SEAFORTH REEVE TO
_
GO TO TORONTO
As a climax to the final meeting of
the year, Huron county councillors. on
Friday bore !down en increased crim-
inal justice and county constable ex -
pensee.
Heading the discussion was Reeve
George McNeil, Blyth, and member
or the Criminal Audit Board, who cit-
ed case after case in which the claim-
ed county constables' had been over-
paid for the work they brad done, or
that the offence which resulted in an
account was of such a trivial nature
as riot to require an investigation.
The cost of the administration of
(:Urinal justice, he said, has risen
front $8,924 to $21,000 and. claimed
that there were too many con-
stables, too much over -lapping.
Terming the business of being a
county constable a racket, Reeve Mc-
Nall told council there were 29 con-
stables in the county. He claimed a
greatly reduced constabulary would
be more serviceable and far less cost-
ly.
- The discussion closed with the ap-
pointment of the Warden and Reeves
McNeil and J. H. Scott to interview
the Attorney -General in regard to the
administration of justice and espec-
ially in reference to county con-
stables.
The resolution brought in by the
Property Committee recommended
strongly "that the County of Huron
take over Sky Harbor as to the lea_s-
ing of property and that the Warden's
Committee eo-operate with the offic-
ials on the problems that will arise
from time to time, no monetary obli-
gations to be -involved."
Council voted on, division, 22 yeas
end 9 nays being recorded, but be-
fore the session ended it was made
unanimous,
Speaking to the question, Reeve R.
E. Turner of Goderich. chairman of
the Property Co,rnnrittee, said he be-
lieved it would' be the first commun-
ity airport in the province and it was
a splendid gesture of co-operation
witth the Motherland. He cornmexded
'the young mets who initiated the idea.
At present, he said, the defence of
the Empire is an issue, and. Heron
County will go down in history as
the first to establish an airport. It
will have wonderful commercial pos-
sibilities as Britain is planning to
spend n•,;lears of dollars on the con-
struction• of aircraft, end the train-
ing of men. There are no betrn.ds to
the possibility of it becoming a large
industry.
Reforestation, for a number of years
now a moot'queetion before the coup
cii, was shelved for another year af-
ter it was discussed, when the Agri-
cultural Committee's report Ivas read.
The report said:
"We feel the public are not yet
ready to support the proposal yet ex-
cept locally in the various municipali-
ties where the newly planted forests
may be distributed throughout the
county in the various communities
and districts. We recommend that
owne:•s of properties unfitted for ag-
ricultur•aI• purposes be encouraged, to
take advantage of the Department of
Forestry's offer of free trees for
pla.nting."
The Clerk eras instructed "to as-
certain if the Department of Lands
and Forests will modify their refor-
estation policy so that 100 acres in
each township of- the county (1,600
aeres in all) instead of 1,000 acres or
over, can be reforested and attended
to according to the present policy of
the
Department,
and report at the
January eession."
