('Continued from Page 1) • Finance Report • Councillor Hudson, Chairman of the (Finance Comm ttt>e<el " lintroduted his report which was adopted after didcussion. Accounts, salaries, etc. to the amount of $3,099.31 ,were pass - tad. Mayor Sutherland's report, as re- lief officer, indicated that 21 families rannd 67 dependents, .were fan relief during the ,past month.' Total relief amlounted to $410.83, made up as fol- lows; Flood, $257.14; fuel, $105.07; shoes- and clothing,. $20.12; household -remedies', $3.40; medical levy, $22.00; vegetable seeds, $3.10. Of this amount the net cost to the town is $136.94. The monthly discussion as to what onstituted an indigent took place as Reeve Crosier advised' Council that he had agreed to the admission of <cer*t'ain persons to Scott Memorial IHbspital in 'Sieafortfa. • A communication with respect to paying rental ,for those on relief far- ed badly and council decided' definite- ly this.w'ould.not be done. Elxoepti'on was taken to the fact that persons on relief were driving cars. Other persons on relief refus- ed to work out the amount required. After considering the continuation of relief, council d'eterm'ined to cut it toff after May 15,, except in cases of dire necessity, and- a motion -by Coun- ' cillors R. W. Eberhart and . T. H. ;Johnstone to this effect was adopt- ed. Pay Two -Thirds Labor ' Mayor 'Sutherland reported to council the results 'of the interview -which he and Reeve Crosier had' had -with Hon.' D. A. Croll, Minister of Welfare, relative to laying Seaforth pavements as a relief measure. The Minister advised the committee it would contribute two-thirds of the labor costs but northing for materials. 'Council discussed the matter and the opinion expressed was that under these terms paving would not be feas- ible. A request for a grant from the Salvation Army was received 'kindly and the usual grant, of $35.00 was given, but -a. -suggestion that the town make a contribution to the Cancer Fund did not fare so- well and -no ac- tion was taken. Communications 'Oom'munticatione read included a letter from the mutual Company carrying the insurance on the mill, advising council of a rebate of $22.50. A cheque was attached. The Super - test Co. requested permission to er- ect three 'overhead signs and this was referred to the Street 'Committee. A letter from A. T. Cooper of the Mothers' Allowance Board to Reeve Crosier, was read, advising that an appointment should be made to fill the vacancy caused by the death of Col. R. S. Hays. The matter comes up at the June session of county council and the Reeve will attend to it. Street Committee Reeve 'Cro'sier reported for the Street 'Committee and stated certain repairs were required 'to sidewalks. Councillor Purcell, a member of the committee, read a list of ` streets whish needed fixing -as discovered on a recent inspection trip which he and the Reeve had undertaken.

'"'We have got to dip something for the ratepayers, 'either oil or some- thing,"' said the 'Reeve. "There are a lot of complaints. Council then decided to adjourn the setting of the tax rate one week in order that petitions for !oiling might -be presented. Campbell Fountain Again A year and a half has passed since oouhcil accepted the gift 'of a water- ing fountain for animals; as' provid- ed by the will of the late Anna. Camp- bell, but the fountain still lies at the rear of the town hall. Councillor Hudson .brought the matter to the attention of Council and asked- what was to ,he done. .Mayor Sutherland suggested citi- z(ns be 'asked 'to call at the Clerk's office and say where they wish it placed. The Property Committee will once more try .to find a suitable location. -Councillor. Eberhart of the committee also reported the ground. between the Regent Theatre and Town Hall had been levelled and Seeded ands the base of the monument in Victoria Park, had also 'been reseeded. Enquiries For.. Mill The !Mayor read' correspondence he had had with parties interested in the W4olvertiort Mill. Councillor John- stone enquired where a number of belts from the mill were.. but: nobody seemed to know.Constable Ryan and the property committee were in- structed to investigate the Mystery of the !Missing Belts. Machinery, including the main ,drive belt, valued alt $500,, has been removed flans the C.F.M. factory th'e Mayor stated. Mr. Nelson,. o the company, had been in town this week but would' not state what the company's intentions were, he said. "The lawyers are exhausted. The town apparently doesn't want to do anything," the Mayor said 'Mr, Neel- slon'had told 'hlim, Councillor Murray suggested the Clerk inquire the -lowest price the company will take for the factory as it stands and 'a motion- to this effect was passed. The property committee is to in- vestigate the weigh scales 'at the C. N. R. freight yards. The town .pays for the upkeep of the scales but the C.N.R. will not weigh cattle o -n them unless the cattle are being shipped •by rail. James Cameron advised cow -veil in a letter that he had not been permitted to weigh his cattle and as a result had to drive them to Kippen with consequent loss of :time and money. H.LG. Meir To Library Board • Mr. H. G. Meir was appointed to the Pu'bl'ic Library Board 'to fill the unexpired term 'of Mr. A, F. Cluff, who had resigned. Bylaw 365 con- firming this was read the necessary number Of times 'and passed, :A letter ,of appreciation will be sent 'Mr. Cluff as a result of a, m•o- tion by 'Councillors Eberhart and Johnstone: "That a letter 'be sent to Mr. A. F. Cluff in appreciation' of his many years of faithful services as our representative 'on the Public Library 'Board, since its inaugura- tion." As the meeting was drawing to a close Mayor Sutherland laid a paper on the table and told the councillors any one of them Could sign it if they wished. Asked what it was, he replied it was a notice of motion to rescind' By- law' 362, being 'the bylaw 'by which council had -granted themselves salar- ies earlier in the year. . The c'oun'cillors did not view his suggestion very kindly and Council- lor 'Murray asked, "'What do you want to do that for?" "Wasn't it passed'? Why do you want to rescind it?" asked Qouncillbr Eberhart. The Mayor replied that the salaries woo -id exceed the net cost of relief in 1934 and he had thought someone might wish to rescind the bylaw. "It is just an opportunity to- repeal it," he said. "It will add one-half mill to the rate." Councillor Hudson, rather diffident- ly and with some hesitation, picked up the notice and sigtfied it.
