Richard Potter this week said the responsibility for deal- ing with/ Government cutbacks for Ontario hospital construction and grants for active treatment beds was solely up to local ad- ministrations and boards of gov- ernors. During the exchange, Op- position Leader Robert Nixon accused Dr. Potter of initiating a grant policy that reflects "the most atrocious kind of waste of public funds or the worst possible kind of planning." Mr.. 'Nixon said the' policy will force 1200-1500 hospital beds 'to be put mothballs". Dr. Potter replied that he felt - that what the Ministry was saying was that there are ap- proximately' _ 1200-1500 active treatment beds that are not nec- essary at the present time for the proper care of patients. The Minister said some of the beds will be used for other pur- poses. He pointed out they may be used for extended care faci- lities, for convalescent facilities or some other type of care, a lower grade of care than an active treatment patient. • The Federal Government will pay 75% of Ontario's experimen- tal guaranteed income pro- gramme if current negotiaions are concluded. The Minister of Community and Social Services has pre- viously announced that the Min- istry will pay a guaranteed an- nual income to between 800- The Essex County flood relief fund will get $1,211 from Huron and Perth counties if the county councils respect the wishes of the Huron-Perth 1967 tornado disaster fund committee. The Huron-Perth fund, with ,$1,211 left in it has been dissolved by the disaster com- mittee, The committee decided to divide the money evenly be- tween the two county councils. It suggested the councils then turn their shares over to help flood victims on Pelee Island. Mrs. Ann Burchill of Dublin, committee secretary, and Earl ance payments. The programme will commence December 1st and run to May 31st, 19'73. The second part of the pro- gramme is the initiation of a number of projects such as special grants to Conservation Authorities, improvement to pro- vincial parks and funding of la- bour intensive activities in for- est. and wildlife management and transportation., Celebrate • anniverary This year's spending will con- While there were suggestions centrate on the Municipal Em- Tuesday that a recount would be ployment Incentive Programine. requested, Mr. Nicholson said Seed-producing plants, in- cluding the conifers, appeared about, two hundred million years hiring temporary workers who 'tion day, he felt nothing would be would otherwise be receiving gained by a recount. He said he Oak trees produce bumper crops of acorns once every three or four years. Dick of R.R.2, Staffal the chairman, said about $1,000 was left In the $64,006 fund after damage assessments and pay- ments were made. The $1,000 was designated as administrative expenses - pay_ ments to committee members who spent weeks and months on the project. However most members of the committee declined the $106 or $200 allotted them. The money was then conver- ted into a bank bond by Mr.Dick and mom than $100 interest has been added. • The committee noted that a Sarnia disaster fund had con- tributed $1,000 to the Huron- Perth group and felt it would be proper to send the money along to those on the hard-hit Erie shoreline of Essex County. The move was questioned 'at first by Ellard Lange, reeve of South Easthope Township, who wondered if it was wise to have the moneysent to the Pelee area. He said he had heard that more than 70 percent of the cottages and homes damaged were Amer- ican-owned and that many of them were not lived in but held for -speculative purposes. In the end the committee voted unanimously for the motion. The county councils , because they have control of the money, Will have the ultimate say in how it will be used. • The fund was set up by a citizens' committee, which, working with the county councils, raised $32,000. The province matched the amount. A vicious twister ripped through the farming arm from Hensall to Dublin on April 17, 1967. One man was killed and heavy damage resulted.
