Mayor Donald Symons of
Clinton. coinplained, this ieek
that the local public librarY,
under jurisdiction, .of A county
board, 'purchases books people
don't want, rather than ones
they would enjoy reading.
"It's a question of demand,"
he Said at , a town council
meeting Tuesday night, "they
don't want books just 'shoved in
there. Our local library board
members met Friday and I don't
believe they left with just the
best of feelings."
The topic arose when a letter
from the county library board
was read to council. In the
message, council was informed
that county officials , have
approved a plan whereby
responsibility for maintaining
the library building will be
surrendered by the county and
returned to • the, local
government. The county will
pay rent in lieu of maintenance.
"I think that if we're involved
this much," the maykr said
"our appointees or theoard as.
such should have some ,say as, o
the type of book they want."
Mr, Symons suggested setting up
a meeting Of town
county PetincilICO and the
county librarian. • .

month. Clinton hopes that when
the board first meets in January
It will decide to locate its
administrative offices in the
town.
E. C. Hill, chairman of the
Interim School Organization
Committee in Huron, simply
acknowledged the town'o
proposal contained in a letter
sent to various public officials
last month.
Mr. MacNaughton's reply said
he "will be pleased to discuss"
the matter with William G.
Davis, minister of education, "at
the earliest opportunity."
But Mr. Davis asked his
deputy, J. R. McCarthy, to
answer the town's letter and Mr.
McCarthy says only that "it is
the responsibility of the new
county board of education (to
choose the site of its offices)."
