New Local Industries—Ontario, Quebec and 
3ritish Columbia have made the greatest gains. 
Ontario bad a gross gain* of 99 plants em 
>loying a total of 6,047 workers and a gross 
oss of 28 plants employing 1,976 workers. 
Gains were divided as follows: relocations, 10 
slants; branches, 32 plants; new local indus 
cries, 57 plants. Losses were divided as follows: 
13 moved out of cities of this province, and 
L5 were reported going out of business. Seven 
of the gains and 9 of the losses reported in 
Ontario were intra-province movements. In 
Ontario 57 new local firms representing 43 
ndustries] were established. With the excep- 
:ion of beer and ale no more than 3 firms are 
found in any one industry. Eight new brew- 
ries, one distillery and one wine manufactory, 
nade up a little over onesixth of the new 
rms established in the province. A grouping 
>f the industries into broad classifications shows 
:onsiderable diversification: 
“ The term “gross gain™ is used because the total gain and 
loss figures include intra-province movement. 
* Beer, ale, distilled and vinous liquors included. 
" Industries were classified according to Classifications, U. S. 
Census of Manufactures.

Miscellaneous 
Industrial diversification has been character- 
stic of Ontario for some time. The 12 new 
rms employing 50 or more persons are distribu- 
ed among the following industries: beer, dis 
lled liquor, dairymen’s supplies, cheese, dyeing 
ind finishing textiles, woolen goods, boots and 
shoes, miscellaneous leather goods, paper and 
wood pulp, and paper goods.

of all sizes. Of the 57 new firms, 8 were in

150,000; 12 in cities of 50,000 to 149.999
