LAND SUPERINTENDENT This city's industrial director, for the last two years, has been Norman Rault. He makes no claim that he's responsible for attracting industry except that he has "determined in the last two yean what kind of industries are feas his city has certainly attracted more industry than the Stampeoe City. But Edmonton had the three Ms men, market, material in bigger proportion than Calgary to lart with, he says. Obviously proud of his city's achievements in the industrial line.

Calgary has the oil buildings and retail trade, but Edmonton has ROSEDALE MAN'S WIFE IN HUNGARY (By Hereld Correspondent DRUMHELLER -Simon Gor-dos of Rosedale, four miles east of here, is worried over his wife, whom he has not heard from since the revolution started in Hungary. Mrs. Gordos, 55, a naturalized Canadian citizen left here on Sept.

1, to visit her 75-year-old mother in Hungary. Her husband received letters regularly from her until the revolution broke out and he has not heard from her since. He has had no acknowledgement of parcels dispatched to her from here. She was due to sail from Hungary this month, and Mr. Gordos has not received word as to when she is leaving.

She has a return ticket to Drumheller. Her address in Hungary is Post Office Karancssag, province of Nograd, Hungary. To relieve his anxiety, Mr. Gordos said he will meet expenses to any agency giving him any information as to his wiV's whereabouts and safety. There were 16 other women from Canada on the same boat as Mrs.

Gordos, but none from AlbeHa, other than Mrs. TRIAL RUN AFTER REPAIRS. View of the Swedish liner Stockholm as she headed out to sea on a trial run following rebuilding of her bow at Brooklyn.

Industry and land were two separate departments until a week ago, as they are in Calgary now. The two have been amalgamated and Mr. Rault is the boss. Like Calgary, Edmonton sees its city-owned land for residential development disappearing. With the two departments as one, city officials hope that Mr.

Rault can attract industry with what's left, yet find more land for homes. Sine has had the power, for some time, to classify the use of land, there's little doubt that he will be able to make sure certain industrial land isn't used for residencesor vice versa in the future. Perhaps they can afford to look towards Calgary as a not-so-well-endowed relation; perhaps they feel they have bested the Stampede City in the scramble for valuable assessment and payrolls. Whatever the reason, neither Mayor Hawrelak nor Mr. Rault express ill feeling towards Calgary and its citizens.

And they certainly have no reason to be jealous. Could this feeling just be a one way affair, as far as industrial development is concerned? Perhaps time will fell. October Motor Vehicle Production Shows Jump OTTAWA (CP) Canadian production of motor vehicles rose nearly 19 per cent in October to 30,199 units from 23,655 in the corresponding month last year, the bureau of statistics said Wednesday. Output for the first 10 months of the year was down to 386,585 units from 396,396. Chinook's 1957 BRAND HEY 1S57 MALLI GRAFTERS TELEVISION Brand new 1957 TV sets in factory sealed cartons!

In five years $16:1,125,000 worth of industry in the metropolitan area; $113,900,000 in the trading erea in the same period; worth of expansion for existing industries this year; $8,450,000 worth of industries planned for this metropolitan area in I'M; and worth of expansion in the trading area on the planning tables. Th trading area, Edmnntonians proutiiy say, extends 100 miles on all sides on their city. Within the 50-mile radius thpy have almost 32 per rent of Alberta's population; and in the trading area they have 46 per cent of the population. Is there any wonder, they ask, that 47 per cent of the province's potential market" is within 100 miles of Edmonton? Mayor Hawrelak, while he dislikes crowing that Edmonton has done better than Calgary, still does not hestitate to admit that this city's attractions for industry re more obvious than those of the Stampede City. NEW AREAS First there was oil, which brought one company after another clustering around the trading area.

And, like a magnet, oil brought other industries, which naturally thought that if one business established in Edmonton, the city must have had something to oMer. Apart from this city's older industrial areas, there are three major new ones being sold. The Bremner Estate, Mount Lawn and Rosedale are now almost sold out. Calgary's oldest industrial district is Manchester. Highfield, now almost sold out, is the second and others are planned, but not yet ready for sale.

Edmonton's evident success in drawing unto itself new industry and business is no doubt mostly thanks to the natural resources which were placed near if. But thert are other reasons for success. EDMONTON'S APPROACH Both Edmonton and Calgary are governed by the same provincial legislation. Yet it is significant that in Calgary, often when an industry is proposed, residents of an area complain. Such, says Mayor Hawrelak, is not the case in Edmonton.

The industrial area is laid out first here. Then comes a surrounding belt of comercial development; and then a buffer zone. The result is that a citizen who moves into an adjacent residential area, "knows what he's Retting into. Anyone who is encroached upon has a right to protest and we try to avoid this," ays Edmonton's mayor. For example, homeowners on one side on fi3rd on flip South Side, have raised no ohier-tions to the commercial develop Not Exactly as Illustrated in Advanced Bookkeeping Speed Typing Speed Shorthand (Pitman and Gregg) Enroll Tonight 7 to 7:30 p.m.
