Grant Schedule The whole setup of grants to agricultural and organizations will be reviewed by the finance committee of Huron county council, with a view to recom-' mending changes at a subse- quent session. This proposal in the report, presented by Mrs. May Mooney, deputy reeve of Goderich, along with a request for authority to study the "ad- visability of a county fair in preference to all the small fairs," started a lively discus sion at Thursday afternoon's sitting. Grants to various organiza- tions which have been receiv- ing them for a number of years include 30 fair boards, breed organizations and others in the agricultural category; five edu- cational, a half dozen that might be termed municipal, and others of varied character. Mrs. Mooney explained that a larger grant had been requested by Goderich and, District Associa- tion for Retarded Children, and the'committee had upped it by $50 to $200, the same for Wing - ham assocation, (The legislation committee had before jt a resolution from Bruce proposing that the depart- ment of education "assist in fin- ancing schools for retarded children on the ,same basis as the public schools." The com- mittee concurred, changing the wording to "extend greater as- sistance." Chairman William Ball said: "We did not know what aid the schools were get- ting." Clerk Berry reported $30 a month per pupil attending half days, $55 for those attending all day.) • • Monied Groups Reeve Frank Waikom. God- erich. nota member of the fin- ance committee, started the ball rolling in regard to grants to breeders. the time the year is over we will have a solution for next year " Mrs. Mooney: "My committee members feel they would like surae guidance regarding Wat erloo bursaries. These are given to needy students provided they reach second-class honors on examination." Reeve Webb then moved that the finance committee consider the request for bursaries from the University of Waterloo, and seconded by Reeve Ball, this carried. Council reverted to a discus- sions of grants to fairs and a county fair. Reeve Leiper: "There are 12 fairs in the county, with 25 to 30 members each; about 300 in- terested people. About 307, of their outlay has to be financed through donations. The depart- ment encourages these fairs to keep going if possible." Deputy Reeve Gibsoh,,How- ick: "I do not think it wbuld be the best thing to do away with the small fairs in favor of a county fair. It is very much op- posed at Toronto." Adopting the report of its fi- nance committee, council ap- proved $96,000 for Seaforth Hospital "upon commencement of construction and availability of finance." This is from the reserve fund, where another $50,000 has been assigned in the budget to the next county hospital giving a year's notice. Other grants: Seaforth Agri- cultural Society, $513.80; Huron County Plowmen's Association, $100; Huron County Holstein Club, $100; Soil and Crop Im- provement Association, $400; Agricultural Junior Extension, $2,500; Huron Central Agricul- tural Society (Clinton), $209.72; Kirkton Agricultural Society, $100;. McKillop School Fair, $25: County Libraries, $1,345. "These are monied groups," he said, "and I see no reason why grants of $50 (o $100 should Set Details For be given to• them any more than' to turkey breeders or broiler /� breeders or any of these. We Annual Appeal know it has been going on for A p years., but we should break , ' away from it some time." Warden Forbes: "I' have felt For Cancer nit along these lines myself, but talking to Doug Miles he says most of the money the breed- ers' associations get is for pro- motional work, and he figured it is for the benefit of a;zzi- culture." Reeve Waikom: 'Most of them are able to support them• selves by dues or fees." Reeve Glenn Webb, Stephen: "We cut off -all these grants the year I came in—Mr. Adair was chairman—and you never heard such a furor. I queston, myself, the advisability of the whole system. and would tike to hear it explained by somebody who knows more about these par- ticular associations than I do." Warden Forbes: "We might have Mr. Miles here some time. Personally, I do. not see,–why they cannot carry on without grants from the county." Reeve Elgin Thompson, Tuck- ersmith: "I support what Mr. Waikom has said.'If your farm • does not support you, you can- HurQn Coun County council at its March session adopted a salary sche- dule recommended by the war- den's anti personnel committee, of which Reeve Alvin D. Smith, of Turnberry, is chairman. Classifications., with minimum and maximum rates, are as fol- lows: Jail governor, $4,200 - $5,-000, The annual campaign of the Canadian Cancer Society's Hur- on Unit :Will open soon. The unit's objective this year is $16,000, and will contribute to- wards a provincial objective of $1,80,0,000, and a total national aim "of $3,682,000. "It is difficult to make the point, year after year, that the need is great, that there is an urgency in this. appeal to . raise the money to defeat cancer," J. R.^ Spittal, Seaforth campaign chairman, said in announcing the campaign. "But such is the case. One need only- visit' a hospital and talk to patients with cancer, or to their .loved ones, to realize that cancer is a terrible disease and that its cost in terms of lives and un- happiness can scarcely be im- agined. "The Canadian Cancer So- ciety is doing all it can fo bring about the final defeat of this human scourge. It is fighting cancer by means of research, not go to the government for which will one day solve the a grant." riddle of cancer and show us Reeve Tom Leiper,-Hullett: how to prevent it or cure it. It "They are trying to carry on for is fighting cancer by means of education, impressing upon all of us the importance of regular health check-ups and early treatment once cancer is diag- nosed. And the society is fight- ing cancer by means of welfare services which ,give the patient aid and comfort. "But to do all these things, the Canadian- Cancer Society needs money, I sincerely hope that this community will once again do its part in this vital cause and see that our objective is attained. The cause is great and the need is great—let's all make our contribution great." Mr. Spittal pointed out that this year fully 86 per cent of all funds raised by the Nation- al Cancer Institute of Canada for its research projects will be provided from the campaign of the ' Canadian Cancer Society, almost half of whose budget is ear -marked for research pur- poses. "The more we can make available for research," he said, "the more research projects can be undertaken — and every one of them helps to fill a gap in the enormous cancer jig- saw puzzle."

Ball; honor- ary president, Mayor Earl Dins- more; past president, John W. Talbot; first vice • president, Clare Reith; second vice-presi- dent, Mrs. Joseph M.

As for a county fair, it might be better, but at the Fairs Association convention it is always argued that the little fairs - keep the big one going. I would like to see the little fairs get a bigger percentage• of Dominos and provincial grants." Consider Waterloo Aid Reeve Ball noted that the committee recommended no ac- tion on a request from Waterloo University for a grant for bur- saries. "We gave Western $2,500, plus $200 for bursaries," he said. Mrs. Mooney said the propor- ton of Huron students at Wat- erloo is about 25%—around 20 persons, It seems a little unfair," said Mr. Ball. Warden Forbes: "Quite a few go to Toronto, Hamilton and Kingston, too. I 'ihelieve that through the years we have given as much to Western .'is other counties except Middlesex, I be- lieve we are gving $5,000 a year. Mr. Ball: "We have probably the second largest number at Waterloo, and we should per- haps increase it a bit." Mrs. Mooney: "Dr. Hall of Western spoke to council in January, and I think they will he disappointed." Reeve Webb: "I support Mr. Hail. Waterloo has a large build- ing program, and we have ap- proximately 25'% of the stu- dents, and bound to increase." Clerk Berry; "'In their letter they just asked for funds for bursaries, but they may be get- ting into a building "program." Reeve Ernest Talbot, Stanley: "The committee would be glad - to be guided by caut dil in this matter, and certainly is open to any suggestions." Mr. Berry: "The committee will review the grants.
