then
learn what it means to .manufac-
turer in Canada, with Canadian
taxes and wages, compared with
the advantages they have in Japan.
"At present the Japanese textile
people pay wages at about 15 cents
an hour, with all sorts of encour-
agement from their own govern-
ment, 'They drop their products in
Canada with the utmost ease,,,
able to under-cut Canadian prices,
which • are, in 'effect, Canadian
wages.
"If the Japanese gave up all of
this and moved plants into Canada,
their basic costs would then he
the same as Minet, and I would
once more be able to compete for
the Canadian market, and my
workers would enjoy some security.
"Just why the Japanese should
choose to do this I cannot pretend
to know, but I am certainly in
favour of it."
It will be interesting to see
whether the Japanese experts go
home and advise their manufac-
turers to come here, or to stay put
in japan, The local textile people
say that the answer is certain;
they'll •atay in Japan.

Council Approves

in Wingham, which proved that
the outlet was coming at any rate.
Councillor Callan, following the
debate on the subject then )made
the following Motion, which, was
seconded by Councillor' Nasmith:
"I move 'that council abide by the
vote' of the people on November
30th, when the CTA was revoked
and also follow through with 'the
wishes of the Wingham Business
Association to send a letter to the
Ontario Government asking that
liquor and beer outlets be placed
in Wingham."
Councillor Buchanan 'moved the
following amendment to the .mo-
tion: "I move that no action be
taken at this time." The amend-
ment 'was seconded by Councillor
Pocock.
Councillors Buchanan, Pocock
and Bergman voted in favor of the
amendment, which was defeated
when Councillors Callan, Nasmith,
and Gorbutt, with Reeve Adair
and Deputy Reeve Kerr. supported
the motion.
Routine Business
The council considered a' num-
ber of routine affairs, including
the minutes of the last meeting,
which were passed'. Several com-
munications were received and
filed,
Reports of committee followed,
the most important of which was
a report from CouncilioaSmith
on streets. He said tentative ar-
rangements have 'been made to en-
gage a rubber-tired loading Ma-
chine for snow removal. The out-
night, The machine is owned 'by
a Blyth firm,
Some discussion took place on,
whethei local contractors could
handle the work, but it was pointed
out that as far as is known, lo-
cal contractors with smaller equip-
ment could only operate at desig-
nated times. The matter was left
with the street committee for, final
decision.
On motion of Nasmith and Kerr
a request will be made to the De-
partment of Highways to have the
residue of the construction ac-
count placed in the maintenance
account.
Councillor Buchanan brOught up
the matter of tree cutting in the
town, and asked if town men were
employed for this work, and if so
it might be possible that experts
in this line of work would cut
costs. Deputy Reeve Joe Kerr said
that some of this work was done
by town employees at times when
other work was not pressing.
The subject of school buses park-
ing on the main street was men-
tioned., as well as the parking of
trucks on Victoria street when un-
loading, a situation which, it was
felt, should be looked into.
Councillor Callah gave the fin-
ancial report, with all bills being
approved. The accounts were the
heaviest of the year, as they in-
cluded statements of the county
levy, as well as the public and high
school levies.
The council approved a by-law
re-appointing R. S. ,Hetherington
as town • representative on the
Wingham District High School

1.00 p.m. Carried, The council also reached the de-
cision to draw up a new by-law
regarding the tax discounts for
early payment. It.. was pointed
out that the tax bills stated four
per cent discount would be allowed
if taxes were paid in January. In
effect this figure is actually only
3.7 per cent as ,taxes cannot be
paid between Nov. 15th and Jan,
1st, which amounted to a deduc-
tion of 45 days when the interest
was figured out; Council felt the
full four per cent should be allow-
ed to those 'who pay on January
1st.
Council decided to call the last
meeting of the year for' December
28th.
