awn, which was quickly followed by
a majority of the representatives.
AL1 his opening address Warden
Elliott said: "I ant sure it is very
gratifying when the toll is called to
see all the members present. We are
meeting today under rather unique
circumstances. IIt is seldom two mem-
bers of this body are aspiring to a
higher position. As Mr, Ballantyne
and I have met Here today to trans-
act county affairs, 11 hope members
will conlfine themselves to the coun-
ty's business and leave provinicial_
ones out of the deliberations,
"T would like to pay special trib-
ute to the chairman of the Property
Committee, Robert Turner, Deputy
Reece of ,Godericb, who had taken
much individual pains," said the
speaker,
that the provincial !highway (the
Blue Water) has ben trade safer."
The Warden eulogized the work of
the new- clerk and treasurer, whom
he said were inert of fine calibre.
'1-lnron is to be congratulated in hav-
ing such Officials, The clerk has a sys-
tem which stands second to none.•
All of you who have (net in comauiit-
tee nevill know he 'has things in such
shape that he can lay l !s hands on
them at a moment's notice,
"The treasurer is a reran of gnat
0biii( who f1Yt11 a financial stand-
point is saving money to this county."
The former treasurer barro4•ed
000 on each account regardless of
the requirements. The present treas-
urer is borrowing as required. Over
the ,live nlvnths' period the saving in
interest is '$5(3(5, because of this sys-
tem.
The Department 'of ,High(ways noti-
fied the council in. a letter -that cer-
tain toads, comprising the Blue Wat-
er Highway, are being assumed by

ter was filed.

When storms are raging it's a comforting thought
that an experienced captain, a man of courage
and resourcefulness, is safe-giiarcling the lives of the
passengers.
Now with the storm of economic hardship and
depression passing and Ontario business safely
headed towards the harbor of better trines, it is being
suggested to the people of Ontario that they transfer
Ontario's resources from the capable hands which
tai 's at tke;
heel
piloted them safely through one of the greatest
financial crises in theworld's history.
It is being suggested to the province that it should
remove from the experienced hands of the Henry
administration the trusteeship of its agriculture, its
forests, its mines and its varied industries.
The voters are being given a suggestion that they
should transfer their billions of dollars of assets.
ONTARIO CANNOT AFFOR.D TO EXPERIMENT
The province needs the constructive, courageous program to: which
the Conservative Goverrinent is pledged.
