To. the Electors
al .1IU !lel! ;melt Archer
Russell Archer, age 34, mar-
ied with three children, moved
o the town of Clinton in Janu-
ry 1967 as manager of Beatty
Farm Service Centre and
stayed in that capacity until
August, 1970 when I started
what is known as Archer's
Farm Sales and Service.
I spent a year on Clinton
Auxiliary Police Force plus two
years on Clinton Recreational
Board before running for Coun-
cil in 1969. During the three
years I served on the Council, I
have been Chairman of Finance
and Public Works.
I decided to run for the posi-
tion of Mayor for the following
reasons;
(1) I do not believe in region-
al government but if the proper
guidance is not given to our
town then we will not have a
choice.
(2) I would like to see a pro-
gram implemented in the town,
whereby all the streets be
paved and sidewalks installed.
This could be taken over a five-
to-ten year project. If this is not
started now it could take us at
least 25 years, (The more paved
streets the less the cost of main-
tenance.)
(3) I feel that all department
heads employed by the town
should be able to run their
departments. We are not large
enough to employ a supervisor
only. We need working supervi-
sors. If this is not done as such
than I would suggest we re-
place them,
(4) I feel that any employee of
the Town of Clinton who is
drawing wages from our tax
dollars should also be contrib-
uting tax dollars to our town.
(5) I am very concerned about
the rising taxes of the home-

owners, The only way to curb
these rising taxes is by more
assessment, 11/tore assessment
requires more industry. Howev-
er, I believe we should, as a
council, concern ourself with
our present industry and help
them stay and even expand,
(6) I do not believe in anyone
making irrational promises but
I will promise that if elected I
will act on your behalf.
With the reasons listed above
I solicit your vote As mayor on
December 4th.
Don Symons
Serving the town of Clinton as
your Mayor for the past eight
years has a wonderful experi-
ence for which I shall always be
grateful.
Many changes have devel-
oped which affected our munic-
ipal status both at our local
level and the higher level of
governments. It has always
been my* aim to have my inter-
ests centred in the welfare of
Clinton, and I feel every resi-
dent of Clinton has a right to be
proud of our progressive town.
Progress is the efforts of
many interested people, meet-
ing an ultimate goal, an objec-
tive which is going to benefit us
all.
In the past term, we have
completed our first Senior Citi-
zens' apartments, and are now
in the process of preparing for
the building of an additional 20
units.
Our downtown area was
greatly improved with the addi-
tion of new sidewalks and up-to-
date street lighting.
A new industry was officially
opened which was the result of
the efforts of our active in-
dustrial committee. Industry is
Bill Crawford
If I am elected as Depty-
Reeve of Clinton, I will be look-
ing for some changes at Huron
County Council. I think it is
important that representatives
to County Council should ex-
pand their thinking to promote
the whole county rather than to
keep on bickering about local
pethiri2draChleTeffe°1ts, In the
town of CliWta:TWOuld like to
see more town improvements
such as paved streets, side-
walks, industrial development,
good policing, and plans for
remodeling the Clinton Town
Hall or erection of a new Mu-
nicipal Building.
Paved Streets: I would like to
see a budget each year for pav-
ing town streets. The cost of
maintaining * gravel streets' is
far too expensive.
Sidewalks: I have continuous-
ly, in the past, encouraged
council to budget for sidewalks.
Industrial Development: As a
council We should do every-
thing in our power to make jobs
available for our young gradu-
ates to enjoy growth in our
community. Without growth,
Clinton will not stand still—it
will automatically go backward.
Good Policing: I am always
concerned for the safety of our
citizens and it is imperative
A very essential part a our tax
structure and if re-elected as
your mayor, I will endeavour
promote the attraction of new
industry to our town,
I feel our recreation program
is of great value to the resi-
dents of Clinton and area, and
it is my hope that it will prove
to be of even greater worth to
our economy in the future.
It has been my privelege this
past year to be elected presi-
dent of the Town and Village
Section, a provincial organiza-
tion• with the parent organiza,
tion Association of Municipali,
ties of Ontario. The Town and
Village Section is one of the
largest sections of AMO.
It has been my privilege this
democratic form of government
is to survive at the national lev-
el, it can only do so if it is built
upon a foundation of local au-
tonomy. We must keep a strong
voice at the local level, in order
to survive.
To establish any kind of con-
crete programme for the ensu-
ing two years will be a chal-
lenge for any local council, but
if I am re-elected I would en-
deavour to have priority given
to:
(1) a continuing program of
street re-building
(2) a definite must would be a
sidewalk re-building pro-
gramme.
(3) a continued effort for new
industrial expansion
(4) having the areas around us
get more use from existing fa-
cilities
(5) a restructuring pro-
gramme of our several internal
systems of work methods
(6) Planned progress for Clin-
ton and area.

Charles Scanlon
Fellow ratepayers of Hullett
Township, it is my pleasure to
have this opportunity of ex-
pressing my views in this man-
ner.
I have been a member of Hul-
lett Council for five years and
during that time, I have had the
opportunity of learning how a
municipal council operates.
It is a form of municipal gov-
ernment that has been in opera-
tion for many years and I think
it has worked very well because
township councils seem to co-
operate very well with each
other.
It is my opinion that the rate-
payers should be informed on
how regional government func-
tions and have the opportunity
of voting on it before it is im-
plemented.
