Bawmanville diti not fare badly f romn its counties expenditures, Reeve Stinson add- eti. It receiveti some $16.000 for high schooi purposes ta pay for high schooi students who were resident outsitie of the tawn lim- its. In this connection a very large proportion o! the High School tiebentures was chargeable ta this source. Many. the speak- er atitieti. would like ta cut down on the cast of education, but he cansitiereti it difficuit ta reduce the cost and stili maintain the standard. He regretteti that so many stutients attendeti schoois i outside the counties, where voca- tional training was available. In 1934 the counties paid out some $15.000 for this purpose. Indigent patients In hospitals were becanùng another very seri- ous counties' prablemn anti cost some $21.000 in 1934, only about a quarter of which was pali ta hospitals within the uniteti coun- ties. OIt Age Pensions accounteti for $20,000, anti this only repre- senteti 10e, 0 f that whlch was spent, as the Federal Governmnent pays 75%, the Provincial Glovern- ment 15%, anti the Counties only 10%, whlch is represented as the sum quoteti. A total of 1100 peo- ple in the Unitedi Counties are receiving this pension, of which 65 are in Bowmanville. Mothers' Allowance took $18,- 000 anti will take more under the new system whlch pravities the allowance for mothers with only one chilti. The province pays 50% anti the Counties 50%. Turning to the subi ect of de-! bentures Mr. Stinson referretitoi the period in counties' history, when we went p.aving crazy. Un- i less aur reeves came home with a new piece of paving for their municipality, they were flot con- sideret Io have done their duty. Now we are paying for this 60 miles of pavlng which provides the largest portion of the coun-« ies $700.000 in debentures. About a third of this. however, is for the cost of the Provincial HIgh- way. It must be remembereti, the speaker pointedi out, that a large portion of money now spent in paying these debentures would have been spent in any event in the maintenance of roatis. The Caunties are renclering a definite service ta the municipal- ities, the former warden said. They pay for your sehools, in- digent patients, aid age pensions. mothers' allowance, registry f- fice, House of Refuge, paved on- necting roatis. and other conven- iences that the municipalities have asked for. Turning ta Cobourg's demanti for separation, Reeve Stinson said, this "sPaileti baby" should hear plenty. It has been catered ta for years and has receiveti the cream of ahl that the counties had to spend. The f act that the gaol, counties home. counties offices. andi ather counties centres were locateti in Cobourg has meant a tremendous amount in past, years. They are just like a spoileti child. the speaker added. They don't know what they want. We other municipalities have got to put Our feet down and taik ta them like a father ta a spoiled child. It must be brought back ta them: that they have hati ail the bene- fits f rom the counties. He sug- gested that in future the Coun- ties Council shouid spenti nothinz for supplies for any institution in the Town of Cobourg. Closing with a brief reference ta Counties Councils and their value. Reeve Stinson said the time was flot ripe for their abol- ition. The Attorney Generai re-1 cently pointed out that municipal governments were best conduct- eti. then provincial. and lastly fetieral. Municipal governments were best, he had saiti, because they are closest ta the people. The Counties Council is cloý-c ta the people, and aIllI can ad- vise you is. that ta imprave your Caunties Council senti down tbi" very best men your muicipaitiýs have ta serve it. Abolition of the Counties Cauncil will mean the. dragging of every municipqI gov- ernment into partisan politics. Don't 'abalish Caunties Cauncils untîl yau have something better! ta supplant it. w.as the former Warden's parting words. Mayar Ross Strike expresseti the club's appreciation of Mr. Stinson's address. Among the' guests were Rotarian Georgel Ainslie of Oshawa; Reeve A.L Pascoe, Deputy Reeve C. M.
