skine, treasurer, whey. Huron Coun
ty met in its final session of the
year at Goderich Monday afternoon
lu 1940 the county will be free of
debenture debt, he said.
To a policy of “pay-as-you-go”,
practised during the past five years,
was attributed the financial condi
tion of the county. The treasurer
suggested that anticipated patriotic
grants be included in the estimates
and levied for in the tax rate. He
asked council for an indorsement of
his policy.
Outstanding in the financial state
ment was the showing of the county
roads committee, which on October
31 had a balance of $12,173.3 4 on
hand.
In his review of the year, Warden
R. E. Turner spoke of the unity of
Canadian people in war time and
its significance with the visit of the
King and Queen to this country and
to the United States last June.
He urged the erection of a cen
tral building with repair shop to
house road machinery, now scatter
ed all over the county, and told
of the purchases of a herd of pure
bred Shorthorns and other stock for
the county home also the building
of new stables.
“The advent of war has held up
our reforestation program for which
we voted $5,000 last session,” the
warden proceeded. “But we have not
thrown it overboard — it is just
abeyance.”
The lowering of the grading

“E” would cost the county $400 a
year as a result of a reduction of
that amount in the provincial grant,
council was told.
Reeve N. W. Trewartha, Clinton,
was told that at this time it was
impossible to say what the costs of
the county equalization assessment
appeal would amount to, nor who
would have to pay them.

Ask Highways Dept. To Harfl-
Surfaco Highway from Grand Bend
To Sarnia
•Council carried a motion spon
sored by Reeves Brown, Goderich
and McDonald, Ashl'ield, asking the
department of highways to hard-
surface the Blue Water Highway
from .Sarnia to Grand Bend and
from Bayfield to Kincardine. The
road was held to be in a rough, dan
gerous and dusty condition in the
summer months, and doing much
injury to tourist business.
A specially colored gasoline, ex
empt from tax, for farmers, is sked
in a motion moved by Reeve Fengan
and seconded by Reeve Cardiff. Tne
motion would have this gasoline
sold by dealers without tax so as to
avoid the long delay that farmers
now experience in getting their gas
oline tax rebates from the Govern
ment, which under the present sys
tem, has the use of the farmers'
money for months without interest.
Following the usual custom, the
Town of Goderich was asked to re
turn Reeve R. E. Turner as its 1940 j
representative. Reeve Warden is the
present Warden.
