On motion of Councluo?:s Parsons an( Richardson a resolution was passed t the effect that the previous motion proâ€" hibiting persons on relief dealing a the chain stores be rescinded/ Coun: clilor Massie was not in facour of thi motion for several reasons. In th first place he said that the other store: gave as good value as the chain stores He knew this from experience and en quiry. He felt that the stores that car ried the burden of taxes in the tow: for so many years should be given :« chance. Councillor Massie referred t« the resolution recently passed by th Cobalt council whereby a man wh owed a merchant an account was re quired to deal at that store when using relief orders. Councillor Massi thought some such regulation was ne cessary in fairness to the. merchant who were carrying the burden of keep ing things going in town. He did no favour the upholding of high price: but he felt that the merchants gener ally were meeting all competition an should be given a chance to get along Mayor Drew said that personally h would prefer to favour the oldâ€"timer who had been paying taxes for year:s but the council had to remember tha (Continued on Page Eight) coins have been found to date but th is a danger that there may be more them ready to go on the market a every effort should be made to prev this.
