successful one it is The started this venture last year as a trial effort- after many other societies had had charge of the show Improvements have been made in organiza tion and planning with a result which shows as soon as you step inside the door A thoughtful gesture on the Jaycees part was the invitation extended to the senior citizens of Greenacres and York Manor to preview the show on Wednesday afternoon before the crowds arrived in the evening to jostle them about A great help to the milling throng is the new rule that children under 12 are not admitted unless accompanied by an adult This helps consider ably in cutting down some of the confusion Great efforts have gone into every exhibit both in design originality and construction Both the Jaycees and the exhibitors are to be commended Go and see the show Its on until Saturday and its your town merchants on display MORE INDUSTRIES NEEDED The town engineer Don resigned last week and Newmarket lost a good man He was doing the work of three men and council must have realized this at the meeting when they accepted his resignation For at the same meeting council passed a resolution to hire a new engineer and an industrial commissioner The job of the industrial commission is to survey the sites available for industry in Newmarket and the facili ties at hand to encourage outside industries to locate here This information must also be made available to prospective companies It is certainly not a job to be combined with the position of town engineer Don was also acting building inspector This took up much of his weekends and evenings We are sorry he was burdened to this extent and wish inl ine best of luck in his new ventures wherever they may be To the Town we say Promote Newmarket New market is growing but when was the last industry en ticed into our boundaries With the annexation of the Whitchurch land south of Newmarket there are numer ous possibilities opened up for industrial expansion a manufacturer of reflect ive materials will open a plant in Lux Time Canada Ltd manufacturers of clocks leases square feet in Trafalgar township Company Ltd manufacturer of packaging Has purch ased a plant in Brampton Mr in taking his leave advised council that it should go all the way to promote new industry or not at all Judging from re sults the answer is not at all While Newmarket slag- nates these other towns forge ahead Lets do some thing about it Now CONSISTENTLY BAD Wonder anil indignation are now being expressed by Metropolitan newspapers over the consistent blun ders bad taste md inept management being shown bv the CBC The latest episode occurred last week when the producers of a CBC panel show called Live a Bor rowed Life invited a racial agitator to net the rote of Abraham Lincoln This character Well known in Tor onto for his amazing ego he lias run for various public offices but the electorate has rigidly treated him as a joke look advantage of the gullible CBC pro ducers and released a tirade against colored people which stirred up quite a fuss from those who limed in on the Why the press and the public should express won- del- over the consistent stupidity of the is difficult to understand They officially stirred up their own idea of segregation on their Sunday afternoon News Magazine Why at this stage when sections of States are trying to forget llic mob actions of fanatics in their own country should the semi a contingent of camera men interviewers etc to the trouble spots In US to show Canadian viewers of television the tragedy of racial prejudice as it still exists in some of the Slates Even the police at Little Hock Ark- warned the camera man to be careful But that was what served up on the Sunday preceding the Live a Borrowed Life blunder And this News Magazine staff as listed is bigger than that of many a Canadian Daily newspaper and all they do is to produce this one halfhour Waste and mis management apparently gets by in government cor porations but private capital would give those respons ible short shrift They are all living a borrowed life if members of parliament ever viewed their offerings All that has done is to suspend the producer for two weeks without pay What a farce I TIGHT MONEY When we first heard the expression which is now the buy word of the financial wizards we thought it referred to a tightwad who wouldnt buy a drink after sponging constantly off his friends Ralph Blackmore financial editor of the Globe and Mail gives this ex planation For many Canadians the expression tight money may only be academic but for those who have recently tried to pry a loan from their local banker tight money is as real and infinitely more painful than tight shoes The expression tight money policy is deliber ately avoided since no one in a position to officially say so will state that such a thing exists But the in dividual Canadian who has tried to put the touch on his local branch bank has made his mind up about one thing there may be some doubt as to the existence of a policy but there isnt any doubt about the money itself there isnt any Or if there is he hasnt found out how to get his hands on any part of it Here is a concrete example of what we are talking about Early last week a homeowner who lives not far from Toronto approached his bank for a loan to pay for work he was having done on his home He owns the house outright and offered to put up as secur ity in government bonds and worth of about Early last week a homeowner who lives not far stock He is also the owner of worth of bank stock but since the bank shares were shares in the bank from which he was trying to make the loan they didnt count He has a long acquaint ance with the bank manager has done business there before and has a first rate credit standing The manager wanted to cooperate but couldnt He was sincere but sorry And his regret was doubtless genuine for his branch shows a profit on loans made not on loans refused and customers antagonized The argument as to whether or not there is a tight money policy can go on indefinitely and in the con tinuing absence of leadership from Ottawa or the Bank of Canada is quite likely to do just that But in the meantime the average Canadian who is vainly trying to pry a few bundled dollars from his bank has formed one positive opinion money is tough if not indeed impossible for him to come by And it is small com fort for him to be told by Ottawa that the reason he cant get it is because things are so buoyant and boom ing in Canada these days We are drawing attention to Ibis current situation because it will undoubtedly be an issue in the next fe deral election Liberal Leader Lester Pearson is already pointing out the absence of leadership from Ottawa and the martinet Coyne as head of the Bank of Canada He just doesnt have to listen to His say is well YORK SECTOR MEETS AGAIN Natives from all churches met in Aurora this we in for achieving higher
