There was no recorded op- position to the authorization, but it was learned that the mo- tion passed 4-1 in council. It was moved by Councillors. Roy Westcott and Archie Ethering- ton, the two who supported the debenture issue • last year that was turned down. Reeve George Frayne, who did not back the school issue last year, said he changed his position this year because the school board's request was un- animous. "I consider the board is re- sponsible for school affairs and For Complete INSURANCE on your HOME, BUSINESS, FARM, CAR, ACCIDENT, LIABILITY OR LIFE SEE JOHN A. CARDNO Insurance Agency Phone 214 Seaforth Office Directly Opposite Seaforth Motors if it is unanimous, then coun- cil should accept its decision." He pointed out the board was not unanimous last year and that the two trustees opposed to the school, who were elected in November, had changed their minds., The reeve said four out of five councillors supported the debenture issue but did not dis- close who voted against since no recorded vote was taken. "I asked if they wanted a re- corded vote but no one re- quested it." Ken Duncan, freshman coun- cillor, who opposed the central school in the election ` in No- vember, was not available for comment Wednesday. Last year, after council turn- ed down the board's request, a vote was held in the township and the school was turned down by a count of 162-128. The school area board asked for "tentative approval for an expenditure of $160,000 to cov- er the cost of building a central school containing seven class- rooms and a playroom." The board hopes, however, that the council approval will prompt action in having the Us - borne sections of Kirkton, and Woodham union schools brought into the area. Blan- shard council last year refused. to approve the move until Us - borne was ready to proceed with a central school'. Ken Simpson, school board chairman, led the delegation to the council meeting. AlI trus- tees but one were with him. Appeal Claim Council learned that R. D. Etherington had appealed to the Ontario Livestock Commis- sioner on his sheep loss claim, and that T. K. Henderson, of Guelph, had investigated the case as provincial valuer. No report had been received yet. Council approved a grant of $25 to South Huron Agricultur- al Society, plus $4.00 for each 'of the 22 members participat- ing in the feeder calf club pro- ject. Accounts included the Aus- able Authority levy of $1,502; Upper Thames levy, of $49, and the SHDHS debenture payment of $2,660.75. The Wright municipal drain report, filed by Engineer J. A. Howes, Listowel; will be read to interested ratepayers at the next regular meeting, May 7.

William Stewart, to discuss the matter, of com- pensation for farm losses suf- fered as a result of careless hunting actions. This discus- sion stemmed from consider- able public concern over the number of such cases in recent months. This was expressed in a resolution carried at the No- vember 1962 annual meeting of the OFA, which asked that the rates for hunting licences be increased in order that a fund might be set up to compensate farmers for losses The discussions with the min- ister were most encouraging, and representatives of the two organizations expressed simi- lar thoughts and concern. It was pointed out that not only are careless hunters responsible for livestock losses, they also commit considerable mayhem with regard to farm buildings, mail boxes, fences, gates, farm implements, livestock oilers and feeders. The delegates made clear their fear that unless ac- tion is taken soon, it is only a matter of time until farm peo- ple themselves will be injured or killed. The minister gave very sym- pathetic consideration to the presentations, and there is ev- ery indication that there will be some protection introduced by legislation. The Province of Saskatchewan already has leg- islation in this respect. The presentation suggested that each hunter have a large red patch on the back of his jacket on which is displayed his lic- ence number, so 'that he may be easily identified. .They asked that the onus of proof of post- ing be removed' from the farm- er and that hunters be requir- ed to carry permission of the Iand owner. They asked that a fund be set up from which pro- perty owners would be able to secure compensation for the loss of animals or property. This fund would be supported, at least partially, by an in crease in licence fees. It is of interest to note that thirty cattle and a number of smaller animals and birds were paid for in Saskatchewan last year. The delegation made it very clear that they did noVwant unrealistic compensation. The co-operation of the two farm organizations on this sub- mission is encouraging. Al- though they hold different 'views regarding membership and financing there is no ques tion but that the primary con- cern of both organizations is the well being of all rural resi- dents Never was there so great a need for united action on the CANADA COMPLIMENTED The Canadian side of Niagara Falls, "much less, commercializ- ed than the American, is the scene of an even more ambi- tious parks project."

Southgate Seaforth Representing: British Mortgage & Trust ,_• part of farm organizations and farm people generally. The two groups should, and sometimes do, compliment each other. The Farmers' Union in the neighboring County of Huron can be congratulated on two pieces of program which made news recently. In the first in- stance, they had the courage to state publicly that they were in full support of producer con- trolled collective marketing ev- en though ,it meant the loss of one of its ' members in an ex- ecutive capacity. The Farmers' Union also plan each election year to have all political party delegates on a public platform at the same time, and ask them to state the agricultural policy of their respective par- ties. This, plus the opportunity for questioning, gives rural res- idents some knowledge of the policies advocated by the differ- ent political parties. There were only two candi- dates in Huron, and by the time this appears in print, •the elec- tion will be over, It is no fault of the Farmers' Union that these candidates were on such friendly terms that neither of them would discuss freely what should be done by governments fbr agriculture. The effective- ness and value of this type of program was almost entirely nullified by the too considerate' attitude of the candidates.. Two bills were, introduced to the Ontario Legislature which Will be of interest. Bill 105 pro- vides for the establishment of a Food Council. There will be more detail on this later, Bill 106 is an Act to amend the Farm Products Marketing Act and grants, to tobacco growers only, the right to compel grow- ers ,to control acreages.
