At the April Meeting, a motion was introduced to send the entire road committee - six members - to the Canadian Goad Roads Convention to be held this year in Montreal. It was pointed out that the World Good Roads • Convention was to be held in conjunction with the event, and it would be a fine opportunity for the Huron County road committee to see how things are done in other parts of "the world as well as Canada. The 'motion was referred to • the executive committee for study and Friday's recommendation to adhere to former policy was' approved. At Friday's session, Elmer Hayter, reeve of ,Stanley, made a strong bid for council's recon- sideration on the matter. He a asked for a clause by clause reading of the executive commit- tee's report so that each coun- cillor would have an opportunity to vote for or , against the specific motion regarding the Canadian Good, Roads Convention: before the vote .was taken, • Exeter, Reeve Derry Boyle, well- known for his disapproval of needless convention delegates and social functions at the ex- pense of the taxpayers, called Elmer Hat'ter's suggestion "ut- terly ridiculous and unfair". Boyle termed it "double tax- • ation" since, many local municip- alities will send delegates to the Good Roads Convention. "It cost about $1,100. last year," stated Boyle. "That isn't peanuts. It is- a half mill op Exeter taxes almost." Individual voting on the mo- • tion showed overwhelming sup- port' for the small delegation to the Montreal event.

Among the benefits which have been updated :is Life Insurance coverage for employee. Max- imum insurance coverage is $25,000 for employees earning $20,000 and over; minimum cov- erage is $5,000 for employees earning less than $4,500. The • cost to the county will be approximately $38 per month to revise this schedule or, on a shared basis, $19 to the county and $19 to employees concerned. The main change in coverage is for employees earning in ex- cess of $10,000 and these changes are in line with coverage being -offered by other employers not only in the municipal field but in the industrial realm.
