OWEN sounn PAPER` 1 ADVOCATES RAlLWAY| The tax rate for the County of Simcoe tor. the current year is eight mills, an increase. of 2.4 mills over _last year. `This increase.` Treasurer D. H. Coleman told the County Council is entirely` due to the mounting expenditures on" roads and education. The '8-mill rate A isdivided as follows: 1.6 mills for roads and -6.4 for other-purposes. These rates will raise respectively $406,705.00 and $99,107.00, or a totalof .$505,812.00. The Treasu.rer said an 8-mill rate would raise approximately $500,000, whereas his estimated budget for 1928 was $550,000, still leaving a deficit. But not as lar e as heretofore. The county ha been paying some 370.000 to schools in January or each ear. these payments rightfully be ong- ing to the year revious. I-Ie de- sired to gradualy wipe this out and to do so an increased rate would be necessary foriseveral years. He also referred _to the county's high interest account, $15,000 `last year. Part of this would be recoverable from the County of Ontario, `but even al- lowing for the $119,000 which Simcoe County, was .carr ing temporarily on account of At er- ley Brid e, the bank overdraft was muc `too large. The Trees: .urer predicted increased bills from Mothers Allowances and Child- ren's Aid `Society. The trend was in that direction all over the pro- vince, he said. The buildin of a new registry office was a so an important item V which Council would have to reckonwith in the next year or two. The provincial government, he said, was most in- sistent that it be built forthwith 4--- _..__ and had written _to that effect.

It has been a subject or discussion tor over 80 years. and at one time looked to be almost an accomplished tact. During the last twelve years the railway companies have adopted a. policy or retrenchment, and very little rail- way building has been done. par- ticullarly in the East. ` lnrna nf mm smnd aitiizens have tern untarto. Owen sound is now producing freight traffic in a laraer way than ever before. and should be in a posi- tion to present a very strong case to the C'anad~lan National Raiiwaypto extend their line from Meatord to this city. `The local plants are busy and shipping heavily. while the pro- ducts of the (arm mean a great deal to railways. The development or the through grain trade via Owen `Sound has increased the tonnage over the roads. particularly the C.N.R. to a very large proportion. In addition to the grain trade. Owen `Sound is an important point in the trans--ship ment of freight to the North Shore and Upper Lake ports. `Owen -Sound is one or the most important ship- ping poln'ts in the Province. and as a revenue producer to the railways is far ahead or many places that are even larger in size. - 'l`hA Inwnn lRnund..\/Ianfor rail. ncuuarly in me mac. some of our good citiizens have never torzotten the Meatora rail- way project. and. in fact. have been accused of keeping it to the from both in and out oi! season. However, these menehoiuld be given credit for having a vision of the future. They realize that the aibsence 0-! a railway line between Owen "ound and Meaford is not only retarding the progress of both Owen Sound and Mearord but is one or the things that is holding `back the rull devel- opment oi! this north part or Wel- tevn Ontario. numn nunll in now uroducinl .FABMER SW|FE (ET8__S__T_|_%__|_E_NGTH Roads and Education V Boosit County.
