Mr, Squires thought that this was asking the •Mill to grind with 'the. water that had passed, Reeve Beattie, 'of. Seaforth, thought that Seaforth had no complaints; to nhake as far as Government roads were concerned. Reeve James Marc, of Blanshard, was satisfied with the Township sys- tem of; controlling roads. Frank Bell. of Downie, thought that gas and tires tax would be a fair way to raise money to pay for the roads. Reeve J. Stewart, of North East - hope, did not think that the mileage in the county was welt adjusted. He was in favor of the suburban area system and thought that the county should take advantage of the op- portunity , to chatlge to the 'county system of controlling roads. It was peiuted out that it was almost im- possible to have the suburban area system work out in Stratford as it bordered on too many townships. W. A. Roach of Fullerton, thought the proportion of expenditure roads should be judged by the amount of use that was made of theist, This, of course. depended on their location.
