Kinkead, board chairman, said he was "confident residents of the county would respond gen- erously," He noted that donations are ex- empt from income tax, and will be acknowledged in the newspapers where possible. Huron County's target is $5,000 of which $1,500 already has been donated by County Council. In the four counties of Huron, Elgin, Middlesex and Perth, $18,000 is to be raised. C.N.I;B. needs $46,000 this year and already has received $28,000 from municipal grants and London and Stratfordo Community Chests.
