Ottawa 4ia EXPOSITOR SEAFORTH, Friday, December 3 LITTLE EXCITEMENT Seaforth's nomination meeting Monday night produced few surpris- 's. Attendance of less than a hun- glred citizens was average for similar 4occasions over the years. In returning Mayor McMaster and Reeve Scoins by acclama tion, and in Raominating four of the six cuncillors who have served the town for sev- eral years, the ratepayers indicated that on the whole there was satisfac- tion with the manner in which the government of the town had been carried on. Councillors Crich and Sharpe, who each had served for four years, indi- cated a desire to retire this year. Both made major contributions to the work of council by the broad ap- proach they adopted in connection with matters of public concern and by the careful and conscientious man- ner in which they carried out their ,responsibilities. As this is written, it is not known whether an election for council will be necessary. Should an election fol- low as a result of qualifications on Tuesday, it is hoped ratepayers will give careful attention to those they select to represent them on council. It is one opportunity presented rate- payers each year to indicate those of their fellow citizens whom they wish to conduct their affairs. In one respect, the nominations made Seaforth history. For the first time two women were elected to uunicipal office, when Mrs. A. W. .sillery and Mrs. John A. Cardno were glaened to the Public School Board. TO STRAP OR NOT TO STRAP We read recently that the Dunbar- tonshire Education Committee have decided to abolish the use of the strap u primary schools in the county and to restrict its use in secondary schools to administration by the headmaster, each "strapping" being recorded in a book kept for that pur- pose. Dunbartonshire thus becomes the first Scottish county to ban corporal punishment in schools. Councillor Carson, who described corporal punishment as a "barbaric method of disciplining pupils", said that the abolishment of the strap would bring greater understanding Between pupils and teachers. - "The strap is administered to strike fear into children. It has no other purpose." He added that a better method of keeping children in order was to de- prive them of privileges at school when they misbehaved. • inn the other hand there is the school of thought which favors cor- m* punishment, • One of its famous exponents is Field Marshal Viscount Montgom- ery, who said corporal punishment in schools might stop the "flow of hooligans and criminals into the world." The deputy NATO leader, in a lec- ture sponsored by the Teachers Col- lege of Columbia University, said English state schools do not permit corporal punishment. - He said he had never understood why, and added: "I was well beaten yself, and Iam the better for it." ,PROVINCE PAYS LESS The burden which increasing edu= 3eation costs place on municipal tax- ers is causing concern to munici- iti.es throughout the province. When he spoke here on the occa- ti of theopening of the addition to 'forth District High School, the Vincial Minister of Education, Dr. Dunlop referred to the prob- told MS audience . that pro- ntss,amounting to _ many Oh year, were easing the THE HURON EXPOSITOR centage of the costs of education which the Province is assuming by way of grants in preference to dwel- ling on the total amounts which are contributed, he would have . revealed the basic problem. The fact of the matter is that in terms of the total cost of education in many municipali- ties, the provincial grant is each year getting smaller. In other words, mun- icipal school taxes are higher today because provincial educational grants generally are lower. This is graphically illustrated by a table contained in the report of the Board of Trustees of the Grey Town- ship School Area for 1954. The table shows the amount raised by local taxes and the amount received from grants for each of the years from 1946 until 1953. During that period the cost of operating the schools nearly doubled from $24,005.54 to $46,48.64. School taxes more than doubled from $10,764.79 to $25,952.23 in the same period, but provincial grants increased by only $8,000 to $21,798. Here is the table: Raised by Legislative Year Taxation Grants 1946 .... $10,764.79 $13,596.64 1947 .... 14,281.39 13,656.04 1948 .... 15,632.93 15,687.20 1949 .... 18,106.59 17, 683.29 1950 .. - . 21,885.65 19,523.45 1951 .... 18,465.04 18,337.58 1952 ... - 25,263.22 20,702.08 1953 .... 25,952.23 21,798.00 The Ottawa Journal, worrying ov- er the matter, has this to say: "It is commonplace in the munici- pal picture that obligations have out- run income, and there is no perman- ent solution save in a complete read- justment of municipal -provincial re- lations. Real estate is and always has been the chief source of munici- pal tax revenues, and this tax on housing is reflected in the cost of liv- ing and in our entire housing picture. The taxes it must pay are a factor in every family's natural eagerness to acquire a home of its very own." "The financial relations of the pro- vince and the municipalities and the size and nature of their respective tax fields are problems demanding close study. Perhaps consideration should be given some such drastic policy as the elimination of grants, in their place the province to assume the whole cost of primary and secon- dary education." It would be drastic, but at least it would make clear where the responsi- bility lies and would ease the burden on real estate. What Other Papers Say: Bumpers For Trucks (Winnipeg Tribune) Something is being done about car and truck bumpers in Ontario. During the spring session of the Ontario Legislature, the highway law was amended to permit the lieutenant -governor in council to make regulations governing truck bumpers in that province. This piece of legislation has not yet been pro- claimed, but it has served notice on truck and bus manufacturers that they must get together to devise some kind of bumper for trucks and trans- port vehicles that will help prevent costly accidents that have become all too common. Most trucks have either a high bumper or no bumper at all on the rear. The result is that carsslide under the backs of trucks and sus- tain damage far in excess of what might be expected from the force of the collision. The unproclaimed law is designed to be an incentive to truck and bus manufacturers to devise' - and equip their products with bumpers - that will give some protection against ex- cessive damage in accidents of this kind. The Ontario government is also be- ing urged to pass a law requiring that bumpers on passenger cars be made a standard height from the ground. This is something that has been urged here in Manitoba as well. It is true that a bumpdr is not much protection in case of a serious acci- dent involving cars travelling -at high speeds. But properly made, stand- ard height bumpers could cut down the costly repair jobs resulting from minor accidents—costly repair jobs thatiplay ani important part iii,forc- a i srance rates SEEN IN THE COUNTY PAPERS Had Birthday The pant weekend was a very happy occasion for Mrs. E.

