Staff photo Staff gets pay increase Continued from page one 1.5 percent increase while C.A. Archibald, ad- ministrator of Huronview, was given a 15.2 percent hike. Ginn explained that Archibald's increase was given because the ad- ministrator is one year away from retirement and would not be working for the county long enough to have his in- crease spread over a number of years. He added that the committee decided not to award the development officer an increase because it was not certain the county needed the position and wanted to review the work of the development officer before deciding on a future wage. Ginn said he understood that the development officer had worked hard on the International Plowing Match held in Huron County this Accidents Continued from page one the first on Wednesday when a vehicle driven by William Mann, Parkhill, struck a steel post of a bridge on sideroad 15 in Stephen Township. Constable Don Mason investigated and set damage at $600. On Thursday, vehicles driven by Debra Denomme, Zurich, and James Land- sborough, RR 4 Seaforth, collided on Highway 4 in Hensall with resulting damage of $550. Constable Mason investigated. summer but pointed out that such an event will not happen again here for another ten years. He said the committee wanted the development office looked at to "justify its existence." The warden told council that Huron County is one of three counties in the province with a development office pointing out that it was very difficult to find a comparison wage. He said the committee just wanted to find out if the county really wanted the office kept operating. Morris township reeve Bill Elston did not buy the committee's reasoning and told Ginn that there may not be another International in Huron for ten years but there would be other things going on. Elston said he had worked with Commings on the plowing match and felt that the development officer did a "tremendous amount" for Huron County. He said Cummings had "brought a lot of dollars" to Huron and that he felt the job was necessary. He added that what the county paid Cummings was another thing altogether. Bill Morley, reeve of Usborne township, did not like the reasoning used by the committee. He said that despite the need to review the job done by the development officer the committee had "jeopar- dized" the job by giving Commings only a one per- cent increase. He said the man still worked for Huron NHL HOCKEY PHILADELPHIA DETROIT Coach Excursion Boxing Day DEC. 26 $21.50 per person includes return transportation and admission A Nifty Christmas Gift Call: . EXETER TRAVEL CENTRE MAIN ST., EXETER 235-0571 County and deserved the same as other employees. He said the committee can't justify giving one employee 15 percent and another one percent suggesting that an increase could have been awarded comparable to other staff and then the job reviewed. "He's still a working man in this county and this treatment is very unfair as long as he is an employee of this county," said Morley. John Flannery, reeve of Seaforth, told council he felt the increases given super- visory staff were hypocritical. He said last May council began negotiating with unions and were telling people the idea was to stay around four to six percent increases. He said that this wage package given supervisory staff was "not telling people the price of beef was going down." Bean Continued frompage one were changed during the crop disaster in 1977. He said, "The grading stan- dards were changed. Beans normally picked at 30-35 pounds were going through at the rate of 5-6 pound pickers." - In an explanation, the board's chief executive of- ficer Lewis Sherman said, "We went through a very confusing situation, We had to get as many beans in as possible. Sure, we met some commitments with less than No. 1 beans." In support of Ford's theory, Ross Reynolds com- mented, "If the rules were not changed why did they accept my 1977 beans. In reply to Vanneste's statement as to no mistakes, Carl Turnbull of Stephen said, "That comes close to a reflection on the intelligence of this audience. I would suggest the board is playing with something too big and too complicated for them to handle." Throughout the meeting the idea was brought up that dealers could upgrade beans and several wanted to know where the money went from for beans which were bought at a low grade and sold in a higher category. This was refuted by Wes Thompson of W.G. Thomp- son and Sons, one of the authorized dealers. Thompson said, "It can't be done. If we buy No. 4 beans, we have to prove they went to Food Aid." Phil Durand suggested a forward, sales program should have been initiated during 1977. He said, "Some years we have been in the forward market in May. Michigan was getting as high as $25 at that time. This delay cost Ontario producers about $4 million.
