GRANT $25,000 TO " CLINTON HOSPITAL A lively debate in Huron County council last week followed the read- ing of the eonunittee's recommenda- tion that the towns place their ap- peal for higher rebates with the De - pertinent of Highways for an amend- mentto the' act and the county would comply with any change. Reeve Attridge, of Goderich, , read a•portion of a letter from, the depart- ment in which it was stated that the county could, 'pay back any rebate it wished. The recommendation Of the coni- inittee was carried, after an amend- ment introduced by Reeve C. Attridge and J. P. Daly, of Seaforth, that the county rebate be a flat 75 per' cent, the same as the present rate td' vil- lages, was lost on division, 12 to 15. There wase sharp division of opin- ion between -the rural and; urban reeves on theamenclanent, and on an- other one presented by Reeves Tuck- ey, of Exeter, and W. H. Morritt, of Blyth, that the rebate to villages be increased from 75 per cent to -90 per cent, which was lost on a division vote of 8 to 19. A grant of $5,000 was authorizell to the reforestation and conservation committee for its work, also, $25 to each fall fair for a children's depart - Ment. A motion by Reeves Bowman and Tuckey, that plans for • refurnishing the court room be ohtained, to be provided for out of post-war funds, was carried. On the recommendation, of the ex- ecutive committee, the county coun- cil on' Thursday morning. authorized a grant of $25,00Cto Clinton Public 1pital toward the building of a $93,000, addition. The recommendation was thorough- ly'discussed before its adoption. It was pointed out by some members that they had heard criticism...of the council's grant df $25,000 to Wingham hospital at a former session. Others were of the opinion that an expendi- ture of $100,000 on the county hospi- tals would be a good thing in order to bring them up to date. V. D. Falconer, Reeve of tlinton, stated that he considered the grant was made as a contribution to. the hospitalization of the county. Clinton is prepared to finance the building to the extent of $38,000. Ward i are ov- ercrowded, and municipalities must make the first move ,in order to re- ceive government grants. The yeas and nays were called for and council voted 20 to 8 in favor of the grant on the following division: Yeas—Alexander, Armstrong, At- tridge, Baker, Beecroft, Berry, Bow- man, Daly, Evans, Falconer, Moffatt, Morritt, Nicholson, Pepper, Shaddick, Smyth, Tuckey, Weir, Wheeler, Win- ter.
