"Re garding our alleged $180,000 cash surplus, I‘ve heard about it but haven‘t got it yet. I never count money before I get it. A good part of it is to come from the taxpayers and the way it looks now we‘ll have to have a lawsuit to get most of it", he laughed. ‘"And if you have a lawsult, the lawyers will finish with the $180,000", commented ‘Mayor Servias.

In my opinion the idea in that is that if you haven‘t a surplus you must borâ€" row money, and by the end of the year you are required to pay the bank ahout $20,000 interest," asserted Mr. Cassel. Admittedly due to the fear that the government might step in and order the county to rebate their surplus, Mr. Cassel urged that the registry office be built this year. 6 Taxes Disappoar Pointing out that the Hepburn govâ€" erament had taken $40,000 to $45,000 of Mothers® Allowance off the shoulâ€" ders of the municipality of Kitchener, Mayor Bervias of Galt aaid he was totally unable to discover why the mill rate stayed at parâ€""unless", he suggested, "they are spending the money on registry offices, post offices and hospitals." â€" â€" ‘‘They have no right whatever to charge us 4 and oneâ€"half per cent. interest and only pay one and one half.
