ALL PAY TAXES The tax rate in Ajax in 1952 was 56.5 mills, an increase over the 1951 rate of 49.5.

Rev. R. D. Begg opened in pray- er, following which the song lead- er Ken Corbett led in the Sing- spiration. Greetings were brought by Mr. Begg on behalf of the Ministerial Association. The Chriz'ia - ness Mens' Committee was repre- sented by Mr. Smith. He as.:ed that a go»! of 100 souls won for Christ be set. Mayor W. J. Naylor welcomed the World Vision Rallies. He stat- ed that the council was building sidewalks and buildings, but these things did not comprise every- thing, A community, he stated, without Christ is lost. Cedric Sears introduced Peter Deyneka as the man who was liable to explode all over the place. Mr. Deyneka is the Slavic Repre- sentative on Youth for Christ In- ternational. He has travelled ex- tensively telling the Good News to the Slavic people in North and South America, Australia and Europe. He has a bright and hum- orous method of presenting what he has to say. He told of Youth for Christ meetings in Poland where the auditorium was over- flowing an hour before the serv- ice. The service often lasted as long as five hours. Even then it was impossible to send the people home for they were so hungry for the gospel. The soloist for the evening was Stella Jarema. She sang very beautifully, "It's Real," "I will serve Him today," and "Have I done my, best for Jesus?" Cedric Sears, formerly the Di- rector of Chicagoland Youth for Christ was the main speaker. He stated that Jesus came to earth to bring "peace on earth." The League of Nations tried to edu- cate peace. The United Nations is trying to legislate pace. However, Peace is not an end in itself, but a by-product of following GOD. He went on to state that people fear many things--the dark spid- ers, airplanes and other things. There is one fear -- the fear of death. Jesus said, "I am the Re- |surrection and the Life, He that !believeth in me, though he were |dead, yet shall he live Mhn=na, {fore we need not fear Death if we only believe in Jesus as our Savior and Lord. Auto Output Still Risirig | Canadian automobile plants put |Loether 7,146 cars last week, com- pared with the 6,614 assembled the previous week, reflecting the indus- itry's return to normal production conditions, compatible with the high demand for automobiles.

Fewer trucks game off Canadian assembly lines, however, with 2,115 produced against 3,241 a year ago -- although the week's output ex- ceeded the previous week's by 651, according to Ward's Automotive Reports. Meantime, output in the United States this week rose 8 per cent from the previous week to its high- est point in more than two months. | Dow Jones records.

She was Madame Therese Cas- grain, leader of the CCF party in Quebec, and as she spoke in soft- ly accented English, using sparing in her home province and Canada at large very real and immediate to her listeners. The Quebec political leader roundly attacked two American- financed corporations, which, she said had used extra-legal methods in their efforts to wreck the unions, She cited management of a Mon- treal East copper refinery, who had appealed union certification by the Labor Relations Board and had even managed to get export licenses from the government and shipped raw materials to the U.S. for processing in order to avoid the effects of the strike. Madame Casgrain's eyes flashed as she described this company's employment of "uninformed New Canadians as scabs amd strike- breakers. What a lovely introduc- tion for them to life in Canada!" She spoke of the Louiseville strike of textile workers, which she termed one of the most bitter and longest to date. The union had asked for an increase in wages from 73 to 98 cents an hour, and negotiations had been going on for nearly a year. Madame Casgrain referred to the arrival of the Quebec provin- cial police on the scene, timed to time management had told the strikers they could have a 12 cents check-off, grievance would have wrecked the union.

Due to the fact that the new rector Rev. Mr, Irwin will not take over his duties as new rec- tor of the parish until the first of February, on the advise of the Bishop .the meeting was under the able chairmanship of Richard Wal- ker, who served three years pre- viously as people's warden. A. Bellingham opened the meet-~ ing with a short prayer, after which the chairman declared the meeting open for business. The minutes of the last year's meeting were read and adopted, followed by the reports of the war- dens and various groups. in the church. Of particular interest to all was the splendid report given by the wardens on the financial aspect of the church. At this time last year, the budget for the com- ing year had to include many items left unpaid at th. end of the previous year, whereas this year the budget can be devoted solely to- new matters.

