needed for ur municipal offices more of fice help and equipment more sewers and water more roads and lights more police and garbage collection etc etc the income from taxes would be far outweighed by the ex pense just as it was five years ago and that 50 water in crease would probably increase 75 the gloomy picture of the power rolling down the hill like a snowball was banished bv the 1959 elections lr me neilly if mr mcneilly really wants to see georgetown grow whv not pool his efforts with our industrial committee six years ago georgetown had enough industry lo take care of nearly all of the manpower of our town and it is well known that it is the wheels of industry that provide us witn a living today two thirds of our man power commutes to brampton toronto etc to find our daily bread i would suggest that mr mc neilly discover what kind of bait is used by brampton that is o enticing for the manufactur crs who are choosing brampton as their location i mav bc wtong but t feel that if the industrial land now owned bv others were in the hands of our council members we would have had industry a long time ago perhaps it is thc old story of the snake swallowing the ele phant while we have much sjmpalhy with the snake in his troubles thc onlv wav to help him is to make him disgourge his prey with industrial land 1 am told selling at only 100 dollars an acre there must bc a rea son whv such a bargain is turn cd down bv industrialists could u be that there is res tnctions as to who builds the industrial plants and could the cost of such plants outweigh the low price of the land these arc onlv a few of the questions many of us are ask irg ourselves again since 1 believe manv of the building pr as poets of he past em p iced out of town help it is only read onable to think t would be out of town help used in the con slruction of some of the build ing projects in the future this would not be much benefit to our labour problem either there is definitely something wrong when those who have already purchased houses here have lo move back to where they came from because we have no work for them here and those same people have to rent their homes at lower rent than it costs them to carrv those homes and others have lost their down payments be eause tbey tin see no future without industry in this town to sum up mr mcneilly s letter we don t love our neigh hour if we place upon his shoul dcr a greater burden than he can bear and his comments about thc five man power on council comes nearly two years late thc problem no longer ex ists it should be quite cas for the majority of us to en dure our town government pro viding they are not out man cevered by the kind of get rich schemes that nearly put us on the rocks a few years ago our town is still frantieallv trv ing to collect taxes from people who found it impossible to keep up let us direct our efforts in providing work for those already here before we contemplate anv large scale building
