Main, Toronto, assistant to James S, Duncan, Ontario di- rector to the fund, said the money will be distributed this week, Dis- tribution will be made on a "corn - mon denominator' of assessment of darnage in the five counties. The sixth W.O. tornado relief fund set up by Sarnia, , will not share in the $100,000 grant. Mr. Main said there was no jus- tification for giving the Sarnia fund money. He said Sarnia ap- pears to be well off, compared to the five counties. "Sarnia had a much higher proportion of insur- ance coverage compared to the counties. The ratio was 95 per cent to 30." Some difficulty was experienced by the committee in arriving at a basis of distribution because as- sessment methods used in each county were different, Mr. Main said. "Some assessed damage to buildings only and others assessed damage to buildings and livestock and other things," he said. The figures used by the com- mittee as a basis for dividing the grant are the total revised claims less the movie§ collected by public subscription and municipal grants plus anticipated provincial grants. They are: Middlesex, $390„000; Perth, $52,000; Oxford, $96,000; Huron, $115,000; Lambton, $14,000. Mr. Main emphasized that these figures will be changed when the methods of assessment of the counties is considered. He expres- sed milddisapproval at the dif- ferences in assessing claims. County fund officials for the most part were grateful for the grant. They all wished it could have been larger, but they said they recognized that money should be kept on hand in case of another disaster. Hensall.
