A bylaw authorizing the • con- etruction of nine new sidewalks was given tWo readings. The Work would cost $7,903. Under the terms of the Local Improvement Act, the town would pay $3,780 and the remaining $4,122'would be eharged, against the adjacent pro- perties. The cost would be spread over 15 years.

Huekins pointed out that, in response to e request, the Public Utilities • Commission pro poses to extend a six4neh water Main on Bayfield road as far as the motel. This would cost about $7,500. The line would provide service to Blake, Gibbons and Bee - nett streets, as well as Bayfield road, If enough property owners are in favor, Town Council will auth- orize the issuing of debentures on behalf of the PUC. The cost would then be paid off by adjacent property ewners and the commis- sion over a period of years. Early Start! It is hoped to make an early start on the proposed new side- walks, once the ,affected taxpayers give their approval, but this may be dependent on the St. Lawrence Seaway! The seaway project, which is taking precedence over every other project in the nation, requires tremendous quantities of cement. Contractors who want cement for ether jobs are finding that they must operate on a catch - as -catch -can bagis.

Councillor P. Wl- kom and $. IL Blake, clerk and treasurer, to investigate thef5itu- ation and take appropriate action. "We have received no notillea- tion from the railway, but it evid- ently is going to be put into effect," said the mayor. He added that he had been talkingto R. M. Sparl- ing, local CNR agent, about it. From this conversation, the mayor said it appeared that the ONR is discontinuing the passenger train which leaves Goderich in the morning as well as the train which arrives here from Stratford late at night. He had been told that `'first class" passenger service would still be provided by the train which arrives at Goderich shortly after noon and returns to Strat- ford in the afternoon. As for mail service, Mayor Huck - ins understood that this would be discontinued entirely as far as the CNR is concerned. It is ex- pected that the post office will call for tenders immediately. to carry the mail 'between Goderich and Stratford by truck after September 30. Mayor Hawkins noted that J. Fred Edwards, NIPPefor Perth, has announced he is asking 60 muni- eipalities to. join in -n pretest over proposed curtailment of CNR pas- senger train service linking London and Stratford with liuron and Bruce ,communities. It is known that the railway also intends to curtail or suspend passenger and mail service linking Southampton and Kincardine with Palmerston and outside points. C I i nfon Objects, Too I have spoken to Mr. Miler, The mayor replied Oatbe • thought Council stoUld obtain n written statement front tho ONR, setting forth its exact intentions. He felt Goderich would be wise to contact other municipalities and members of parliament 'with the aim of lodging a united prOtest, "I certainly think .we • should protest it," agreed Councillor James Donnelly. "I think as you do, Mr. Mayor, that it should be an organized protest from' all gthe communities concerned." The mat. ' ter might have to be curled to the Board of Transport Commissioners at Ottawa, he thought. In discussion of the effects of discontinuing the morning pas, senger train out of Godericb, coun- cillors suggested it would 'result in considerable inconvenience to anyone wanting to go to, say, Tor- onto to do business. Instead of being able to complete their busi- ness and return the same day, it was said that a person would, in future, have to go down the day before and stay in a hotel over- night. '1 informal discussion beforethe Council meeting, it was suggested that the CiNlt line to Goderich is one of the most profitable in its system, because of -the heavy grain '- volume carried over it. Council- lors felt that this should more than make up for any deficit on the passenger service. 0 0 0 A fool and his money are son parted, but did you ever stop do wonder how they got together in - the first place? 111111•1•11111111Monly1olls. 11111111nrel essee s nre, eavesseeer • oftwoiemaigedp... sw./ , qn.ww440,,,w;.seanUffWWW.
