PAGE TENTHE CANADIANSTATESM, BOWMANVILLE, ONTARIO Goodyear Payroll Main Factor In Bowmanville's ProsDeritv The present animal payroll of the Good- year Tire and Rubber Company, Limited, in Bownian ville is iii excess of $1,200,000.00. This money is paid weeklv in cash to ap- proximafely 700 employees iin office and factory. What this means in the general prosperity of a town of 4.000. population can more fully be appreciated by accepting an average of three to a family. The Goodyear payroll, therefore, is distributed directly f0 more than haîf the homes in town. Out of familj- budgets devised from this huge sum the money flows f0 businessmen. merchants, churches, charities, indeed the whole range of community economies that make for pro- gress and prosperity. It can be laimed, wifhouf question, thaf Goodyear coming to Bowmanville in 1910, in the wake of other deciingi industries, was ini the nature of anl infusion of economic plasma. From that fime forward, corpora- tion finance, municipal improvements. nîod- ernized homes have iii great measure stem- med from the snccess and expansion of this single indusfry. Todav-, Goodyear-Bowman- ville is the larg-est industrial corporation in the United Cou nties of Northîumberland and Durham. Today. eelebrafing Goody-ear's 35th Anniversari-, itizens deem themselves in a fortuitous and enviable position in this association.. Since Goodyear came to fown we have installed waterworks. sewage disposa], paved roads and streets, created a Munmicipal HTYdro System, extended telephone service, built extensions to High and Public Schools, alI of which meant heavy expenditures. But% we- have paid our way. We were able to pay largelv because of a greaf sustaining inidustry. Troday our assessment stands at $2,493,000. Our net debt has been rednced from over half a million f0 the lowest figure in recent history. Today receipf s at the local Customs Office are $1.599,118, most larg-ely due to Goodyear. With a tax rate of only 36 milis, and in solvent position, Bowman- ville views the future together with Good- year with faith and resolution. Some Social ÂsD)ects of Fewer Hours. More Pay In his book "France on Berlin Time" 'T'homas Kernanl has a chapter on Social Reforms in which he describes the French workman 's reaction on the introdnction of the 40-hour week by the Popular Front Gov- erilment prior to' the last war, or f0 be more correct, the recent war. The Socialist Pre- mier, Leon Blum, who introduced the mea- sure with paid vacations, envisaged a more valuable use of this added leisure and money than the manner ini which if was used. Blum, well aware that traditionally the French- manl while used to his dailv îvine had neyer become an alcoholic. and his viewi was that Jean workman would take his wife and fam- ily on picnic jaunts f0 the country. Here is what happened. The Frenchman, with few hobbies, no outside interests, with this unaccustomed leisure thrnst upon him, simply went around the cornier f0 lis favor- ite "bistro" f0 join lus fellows. talk politics, consort -,with i omnen patrons and end up good and druîîk. A stagg,ýeriîîg ,drunik, anl almost unknown plienoineîîon 20 years ago, became far f00 freqnent during flue 1re-war years. If iin(eriniiied flie national will. When war broke iii 1939 the government banned hard liquor flîree days a week, per- mitted the uise of w-me anîd beet'. Todav fortifed wines are limifed f0 18 percent ai- coholie content. Tlîe iintoxicafed stragglý,er has disappeared froin the streets. We are iiot sure of the point fluat may be made in measuring this bit of social history againist our experience ini this country, or more particnlarly in tlîis province, for the p1ýraIIeI, generally. is somnewhat divergent. A better view may be luad in the province of Quebec, whose people iun habits and cultnre are more akin fo flîcir continental forebears. But today wif h a demnand for more pay, t shorter hours, universal paid vacationis and the rumorcd change ini policy of flic Liquor Control Board, there miay be some value in considering the facets in this amazing dis- e closure wrîttfen by ail aufluorifative observýer.
