Huron county council accepted a recommen- dation of its legislative com- mittee that this resolution be concurred in, also a somewhat similar one from Grey. This called as well for compulsory driver training courses in sec- ondary schools. Bruce sent along five resolu- tions, all of which won concur- rence. One proposes that The federal government pass a law making the Bell Telephone Com- pany responsible for all costs when a cable is relocated on municipal roads. "Since the price of farm may chinery is steadily increasing and the quality in some in- stances deteriorating," the On- tario Government is requested to investigate, and introduce legislation requiring implement manufacturers "to provide re- pairs and service to the farmer, and that the repair depot be within a reasonable distance." The Minister of Education is urged to consider _ revision of grants to municipalities in out- lying districts for construction of new schools or additions. It is proposed that funds be .made available through ARDA to help bear the cost of estab- lishing water reservoirs in municipalities for recreation, conservation, ground water lev- el improvement, and general rural improvement. Huron joined Bruce in oppos- ing "any action to abandon any' railroad lines in Ontario," and adopted a resolution of its own: "We point out that the rail fa- cilities of the CNR in the Gode- rich-Stratford area should be reviewed by the railroad, auth- orities in view of the deplorable conditions that existed during the recent Rural Municipalities and Road conventions."

BURNS CLEANEI NO SMOKE, NO 'ODOUR HEATING -OIL Council •:roWds Three Votes irk Day SessIon Three recorded votes and one show of hands punctuated a crowded one -day session of Huron, County Council Friday, when a record budget of $3,- 138,375 was approved, a .grant to Bluewater Rest Home at Zur- ich again turned down, an arbi- trator appointed in the Tucker - smith school controversy, and a number of salary increases auth- erized. Two groups of students sat in —four West Wawanosh sections in the forenoon, in charge of Mrs. Rena Fisher, and a large party from Ashfield in the af- ternoon. Reeves Hilliard Jef- ferson and Donald McKenzie introduced the young people, who were welcomed by Warden Stewart. Closest vote of the session - 19 to 18—authorized county membership in Midwestern On- tario Development Association. The fee is $5,350.00, which cov- ers all Huron municipalities. It was added to the 1966 budget doalready prepared. Councillors t like the idea of trying to cleqllect from municipalities not in. favor of joining. Midwestern membership came before council in a report of the warden's and personnel com- mittee, which made no recom- mendation.' A breakdown of the fee showed $2,668 from munici- palities at l0c per capita s •-At the suggestion of Reeve Grant Stirling, _Goderich Township, the report was taken clause by clause, with Reeve Stewart Proc- ter, of Morris, presiding over committee of the whole. W. G. Urquhart, general man- ager of MODA, said Welling- ton, had already inaugurated the MODA on a county basis.. "We are trying for greater In- volvement, greater financial support, so we can do a bet- ter- job," he said. "What are the benefits for a rural municipality?" enquired Deputy Reeve Delbert Geiger, of Hay. - "We are trying to broaden out our program," Mr. Urquhart replied, "and make industrial and agricultural benefit more meaningful for the four -county area. The Federation of Agri- culture joins us at zone level, and has two official representa- tives on the committee to ad vise on agricultural matters. • Work For Whole County "We are at a crossroad, as far as this Four -county area is concerned," he said. "Our or- ganization is interested only in doing a good job for this area,. and there is no place for organ- izations working at cross-pur- poses. s� we . are appealing to all organizations involved in any •respect of development, and we have met with success. Governments are coming to use 1 the regional development asso- ciations more than in the past, Nearly everything is coming along by, becoming regional. and this covers a lot of aspects. Legislation is coming along, but we are asked not to say it pub- licly at pr,esent." Walden & ,BrOadfoot: Reeve A. D.

