In a reclio'addresa,this week the
extent to which federal social wel-
fare legislation contributes to citi-
zens in the riding of Huron was in-
dicated by •Andrew Y. McLean,
Liberal candidate in Huron.
Each year payments in Huron
total nearly two and a half billion
dollars.
Mr. McLean spoke as follows:
"I want to;i7; speak to you for a
iew moments about the extent to,
which Liberal policies have bene-
fitted the people of Huron riding.
You know, of course, that the Lib-
eral party stands for the impor-
tance and dignity of the individual
and the family, and it is natural,
therefore, that Liberal policies, in
a particular sense, have benefit-
ted so many individuals in Huron
riding.
"Coupled with this. concerii for
the individual, regardless of his
g.ttation in life, is the encourage-
ment of individual effort and.per-
sonal initiative consistent with the
interests of all the people. This
latter concept of good government
has resulted in an unprecedented
progress 'in the development of
Canadian resources. It has re-
sulted, too, in the 'creation of a
buoyant economy in which every
Canadian, including the people of
Huron, have shared by virtue of
the greatly increased standard of
living they enjoy.
"But to get back to the direct
benefits which are. enjoyed by the
people of Huron, be they residents
a the farms or of the towns and
villages, here are the facts:
"In the five years since old age
.security was introduced by the.
Liberal government, federal pay-
ments to citizens in Huron riding
have totalled $6,373,000. Each year
•approximately $1,275,000 is paid to
Huron citizens, and when the in-
creased pension rates become eV
fective next July, the annual pay-
ments in Huron will be increased
by nearly a quarter of a million
dollars. While the amber in the
riding to whom these payments go
changes from time to time, at the
moment there are approximately
2.700 senior citizens receiving old
age security.
"In addition, Liberal policies
have remitted' in the payment to.
Huron residents Of old age dasist-
nce amounting to more than a
quarter of a million dollars. These,
payments are received by 210 Hur-
Quits Business,
Ontex Closes
on Citizens.
"But perhaps the greatest gen, .
derived by Huron residont,04
result of the action of d'1hIab
governnaent is that winch the fam-
ily allowance program pies,
Introduced in 1945, fatnibi
al�w-
ance payments. to Huron residents
have totalled $10,318,000. Each
yekr more than a million dollars
is paid to 7,300 Huron riding fam-
ilies' and this amount will be in-
creased by more than $100,000 an-
nually when the increased scale of
payments comes into effect. You
will be interested to know that
these federal payments are result-
ing in nearly 16,000 Huron children.
being able to enjoy a better life.
a fuller life, and thus to an in-
creased degree become better
Canadian citizens.
"There is just one other aspect
of the extent to which. Federal so-.
cial security programs have aided
Huron residents that I wish to
mention at this time. That is the
fact that during the period in which
the federal government has been
participating, Huron hospitals have
received capital grants totalling
$154,938.
"It is for these reasons, then,
that I seek your active support in
the forthcoming election. I want to
ensure that Huron riding citizens
continue to enjoy the benefits of
Liberal policy which thinks firstly
of the individual. This Liberal pol-
icy, as I have shown, has the ef-
fect of placing in the hands of in-
dividual Huron, citizens each year
amounts totalling nearly two and
a half million dollars.

