The Goderich Signal-Star, 1966-11-03, Page 8The Goderich Signal•Star, Thursday, Novembe Murphy. , On Industry Growth • °q' Remarks by 11,4: Murphy of Goderich to Industry. A mister' Drury during the presentation of a "brief . Oct. 24 seeking de- signated area status for a large portion of Western Ontario: "1 •aan a Vice -President of the Western Ontario North Liberal Association. ---1 was born and 1 brought up in ),fount Forest, Ontario, the municipality which really instigated this brief and where the chairman, Mr. Harry Bridle resides. --.1 now practise law in Goderich, Ontario, the, County Town or the County of Huron, and the largest muni cirpality represented here today "We in Goderich are very for- tunate in, that we hay e no un- employment, but unlike many the municipalities re'pre:-.ent ed here 6(;day o e du hat e g'aod deal of industry [,ast Thursday in conjunction with Domtar Chemical, we celebrated the 100th anniversary of the finding of salt and in Gi derich is located the lar;:t -t salt mine in Canada. 1 only - hope atter this meeting that you don't send us all "back to the salt urines,.. "So you may wonder why we are supporting thi 'brief. Well, we believer we either have to go ahead or- fall behind. It is impossible -to remain static. For several years We attracted our share of industry and while the growth of our Town was not outstanding. there was a slow steady growth. But since the iesignated area legislation was brought into force, we haven't that- is not to say, no industries Were interested in Goderich. "Some time ago,• in convpet- ition wr`th several municipalities. - it Came down to a question of Goderich or Owen Sound. One of the executives of the propos- ed industry actually went as far as investigating."the possibility of a home in Goderich. • When the time came to make the de-' •cision, the president decided to go to Owen Sound. He told me personally, he would have preferred to come to Goderich, • but that the tax' advant.ai e made it imperative that they choose Owen Sound. "The area to the north of us, as outlined in the map which you have, and which is a de- signated area; Ls beginning to choke, us ,to d'ea'th. All- we ask is that we be able to compete on a even scale ,and we don't really Care weather that area is re -designated or whether our municipality is designated, -al- though I suggest in retrospect every one wants to be -design- ated. "I said earlier that there is .no _uneinployment w Goderich. This is true, but on the other hand, there is no employment. There is no -place for our young people to work. We have hund- reds of people 'applying for work. but when they cannot find employment, rather than stay in •Goderich and cause unemploy- ment, so that we could be de- signated under the present leg- islation. they move on and all that happens is that -our pepu- lataion drops. We are vitally concerned with our failure to keep our young .people at hoarse. "If I could inject a personal note, in my own particular fain - there are three . boys and we were all fortunate enough to obtain a University education,. and We arc now graduate law- yers. We all wished to return to Western Ontario and I think it is significant that I was .the only one that returned,.elo the area of slow growth that is re- presented here today. And I think that it is of further signi• ficance that 1 came to the muni- cipality that does have a good industrial base. My other two •brothels live vri-Landon and._Kit- chener revpectively. "1 was a delegate to the recent Liberal policy convention in Ot- tawa and there was a good deal 'Of thought and discussion con cerning this problem at the • Goderich branch of St. John Ambulance Association was host to several association executives Oct. 26.

"It is impossible to remain ped. As a result of that dis- cussi6n; the following motion was passed which \\as approved, by the Plenary ,Session.

Honourable Sir, 1.would, like to refer you to excerpts from two papers \vhich were delivered at .the One paper was by Dr Clarence Barber and in connection with the section on Regional Develop - 'Why not have a policy additional assistance to any province whose trend rate of year average -falls more than '3 below the national growth rate. The particular form this assistance should take could be warked out but it would have to be a form -that did not interfere with provineial static" jurisdictions. It is my opinion that Canada should adopt as a deliberate policy, the 'objective of balanced regional growth.' • -It is my respectful submis- sion. Honourable Sir, that this 'same proposal should apply within the province as well- as between provinces. -file other paper was deliver- ed by David W. Slater. As you kelt know, Mr. Slater is a gradu- ate uf the University of Mani- toba, Queen's and of, the Uni- versity of Chicago. He is a former. advisor to 'several Gov- ernment Boards arid Royal Com- 7Farospects-T955:56. Mr. Slater- is currently editor of The Can- adian Banker. In talking about regional _development, he had this to say: 'The. best, but not only, goal for regional.dev•elopment is to aim for comparable re- wards for comparable people engaged in comparable activi- ties in various regions, A sec,•• PEED QUEEN. DRYERS ond important goal is to re- duce quite markedly the in- equalities of 'opportunity. for people among various regions. A third important goal is for regions to become self-sustain- ing on a high productivity basis. The fourth goal is to .redress man-made inequities and inefficiencies in the shar- ing of the fruits of develop - Mont processes among re- gions.' "In conclusion sir, I under stand that a special parliamen tary committee made up Oft representatives from, all parties. is plesently sitting and I Would hope tha-176.7 -ger 'IN submissions. can he considered by that committee.
