BARBIE EintMlNER ESHILiSnEc tau Publlabrd Drum Morning by THE BARRIE EXAMINER LIMITED slatmam SSHPol 1N1 MANAGINJ 50 WALLS vlcJRESiiJENt no besihtis duct STEAllY PROGRESS Many citizens even several members of the Barrie Chamber of Commerce have the notion that the main purpose of this organiz ation is to attract industry to Barrie lhere er those who would measure the success of the Chamber by the number of ntiustries established here over period of years However the speaker at tile fourth annual liieeting William McCullough spoke from experience of Chamber of Commerce with history of more than 100 years Mr McCul lough warned there would be lips and downs and he also pointed out how iinpos sible it would be to havelprge industries coni ing into Barrie annually lic suggesteda long term program of concentrating for two or three years on one particular industrial firm with the object in mind of persuading the directors to establish branch here But there vasIIanIotIIher suggestion pill for ward by Mr McCullough that was keenly ap preciated by several members of the Barrie Chamber The speaker referred to the money sixent by American tourists in Canada and he emphasized that Americans were much more conscious of and interested in historical places than were Canadians With in mind Mr McCullough urged more atten tion to develoiiing historical sites in the litlr onia District He commended the llulonia Committee for their aVCcomplishinents as in dicated in their report Certainly there is no community better sit uated than Barrie with regard to tourist bus iness Barrie ILI

routeto the Muskoka holiday land or to the Georgian Bay resorts such as Wasaga Beach Barrie is favorably located as base for water sports and activities such as boating and fishing The new highway will make Barrie important as the first main stopping place north of Toronto With an airport and an air harbor adequate facilities are available forl thOSe who travel by aircraft By fostering dis

For great many yIcIdrs it has been our conviction that the present system of municipal taxation in Ontiirio is an anachronism By its operlition almost the entire cost of operating an incorporated town or cily is levied against that segment of its cilixens IlllIl includes the owners of real property and its business concerns Yet great maiin of the expen dilures made from the public treasury result in benefits to all citizens taxpayers and nontaxpayers Valikc And by nontaxpayers we mean all those who do not contribute directly to the municipal coffers lhouses and so forth pay their proper share of the municipalitys upkeep in the fortn of rent is unteri lble Rental values are not adjusted upward or down avard in accordance with rising or falling tax rate instcad they are based under normal conditions it what landlordcan get for his housing accomo da from tenant who is Volherwise satisfactory to him videncc of this is that during the great le largely to thecost of relief but rental vlllticsIIIIde jclined just as steadil It is true that the rei landlord receives con jstitutes at least part of hi ncome out if which faxes maintenance fire insuranc and other ex penses milst be met But the tenant is responsible for any of these liabilities 1V Signsare not lacking that the limit of ta ion jwhich real estate can bear is rapidly being approac ed and the only solution seems to lie in broadening ether base of municipal taxation One way of accomp llshing this isthe isimen po taxfto be levied on all adult residents who make no other direct contribution to municipal expenses If there is anything inequitable about such proposal we have lyet to hear of its being presented for consideration Further we submitthat instead of being flat sum the poll tax should be calculated on fixed assessment of the individual The amount payable each each year would then fluctuate according to the tax rate Those who paid poll tax would then be less likely to vote for candidates to public office who have record of extravagance concerning the towns finances ipression ijea estate taxation steadily increased due crgemOds Al rut WI HIS Are We Evolving or Dcvolving 400ummm0DQuqn1g which
