He pointed out that the small chimney presently on the struc- ture was situated only one foot below the windows on his hotel and the smoke was blowing right into his windows. "I may as well put a french fry stand up on the first floor", he stated, "because it's going to smell like that anyway", Several councillors reported they had not seen the building and decided to have short re- cess so they could view the premises. On their return, Councillor Stewart. Webb said he didn't think they should allow the building to remain on its pres- ent location, Grand Bend council served notice at their regular meeting last Wednesday that they were going to clamp down on per- sons who failed to comply with the municipality's by-law in regard to erecting buildings.

Sturdevant asked Clerk Murray A, Des,Tardins to They appeared content with the plans, but Sturdevant told the two men to get council's permission before planning any future work on their docks, "There would have been bet- ter feeling if you had come to council first before starting this work," he commented. Young asked council if it was possible to get a permanent lease for his docking space, pointing out he didn't like to fix it up because he never knew for sure if he would be able to lease the facilities the follow- ing year, lie was told there would be no permanent lease, but council instructed the clerk to draw up a lease for the area to have the two Men sign. Reeve Sturdevant pointed out this would give council more control over the area and would also let the two men, know where they stood.

The reeve pointed out that the suggestion would have to be put to the people on a bal- lot and Councillor Webb stated lie felt it would carry by a two-to-one majority. "It wouldn't cost anything to find out if they wanted it," Emerson Desjardine pointed out. "It could be put on the ballot in the next election," Council decided to consider the action and decide at a later meeting.

Art Campbell, Reeve Bill Sturde- rant and Councillor Stewart Webb. In a letter to Mrs. Sherman, MacKenzie said the permit would not he issued due to the "dreadful state of disrepair" of the building. He pointed out there were holes in the ceiling and the walls and some of the holes were big enough to crawl .through. :MacKenzie also re- ported that the furniture in the motel situated on the north side of the summer resort was unfit. "The present condition leaves no alternative but to withhold your license," he said. The inspector also pointed out that Mrs. Sherman had been convicted under the Liquor Control Act last sum- mer and that if she wished to get her license back she would have to make considerable re- pairs and. also chose her ellen- Plan tax sale Council has already taken steps to conduct a tax sale of the property.

Ontario this year has been increased by 25 cents a bushel over that pre- vailing for the 1961 crop. The new floor is $1.65 a bushel for Grades 1 and 2 and $1,62 for Grade 3. Under an escalator clause, the minimum price will in- crease by two cents per bushel a month from October through February. Thus, at the end of Febru.ary and through March and April, the price to growers will be 10 cents a bushel above the support level. The Ontario Wheat Produc- ers' Marketing Board. says that the increase in price this year is justified because of a small winter wheat crop, the recent devaluation of the Canadian dollar, an increase in the In- ternational Wheat Agreement price range and improved ex- port prospects. Shouldn't blame wheat "On the day of devaluation, Canadian Wheat prices rose automatically by six cents a bushel, That is the basis of the two-cent increase in the price of a loaf of bread now spread- ing across the nation," The above is an excerpt from a recent aront-page news dis- patch from United Press inter- national dealing with the ins creased living costs resulting from the further 21/2 pet cent devaluation of Canadian cur- rency in May, As on so many previous occa- sions, the increase in the price Town fopics Asa ,T. and Miss Grace Penhale sped the weekend in Windsor with Mr. and Mrs. S.

"As Was promised when the demerit point system was first introduced in May, 1959, we have made a complete study of the system and the results obtained with a view to ha- proving and strengthening the system and making it even more effective," Mr. Rowntree stated. Here are the highlights of the changes, which conic into effect July 1. Nine new offences which will mean loss of points have been added. Points have been increased for la of the present: offences.

"This is leased land and we are disturbed that no permis- sion has been given for the work being done on it", Sturdevant told the two men. Earl Deters pointed out that the dredging being done was cutting into the river hand and was weakening the roadway. "What happens if the road slips into the river?" lie questioned. Leonard Lock PHONE 1LDERTON 20R123 of bread has been attributed to higher wheat costs, when in reality the price of wheat is only a smell factor in estab- lishing the retail price of bread, To justify a two-cent-a-loaf boost in the selling price of bread (on the basis of wheat costs only) the price of wheat would have to increase by about $1.00 a bushel. As long as the press prints items such as the one above, it is unlikely the public will ever fully recognize the true rela- tionship between wheat and bread prices, Perhaps a boost in the price of bread is justi- fied due to the rising level of costs since the last increase, but certainly not because the higher price for wheat result- ing from recent devaluation for this would have added less than one-eighth of a cent a loaf.
