address continued from page 1 this building which will take at least another or 2 mills the georgetown arena has also been acquired and i understand der the parks act they are entitled to receive 1 mul for this purpose from the aboy facts- you will see that we now have no further surplus to dip into but must make a- ley to pay out way as we go and in addi tion to that we will have to- provide for tlmsraddllional expenditures undec takenjby the 1943 council i can see no other alternative than that the tax rate will have to be in creased in view of this i am asking thav every member of the council co- perate in seeing ihat the expenses for this year are kept as low as possible always giving due thought to the proper carrying on of the business of the municipality so that no proper ser vice will be impaired as mentioned above if the war ends there may be considerable unsettle ment of conditions here and elsewhere during the transition from we peace- we have i understand over two hundred people working at -mal- ton they may not all be able to se cure work here when the war ends i feel that the council should en deavor to see ii there are any ways and means olotitalning new industries for georgetown unless thlected representatives of the municipality give leadership in looking towards the fu ture welfare of the town you can hardly expect it of others it has been very gratifying to see the large new addition that has been added to the smith fc stone plant in town there were a great many peo ple who were very skeptical 20 years ago when smith stone located in georgetown and received a loan from georgetown this loan has been en tirely repaid with interest and geor getown now naia fine large plant em ploying 300 people a new addition as i have mentioned lias beenadded and i feci sure that in jhe near fu ture it is possible that mlth stone f ww be employing possibly 500 people have you ever realized that if the smith ston plant had not been brought to oeorgetowrrj25 years ago it is doubtful if the town would be as large as it la now this is every rea- son why we should endeavor to be ever alert to see if wecant get other industries to come and locate in our town would also ask council to give every consideration to the matter of the dump in the park this is very unsightly and unsanitary in our park and should be moved elsewhere there are many matters of interest to the ratepayers that i could call to your attention but no doubt each of these will come up for discussion aft some time during- the year and i wlh eserve my remarks imtirtneie in closing i wish to say that it js my eainestdesireto cooperate xuhj with every member of this councilawl very municipal officer of this oorpor- tion in carrying on our municipal government so that the affairs of thtt municipality will be carried on with the highest efficiency and with ttw greatest benefit to the ratepayeis whose servants we are laxa ft men30 4050 wart notmi
