georgetown herald hmqlmlo v westse wwgpawrj imwaesl 22 main street s georgetown ontario wf atuaa mwnf ntbhmmr thursday november 24th 1966 editorial comment town must be booming financial organizations are not prone to speculate and when two of them decide tojopen in georgetown it indicates an in creasingly bustling future for our town it is obvious of course that things are on the upgrade several new factories are in process of construction and house building on a fairly large scale has resumed in the newer east ern subdivision the moore fjfrm property which has changed hands several times in recent years is again on the threshold of development the downtown business section has been enhanced with a large new business block and another older building is being demolished and another new building will no doubt appear in the future a large parking area has been surfaced behind one main street block why all the furore it all seems tp have subsided now but we were mystified at all the publicity which chain grocery stores received recently about prices the chains have never tried to to con ceal the fact that prices varied up and down with the same law of supply and demand which governs most phases of our econ omy they use g mmicks contests lucky draws what have you which are as com mon in other commercial fields at the same time the hue and cry was on refineries were in the m dst of a num ber of customer wooing attract ons con tests free merchandise etc clothing merchants were as always reducing prices on end season merchand se appliance dealers were offer ng n were always learning mow overhead water storage has been added to town facilities and an iron remo val plant to overcome a rusty deposit in the water supply is in process of installa tion additions have been made recently to the police department to give an adequate force for ensuring law and order in what has always beer a lawabiding town with little of the disturbances we read about in many other communities it s no wonder thrt that the toronto- dominion bank and halton and peel trust and savings co have decided to locate in georgetown we welcome themrwith ev ery assurance that their future will be hap py and prosperous centives as they always have to purchase new goods for the home drug stores featured merchandise which offered so many cents off on the large size in other words business as we know it corrtmued to operate m the same good old north american way that is has for several decades to single out food stores for criticism s most unfair to seek a system of unbranded one price items would be a radical and un welcome change from the glitter and gla rrour which we associate with today s beau tiful stores and the variety of goods they offer it would be a drab old world if the gimmicks the contests the barga ns the attract ve packing were lo d sappear mkqfg the seasons sugar and spice by bill smiley kids are great i harley to halton weetriy obeervahcms by dr harry haruy s

some of the government de partments had already passed fully previously and authoriza tion was present to pay its em ployees 10 government de partments the following day it was noted that in a suhstan tial number of departments funds were left over from previous votes to cover the pay of civil servants in those partments in addition to this it was considered possible tc transfer money out of a contln gency fund into the monies needed to complete the py of civil servants the opinion of the legal officers of the crown was obtained and they agreed this could be done on there s always someth ng

markings indicate that at no time and under no circumstances is one to enter th s markedoff area if you are making a left turn you should veer to the right then return to your lane at the immediate end of the striped patch this gives you enough room to stop and await oncoming traffic in the outside lane depend ng on the vol ume of traffic at the time frankly it s one phase of dnv ng reg ulatons

interim supply the opposition- who had been complaining bitterly that we were penalising the civ 11 servant by our refusal to send the unification bill to committee before second read ing suddenly reversed their cries and complained equally bitterly because w were now able to pay them toe minister of veterans affairs has announced that vet erans pensions will be tncreti- ed 15 fifteen percent and this increase will be retroact ive to 1st september 1966 in addition to this the war veterans allowance commonly known as the burnt out pen slon has also been increased from 994 to 105 monthly for a single person and from 161 to 175 monthly for a married person in addition to this there has been an increase in the ceilings of other income that is allowed from 133 to 145 monthly for single per sons and from 222 to 245 monthly for maried persons it is expected that the last supply motion will be introduc ed monday next which will mean a vote of nonconfidence in the government on tuesday it is unlikely however fhat the minor parties will support the conservatives who have tttcen up so much debating time that the other parties have been showing their disapproval and annoyance smile i