He had, been in failing health for the past year. Born in Seaforth 46 years ago he was the son of the late Wil- liam George. Pethick. He lived in Seaforth and Stratford until 1958 when he moved to Peter- borough. He was a salesman for the Star Brush Co. He was a member of Christ's Lutheran Church, Peterborough.. Surviving are his wife, the former Herta Emile Marshall,, whom he married in Stratford in 1950; his mother, Mrs. Roy Lawson, and stepfather, Roy Lad*son, both of Seaforth. The body was at the Hein - buck funeral home, 156 Albert St., Stratford, where a funeral service was held Monday at 11 a.m. Rev. Frederick Mueller, of Christ's Lutheran Church, Peter- borough, officiated. Burial fol- lowed in Avondale .cemetery. here to force them `into it.. It is like" a closed shop." Mr. Urquhart: "I am work- ing for you and for this area, and I am only doing the most effective job if I work 12 months trying to promote de- velopment in the area. The time spent in going around soliciting revenue is really wasted in the total job. We are trying to cut this to a minimum so as to get on with the job." Reeve C., E. Boyle, Exeter: "We feel these associations are a must, not- only for urban but rural municipalities, and we have joined the Lake Erie As- sociation as well." Reeve Wilmer Hardy, Col- borne: "We were not inform- ed this was going on the county budget. I think we should have a new vote." Reeve Smith: "Is there any authority to join in the first place?" Mr. Berry: "Oh, yes; we have authority to join." Reeve Minnie Noakes, Hen- sall: "My municipality drop- ped out of it, but I feel, es- pecially with the plowing match coming up and Huron being in the limelight:, we should be looking for economic develop- ment in the county as a whole, not only municipalities." Reeve John Corbett, Hay: "Two members were not pres- ent. ,It was a pretty slim vote." A member: "So was the County Home vote." Reeve Stirling: "I did not vote for it, but I think we should go along with it now." Check EMO Setup The committee reported that it_ was "concerned -_with the. monies being spent on the Em- ergency Measures program, not only' in our county, but through- out -the province." It recom- mended establishment of a com- mittee to study the feasibility of the program as it affects Huron and to report at next session. The committee would consist of the warden, chair- man of the EMO Committee and chairman of the Warden's and Personnel Committee. "There was quite a little dis- cussion that we are not get- ting value for our money," said Deputy Reeve James Hayter, of Stephen, chairman. "It is no fault of Mr. Forbes, who is do- ing a good job, but whether or not EMO is of any value to this county we are asking a com- mittee to study." Adopting the report, council increased the salary of Dr. R. M. Aldis, MOH, to $12,500, plus $1,000 car allowance, and. that of the Deputy Clerk -Treasurer B.. G. Hanly, from $6,300, plus $300 car allowance, ' to $6,500, plus $600 car allowance. The warden is to get $800. Clerical categories are •eliminated and one category' • established with salary range of $2,400 to $4,400. Session pay. for councillors wilLbe $20 a day, plus mileage, instead of $18, and committee pay also $20, plus mileage, in- stead of $15, both effective April 1, 1966. Council decided' against mak- ing any changes in the method of electing the warden. Reeve Duff- Thompson, Clinton, had given notice last session of a motion for secret balloting,, "to remove the tendency toward patronage ' creeping into the election." One change, however, will see the outgoing warden presiding at the beginning of the inau- gural meetings in January. "The warden is elected to of- fice until his successor is ap- pointed," Clerk Berry pointed out. Increase Salaries • Salary of the county librarian was increased from a maximum of ,$3,500 to $4,000. The acting librarian, Mrs. J. Pirie, has re- signed, and Reeve Duff Thomp- son, of Clinton, chairman of -the committee, said the intention is to advertise, firstly, for a fully qualified librarian and, second ly, for a person with qualifica- tions sufficient to be consider= ed as acting county librarian. The matter of -a county. public library system is to be discuss- ed, he said, at an open meeting later in the year. Adopting the property com- mittee report, council appoint- ed Mrs. Friedel Nanz, assistant curator at the Museum, at i¢2,- 600.
