on the peaceful settlement of

The County Commissioners took
definite action towards remedying
prevalent Conditions at the County
Home at it's regular meeting yes
terday morning, with the adoption
of a set of regulations for the OPP
Grafton of the institution.
Upon a motion of Commissioner
Harry C.. Gardner, the Commission
ers also recommended that a sur
vey be made of the County home
|by the Welfare department, and a
report be submitted by the Depart
ment to the County commissioners,
making recommendations and sug-
gestions for the operation Of the
home in the future.
The Welfare board, which had
previously asked for a meeting
with the County Commission, will
submit it's findings to the board at
some time prior to the drawing up
of the county budget for the COM
ing fiscal year.
On their tour of the County home
last Thursday, undertaken as a re-
suit of criticism expressed in the
Grand jury's June report, Commits
sioner Gardner said that the situa-
ton there was found to be far from
satisfactory.
Il have the very deepest SYM
pathy for those people out there"
Mr.. Gardner said, but there must
be some set of rules formulated to
set up standards for the treatment
of the inmates.
He further expressed the need
for regulating the operation of the
County home so that we will not
get publicly criticized time and
time again as we have in the past"
Since some of the dissatisfaction
among the inmates at the home
seems to stem from the varyi~g
treatment accorded paying and
non-paying residents, the Board of
Commissioners, on motion of Mr..
Gardner, seconded by Chairman
Addison Hewlett, voted to exclude
from the home in the future all
paying patients.
The rules and regulations con-
corning the County home, to be
made on the -asis of recommended
tons by the Welfare department,