The ceuncil's Historic Committee report stated that 10,706 visitors had been recorded up to last weekend, and $2,340 was re- ceived in admission. But the pos- sibility that still more space would be needed to house exhibits was voiced by Curator J. H. Neill. "Ex- hibits are coming in faster than we can find room for them," he said, "and I hope in January that you will give permission to build a small addition on the building such as has been built this year." Reeve Terence Hunter, of Colborne, a member of the committee, paid tri- bute to the work of Mr. Neill and of Harry McCreath, another mem- ber of the committee. — Goderich Signal -Star. Fire Averted At Farm The canvas windshield on a trac- tor burst into flames and for a few minutes threatened the driving shed on the farm of Roy Elliott, Bayfield Road, Wednesday after- noon. Quick action by the owner andother men, who pushed the machine out of the shed and form- ed a bucket brigade, prevented the blaze from spreading. The tractor had been in use and had been parked in the shed only 15 min- utes before the fire was noticed. Damage was confined to the can- vas covering and some of the wires on the machine. Mrs. Elliott was the first to see smoke coming from the shed. She summoned her hus- band and called the Clinton Fire Brigade. When firemen arrived on the scene Mr. Elliott and his help- ers had everything under contro.. —Clinton News -Record.

Mark 37th Anniversary To The Editor Toronto, Nov. 23, 1954. Editor, The Huron Expositor: Dear Sir: It is quite improbable that this writer. or the great ma- jority of your 1954 readers either, will be alive to enjoy the Pleasant scene as drawn in your November 19 issue, "All Citizens Much Bet- ter Off; Income Up Fourfold in 80 Years" (The Rural Scence, Aug. '54), Nonetheless, 'the following paragraph bad its own attraction at the present juncture of the ma- terial creation, despite today's de- cline in farm revenues synchroniz- ing with the cost of the things we Purchase either holding the line or gradually increasing: "The Ameri- can National Bureau of Economic Research reports that the average family income in the United States during the year 1953 was over $5,000—four times as much as It was thirty years earlier . . . The Bureau estimates that, if the same rate of increase is maintained ov- er the next 80 years, the income Of the average Armerican family by that time will be $25,000 a year." The above is a rather pretty pie- ture. On the other hand, it is common knowledge that there in Canada one does not have to go back to the turbulent '20's to be able to multiply the average fare family cash Income merely by. '4b>ytr : If the, research chide nt anal 3300t. a . ttiutee : igt n the boundaries of the dreary ,'30's, i.e. the depression decade, 1930-39, he will find that he can multiply the average farm cash 'take' of those years by almost 'seven' to arrive at the net Perm family income of 1953 at $2,247. I suggest it is eq- ually well known that these lat- ter are, in fact, fifty -cent dollars. I do not think it need • be stress- ed, either, that today's .farmer (either in the United States -or Canada) is having, in the current slanguage, 'one heck of a time' paying his operating expenditures and hanging onto, more than 16 per cent of his gross revenues. It is these tatter, by the way, which snagg]e all the limelight, and to- wards whidh critics point to prove their idea that they (the farmers) never had it so good for so long, and that, obviously, they are in clover. Personally, I feel that the prim- ary producers' are making pro- gress, but they are not getting their proper slice of the nation's income ,south of the line, or north of it!
