"We did advertise for homes which might consider taking in senior citizens on the same basis as being residents of Huronview. There was a good response, and these applica- tions will be reviewed by the provincial authorities before any further action is taken. "In Welland this seems to be working well.

"Early in the month we got a lot of publicity in regard to the people we were taking in and the perdiern rate; and I would like to state that as far as Huronview is concerned, many of these statements were in- accurate. "At no time have we rejected indigent patients because per- sons able to pay the perdieM rate were occupying some of these beds, "It was stated we were tak- ing people from Toronto. At no time has anyone come from Toronto. People outside Huron, enquiring about accommoda- tion, have been Old they have to be residents of Huron, ac- cording to the act, for 12 months before they can be admitted. These statements made in the paper should be checked to be sure they are correct before they are put out."

Reeve Donald McKenzie, of Ashfield, thought the Salvation Army grant of $1,200 a little low.
