gNOUGH' FOR ALL
President Truman said at New York
last week that for the first time in his-
tory it is technically possible to pro-
duce enough material goods so. that
all men everywhere may be adequately
fed, decently housed, and comfortably
clothed, There is no argument we be-
lieve to refute this statement. During
the war years all countries, especially
the United Nations have demonstrated
their ability to produce the instruments
of war and the necessities of life, There
must be however full employment if all
peoples are to enjoy the benefits named
above. During the depression years
there were people who were near the
starving point and goods were avail-
able and at a very cheap price but
they could not afford to buy them.
They were countries who needed much
that we had in over abundance but'
they could not afford to pay for these .
products. We have -the means to pro-.
duce but this means little if they can-
not be distributed for the benefit of the.
people. We must have employment,
for all and the means of dist,oibutiono

GREAT LAKES FISHING
Last year we noticed that fisher-
men who carry on their business from
from Lake Huron ports were alarMed
at the small catches of fish. Huron
County Council at that time expressed
concern. The 194:5 season has now
come to a close and the conditions in
this industry were worse, according to
reports, than last year. Ontario has
in the gat lakes a wonderful fishing
grounds but if the business is to be
kept on a profitable basis something
will have to be done about it. A prop-
er study of the conditions and the nec-
essary remedial agencies put into oper-
ation.

CONDENSED REPORT
OF COUNTY COUNCL
Huron County Council Decides To
Erect New Court House At Cost
of $275,000
The November session of Huron
County Council opened at Goderich op
Tuesday afternoon, last week. In a
brief address Warden Alexander spoke
of the end of the world conflict and
reminded there was still much to do
to establish peace.
He spoke with pride of the success
of the Ninth Victory Loan in Huron
county, the quota for-which had been
well exceeded. He urged that a cord-
ial welcome be extended to the ser-
vicemen and women returning to their
homes, and hoped every effort would
be put forth to assist them in rahabil-
itating themselves in tcivil life.
The health nursing scheme inaugur-
ated in August is a success; and the
new county librarian is filling the posi-
tion satisfactorily, he declared.
The warden closed his address by
asking for harmony and co-operation
during the season, and invited the
members to the annual warden's ban-
quet on Thursday night.
Expert Surplus of $4,300
An estimated surplus of approxi-
mately ,$4,300, after the purchase of
$25,000 in-Victory bonds, was reported
in the general fund by county treasur-
er, A. H. Erskine. The estimated total
receipts at the end of the year were
reported as $217,961.01; disbursements
$213,655.
"The county highways account will
break even after the punt:rase of
$20,000 in Victory Bonds," Mr. Ers-
kine continued. "The County 'Home
committee will be within their estim-
ates. Provision has been made for the
purchase of lands for reforestation pur-
poses to the extent of $P2,500, which
was« not included in the estimates.
"Considerable progress was made
this year in securing funds belonging
to inmates of the County Home," 'he
continued. "Five new estates have
been set up in the trust fund, involving
approximately $10,000. The admini-
stration of justice costs have increas-
ed, due largely to jury trials 'for in-
'creased criminals cases."
The receipts in the Huron County
Home account totalled $26,455.97 at
Oct. 31; the bank balance is $780.16.
e. delegation of the executive of the

who briefly addressed the council. He
said that fariners bad increased their

Airport For Plowing Match
Warden Alexander stated that the
executive of the Ontario Plowmen's
Association had decided that the Port
.Albert airport would be an ideal loca-
tion for the International Plowing
Match to he held in Huron County
liPa year.
No definite answer has been given
by the Department of National De-
fence for Air to the association's re-
quest for the use of the airport,
The council endorsed the motion of
Reeves R. J, Bowman and B. W. Tuc-
key that the council recommend to the
1946 council that $2,000 be given to
the Ontario Plowmen's Association to
assist them with the plowing match.
The warden's committee reported an
expenditure of $26,449,50 front the war
effort fund, leaving a balance of
$5,180.50. The school Victory Loan
contest was sponsored and financed at
a cost of approximately $60.
The committee authorized the sale
of $30,000 of the second Victory Loan,
to be re-invested in the Ninth Victory
Loan, at a premium of $4.75 per hun-
dred, making a net profit of $1,425.
ik report of the Ontario Municipal
convention was given by Reeves Hugh
Berry of Usborne, and Brown Smyth,
of West Wawanosh:
Reeve Brown Smyth asked who is
responsible if livestock is shot by deer-
hunters. It was the opinion that the
latter should be. It was pointed out
that there is no restriction as to type
of firearms used for deer-hunting.
"I think after this season there will
be no deer left," Reeve Smyth declared.
Mrs. Eckmier, county librarian, was
introduced. She said the Huron Coun-
ty Library Association is the youngest
of ten in the phovince; one of the first
t o appoint a trained librarian, and the
first to open an office. There are at
presint 1,825 books in circulation.
Reeve R. J. Bowman, county repre-
sentative on the association, commend-
ed Mrs. Eckrnier for her work. She is
a graduate of McGill University and
fully qualified for the duties.

Prof. M. F. 'Marwick of Guelph,
spoke on soil conservation. Surveys
of soil have been made in 23 counties
in the province, that for Huron is not
completed. He spent two days in the
county studying soil areas that might
be suitable for reforestation.
Sooner or later .people will have to
make plans to better sonic regions for
the time has come when there must
be an equilibrium in the soil. The
land to be purchased for reforestation
should be that which can be purchas-
ed the cheapest, he said. He illustrat-
ed his talk with an interesting set of
slides.
On the recommendation of the com-
mittee, T. R. Patterson, county engin-
eer, was appoitted a member of the
committee and a grant of. $25 author-
ized for a reforestation demonstration
at the provincial plowing match.

ical officer of health for the county.

the ,council.
Mr. Kinkead stated that the enrol-
ment in the North Huron Inspector-
ate is 2,150 an icrease of 105 over last
