georgetown herald pumklwd by hm hmnfptt umltad 22 main strct s gofgttffvn ontario w c wihn pwblliliw thursday february 2ath 1963 editorial comment should be reviewed r the recently instituted economic dev elopment loans guarantee act by the on- taptdgoernmeit came ih for stlap critic ism recently by the globe and mh which termed government action socialistic and contrary iy conservative political phikwo- last week a focalized touch was added by sam pehnce of ihe local beaumont knit ting co who spoke for hit firm and others in the province in protesting a loan by one government to sustain a firm which had taken contracts from another at prices lower than its competitors mr pennce feels that contract price is so low that the owen sound contract ts so low that it cannot produce at a profit and that not only the loan will be lost but estab lished companies like his will suffer through loss of business it is a senous matter for georgetown isnt cbc enough vancouver member of parliament tom berger would have the equivalent of the canadian broadcasting corporation m the newspaper field mr berger says he has scant regard for political reporting in newspapers and says they are unable lo report the news fairly and accurately what is requ red is an independent agency like the cbc which will keep the voter informed instead of inundating him with tons of political claptrap he is quoted as say ng the cbc has worked in radio and television i believe i would work m the newspaper held he suggests such a med um could be made available in the same way as free time broadcasts for candidates at present he claims only candidates in the parties with large resources can reach voters with their messages to mr berger we say isnt tho cbc enough or more than enough lets stick to now a current tendency by local council members to blame all the mistakes on a former council is not in our opinion accom plishing anything each council seems to coin a phrase last year it was the 5 4 vote this year it seems to be that was in 1962 in over twenty years of council report ing we have watched councillors at work we have seen good ones and bad ones wise discussion and foolish but essentially we have seen nine men trying to do their best and no matter how many bad decis- andgletvwilliams where the beaumont mill has operated for generations drift should be followed through not only by mr pen nce but by the chapter or cdmmerce nc ty town and township cpuncilsas wet ti is area is ceaselessly inarching for newindustry it is equally important toe sureithat established ndustnes operate pro- fitably and particularly are not mured by government legislation wellmeaning as its intent may be many peope some of them resident in town would be affected by reduced em ploymenl opportunities at the knitting mill the beaumont management is willing to compete in a free society for orders and to take its chances in the business world like anyone else but to have the double handicap of government subsidy to a firm to produce a government order is too much to take lying down we do not favour a government using public funds to subsidize advertising m competiton with private enterprise which is just what the cbc does and we do not favour a government newspaper the public should expect government to supply certain services at the public expense radio television and newspapers are not our idea of where lax money should go particularly when there are pnvale in dividuals willing to fulfil the same service no matter how lofty an ideal might start it would not be long before a govern ment newspaper would be looking for ad verlising revenue to help defray publication costs and private business would once ag am have a federal foot in ihe door add to this the temptation of a gov ernment in power to use its own rbrm of political persuas on m such publ cation and there would be even more danger of press abuse than presently exists with newspap ers under private ownership ions might be made there have been good ones too georgetown has emerged from one of its liveliest and controversial elections in history the voters have made their decis ions and entrusted nine men to conduct civ ic affairs this year we think a minimum of reference to past years is best the 1963 council will not make atl good decisions either and by being overly critical of those who went before a pat fern might well be set and next years phrase might be that was in 1963 the skaters waltz branch no 130 royal canadian legion women mps are few fournier benefit canadian government fund tot tl ti
