Industrial Commission Helps Expand Economy By K. C. BATH Industrial Commissioner - How often have you heard peo- ple in a city say "we simply} qa must get some more industry to help pay our taxes?" It is a common fallacy that attracting new industry will lower the tax rate and this is the reason most people believe municipalities set up industrial commissions. Nothing could be further from the truth. The real reason is to expand the local economy, provide more jobs and put more money into circulation. People really believe that if their municipality's tax ratio between industrial and resident- jal assessment could reach the optimum of 40-60, all their tax troubles would be solved. In Osh- awa we enjoy a ratio some- what higher than the yearned for optimum, 46-53, but our taxes are not low and our per capita debt is $250. One reason people believe that attracting more industry is the tax panacea, is because of the following much publicized figures; I am sure you have seen them before: NEW JOB EFFECTS One hundred new industrial jobs created in your city means, immediately: 300 more people; 112 more homes; $590,000 more personal income; $270,000 in bank deposits; four more retail establishments; 107 more pas- senger cars; $360,000 more re- tail sales per year; $40,000 for railroads and trucking; $100,000 of plant investment and tax val- uation. These increases are all on the Credit side of the ledger. How often though, have you seen the Debit side published? Those same 100 workers will result in: Fifty-one more school age children; two classrooms at $40,000 each; two teachers at $6000 each; one policeman at $5500; one fireman at $5500; 40 acres of residential land to be developed; 4000 linear feet of new streets, water pipes and sewer mains to be provided at a cost of about $160,000; 36,000 gallons of water to be 'supplied and sewage to be treated every y. IMMEDIATE CAUSES These are only the immedi- ate causes. We have to remem- ber that our 100 industrial em- ployees will attract about an- other 100 service employees such as store clerks, plumbers, dress-makers, cleaners, laundry workers, etc. And these addi- tional 100 men will show in- creases in the city ledger both on the credit and the debit side. And then you get the snow- ball effect; we have now add- ed approximately 600 people and: they will require another milk and bread roundsman, another bus driver, mail man, service station attendant, etc. 'and they have children, need homes and streets and services and so on too. By this time another lawyer, doctor dentist and accountant may be able to find practices in our city. And their children will have to go to school. The city has now enlarged enough to at- tract a new industry catering to the consumer field and the whole process multiplies. ROUGH CALCULATION But do you really think the city made money on the deal, and can lower your taxes? Let us just do a rough calculation. City Ledger (one year): CREDIT SIDE Industrial tax from the new industry worked at 23 cents per square foot on 15,000 square feet of plant costing $100,000 ($3450). Residential taxes from the 112 industrial workers homes at a $300 average ($33,600). Residential taxes from the new 112 service men, profes- sional men ($33,600) Commercial and business taxes received from new con- cerns begun by some of the 112 new service employees ($6100). Total -- $76,750. Capital expenditure first year: in the Four classrooms at $40,000 each ($160,000). Eight thousand feet of streets fully serviced ($320,000). Estimate of services supplied to factory ($20,000) Total $500,000. Recurring annually: four teachers at $6000 per year; two policemen at $5500 per year; and two firemen at $5500 per year ($46,000). Balance $30,750 ($76,750). BALANCE PAYMENTS The net annual balance has to pay off half a million dollars of capital expenditures financed| over 20 years. Of course, it could not do it alone and so we all pay; and the old residents and industries assist the new ones. And we must not forget that maybe the city's water pump- ing capacity may have to be enlarged, and the sewer treat- ment plant, the hospital enlarg- ed and garbage collection. More taxes to be collected could add to the city's staff, and so on and so on. These figures are very sket- chy indeed but they do show that another industry will not lower your taxes. Why then do we wish to attract industry and lems, economy. More jobs available and more money in circulation, increased by the multiplier ef- fect (see below) means wider op cause all these growth prob-|; The answer is simply that we i want to expand our municipal AFTER-SCHOOL DRAMA CLASS REHEARSES THE OSHAWA TIMES, Scturdey, June 9, 1962 3 Children Learn Thrill Of Drama By EDNA BLAKELY eve Mrs. . 7 Se OTTAWA (CP)--A year - old wa, now a_ vice-president national organization has set its|@!ong with Mrs John Thorne of sights on bringing the excite- Vancouver and Bette Anderson ment of live theatre to more|°f Edmonton.

