The six attending from Clin- ton were Barbara Knox, Dar- lene Hanley, Permy Bateman, Pamela Burton, Joy Graham, Patsy Brown. Fiery words enlivened council proceedings on Monday evening in Clinton town hall, and caus- ed Mayor Herbert Bridle to rap his gavel sharply and call for order. The dispute arose over a dis- cussion of the proposed senior citizens apartment building which Clinton Community Cre- dit Union isplanning to sponsor. Councillor George Rumball questioned closely the repre- sentative from Co-op Construc- tion, Mr. Hawes, who attended to supply details. Mr. Rumball indicated his opinion that those members of council who had shares in the Credit Union should not enter the discussion since he felt they might be un- duly influenced. This opinion was not agreed to by Council. Mr. Hawes stated there was no connection financially between his organ ization and the Credit Union. Mr. Rumball contended there Was a difference in this inst- ance. The Credit Union was in the proposal to gain profit, whereas a church or private in- dividual putting up the apart- ment under the provincial gov- ernment sponsorship would not be looking for a profit Mr. Hawes noted that the Board in charge of the apart- ments if built would have nine members — 'two appointed in perpetuity by the United Co- operatives and seven appointed 'at the annual meeting. Mr. Rumball ,asked why the local Credit Union would get only 5 percent return on in, vestment, while United Co-op- eratives would get 57/s percent. He was told it was an attempt to keep costs down and to limit the advantages so that big business would not take advantage of the support Services OK'd By Commissioners Hydro and sewerage service was granted Tuesday night by the Clinton Public Utility Com- mission meeting in the board room, to Murray Johnston's new home on Maple Street. Also temporary hydro end water ser- vice will go to the Quinney Con- struction Company building the new Bank of Montreal. Water service to lots on High- way 8 requested by Cale Dou- cette and James E. Johnston was granted subject to PUC re- ceiving from them an agree- ment signed by other customers on that line. At present they are served by a three quarter inch line. The Ontario Water Resources Commission, accord- ing to superintendent Jabez Rands, now insists on a six-inch line in these circumstances, Tenders were considered on truck chassis, but further in- formation is required before a decision is made. Further consideration was giv- en the idea of putting electri- cal equipment in the Home Economics room at CDCI in co- operation with Blyth PUC and with the rural hydro. offered by the government and put up huge quantities of these structures. Mr. Rumball felt the plan was against interests of local builders; against interests of local appliance dealers, and (if tax concessions were given as requested), against the inter- ests of the ordinary Cliritonian. Deputy Reeve M. J. Agnew supported Mr. Rumball in that for proceedings of council, those having special interests should abstain from talking. Councillor Beattie spoke sud- denly, saying "This is a lot of poppycock. The Credit Union helps the community. It helps you. It helps me," Councillor Rumball spoke quickly in reply, "You're clas- sing me with those people who can't borrow from the banks and have to run to the Credit Union." Councillor J. D. Thornlike objected strongly saying, "I object to that. I belong and I borrow from the Credit Union." Councillor Rumball retorted, "I wasn't talking to you." By •this time the room was in an uproar and the mayor's gavel end call to order were none too soon. "I believe you have said something quite out of order Mr. Rumball." The subject was changed and Mr. Hawes withdrew. A request for a survey to find if a need exists for this type of housing has gone for- ward to the Department of Planning 'and Development in Toronto. No cost is involved nor no commitments made so far. OBITUARY John A. Thompson (Auburn Correspondent) Funeral service was held at the J. Keith Arthur funeral home on Monday, June 27 for John A.