Mr. Tyler has travelled extensively through Eu- yope as well as Alaska. Vestry Meeting At Holy Trinity man pointed out, was due to the unfailing and tireless efforts of the church's workers. As the various reports were studied, it was evi- dent that each one without excep- tion showed a sound financial for the coming year. Roy Cunliffe, the envelope sec- retary, stated that there were on hand several packages of duplex envelopes, and advised that the members be advised of this, with the hope that the number of par- ishioners using this year would be increased. Jack Smart, the people's warden gave a report on the results of the fire in the church a few days ago. He congratulated those who acted swiftly enough to avoid a serious catastrophe, and stated that the complete report would be discus- sed at the next advisory board meeting. G. Drynan then discus- sed the recent theft of a projector from the Parish Hall, mentioning that though it. had been recover- ed by efforts of the Police depart- ment, it would be some while be- fore formaiities could be complet- ed and the projector returned. A discussion followed on the pre- paration of the rectory for the ar- rival of the new minister.

INSIDE TRACK? Some suspicion that indust- ries coming to Canada might be short-circuited to Ajax without the rest of us getting to even hear of them," was the basis of another suggestion that the Chamber execu- tive find out if the CMHC has an inside track on news of firms com- |ing to the country from overseas. up for a p "The Ajax question came before the workshop session when the industrial promotion section heard as fixed assessments, being used to that established industries were being forced to subsidize their own competition when a new plant was given a fixed rate of assessment' or | similar concessions. | ' 'Ontario municipalities are being placed in the same position | by government sponsorship of the community of Ajax,' claimed one member, 'How can we compete with a development which is back- ed by all the power and funds of CMHC and the Federal Govern- ment? At the Trade Fair a year ago the Government paid for an el- aborate display for Ajax, while the rest of us, many of whom have to operate all year on less than that single display cost, don't have a chance to compete on a fair basis.' WANT A LIMIT "While there was some sugges- tion that the Government was spending more money to recover large sums invested there during the war, general consensus was that there should be a limit on Government participation in this kind of thing." THE STORY OF AJAX In order to reply to the ques- tions posed, it is necessary to re- view, in part, the Ajax story. This story has been told many times in | The Times-Gazette, but is such | that it will bear repetition, and TRUSTEES APPOINTED In November 1950, the improve- ment district came into being un- der the trusteeship of three improve- ed residents. In status the improve ment district is a township, and is like unto any other township in its internal government. The only es- sential difference is that the gov- erning body is appointed and not elected. . The improvement district is set visional period of three | years, during which time it is ex- | pected that the affairs of the dis- | trict will be so organized, and es- | condemnation of special lures, such'| tablished that it is possible to call |an election of a governing body, | get new industries. It was claimed such as reeve, and council, or may- lor and council, to suit whatever | status the new municipality may choose to adopt, determined of course by the number of popula- tion. {CHMC ABROGATED RIGHTS In order to assist in the smooth transition from a Crown - owned area to an improvement district and subsequent full fledged muni- cipality, Central Mortgage and Housing Corporation abrogated its rights to exemption from taxation, and js pow only in the municipal picigfre as a landowner, who has land for sale, for residential or in- dustrial development. SERVICES TURNED OVER The services formerly operated by CMHC have now been turned over to the municipality, and any one who has the idea, that the municipality received a bountiful gift should remember the old adage about the "gift horse's dentures". NO SHORT CIRCUIT The suspicion that industries are being short-circuited to Ajax has no basis in fact. True, extensive ad- vertising has been promoted extoll- |ing the excellent location of the area in relation to the rest of Ontario. The fact that Ajax can offer industry serviced land; with ample power, railways, and road transportation, convenient to . the must be told, to clear up any mis- | larger centres of Ontario has been understanding, that Ajax is being | made known all over the world, but developed at the expense of the | no special inducement or lures are federal taxpayer, or competing un- | offered except these advantages. fairly with other municipalities. | There are no fixed assessments, At the end of World War II, the no special privileges, and land is munition plant at Ajax, with its no cheaper than elsewhere; in some 600 wartime homes, was as other surplus war materials, a doubtful | asset.
