Vol. 50, No. 6 Mayor Casts Deciding Vote to COUNCILLORS FAVORED EARLIER MARK!] The town council at their February session on Monday night by ‘a vote of 5 to 4 defeated a motion to advance the opening hour for Waterioo‘s Satâ€" urday market from 1.30 to 1 o‘clock. ‘The motion sponsored by Ald. John Bauman, chairman of the town proâ€" perty committee was advanced by Mr. Bauman to eliminate what he termed "a farce", the byâ€"law setting the opening hour at 1.30 o‘clock, and which was continually broken. Mr. Bauman favored going so far as to make the market open, selling to commence anytime in the attorno?n. Council Votes 5 to 4 _ Against Time Change ‘The matter of cholce of produce disâ€" played had disappeared, he said, since no maiter what hour the marâ€" ket was to open there would always be selling ahead of that time.

The late comer will «till be the latecomer, «ince he comes for the low prices," said Ald. Honsberger. "If we make it an open market, it won‘t prosper as well", sald Ald. Frickey. "1.30 o‘clock is the ideal time. ‘The market is fine as it is, leave good enough alone," put in Mayor Ratz. Heer "It makes no difference whether vou make the hour one or oneâ€"thirty, you‘ll still have the early selling," said Ald. Miller after Ald. Welker had moved that the hour be left at 1.30 p.m. The motion when put to a vote reâ€" sulted in Aldermen Babman, Miller, ‘Toletzki and D. R.

To Estimates Committee The Waterloo Horticultural 80â€" ciety sought permission from the council for the use of the council chambers for their monthly mestings throughout the year. Permission was granted. _ Their request for their vaual grant was referred to the estl mates committee. A similar request the N. W. Humane Society for a $100 grant was referred to the Ratimates Committee, Since the town is limble for any injury to her workmen and since inâ€" surance costs for coverage would be too high, the eouncil deciined to take Bank Charges Reduced 0 U NCIL â€"SHAVING S Get Information The licensing of gaming machines in ‘Waterloo provided considerable discussion among the council memâ€" bers at Monday night‘s meeting. The matter came before the council when Town Clork N. A. Zick submitted a byâ€"law to provide for the Hticensing of all gaming machines. Ald. Bauman promptly moved that the matter be left over until the next meeting. Ald. Heer moved an amendment that the byâ€"law be given its first and second readinge, in order that machine operatore in the town might know that the byâ€"law would be passed and could enter their protests before the third reading. The motion was carâ€" ried when it was discovered that the words "automatic vending machines" were not broad enough to cover all machines. ‘The town solicitor will be asked to investigate the bylaw to ellminate any loopholes. Asks $500 Tax f Deputy Reeve Heer favored placing x license fee of $500, or high enough to make the operation of any in town prohibitive. Other members of the counc!] felt that the machines should be allowed or the young folks of the: town would go to Kitchener to play the machines and would leave "their tad‘s money" in that city, Instead of spending it at home. One member argued that a $10 fee would be about tight, making it possible for a man ‘o pay the fee and buy the machine. Another councilior argued that a man could pay for a $75.00 machine in one night from the revenue obtained by people‘s playing the machine Poll Tax Unfair _ â€"Declares Council Aldermen Feel Women W Have Thrown Men Out of Work Should be Collection of poll taw hy an order on the assessed man‘s pay envelope caused considerable diecussion at the council meeting Monday night. The poll tax system itself was the subject of etrong eriticism by several of the counciliors, they feeling the syatem was most unfair. The matter came up during the ‘ hearing of communications. A letter from O. J. Brenner, Waterloo young man, told of how his tax of $5.00 had been deducted from his pay envelope at his place of employment. Mr. \Brenner stated that in 1935 he earned a total of $331.90 doing part time work. Of this he pald board expenses of over $300. He held that the action of collecting a tax from him was most unfair. ‘The council felt that no exceptions could be made, but ordered the letâ€" ter acknowledged with a reason for not being able to give a refund. Reeve McKersle stated that he was entirely in sympathy with the man‘s complaint, ‘but pointed out that any man over 21 years of age residing in a town in which he was not a taxâ€" payer or tenant was lable to the tax. Girls, he said, bad replaced young men in many offices and industries, and yet were allowed to go free of the tax while the man whom they re placed and was out of work had to pay the tax action on the offer of A. K. Creesman, local insurance agent, to insure the town‘s employees. The clerk howâ€" ever was instructed to gather what ever data ‘Mr. Cressman had as to rates on such coverage. Join O.M.A. On the advice of Clerk N. A. Zick, the council voted to renew their membership in the Ontario Municipal Association. ‘This membership will provide the council with reports of bills, which will affect the town, be fore they are presented to the Onâ€" tario Legislature. The matter of the new income tax was most important, the clerk said, and Waterloo should not be without the Association‘s serâ€" vice Approval was glven to a request | from the Park Board to Issue "Park Fund Debentures", to finance the conâ€" | atruction of the new playground and ball park. The debentures will amount to $3.500, will be issued next fali and will be paid out of the park fund general rate. Application for approval will be sent on to the Onâ€" tario Municipal Board Pay Voluntary Fee After a lengthy discussion on the benefits of joining the Ontario Mayor‘s Association the council votâ€" ed to pay the $5.00 fee which will on title the council to all reports on acâ€" tivities of the mesociation.

Schnarr directors and ‘Titus Shants secretary. ‘The meeting was featured at noon by a very informative and most inâ€" teresting address by Mr. Hauch, of the Ontario Milk Control Board. Mr. Hauch urged coâ€"operation between producers and distributors to proâ€" mote the best interests of the two groups ‘"in this, one of Outario‘s 'bluelt and most important indusâ€" tries." Mr. Hauch spoke on three phases of the milk industry taking three etandpoints, that of health, that ‘of ‘the consumer and that of the distriâ€" ‘butor. Viewing the question from the consumer‘s standpoint, the speaker emphasized the fact that the farmer would soon have no market for his milk if he went too far to promote his own interests at the expense of the consumer. Nor could the farmer‘s |'mtereots be drastically improved in a short time, he eaid Progress must be slow, constructive and lasting. "The farmer has always been trouâ€" bted with ‘surplus‘ milk," Mr. Hauch pointed out. "Years ago the surplus milk question almost ruined many farmers. When prices dropped, the farmer increased his production 60 that he might enjoy the same reâ€" venue. For a time the farmer Obâ€" tained the same monetary returns, but, with no control exercised by the farmers as a group, the eventual re sult was disactrous, the farmer proâ€" ducing a large amount of milk for which he could find no market. Evenâ€" tually the situation gave rise to ‘priceâ€"cutting‘ . with â€" each farmer, through fis distributor, underbidding his neighbor to dispose of his proâ€" duct. But price cutting lasts only 60 long before the farmer finds M% bankrupt. ‘This story has been © ticed more than once with the same resultâ€"disaster for the farmer." Mr. Hauch paid tribute to the Kitâ€" chenerâ€"Waterloo Health authorities for the good condition of farm buildâ€" ings on milk producer‘s properties in the district. It was imposeible, he said, for the farmer to keep his buildings in first class shape with the m em o e ie stt low amount being received for milk. "It is in the interests of the farmer, consumer, and distributor for the farmer to get a fair price for his milk. There is nothing that offers such a great possibility for the copâ€" Ing with the relief problem as the return of the former buying power to the farmer, the primary producer of the nation,. Thinking consumers realize how great is the tremendous dormant buying power of the farmetr.
