ihe acton free press acton ontario thuflhday october 15th m first things first ontario hydro officials have stated that thu year there will be no increase in electric rates but apparently the ratepayers trt acton will pay in their tax rates a debenture issue is contemplated to cover extra expenditures in acton and some of the expenditures would it seem need inveitiga tion before approval an 8000 truck is a pretty elaborate piece of equipment and a 4000 bill ing machine seems a big item for a town the size of acton we presume that the 800 hot water heat control will not add to the convenience of hydro users and the change of frequency is to cost 16000 if memory serves us correctly the last deben ture issue of hydro in acton was when the system was put in and the entire amount was retired from hydro funds we presume a debenture is sue will have to have the approval of coupcil or that council may seek approval of the ratepayers at the municipal elections surely the ontario hydro electric commission cannot make it obliga tory for acton to issue debentures there a many things acton ratepayers have desired for years which should have priority in a frill around the fans and the exhibit of pianos that always had ag place now we hove the tractors and mtorizod farm equipment and the display outrivals in volume anything that all the harness makers m the provtno could have at tempted the sewing machines and pianos have given way to the electric refrigerators and lelo viston sets yes the rural fairs certainly keep pace with the times but perhaps you have noted in these fair ex hibits the change from the laborious tasks to the push button control and labor saving device that in a few years have come to the farms and the homes the thing that we mourn most in passing is the fine loaves of home made bread which are not as plentiful and that good old fashioned dairy butter that so many of the farmers wives used to make so expertly we mn read and read and n ad atfuln and

our sympathies go with councils who raise the moneys for the expenditure of other boards and have little to say except meet the de mand if h e p c is to be added to the other bodies for which council

government business are worth the effort expended upon them clerkocracy according to a survey of in dustnal paper work and office costs has already gravely imperilled the efficiency of industry such at any rate is the view of u s management consultant emmett j leahy who says that m the united states today there is one clerical worker for every former in the country here s a sampling of the high cost of clerk ocracy in the united states the chances are the figures for canada with its smaller population ore relatively much higher clerical salaries in the united states claim one ninth of the nations lotal income in banks and insurance companies 52 per cent of all em ployees handle papers rather than produce new business in the chemical industry the figure is 16 per cent in textiles 26 per cent of all the work ers are in offices rather than tn production based on an estimate of the cost of paper stenography office handling and equipment it costs 20 cents to create a single piece of business paper what do we do with all the information com piled usually it s filed away and requires more clerks to keep a proper record of it of course governments have such a finger in everything
