Clinton News-Record, 1966-02-03, Page 74 AT HURON COUNTY COUNCIL 4 Should Use EMO More I (By W. Elliott) GODERICH — “Much wider use" of (fie Emergency M&asu ures Organization was urged by co-ordinator, W, Stuart Forbes, - in reporting the county council tit its January session. “Sinpe you pay 100% of toe emergency program cost, re gardless of the grants that come back, I feel we should sat isfy toe people of this county first," he said, “Growth has continued, in most areas, despite apathy,” he reported. “We have two excer- cises, with more in attendance. Huron is unable, as in large cities, to obtain key personnel readily, and some must take more responsibility. “The training program has been quite difficult. Most per sonnel havet shown little en thusiasm for’ courses. • Private enterprises have their own courses, and when skilled labor is scarce we 'are left far behind. • “Despite thiis, auxiliary police are completely organized, uni formed, and have been work ing throughout the county more than a year. Town coun cils and police are most co-op erative. There seems to be no Set rule for the number of con stables required in a munici pality, so it is desirable to have auxiliaries available. “The same program could! be accomplished with auxiliary firemen, but a chief is needed somewhere who could be ap- ‘ i ____________ pointed by order'-on-council. Government grants axe avail able tor fine apparatus and rommunication system to the extent of 45% up to certain limits. AR towns and villages are eligible and I hope Gode rich will provide the necessary impetus to the fire problem.” Mr. Forbes announced a con ference in Toronto, March ,29- 30, first in six and a half years, to be attended by co-ordinators, counity clerk-treasurer and EMO chairmen. ‘We hope for a good; overhaul, to update the program," he said, A request tor a grant for the Ontario Red Cross was present ed1 by Lt.-Col. J. W. Routledge and Col. W. E, Bawden, Lon don. Colonel Baiwden saiid that one bottle of blood1, costing $3.02, was required by each 20 persons. Huron county required 2,500 annually. “We are the only people in the world who have a complet ely free blood and1 blood pro duct service for,all our people," he said. “Our disaster service responds to any form, of large- scale disaster, and to minor ones, and to persons suffering therefrom." Waterloo University’s request tor a grant was presented by President J. G. Hagey and John Hemphill, who reported 12 stu dents assisted by $100 bursaries provided by Huron council. Seventy-tour students from Huron are enrolled, Dr. Hagey said. Total enrolment at Water lop js 4,400. Buildings costing $25,000,000 are now on the cam pus, with buildings worth $12, - 000,000 under construetion and $16,000,000 more on toe draw ing board. A mathematics and computer building, when com pleted will ,be six storeys high, The increase hi federal aid to universities, from $2 to $5 per capita, ’‘will certainly ast sist, blit is far short of what is needed,” Dr. Hagey said, The county last year paid $2,100 -to Western, $1,200 to Waterloo and $200 for bursaries to Waterloo Lutheran. “I think we shoiuld try to raise these grants — think a- bout it, anyway,” sialid Reeve Clarence Boyle, Exeter. “All three deserve a lot greater fi nancial consideration from toe county. It may be unfortunate, but I think it has to be done.” The January session conclud ed with brief remarks' from all six new members, and council heard for a first time from Reeve Minnie Noakes, of Hen sail. “I thank you all for courtesies extended me," said. “It has been a most terestiing and educational perience thus far, I have been reasonably quiet until I acquire more knowledge -and know What I am talking about when I do. It is better to keep your mouth closed when doubtful than to open it and remove all doubt.” County Seeking Industry (By W. E. Elliott) GODERICH — Huron county council has appointed a commit tee to help attract secondary industries to toe county and provide more employment for young people on whose educa tion the county and local mun icipalities spend so much money. Warden Kenneth Stewart, who mentioned the matter in his inaugural speech, later re quested toe members to discuss it. In preference to a special .committee, Reeve Clifford Dun bar of Grey proposed reference to toe warden’s and personnel standing committee, and this was agreed. Deputy Reeve El mer Hayter of Stanley, is the 1966 chairman. ' “I understand,” said the war den, “there are 1,800 subsidiary buildings within a 100-mile rad ius of the new Talbotville plant. Huron may be best adapted for small industries. Some build ings used in toe past for in- CHILD PORTRAITS JERVIS STUDIO Phone 482-7006 dustries could be adapted." Reeve. Leiper: “How about manpower? Even garages, and other places we rely on for service, cannot get enough skill ed labor.” Warden1 Stewart: “In Sea forth they have 85 persons driving out to seek work. Wouldn’t