WE note that a

the Progressive Conservative
majority. It went like this: (
“This house views with great
concern the rising cost .of muni-

ticular, the intolerable burden
of the cost of education dm
ratepayers in Ontario, and this
house deplores the failure of

Ontario Liberal Leader
Robert Nixon says, “The gov
ernment has gloated about the
fact that in this year — an
election year — there will be
no increase in provincial taxes.
But there will be a drastic in
crease at the local level —•
and dt will affect thousands who
can least afford it”
“We ihUst have action in this

we are not going to get it be-,,
cause too goveammeht is out of'

GODERICH—Huron County
Council,' at Tuesday's session,
rejected a recommendation of
the Finance Committee by a
recorded vote of 22-15 to make
a grant of $26,000 to toe Blue
Water Highway Rest Hohie,
near Zurich.
The request was laid over,
until toe November Session . of
Council for further study and
consideration. i
Amount requested was at the
rate of $400 per bed, which,
would have been taken from
monies accruing in toe hospital
reserve fund as funds became
available, with final payment
to 'be completed by toe end of
1969.
The recorded vote was as
follows; ' . '
. FOR grant: Boyle, Cook,
Cudmore, Dunbar, Elmer Hay
ter, James Hayter, Krauter,
McFadden, Noakes, Stewart,
Stirling, Talbot, Thiel, . West
cott, Wonch; total, 15.
AGAINST grant: Alexander,
Allan, Boyd, Corbett, Cuthill,
Dalton, Geiger, Hardy, Lyons,
McIlwain. McKenzie; Pattison,
Proctor, Robinson, Slmito, Such
(2), Duff Thompson,' Elgin
Thompson, Vincent, Worsell
(2); total, 22.
The Finance Committee re
ported that it had had' a dele
gation from Blue Water Rest
Home asking for consideration
toward financial assistance in
connection with toe "capital
cost of this home. ' The. Blue
Water Rest Home comes under
toe Charitable Institutions Act,
and as a result, is eligible *^for
provincial assistance through
the Ontario Department of
Public Welfare.,.
Majority of toe Finance Com
mittee felt that this particular
Home iis . caring for, or could
care for, some residents 'who
might normally be admitted to
.Huronview, the Huron County
Home near Clinton. ;
Kenneth Stewart, McKillop,
chairman of the Finance Com
mittee, presented-toe case for
the BlUe Water Rest Home
which his committee had back
ed. He said that monies would
be available as Goderich Hos
pital would be paid off this
year. He mentioned' that toe
rest home hais 25 'residents at
toe present time, “ '
Duff Thompson, Clinton, ask
ed about where the money \was
to come from.
Clerk-Treasurer J. G, Berry
explained that • final .payment
Would be made this year. to
Goderich Hospital; Winghani'.
had already been paid off. Nor
mally the County was setting
aside $50,000 per year for hos- .
pital purposes.
James 'Hayter, Stephen, said
lie was in favour of the grant
'but he- thought toe County
should be contacted before anj-
such Home was built in toe
future. He thought toe County
had plenty of space at Huron
view. “I feel we Can't afford .all
these luxuries,” he stated.
George Wonch, Clinton, h-
greed with James Hayter, but
there must be a limit to tolese
things dhd ia policy must be
laid on.
Alvin D. Smith, Turnberry,
said he had heard that there
were non-residents of Huron
County in thia Home or contem
plating coming; He felt that a
county-supported home should
be for Huron County people
only.
. Leroy Thiel, Zurich, replied
that in the.event toe home isn’t
filled, the Province has toe
right to bring in patients. M!any
said it was an individual or
ganization; actually it wasv a
non-profit group. The building
program would be a financial
benefit to the County of Huron;
whereas toe cost at Huronview
was $10,000 per bed., “Jf we can
get around spending that kind-
of money, this offer should -be
picked up;” he declared.
.“No matter where it comes
from, it seems, the money is
still coming out of the rate
payers,” James Hayter, Steph
en,, declared.
Harold Robinson,. . Hawick,
declared ‘heatedly that he would
never be in favour of this type
of thing until toe County had
definitely 'declared a policy.
Wilmer Hardy, Ooifoome,
thought council would be over
stepping its jurisdiction. The
matter should come up in 1968.
Everett McIlwain, Goderich
Township, questioned toe legal
ity of such a move' to commit
toe 1968 Council,
Stewart Proctor, Morris, said
toe Provincial, Government .'had
authorized an increase from
25 to. 65 beds It Was up
to the Province, he felt. “What
happens when all toe other
nursing homes ,in the county
come to us and ask for help?”
he asked.
Warden Donald McKenzie,
Ashfield, was of toe opinion
that the matter go .back to
committee -in'.order to* declare
a county-wide policy, perhaps
to limit such grants, if made, to
$400 per bed.
Mr. 'McKenzie moved, sec
onded by Calvin Krauter, Brus
sels, that it go back to com
mittee.
Galvin Krauter, Brussels', de
clared: “Don’t forget, the own
ers of nursing homes all over
the county will be right here
looking for help "if we make
tliis grant.” He mentioned that
one . privately-owned nursing
homie in Goderich had spent
$90,000; another in Brussels
had spent $75,000, all out of
their own pockets. He couldn’t
see why any one place such as
this should be favoured over
toe others..
The matter was referred
back to the Finance Committee
to submit a report at the Nov
ember Session of County Coun-
cil.-