"Our aim is not theatre train- ing for children but the cultura) development of the child itself," Mrs. Hill said. Creative drama gave children the chance to depict spontane- ously a given situation. This was the most natural method of expression for children and was especially helpful when done under direction of persons with an understanding of children at various age levels. Mrs, Hill has no formal drama education herself but has done nursery school work portunities and a better life for an increasing number of Ca- nadians. OBITUARIES That is why we have an in- dustrul commission; not to lower taxes. The multiplier effect is the continued re-use of the same dollar. A dollar paid to a manu- facturing employee is spent by him, let us say on a_ haircut; the barber pays some of his light bill with it; the PUC pays a local painter to paint their building; the painter uses it to pay off part of his debt for his car and s0 on. Regiment To Welcome Royalty TORONTO -- Plans are near- ing completion this weekend for a mass reunion of members of | the Toronto Scottish Regiment and the 75th Battalion (First | World War), to honor the forth- , coming visit of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth, The Queen Mother, to this city June 16. As colonel-in-chief of the regi- ment, she will be met at city hall by a 96-man guard of honor, under Major F. McKenna. Afterwards, Her Majesty will receive officers and wives at a civic reception. Following the city hall visit, the lieutenant-governor's lunch- eon will be held at the Royal York Hotel, and head table guests will include the recently installed honorary colonel, pub- lisher Roy Thomson, and Lt. Col. R. C. Hilborn, present com- manding officer. Major D. R. MeKillican chairman for the reunion, is ex- tending an invitation to all those who served in two world wars with the regiment to attend the get-together and reunion at Fort York Armories, commencing Saturday afternoon. He pointed out today that sev- eral important records had been lost, containing names and ad- dresses of those who served with "The Scottish". Consequently, he asks that any former members residing in Ontario try to make the To- ronto trip, if possible. If not, he adds, the Orderly Room, To- ronto Scottish Regiment, Fort York Armories, would like to hear from any former members by mail. A heavy turnout is expected for, although the regiment was mainly recruited in 1939 in To- ronto, many enlisted from var- ious Ontario centres, and two full platoons came from Sud- bury. Later, during the Euro- pean campaign, strong re- inforcements were added from all prairie provinces. At least two former command- ing officers will be present at the Armories to greet members Saturday afternoon. They are Col. John H.

