The Chamber .of Comm. merce types have been rattling their sabres — and it appears that this action of Council will be very much in the news in the coming weeks, Perhaps we should review what's behind it all. If you lived in Terrace in 1956, it was a sleepy little village with not too many stores. We had one drug store run by pionser Ben Dodds; a men’s clothing store owned and operated by Gerry Duffus; a Dime to a Dollar store (now the Winterland store building) owned by Gerry Duffus, and a furniture store in the building that is now Totem T.V,, owned by George McAdam. There were no large grocery stores. Fred Smith operated a grocery store in what is now ‘Red’s Billiard Hall, and the Co-op., had two old army buildings joined together to create a general merchandising and grocery store. There were other small stores, as wellas one dentist, Ken Mac- Pherson, and two doctors, There was a Retail Mer-: chants Association, and everyone seemed to be able to get along well and decide which days the stores would open and close. If you were downtown before ten-thirty in the morning, you’d be unlikely to find anybody open ~- and a death in the family of one of the town’s old timers meant that all the atores were closed down for the afternoon of the funeral. Tt was not unusual to see a sign on a store door saying that the owner had gone fishing or to play golf. The store owner didn’t have to worry about his " customers, after all, his was the only store of its kind in town. His customers had two cholee, walt til] the owner opened up again, or go to the mail order office and wait three weeks for his mer- chandise, Such is not the case today. | The public’s attitude towards the merchant and business people in general, has changed, Profit has become a dirty word - and if you turned up at a store today to find a sign on it “gone fishing” or “golfing”, the potential customer is more likely to consider this to be a sign that the mer- chant is doing so well, and pricing his goods so high, that excessive profits arethe _ reason for the store being closed on a normal working - day, and that the owner doesn’t need his business. Besides which, today’s ‘customer has other com- petitive stores to go to. ’ That applied to the small independent owner-operator. Under. such conditions our present Shop Closing Bylaw was conceived, and respected by all. We now have in our community the big multi- national food stores and volume merchandisers such as Woolworths, These stores are run by very efficient - managers, who are responsible to head office in one of the big cities; each one knows exactly what its competition is charging and where the pressure points are, and they all face strong competition from one another. So much for the history. Now to the present. Jn November of last year, some of the merchants decided to stay open later and put on a Midnight Madness sale, This would contravene the Shop Closing Bylaw. They went into a heavy advertising campaign on the radio and in the newspapers, urging the public to turn out and shop late. A dispute developed between the merchants that were putting on the sale and those merchants that wanted | the Store Closing Bylaw upheld. Those that did not want the Bylaw’ broken turned in complaints to the municipal administration, and then Municipal Council received a delegation from the other opposing faction of merchants asking that Council allow them to-brea the law just this once; an alleging that -it was all the fault of the salesman from the radio station who had. sold them the advertlsing ~ package for. four thousand . dollars, : and ‘all them that it was quite lawful to have a midnight sale. Faced with this, Municipal Council instructed Ad- ministration to enforce the Jaw. An injunctlon was obtained from a judge or- dering the atores not to open - but, before the administrator had the R.C.M.P. serve the injunction, he carried out a Search for missing plane VANCOUVER (CP) - A search was centred around Bella Coola, B.C., today for a missing alreraft from the- United States after a man at Langley, 5.C., reported he picked up a crash indicator signal on his radio. A Search and Rescue spokesman said Saturday e Cessna 185 with three men on board was last reported at Bella Coola, 500 kilometres northwest of *“ceamain ~so desire Vancouver, on March 24. The plane was due te have checked in at Nanalme, B.C., by Sp.m, the next day on its way south, It failed ta do so. The missing persons from © the Seattle area were identified as David Tagas, Rick Palender and R. Weacott. They are believed: to have been ona fishing trip at Bella Coola. oe, telephone poss of the members of Council -- the results of which were: two aldermen said, serve the injunction, stores wouldn't open, no need for prosecution; three aldermen said, don't serve the in- junction, but prosecute the stores if they open; one alderman said, don’t serve the injunction, don't prosecute the stores, but send them all a nasty letter. The Mayor was out of town. Majority rules. The injunetion was not served, and the prosecutor at the | court registry was asked to prosecute the offending stores, The courts are having their own problems keeping a. prosecutor, and work just is not getting, done in the court system. = Council, meanwhile, is questioning why should it get involved in a fight like this. If the merchants can’t agree amongst themselves over a bylaw which essentially only protects the storekeepers ~ the general public would welcome wide-open hours - then why not do‘away with the bylaw, : ‘ The new stores being built by Abacus, or Cloverlawn a3 it used’to be called, have agreed to come in under the present bylaw - but have informed Council that they intend forming a_tenant- merchant group to request unrestricted store haurs. I am sure that the mer- chants at the time. of the Midnight Madness Sale never dreamed that their actions would result in smoothing the way for their future competitors. We will no doubt be hearing ftom the Chamber of Commerce who, in the ab- sence of a Merchants Association, speak for that segment of the business community. The question one could - well ask is: Where was the Chamber of Commerce when Council was getting all the flack over the Midnight Madness Sale? That was the time for action.
