WHYTE imn§g) THE INDZEPENDENT, GRIMSBY, ONTARIO TOWN COUNCIL Mayor Hewson stated: "If I were to express my personal views I would certainly object to tfié erection of a winery in Grimsby, A winery is not any help. to my business. It is more or less of a detriment. I cannot see any serious objection. We have been struggl ng for seven years to get our tax rate/down and we have been claâ€" mouring for more industries. In fact the Chamber of Commerce Industrial Committee are working real hard in an‘ effort to get industries to locate here. _ Now tl}at something of a small nature comes along that will afford us more taxes and add‘tional work for the unemployed â€"then immediately comes a/ptetition against it. We canâ€" not ‘expect men to work for nothing to get new industries here only to have us turn them.down." titioning now/fwill think that it is a deâ€" triment to the community. I am wilâ€" ling to write a motion to grant the approval of the .council. Could this matter not be laid over unt‘l the plans are submitted ?" p Mr. Livingston replied that their opâ€" t‘ion expired on the fourth of April and all‘ that" they wanted> to know was, whether they were going to be granted a permit or not. 1â€"O1d Hundred. 2â€"March .

Are now qualified first aiders, â€" *VÂ¥ALUABLE TRAINING The growing recognition of the imâ€" portance of first aid knowledge among industrial workers is exemplified in the annual report of the Bell Teleâ€" phone Company of Canada. Ch‘cken thieves visited the home of Edward Lowdey at St. David‘s and made away with his entire flock of: 40 pureâ€"bred chickens. * There seems to be. a wellâ€"organized gang operating in Niagara township, as a number of similar thefts have been reported, but no clue has yet been found to the perpetrators. The heavy storm of Monday night accompanied by thunder and lightâ€" ning was responsible for blowing out several of the Dominion Power Transâ€" formers. : Some sections of the town were without lights. Employees of the company were soon on the jo» and fixed the trouble.

() Thee cjor 1) Air ‘Mayor Hewson proceeaed to puri the motion to a vote. Mr. Durham was on his feet to speak the motion. ‘"Your worship, I have two objections. First is the locationâ€"I think these people who have petitioned us have a just cause for complaint, and I think they should at least have a little conâ€" (Continued on page 8) A motion was then réad by the clerk, moved by Reeve Fonger and seconded by Alderman Moxley which read in part that the Grimsby Grape and Wine Company Limited be grantâ€" ed a permit to erect a build‘ng on Main Street West and that plans be submitted to the council for approval, the erection of same to ‘be under the supervision of the building inspector. Alderman Merritt, in speaking to the debate, sa‘d "I think that the matter of this permit hs a moral side as well as a nmoney side.. I do not think that the onus of granting a perm‘t to this wine company should be on the council. I am in favyour of Bufting it td a Â¥orâ€" of the people." _ Mr. Livingston said that there was no provision made for the taking of such a question to the people. Mayor Hewson said: "It is for the council to decide." Mr. Hugh Wolfenden was respâ€" ponsible for taking out the affidav‘t against the building and on grounds whch he knew noth‘ng about and the result is that the tow hsn‘t got the Jordan winery nor Hugh Wolfenden either." Mr. Livingston in replying to Mr. Flett stated that the matter of the Livingston Avenue winery and the deâ€" cision given had since proved that Grimsby and those men who objectea to the winery robbed the town of an industry which is today the big Jordan Wine Company. Mr. William Flett, who lives oppoâ€" ’site the site where the winery is to be erected, drew the attention of the council to the fact that some years ’ago a winery"was not allowed to erect a building on Livingston Avenue owâ€" ing to the sanitary conditions of an objectionable nature, which characterâ€" ize all wineries. "If the sanitary conâ€" dition has been so improved up to the point that Mr. Livingston believes it is, certainly a miracle has been perâ€" formed, and he tells us of the fine building that he is going to erect. It is true that we have n®palatial buildâ€" ings, no high castles and no shimâ€" mering towers in our local‘ty, but we have got our humble homes and we do not want anything that would tend to decrease the value of our property and make the community unsanitary."‘ Alderman Wilkins wanted to. know what percentage of the grapes grown in the Niagara Peninsula were used in the manufacture of wine. Mr. Livâ€" ingston said that about 75 per cent. of the grape crop was used by the winâ€" eries. Mr. Parsonage then arose in the audience and asked (Mr. Livingston how he was going to erect this buildâ€" ing at the size he said with a twenty foot driveway all around, when the lot was only 125 feet deep. Mr. Livingâ€" ston in replying stated that they would have a driveway 20 feet wide around the build‘ng. "Our directors approachâ€" ed you and asked you if you would sell an acre of your ground and you said that you didn‘t care to sell. ~I think gentleman that his worship the mayor has taken a very fair attitude. I agree with him that a winery is prcâ€" judic‘al to his busness.‘ Store Phone 108w > LAHLZLZ : O e 47 d f d P IGgaZSCA (/’/ //{,4'//7%7/’4//7; $ y » C O C H O A T C A K ES ‘-fdoz_en........
