That it is further the opinion of this Council that the Provincial Governâ€" ment would be warranted in proceedâ€" ing {urther with such legislation, and to the extent, at least, of cancelling the appointment of such junior judges throughout the Province as are now unnecessarily holding such positions. That, inasmuch as the office of senâ€" ior judge of this county is now vacant through the lamented death of the late Judge Reade, that this Council heartily approves of the action of the Warden in his opposition to the apâ€" pointment of a second Judge for this county, and hereby petitions the Proâ€" vincial and Dominions Departments of Justice to see that no more than one judge is appointed for this county.

The counciliors were not unanimous in connection with the question of the inclusion of the business and income taxes, but all were agreed that Watâ€" erioo shouid not be assessed on the declared $215,000 business tazx for the Kuntz Brewery and the Seagram disâ€" tilleries inasmuch as this amount was an exemption since the enactment of the O. T. A. and not a tax revenue to the town. A Great Injustice. The great injustice to Waterloo had been done in connection with including business and income assessâ€" ment in the eugalization. This, Mr. Haight contended, was contrary to a précedent set by the County Council Jong before the county departed from th< double representation system. He thought it was poor policy on < the part of the committee to depart from this precedent. It had been an unâ€" \dernumllng for many years thal only real estate values would be considâ€" ered in arriving at the equalization figures. Few Advantages. In his argument on behalf of a reâ€" adjustment J. C. Haight pointed out that of all the municipalities in the county Waterloo got the least out of the advantages of union with the county. He declared the House of Refuge records showed less inmates from Waterloo than from any other municipality in the county. Waterloo had to contribute its own . separate share to the upkeep of the Kitchenerâ€" Waterloo Collegiate and the Kitchâ€" enerâ€"Waterloo Hospital and received no advantages whatever from . the Continuation Schools of the rural townships to which with the other municipalities of the county it contriâ€" buted its‘ share.