it be better to have employment in the area?" Reeve 'Procter: “We need to some long-range planning, and should have plannig and zoning probably on1 the provincial level. This is the prime agricultural county in toe province, and agri cultural land 5s being taken up too often by industry. We should have some definite plans, that do not lose us good agri cultural land. “The pioneers burned trees, and we are spending thousands of dollars now to reforest land that should not have been log ged. We should learn from this experience to take care of our good agricultural land today. “As the warden says, we could use small industries in Huron, to take up some of the young people moving away. ,We also need agriculture men. Al though prepared1 to meet wages' paid! in local factories we can not hire a man. Food surpluses are dwindling, and it looks to .—■■i—■■ ,.i. ■■■■—............. ........ WESTINGHOUSE AUTOMATIC 30" RANGE MODEL KFF3D me the day of cheap food' is over. I think we have to pre pare for future food require ments.” Reeve Ernest Talbot, Stanley, pledged the help of toe agri culture committee. Reeve Boyle, Exeter, staid there were empty spaces in Ex eter, Clinton and other towns that should be filled “and have tax dollars coming in." This would not absorb land. “I would like to ville (Ford plant) our area," he said, "but we can use auxiliary 'industries." Reeve Calvin Krauter: “As regards manpower, I believe if you put toe honey there you will attract the bees.” Reeve Elgin Thompson: “There may be a subsidiary to Talbotville in the neighborhood of Seaforth, and it is’ a ’good thing to try to do sometoing along that line." Reeve Gibson, Hdwick: “I think in Huron we need a trades school, where pupils could go from high school, and we would have toe manpower for industry." Deputy Reeve Geiger: “If council intends to set up a com mittee, would the local munici palities not be better to hold off? In lake lots along the 'highways' we 'are getting into trouble as regards zoning.” Reeve Dalton, Seaforth: “We are making a survey of land available for industry, so it can be available at short notice." Among 21 bylaws given, third reading at toe final session was one authorizing toe war den and clerk to enter, into the general contract for construc tion on toe Huronview addition, subject to approval of toe pro gram by toe public welfare de partment and the Ontario Mun icipal Board. more farm see Talbot- move into Successful At Curliug Bonspiel Open Every Afternoon Local Representative A.

Reeve Carl Dalton, Seaforth, moved that toe bounty be dis continued' for 1966, effective February 1. A recorded vote found only Reeve Borden Cook, Blyth voting with toe two Sea forth members. Thirty-five an swered the roll call with “No”. Reeve Procter, Morris, said: "Rabid foxes should be destroy ed, and I don’t'toink we should discontinue the bounty. Pelts in toe summer are of no value, ing to take a fox in summer, when, he can get it in the fall and collect $17." Reeve McKenzie, Ashfield: “We get as 'many in the sum mer as anytime, but we are not interested in the pelts.” Clerk-treasurer Berry plained' 'that the bounty is $4, which is recovered from the province. The total paid might be $1,500 or $2,000 in a year. Deputy Reeve Everett McIl wain, Goderich township, rais ed the point as to what the practice is in other counties' — tails or ears, but it was ruled that the idea was only to en sure uniformity in Huron. The recent open season for d'eer suited Ellwood Epps, Clin ton, who wrote saying he sold $1,000 worth of licenses. W. G. "Bill” CAMPBELL P.O. Box 659 SEAFORTH, ONT.

Parts of the Public School Act cited in support of its Sea forth and Bayfield decisions were Section 40 (9) and (5), as follows: “Every urban municipality that had a population of under 1,000 according to toe munici pal census for 1963 and every urban municipality that had an average daily attendance in toe public schools in the municipal ity of under 100 resident pupils in 1963 shall, on1 and after the 1st day of January, 1965, form part of toe township school area that surrounds it or with which it 'has the greatest length of common boundary.” “Where the average daily at tendance of pupils of the public schools under toe jurisdiction of a boundary is fewer than 100 in any year, the inspector shall notify the clerk of the county and toe secretary of the board affected, and the council of the county shall, by bylaw passed before the first day of July fol lowing notice from the inspec tor, attach the school section in which the board has jurisdiction to an adjoining school section.” “It appears,” toe committee added, “that there is no pro-' vision by which a township may have two school boards for ele mentary school purposes. “Since every urban centre with population of less than 1,000 must be joined to the ad joining township, there is ho provision for establishing a school authority of the Village of Bayfield."
