Proposed Legislation Supports Small Town Industry Growth
Mr. Evans outlined a new provincial plan in addresses to Chambers of Commerce at Winkler and Swan River and the Winnipeg Sales and Advertising Club. The proposal provides financial aid to supplement private capital, with a provincial fund to match local corporate efforts for building, equipment, and new industries, plus help for foremen and housing. It envisions local industrial development corporations, independence for the board, and targeted support for villages like Rossburn to spur ventures.
