Sixty-two employees at Bendix
Home. Systems Ltd. in Heusall
'were laid off Wednesday. The
employees worked in the mobile
home plant.
Company spokesman Ale.;
MacDonald said he had'no idea at
the present time how long the
layoff would be in effect, but
emphasized it was temporary and '
hoped the workers would be
recalled '"xery soon".
He explained that the plant has
been affected by extremely tough
market conditionS for the past two
years. Several workers were laid
off in June of this year, most were
later recalled. yr. MacDonald
said the firm was exploring new
markets to regain production
levels.
The 62 employees represent
almost half the 135 workers at the
mobile home plant. No layoffs
were instituted in the recreational
vehicle plant.
Plant shutdowns and layoffs
have been hitting Huron County
harder than they have for several
years, according to county

organization of a microfilming
project of County records.
The committee had discussed
the advisability of microfilming or
otherwise retaining the various
documents and materials as
indexed by the students who had
completed the History Project in
1975. Some of that material is
already on microfilm, but, the
committee noted, it would seem
that unless a minimum of two
other organizations or institutions
are interested in securing copies,
the cost would be prohibitive.
The Committee had authorized
• the Clerk to arrange a 'meeting
with Cathy. McKinley, Project
Co-ordinator in 1975, and the
County Librarian to determine
exactly what records or
documents should.be microfilmed
or otherwise retained to ensure
availability. When this has been
determined, the Unviersity of
Western Ontario, the Huron
County Board of Education, the
Huron County Historical Society,
as well as any other agencies who
might have an interest in the
history of Huron County are to be
contacted to determine what
records they may have or may
wish to have in their safekeeping.
