Huron County Council, at its*
inaugural meeting Tuesday, elected
William J. Dale, Reeve of H'nllett
Township, as Warden. Thee" only
other candidate was Reeve Roy 13.
Cousins, of Brussels'.
The motion to confirm the choice
of warden was moved by Reeve
Cousins. The new warden was for-
mally escorted to the rostrum, by
Reeve A. W. Kerslake, of Hermit,
wardens in 1953. The oath of office
was administered by Ins Honor,
T. M. Costello, county judge.
Urges New Court House
In his address to the warden,
Judge Costello urgedhthat the coun-
ty councii should seriously consider
the need tor a new court house. The
time is long past, said the judge,
when "this old •museum', was ade-
quate for its purposes as a home
for the county offices and admini-
stration of justice.
It will be necessary to scrutinize
all grants carefully and eta where
possible, said Warden Dale, if the
county is to hold its rate to 10
milia "Of course, if you want to
spend 12 mills, you'll just have to
be sure you're able to go home and
tell your supporters why you did
it.,
tProvincial estimates presented at
the Wednesday meeting of Council
suggested the .possibility that Hur-
on County may keep the same mill
rate as last year, 10 mills. Although
the mill rate is likely to be the
same, Council is budgeting for a
eldght deficit.
It is expected that $417,450 will
be raised, while expenditures are
slated to be $426,025-,a deficit of
$8,576.
Only change would be in the ac-
tual structure of the rate. Last
year Council authorized 5.75 mills
for the general account and 4.26
mills for the highways account.
The budget is usually approved at
council's june session.
This year it is proposed to take,
one mill off the, highway account
and adld it to the general one, leav-
ing the setup with 6.75 mills for
general .and 3.25 for -highways.
The clerk- treasurer explained
that last year the highways ac-
count had been built up to allow
for tyle one -mill reduction this
year.
One of the reasons for the trans-
fer to the general account is that
$125,000 must be raised to pay for
construction of > the new addition
to the County Home 'at Clinton. For
the past two.. years, Council has
levied $50,000 fd - - the addition,
making this year's levy an in-
crease
ncrease of $75,000.
The Home addition levy is the
biggest in the whole budget, ac-
counting for 2.2V mills. Cost of
operating the County Home is also
expected to increase .,this year to
$38,000, compared with $28,000 last
year, accounting for .7 mills.
