Farmers Union Questions Both Parties
In Joint Political Meeting at Hensall
For the see•ond time since the
Ontario Farmers: Union -wee ore-
enized do Huron County, the .
group sponsored' an ieformative
:meeting for the purpose of hear.
ing both parties contesting the

Chaired by Bob Taylor the
Meeting eensieted, of ;two 20-rain-

ghton and Dr. J. A, Addison, foll-
lowea by a question and answer
period, Dr. Addison did not take
part aini the question .peelod, since
he stated his party had .not yet
had time since the leader's -
pointroent some three weeks ago,
to formulate a !Penclr,
The audience la about 125 per-
sons was mainly farm folk, threw
in questions ranging from, "What
about the ,canning factory _clos-
ure?'" to "why should a farmer be
expected to pay as high. a license
to operate his farm truck, as a
man who operates a truck every
day for a living
Dr. Addison voiced his concern
over the tact ;that although, the
Frost government intended bo im-
plement the new hospitalization
plan at ;the first of 1959, there
had been no plan to alleviate the
crowding in hospitals. He suggest-
ed that the same amount of mon-
ey should be available to nursing
homes: caring for indigent pat-
ients, as for hospitals oaring for
the same type of patient. At pre-
sent, hospitals get $6 per day;
nursing homes get' $3.
He warned his hearers not to
take too seriously the fact that
the Frost government was gener-
ous+ with grants, "This is only
your own money coming back to
you."
Charlie MacNaughton spoke of
compulsory marketing, noting th-
at "careful eeamination and con-
sideration of all pertinent factions
should be undertaken before en-
abling legislation is sought and
enacted with respect to other
farm commodities." He said, "I

The house where Mr. and Mrs.
J. H. 'Cornish and family lived
for 32 years before selling to the
Co-op, was the first general store
and post office in the village, The
slot below one of the front wind-
ows is. still there, where Mail
in early days was posted. At that
time mail came from London to!

hurt. In fact. Mrs, Cornish recalls.
that 'on one of the front windows,
the name Dr. Huriburt has been
cut, probably with a diamond, and
the pane of glass is still there.
Flelloveing Dr, 1-lurlburt, the place
was occupied by Drs. Elliott and
Gunn. Dr. Gunn at one time car-
ried out an operation at the house
upon Mrs. Cornish's mother, Mrs.
George Hill. Later Dr. ,Gunn be-
gan the hospital in Clinton.
Dr. Armstrong later owned the
house, and then a Dr. Rogers.
He went to Forest to live, rent-
ing the place to others, including
Dr. Glanfised, and the last ;resid-
ent was- a John Grainger. Mr.
Cornish bought the place from, Dr.
Rogers,
The home was built by Alexand-
er Ross, who was a grandfather of
Mrs. Janet Ross and Billy :Ross,
and a great grandfather of Sel-
don Ross. •
For 29 years the front room
(formerly the post office) was
used as the Brueefield Public. Li-

rarian, Mr. Cornish conducted the
telephone office there for 16 years.
The two parts of the building
were obtained by Lindsay Eyre
and Russel Dallas', while the

Asked by Don ,Siontlloott, editor
of the Exeter .TimeseAdvocate
make a statement concerning the
new hospital school, Mrs. Mac-
Naughton abated, "Definitely and
positively it will be built in the
location south of Goderich."
Asked about the financial stan-
ding of the province, lefacNaught-
en answered that though Liberal
propaganda stated the debt to be
7360 millions, on a per capita
basis, the debt is lower now than
it has been for some time,
Queried about school taxes, the
amount paid by a fanner versus
a man living in' town and working
for someone else, Mr. MacNeugh-
ton stated he felt that considering
a farmer as: the proprietor he! was,
the farmer was taxed on an equal
basis with other proprietors of
business,
Asked about Daylight Saving
Time, Mr, Mac:Naughton stated
that times which are not uniform
are "inconvenient and for the
blade", but he didn't care person.
allY what time was used as llaug
as it was uniform.
Cost of the hospitalization plan
was estimated by Mr. leacNaugh-
ton at about $4.80 per month per
family. On: floor prices and: the
stabilization: bill, be said the
farmer was in the best position
to tell the government what they
wanted) and he felt that at both
Ottawa and Toronto the govern-
ment was ready to listen, •
Concerning the canning factory,
Mr. MaeNaughton produced a can
of Canadian grown peas, which
sold for 2 for 27 cents and com-
pared it with, a can of American
grown and imported peas selling
;at 2 for 23 cents and said, either
the producer is _eetitled! to prot-
ection, er we're pricing ourselves
out of the market.

Goderich James Bisset was
chairman of the meeting. Mr.
Wintermeyer mentioned particu-
larly the proposed new hospital
school saying " I hope you get it.
Huron is a logical place. But
I don't like the propaganda the
Progressive Conservative Govern-
ment is' using right now to try
'to move your vote. To the best
of my knowledge, no lend has
been bought, no decisions have
been made. When Mr. Frost com-
es into this area, he has a res-
ponsibility to tell you fairly and
squarely what the government has
in mind."
Mr. Wintermeyer spoke with en-
thusiasm and with sincere be-
lief in the cause of his party, He
had no notes!, but spoke in a
straightforward manner which br-
ought about strong applause.
