ELSTON CARDIFF ASKS
NEW POST OFFICES
FOR EXETER. HENSALL
Elston Cardiff, Oonservative M. P,
for Huron last week in the House of ;
Commone urged, Federal action on
the construction of an addition to
Exeter Post Office, and on the
building of a new post office at
Hensall.
Mr. Cardiff recalled that he had /
cited Exeter's teed for a new ad. '
dition lest year during Commons
ooneideration of Public Works De.
.Partment .estimates. He had 'under-
stood then that Public Works Min-
ister WinItere would .sand en en-
gineer Sto Exeter and make `an
estimate of what was 'required.
Exeter had a good post attire buil- '
ding, but the earns/sanity had grown
to each an extent that the =rota-
modation no longer was 'large
enough. One reason for this, was!
the fact that Centralia Airport Was ,
near by and many of the air stet-
ion's personnel lived in Exeter, 1
A new post office was oeeded in
Hensall and as far as the Govern-
ment wall, concerned, it had agreed
that one should be built. The Huron
M. P. asked the minister to invest!•
gate bdth situations.