German Students' Berlin Crusade TORONTO (CP) -- Three young West Berliners rolled into Toronto Friday in a brightly - painted bus, stocked with slides and films on "an idealistic trip'? to rouse con- cern for their city among Cana- dians. On the side of the bus are paintings of the wall dividing East and West Germany, the Brandenburg Gate and the face of East German Leader Walter Ulbricht. "People often say they don't care what happens in Berlin," 24 - year - old Heinz - Harro Rudiger said. 'We want to tell them that if Berlin is lost, then Europe could follow and after that North America." Rudiger, his brother Hans, 23, *Iget the health care you need, Medical Care Plan Explained Aileen Hall, New Democratic Party Candidate in Ontario Rid- ing addressed more than 400 workers Friday noon hour at the General Motors south plant and stressed the importance of a comprehensive medical plan for Canada. She stated, illness can strike anywhere, anytime and the cost of getting well again becomes more expensive every year. "How can a family budget against the cost of illness," she asked? "There is only one way through Medicare, a com- plete health insurance plan in which every Canadian partici- pates." P Miss Hall outlined what the New Democratic medical plan will do. Medicare will spread the cost over all the Canadian people. Today Canadians spend nearly half a billion dollars every year on health care. Right now, it is the sick who must meet this staggering bill. With Medicare, everyone will contribute. The cost to each person will be much lower, and there will be no sudden, crip- pling expenses. Medicare will make sure you when you need it. No means test, no charity. Every person will receive the finest medical care Canada can provide, re gardless of income. Medicare benefits will include medical, surgical and maternity care, dental and optical ser- vices, essential drugs and ap- pliances. Miss Hall said, regardless of what her opponents are saying Medicare will respect the rela- tionship between you and your doctor. He will continue to pre- scribe the treatment he thinks best. There will be only one change: the doctor's bill will not be sent to you. Instead, it will be sent for payment to a public agency. Urges Attention To Quebec Views HAMILTON (CP) -- Philippe Garigue, dean of social sciences at the University of Montreal, said Friday it would be wrong to underestimate the current separatist movement in Que- bec province. | Speaking at the annual meet- ing of the Canadian Association of Political Science, Mr. Gar- igue said the movement "is a consequence of the Canadian JAMES WILSON James Wilson, a veteran of both the Boer War and the First World War, and a former resi- dent of Oshawa, died May 19 at White Rock, British Columbia. He was in his 81st year. Born at. Setapor, India, Mr. Wilson served with the First Essex Regiment in the Buer War and the 29th Vancouver Regiment in the First World War. While a resident of Oshawa, Mr. Wilson was employed by Ontario Steel Products as an en- gineer for a number of years. He was also active in the local group of the Jehovah's Witness- es. He had lived in the White Rock district for 11 years. He is survived by his wife, Grace; a son, James of Toronto and four daughters, Grace of New Westminster; Mrs. H. Bul- lock, Toronto; Mrs. B, Salmers and Mrs. J. Maracle, both. of Oshawa. The funeral service was held May 23 from the Chapel Hill Funeral Parlor, White Rock. In- terment was in Veterans' Me- morial Park. FUNERAL OF MRS. CHARLES CORNISH Funeral' services were held from the McIntosh - Anderson Funeral Home, Friday, June 8, at 2 p.m. for Mrs. Charles Corn- ish who died at Oshawa General Hospital, Wednesday, June 6. Rev. L. Wesley Herbert, min- ister of King Street United Church, conducted the services. Interment was in Oshawa Union Cemetery. "The services were well attend- ed and the number of floral trib- utes indicated the esteem with which the deceased was held in the community. Pall bearers were Keith Thompson, Patrick Judge, Ken- neth and Douglas Edwards, James Cornish and Robert John- son, DOUGLAS MACLEAN SOANES The death occurred in New Westminster Hospital, British Columbia, Friday, June 8, of Douglas MacLean Soanes. The deceased was seriously injured in a motor accident last Feb- ruary and never recovered frum his injuries. A son of Ellen Stamp and the late John M.

The announcement that Queen Mother Elizabeth will be pass- ing through Oshawa June 16 caused the Oshawa Police Com- mission some concern at its Fri- day meeting. The commission received a copy Friday of a letter to Mayor Christine Thomas from the Lieutenant-Governor of Canada, which said that the Queen Moth- er will pass at approximately 10 a.m. via Highway 401. The question arose whether children could watch the motor- cade pass without their safety being endangered on a highway that would be heavily travelled at that time. "Who is going to protect these children?" Chief Constable Her- bert W. Flintoff wondered. He said eastbound traffic would be heavy Saturday morning. The motorcade would be westbound and would be moving at approximately seven miles per hour. But what would prevent children from running across the highway in the ex- citement of the moment, the chief worried. "With extra men posted on and under the overpasses, we can't possibly police this," he said. Mayor Will Attend Conference Mayor Christine Thomas will fly to Winnipeg Sunday night for the five-day, 1962 conference of the Canadian Federation of Mayors and Municipalities June 11 to 15, inclusive.

Pre - conference sessions on Monday and seminar sessions Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs- day of next week will be held at the Royal Alexandra Hotel, Winnipeg. West Kildonan (a Winnipeg suburb) Mayor C. N. Kushner, QC, will deliver the president's address Tuesday morning.

Royal Motorcade Causing Worry CITY AND DISTRICT Mayor Christine Thomas said that the possibility of senior Boy Scouts doing the policing had been suggested. The chief was instructed by the commission to try and make arrangements, with the aid of radio and press. Chief Flintoff said today he has been asked to place men on all overhead bridges, both top and bottom, and there will be no parking on or under any of the Highway 401 overpasses. He said he will contact the Boy Scout Association and the Ontario Regiment, seeking . as- sistance to place a crowd con- trol detail along the north side of Highway 401, between Ritson road and Simcoe street and spectators would be permitted to-see Her Majesty's motorcade from the road bank between these two points.
