The Minister of AgriCulture
and Food for Ontario, Hon,
WM. A. Stewart, has announ-
ced a project under which Ont-
ario is to provide agricultural
assistance to the Republic of
Korea.
Under a plan initiated by
Ontario, and developed in co-
operation with the Federal
Government, 30 Koreans will
be brought to Canada for pract-
ical training in modern farming
techniques under a 15-month
program.
One month will be spent on
an orientation program, twelve
months will be spent by each
of the candidates on selected
Ontario farms with two months
devoted to technical training
at the new Agricultural School
at Centralia, On completion
of the training, the candidates
will return to Korea to assist in
the agricultural development
of their country.
Korea was chosen as the
recipient of the $10f.n 0E.10 set
aside by Ontario for an inter-
national aid project after dis-
cussions between the Ontario
Government and the External
Aid Office at Ottawa. Under
the project each candidate will
be granted an award including
return transportation, payment
of all required fees and a cloth-
ing and living allowance.
The trainees will arrive in
November and begin their farm
placements in mid-December.
The program marks the first
time that Canadian External
Aid Office has co-operated in
a technical aid assistance pro-
ject of this kind which has been
fully financed by a provincial
government.

GODER1CH-- Huron County
Council by a close 21-18 vote
finally made a grant to the
Blue Water Rest Home at Zur-
ich at the November Session.
Council approved the recom-
mendation of the Finance and
Executive Committee that a
grant of $26, 000 be made, be-
ing at the rate of $400 per bed
for 65 beds, from funds of the
Hospital Reserve Fund "as funds
become available" with the
final payment to be completed
by the end of 1969.
In introducing the recom-
mendation Chairman Kenneth
Stewart, McKillop, declared
it was "a wonderful home pro-
viding good service".
Concensus of feeling of
council was a grant properly
could be made to the Blue
Water Rest Home as it was
supported by the general pub-
lic, and was operating strictly
as a non-profit venture for the
benefit of the community. It
now is filled to its capacity of
65 beds.
Superintendent Lance Reed
of the rest home clinched the
deal when he addressed coun-
cil and answered queries, ap-
parently to the entire satisfac-
tion of the large majority of
members of the county council.
Several of those opposed
did so on the ground that there
would be a flood of applica-
tions for grants from rest homes
all over Huron County, but it
was laid down that these places
must be government-supported
and approved to qualify for any
future county grants.
The recorded division was as
follows:
FOR GRANT: Allan, Boyle,
Corbett, Cudmore, Dunbar,
Flynn, Geiger, Hardy, James
Hayter, Hendrick, Kerr, Lyons,
McFadden, SMith, Stewart,
Such (two), Thiel, Elgin
Thompson, Worsen. (two); total,
21,
AGAINST GRANT: Alex-
ander, Boyd, Cook, Cuthill,
Dalton, Elmer Hayter, Krauter,
Mcllwain, McKenzie, Noakes,
Pattison, Procter, Robinson,
Stirling, Talbot, Duff Thomp-
son, Westcott, Wonch; total, 18.
