grgetown herald published by heme newspapers limited 22 main streets georgetown ontario w c biehn publisher page 4 thursday may 5th 1946 editorial comment bridge underway decision of council to prooaed with at least one bridge project is one which will meet approval ofe largo number of the towns population the mountainview overpass across the cnr tracks harks back to the horse and buggy days a narrow bridge with ob scured vision for motorists on both sides it has been a danger to pedestrians and motorists alike particularly since the station crossing which connected one part of town with smith and stone and the papermllls was clo sed the bridge has been more extensively used both by commuters to work and by transports taking supplies to and from the mills there has been on increase tn resid ential building in this part of town too which means more children using the bridge to get to school that the ob must be undertaken at a time when georgetown is trying to keep it5 tax rate stable and make hving here big industry kaput news that a large industry which con tempiated buying 35 acres of land and tal ked of an eventual 2 000 employees has not picked up its georgetown option is a reversal of the optimistic upbeat in the towns industrial picture but wrth the town owning this choice block of land and able to sell it at an ex tremely reasonable price it is not the mis fortune that it might have been a few years back perhaps in some ways it might all work out for the best ideally georgetown would be best off wrth a number of smaller firms which would diversify industry when a town stmts too heavrfy- on one large plant bus iness recessions and labour trouble can be formidable disruptions to the municipal economy 7 days getting tiresome attractive for both people and industry is unfortunate but it is a job which must be done and cannot be indefinitely delayed a second bridge over the tracks on mairrstreet north is of almost equal impor tance andwill become more so if a plan ned shopping plaza is built on the moore farm here streams of highway traffic must funnel through a narrow bottleneck barely two car widths wide however pedestrians are protected with a separate footpath so danger of injury to them 15 minimized one impetus to replacing this bridge in the near future is the warning sounded at a town council meeting by cr harrison that if a new highway by passes this m fu ture there will be less government grant available while it cannot be considered this year certainly next years council should take a good look at an improvement plan here also it is not as if mr pringle s mystery factory were the only one on tap either the dennison firm is interested in a town location and at least one more firm has indicated it could favour a site in town georgetown s new water tower and the assurance that an ample water supply is available for the foreseeable future is a strong attraction to potential industrialists with top school facilities well organ ized sports activities attractive homes and an ideal location near enough and ust far enough from large cities to give us thetr advantages while still enjoying smaller town living georgetown can t help but at tract industry now we must continue to promote individually and collectively our good points which are many the reams of publicity about televis ions 7 days program controversy are get ting tiresome decision to drop the shows two com mentators sparked a situation where cbc producers threatened a strike induced a parliamentary investigation end riled up the public which apparently enjoys the sen sationalism so often featured on the show from what we have read the situation teems to be whether cbc producers are to be given a completely free hand to foist whatever they want on the viewing public or whether there is to be some control ex ercised by the broadcast authorities we cannot argue that a good portion of itie 7 days shows have been of high cal ibre but there have also been some ser ious flaws discussions which should ne ver have been aired and some flagrant sugar and spice mr by bill smiley imsi it s been a tough week map cannot exist on
