Councillor Kellar said that -taxes 'should' be like telephone and hydro—there should be some means ,of discontinuing services that they representedif taxpayers did not pay their accounts. Agreeing that there, had been :laxity in collecting, Mayor 'McMas- •,ter "told of a case whhere a ..rate- payers hadn't paid taxes in two years. but in that time had bought twonew cars. He had operated in this -fashion; ..he said, ,because, it was cheaper than getting money _from s ether sources. ' Plans for the tax sale which ' •eounel authorized early last win- ter are to be accelerated, follow- inga discussion as to the steps ;hat had been taken. • It was reveal - ked that a list of those • %in arrears would go forward to the solicitor. 'for checking • within two or three days. In all, there is a balance in• arrears amounting to about $30.- 000, including about $16,000 which .is subject to tax sale. ' zSurface Water is Problem Council approved an application \ being forwarded for payment of interim grant for highway work cwhich Clerk Wilson said would' amount to 'perhaps $3,000.

Cleary, Sea- 1orth grocer, that he proposed to Ahold the town responsible for dam - .age done stack as a result of -the water condition at the rear of his store on Main ,St. was re- ferred to the 'street. committee. Councillors Said that a great,deal . -of consideration • had been given to the problem, but that it was one which it was felt was not within the responsibility of the town to correct. The building had been ;erected, in the, knowledge that the ,condition existed, and there had been 'no change in the manner in • which the water flowed since that -time., Councillor Christie said that .every; co-operation had been ex- tended in an effort to correct the FRESH BAKED ,FOR TASTY EATING CLARY'S I.G: SIfiAFORTH of p oblein and that the -,.,ares ha,d, •been•gr ded apd'specked An#Selo cetaI occasions It was felt4hat:the erection of a 'wall 'along the pro, perty itself, or Perhaps a catch. basin could be of assistance, but thatthiswould have to be done by the owner. , Approval in principle r was, forth- coming for a .

Arena •;Kelp Possible • Application for assistance ,catne -to council some months ago and since that time an opinion had been' sought from the Department of Municipal Affairs. In a letter, which was read to council, it was indicated that -the town could. look after the; -'amount- in several ways. An outright,,,._ grant in the full amount could be -made without reference to the Municipal Board. On the other hand, if it was re- quired to spread payments over three years, .Municipal Board., ap- proval would be necessary. The third proposal was that payment of $1500 could be madethis year, for instance, with subsequent pay- ments dependent on decisions of subsequent 'councils. The reading of the+ letter pre- cipitated a general_ discussion of arena problems, which indicated. that certain councillors were con- cerned as to the manner in which the arena was being operated, Mayor McMaster, in answer to a query from Councillor Rivers, as to where money which is received, goes, said that a statement had been presented to council indicat- ing all receipts and expenditures, but that there was no balance. j Answering a further query from Councillor Ball as to whether the town is represented on the arena commission the Mayorsaid that he and Councillor cillor Christie were re; Ipresentatives, but that they were ;never contacted. They didn't know l about the laying of the floor until I after it was .under way, I It doesn't look good the fact that representatives of council are not consulted, Councillor Kellar said. Reeve Scoins was of the opin- ion that the council should have a paid committee from the town running the arena. The feeling of the public was that it shouldn't be run by individuals, but rather by a town committee, he said. . Councillor Kell felt that the difficulty was that the publicwas sourabout the arena, but particu- larly sour against hockey. Council learned • that during the last two years assistance to the arena had amounted only to the necessity of paying for insurance. This was compared to Goderich, for instance, where annual arena costs between, five and six thou- sand dollars were met by the town. When efforts to reach •arena commission representatives failed, the matter was deferred until they could. be present in order to an- swer council queries. Need More Information Reporting for a committee which had been named by council to Confer with'`" representatives of Maitlandbank Cemetery, Reeve Scoins said that, he and Councillors Christie and -Ball had visited the cemetery with the cemetery com- mittee. The committee asked that the municipality assist with the operating deficit of the cemetery, but it was felt that until it was known the percentage of burials originated in Seaforth, as compar- ed to the percentage that origin- ated in other area municipalities, err ll' 1. • BIG BERG—HMCS Labrador, RCN Arctic patrol ship, in- vestigates a 131/2 million -ton iceberg aground off the Labrador coast. The iceberg is 600 yards long, 300 yards wide and over 100 feet high. A. E. Collins, senior scientist in the ship, has. estimated that it displaces 2,000 times the weight of the Labra- dor and 160 times that of the liner Queen Elizabeth. It could supply each family'in a city of 120,000 with 100 pounds of ice daily for 25 years. It is the largest berg the ship has encoun- tered during the:, last two years of,, Arctic operations. She is on her fourth annual voyage of exploration in the Far North and her third successive period in support of the seaborne sup -- ply of DEW Line sites in the Canadian Arctic. Maps Of Seaforth Now Available In answerto repeated requests 'from visitors and residents, a de- tailed map of Seaforth, showing streets of the town, as well as the location of public buildings, has been published by The Huron Ex- positor. Printed on heavy ledger paper, the map is available at 50 cents a copy. a decision could not he reached. This information had been asked of the beard, and when it is receiv- ed the matter would again be re- ferred to by council. Reeve Scoins said that there were difficulties at the cemetery and mentioned particularly a vault that was in bad condition, and which he had -recommended be torn down. Councilor Scott Habkirk, chair- man of the property committee, said thatwork was under way in- stalling toilets in the Town Hall. This was being done by Frank Kling,- since the others who had tendered were not very interest- ed. Councillor Christie, chairman of the street committee, said that a total of 912 square yards of hot mix walk had been laid at a cost of $999. A decision regarding the filling inof an area on the south side of Gouinlock St. was left to the street committee. It was esti- mated that this would- cost about $125. Councillor Habkirk was instruct- ed to take such action as his com- mittee felt desirable in disposing of scales at the CNR. The CNR continues to charge a rental of $20 a year for the area in which the scales are located, and since they were not being used it would be better to give 'them away than to continue to pay rent, council indicated. Council adjourned a few minutes after 10 o'clock.