Ontario Textiles are not leaving
Seaforth because of a lack of co-
operation on the part of the town.
W. R. Davis stressed Wednesday
that other undisclosed reasons led
to the shutdown of Ontex here. Mr.
Davis is co-owner of the business.
Divisions of the firm in Toronto
have been sold to two other com-
panies.
One of the original reasons for
locating in Seaforth, Mr. Davis
said, was that it is a clean, well -
kept town. He. voiced no com-
plaints regarding the co-operation
of townspeople.
Ontex employed 30 to 40 persons
at peak business periods. Most of
these were Women. Wednesday,
only six women were at work in
the plant, packaging a dwindling
stock of games and other items.
Mr. Davis said at least two firms
are interested in the building, but
refused to disclose their identity.
During recent months Topnotch
Feeds and Seaforth Farmers- Co-
operative have used parts of the
building for storage, while Ball -
Macaulay have had temporary
quarters there since the disastrous
fire that destroyed their plant in
March.
Ontario Textiles purchased the
building from Hesky Flax in 1952.
The building was originally the
Broadfoot & Box Co. furniture
plant, and following that Canada
Furniture Manufacturers had a
plant there until 1930.
Manager Maurice Brown said
that he plans to remain in Sea -
forth for the present but is con-
templating going into business in
Stratford.

Enthusiasm Up,
Tennis Revived
Forming of a Seaforth tennis
club was discussed last Wednesday
by a small but enthusiastic group.
John MacKenzie presided over the
meeting, held in the Town Hall.
An. offer has been made to re-
pair the old courts, provided in-
terest in the game is revived.
Present at the meeting was the
Rev. Bruce Hall, once nominated
for the Davis Cup competitions.
Mr. Hall said he would coach be-
ginners and help players wishing
to improve their game. Many clubs
lack the asset of an expert coach.

formed, consisting of John Mac-
Kenzie, president; P.C. Ed. John-
ston, grounds convener, and Miss
Patricia Wallace, secretary.
After consultation with Mr.

facilities in Seaforth.

EDWARD KENNETH BROWN
Will Boost Local
Pay Phone Rates,
Pay phone charges in Seaforth
and district will be boosted from
five to 10 cents on local calls by
the end of June. The Bell Tele-
phone Company plans the hike in
an effort to standardize local call-
ing from public and semi-public
telephones throughout Ontario and
Quebec.
The 10 cent charge has been in
effect in urban centres since 1951.
Due to equipment shortages at that
time smaller communities were
not changed over and the old five
cent charge has prevailed to the
present.
The company has now filed tar-
iff revisions with the Board of
Transport Commissioners. Ap-
proval of these will clear the way
for the rate boost. Tentative- date
for the changeover is June 29.

ing observed on Monday. May

Plaque Honors -
Miss 1. Grainger
HistorY was made in Clinton
when on Stinday the renovated
north wing of Clinton Public Hos-
pital was dedicated and officially
opened. The construction was esti-
mated at a cost of $50,000, and was
built without cost to Clinton tax-
payers. Funds came from provin-
cial and federal grants, levy from
Huron County Council, and private
donations.
A highlight of the ceremony was
the unveiling of two bronze plaques
in memory of what Huron County
Judge Frank Fingland termed
"two of the brightest personalities
of our community"—the late Dr,
John W. Shaw and the late Miss
Jessie Grainger, both of whom
contributed much to the hospital.
Hospital superintendent Miss A.
B. Sinclair unveiled the Grainger
plaque, while Dr. Shaw's daugh-
ter, Mrs. Madeline Kilty, unveiled
the Shaw plaque. Miss Grainger
served as hospital superintendent
from 1919 to 1946. She was a sis-
ter of Mrs. W. A. Wright, Seaforth.
The waiting room is furnished in
memory of Miss Grainger by pub-
lic response to a request sponsor-
ed by about 55 nurses, who gradu-
ated under her superintendency.

Ram Captures
Three Constables
Constable Ivan Wade, for some
years a member of the Seaforth
O.P.P. detachment, was one of
three constables held captive in a
stable recently.
Their captor was—a ram. An-
gered when the constables entered
his barnyard while investigating a
theft, the animal charged. First
to ba.uncourteously ushered to re-
fugee in the barn was Constable
Wade. Peeping through a crack in
the barn door, he watched as the
ram charged the other two offi-
cers.
Successfully avoiding the ani-
mal's attacks the other puffing
constables joined Wade in the
barn. After standing guard outside
the barn door for 30 minutes, the
ram called it quits and left.
