CRUEL AND UNUSUAL This unpleasant distinction 'made for offenders is "cruel and unusual". So say some about the new license (legislation dealing with drivers convicted in high- way accident cases. We wonder! "Unusual" cer- tainly. But "cruel"? Let us see. Mr. G, overconfident one even- ing (because "one or two for the road" had given him an exag- gerated idea of his mastery over his death machine, killed a boy. The (boy was at .fault --(but the died. Tragedy crashed into a home when that car struck. An extreme case Yes, but only one of the many. Surely such offenders are fortunate that their red licenses don't have to be worn ,conspicuously on their person, even as the Scarlet Letter in (Colonial •days. This red license will serve as a constant reminder of a dang- erous weakness. It is expected that about (2,000 Ontario motor- ists will be affected annually. Cruel? No!

COUNTY COUNCIL A by-law to confirms three changes in the Huron county road system was passed 'Thurs- day by !Huron iConnty'Conneil on the'final day of the November session. In each case a stretch of road la being turned back to to'wnshi'p control, because ,of a alumna in route that has altered the line of a county road. The by-law to confirm the three transfers of ownership event through without ,objection or re- corded yote. One of the three changes con- cerns the county road from Clin- ton to 'Bayfield; a new road was .built (this ,year over a two-mile stretch northeast of Bayfield, to straighten the county road; about :two .miles of the older curving road has now been transferred iron the 'county (back to (Goderich twp., which ,owned the road before the :coun- ty road system was organized. A similar (transfer has been made at A•ulburn, as a result of a change in the location of the county (bridge over the Maitland River, at Auburn. !Pine approach- es to the old bridge site have now gone hank to the status of twp, roads, and the approaches to the new (bridge are the re- sponsibility of the county. Four townships are concerned in the transfer; the approaches to the old bridge were along a twp. boundary line, with East Wa- wanosh and (West Wawanosh on the norbh side of the road, and Hullett and (Colborne tswps. on the south side. The ibhird tranhfer to twp. control concerns a stretch of road in the Bluevale area, where a highway route has been 'alter- ed to improve the approaches to a railway crossing. The'aban- doned sections of highway were turned back by (bhe province to the county, and are now (passed on from the county to the imps. of Morris and Turnberry. First and second readings were given Thursday by county coun- cilors to a by-law intended to alter the status of bhe pension plan for Huron county employ- ees. The main provisions of the plan that have (been in effect will not be changed Iby the by- law, but changes have 'been de- signed to make the by-law con- form with Ontario government regulations. 'The (basis of con- tribution to tih:e pension fund, Iby the terms of the Iby-law, will continue to Ibe five percent of salary from each ' employee, matched by dollar -for -dollar con- tributions from the •county. .Having received its first two readings, the by-law goes next to the Ontario Municipal Board. If it is approved by the (0.M.B., it will come (before the January, 1956, session for third and final reading. After failing to agree, on Wednesday, on proposed giants to the .Clinton and Goderioh hos- pitals, county councilors took up the .matter again on Thursday and agreed unanimously on fig - Imes of $6,000 for (Clinton, and $35,000 for'Goderich. The action at this session is a recommenda- tion to the 1956 (Council, which will have to make the final de- cision when striking . the esti- mates for next year. The 1955 'Council's recom- mendation, 'Thursday, was that (Clinton (hospital (board should Ibe granted $6,000 of the $15,000 that 'had (been requested, toward a proposed +$45,000 remodeling project in the north wing of the main hospital (building at 'Clin- ton. Council recommended that the (Goderich hospital should re- ceive the x$85,000 toward the cost of a proposed '$870,000 building 'project, which would add a three-storey wing to the east of the present hospital building at (Goderich.
