Council Studies Request for
Liquor Lounge Vote Here
.Seaforth town council at its
monthly meeting on Monday even•
ing decided to hold over a requeet
from the •Ohamber at Commerce
fora.vote on liquor .lounges, and
suggested the proposal should be'.
accompanied by a petition,
' Also councillors learned that
the town had a "carryover" of
$48,000 from last year with the
town: bankers which would affect
the amount that could be borrow-
ed this year:
All members .were present, May-
or B. F. Christie presided,
Councillor Brady asked that all
estimates • by the committees
should be prepared at once so
the budget could be made up,
Councillor ICardno said Mr.
Ford of the Bank of Oommeree
explained to him the conditions
forthe town borrowing w ng dram the
bank. 'Phe town was not to bor-
row more than 70%' of the
amount collected in taxes during.
the year. With the town making
two tax collections in the year it
could easily occur that the town
would borrow more than was col-
lected Ln taxes. That was why the
total or "aggregate" amount of
the borrowings should be closely
watched by both the bank .and
•
the town.
Councillor •Cardno said Mr,
Ford recommended that every ef-
fort should be made to colleot the
$40,000 in outstanding taxes to
reduce the carry-over of ,$48.000
owing the bank.
It- was .explained that some of
the carry-over was dor work done
on the town hall.
Councillor Daly said the prop-
erty committee had received corn
=plaints about the misuse of the
town hall. A lock had been put on
the front door and it would be
locked every evening at 6 o'clock
and all day Sunday.
Those who had business in the
town hall should arrange before
hand to have the doors open or a
key could be obtained from the
police, Councillor Daly said. He
said the washrooms at the town
hall were for •customers and it
was only fair to lock It up atter
six p,m.
Councillor Daly said property
committee budget during the past
10 years had averaged $5000, suf-
ficient for this year.
Council will offer the town
scales to the coal dealers on - a
yearly rental basis, the drivers to
do their own weighing. Councillor
Daly said the subject was a "hot
Potato", and had found the deal-
ers rather unhappy about the
problem.
Councillors had criticism for
the work being done at the form-
er theatre building. The cantract-
or claimed no permit was neces•
sary as work was an "inside" job,
It was estimated the work cost
• over $15,000.
Councillor Rivers said street
committee hadn't cost of clearing
Main St. with a blower, but it
was less. Mayor Christie said he
got numerous calls about the plow
tilling in driveways. The police
had found a lot of cars parked
overnight on road.
Councillor Cardno said the fire
and water committee would have
a budget of $2500. They needed
hose and chemicals. The cost of
the rural truck would be extra.
•Councillors said they had an in-
quiry for the old shoe factory, but
nothing definite.
Mayor Christie read the police
report. The budget was 413,500
for the year, quite • an increase.
Councillor Flannery said there
was a request for a water tap at
the recreation grounds, also blea-
chers.
Building permits: Walter Mur-
ray, Franklin St„ $7,000.00; G. A.
Whitney, display, $700 to $800.001.
Smith's Grocery. food :front, $1900.
Council appointed Mayor Chris-
tie as town representative on the
Mid Western Development Associ-
ation.
T.he Chamber of :Commerce had
two suggestions for council for
liquor licenses:
1. Vote on dining lounge.
2. Vote on lounge.
Councillors said it would be
necessary to have 60% •mojority
to •carry. A petition should ac-
company the request. The cham-
ber was looking at it from a ,busi-
ness point of view. Council decid-
ed to leave the queetion over to
next .meeting.
Council made a grant of $100
to the chamber of commerce .
Councillor Flannery told council
of his meeting with liquor control
board officials in Toronto on Mon-
day. He had been sympathetically
received by the chairman. There,
had been discussion of a combined
warehouse and store. About 3000
sq. ft. would be needed for stor-
age. An outlet would not be placed
tooclose to the churches, he said.
Councillor Turnbull said there
were no new developments about,
the sewer.
A letter from the community
centre could be expected, Council-
lor •Cardno said, asking council
for $2000• Insurance was $1400
and the rest for repairs, Council-
lor •Rivers said steel stairs and
fire escapes were needed. There
should he an engineer With papers

1959 Losses Up
In the annual report to the pol-
icyholders of the MoKiliop Mutu-
al Vire Insurance Company, Pres-
ident Robert Archibald says in
part:
"Cur losses this past year
jumped •from $43,000 to $60,000;
of this increase the direct losses
were up $11,000 and the re-insur,
ance losses were up $6,000, Gen-
erally speaking premiums are re-
gulated by the extent of the loss-
es incurred. Despite the Piet that
Insurance rates generally are be-
ing increased throughout the na-
tion it is the earnest hope of your
directors that through mutual co-
operation a sincere effort may be
put 'forth to keep the trend of in,
smarm() losses low.
"One of the rnajor changes that
the Company underwent was the
ap loin rnent of a no secreta -
pl t w ry
treasurer in the person of W. B.
•Southgate and the transfer of the
headCompanyof the fficeis
o to h
office on Main street, Seaforth.
The change has been made with
a very minimum of contusion.
"Tire new application and pol-
icy forms have worked out very
well and new forms for town
dwellings, cottages, churches and
schools are in the offing. The new
re -insurance plan, which was ad-
opted a year ago, and which the
majority of farm mutuals are us-
ing, saves a lot of work and elim-
inates the possibility of .error in
reinsuring.
During the year •our 'Company
suffered a severe loss in the pass-
ing of Mr. E, 1. Trewartha, a di-
rector of this Oompany for many
years. Ile played an important
part in the advancement of our
Company."
