Kids ask
1
ny qu.!stions
"How much are you paid?" "What is a
bylaw?" "What is a mill?" were just some
of the questions peppered at members of
McKWop Township council Monday after-
noon when teacher David Kemp and his
Grade seven pupils from Seaforth Public
School sat in on the council meeting.
The students sat attentively for two and
a half hours until council took a break and
Reeve Harvey Craig invited questions.
And by the many questions asked, it was
clear that the pupils had been taking in the
proceedings. Doughnuts and juice were
served to the polite young visitors follow-
ing the question period and they left in the
company of road superintendent Wayne
LDolmage to inspect the huge brand new
road grader council purchased last month.
Soma of the council business the
students heard included a list of grants,
some approved and some refused. Approv-
ed was a donation of $25 to each of the
following: War Memorial Children's
Hospital, London; Huron County
Historical Society and. the Seaforth Unit of
St. John Ambttlanc-e,. and$SQtQshe Blyth
Cetite
.for -the AAs; the Goderlcli"and
District Association for the Mentally
Retarded and the Huron Plowman's
Association; $550 to the Seaforth
Agricultural Society and $650 to McKillop
Federation of Agriculture.
Refused was a request for a grant from:
Seaforth and District Preschool Learning
Centre — as Councillor William Siemon
said that the centre in Seaforth was a
babysitting service and did not serve
township residents. When Councillor
Marie Hicknell said McKillop Township
children attended the centre, Mr. Siemon
replied, "The mothers should be at home
(with their children)."
Also refused was a request for a $300
grant from the Canadian National In-
stitute for the Blind at London for use in
work in Western Ontario because as Mr.
Siemon said, "...no blind. person in the
township...".
Also turned down was a request for a
grant from ihe Canadian Cancer Society
because individual local ratepayers were
canvassed.
Road superintendent, Wayne Dolmage,
was given permission to attend the Good
Roads School in Guelph May 3 to 6 and a
calcium chloride tender at $135.85 per
flake ton was approved and council set the
price for lane gravel at $2.85 per ton. Mr.
Dolmage and council will tour the
township roads on Wednesday.
Council discussed possible increases in
taxes when the budget for 1981 will be
presented at the next council meeting. It
was reported the county levy has been in-
creased by 7.43 mills calling for the
Members of Parliament

said producers are concern-
ed about competition from
agribusiness and feed com-
panies raising hogs.. The
group passed a resolution
"asking farmers to
withdraw patronage from
these companies." Also, he
said municipalities should
take another look at their
severance policies since "it
is evident that the hog enter-
prise
nterprise with a small land base
is the first to encounter
financial difficulties..." Mr.
Miller also called for faster
stabilization payments,
assistance to young farmers
and the establishment of
land for banks for those wan-
ting to enter the farming
business.

Murray Cardiff reported
that 94 percent of the last hog
stabilization claims have
been paid by the federal
government. MPP Murray
Elston warned the federa-
tion and other farm groups
must continue to actively
lobby, since consumer
groups are such a high pro-
file lobby. OFA vice-
president Ron White said the
real lobby must be at the
local level with private
members. He said it was
easier for the OFA to lobby
when they had a minority
government in office, both
provincially and federally.
He said, "the methods we
use as lobbyists will be very
important in getting our
message across."
Bill Scott, representing the
Huron County Egg Pro-
ducers, reported that
development of an export
market for eggs has been a
slow process. While CEMA
has made some sales to the
Middle East, it was at "a
substantial loss."
