Hospital closing
Letter to Editor:
So they arc' going to close the Psychiatric Hospital at
Goderich. I don't think I ever heard of any one government
doing such a crazy deed nor I don't think anyone else did
either. It puts us back 100 years.
What .good is it going to do?
Wouldn't it be better to cut the staff and operate with
enough nurses to keep the beds open than to close them all
down?
I wonder if the Davis government would not see that?
They have a lot of unnecessary staff such as -supervisors
that they don't need. They don't need supervisors . One head
nurse to look after the beds and a few more to do the nursing.
On the other hand, Goderich would make a beautiful golf
• course which I think Frank Miller has his eye on; at least I
heard it mentioned on the radio.
1 also heard that their outfit has no plans 'for a Retarded
Childrens' Centre. .
Remeber Miller and Davis it was our money that built this
hospital..
I used to pay .$344. a year h. ospital and medical while my
'brother in Saskatchewan only paid $40. ,
And as for you Bill Davis the people at Goderich were the
only ones that voted for you so why let them down?
One man's opinion from HuronCounty.

To the editor
Reader thanks Ian
(Editor's Note: Mr. McDonald, asked the Post to publish the.
following unsolicited letter.The writer, Mr. Adams has agreed
to have it published.)
Mr. Ian McDonald
Dear Ian: I see by the paper that you are helping the aged people
of Brussels to fight a $200 a year charge on a person's property
for 40 years. Yes Ian I know that you could afford that charge,
but what about all the old people and you have a lot of them in
BrusSels.
I congratulate you very highly for trying to help the needy and
the aged.Just think of the hardships, that plaster on a person's
home.
Many residents will n of be in Brussels in 40 years. And who
wants to buy a home with an extra $200 every year?
I feel the people should have a vote and if the majority said yes
then there would be no way out of it but. if 60 per dent voted no
that should be the law.
Keep tip the good work Ian, you deserve a pat on the back for
helping the needy.
Yours truly,
Chester Adams,
690 Wallace Ave., S.
Listowel.
