Mr. Holt stated he was sur- prised by the turn of events but declined further com- ment until he discussed the matter with Committee Chairman Councillor Lois Hancey. Reasons for severing the agreement were not made public. "The committee recom- mends to council that the ambulance agreement not be renewed and that Operator Dave Holt be so advised." Decision came last week following a recommendation to council from its fire, am- bulance and bylaws commit- tee.

The overall question of subsidies was a prime topic in many communities then with the service threatened due to the strained circum- stances ot‘ the independent operators. The entire ambulance ser- vice came in for considerable discussion both locally and provincially during April, May and June of 1965. In April of that year Rich- mond Hill and Vaughan Township were faced with cancellation of the service unless some subsidy was forthcoming to bolster the operation. 1n the past there has been considerable discussion reâ€" garding the annual agreement and what subsidy the muni- cipalities should pay to the service which is located in Richmond Hill. In May of the same year Richmond Hill Council signâ€" ed the three-way agreement with Mr. Holt after five months of considering an in- creased subsidy. $210.80 a month, Markham $58.40; and Vaughan $130.80.

This has not been necessary in the past. An indication of the fin- ancial risk involved in oper- ating such a service was re- vealed in h'Iai‘ch of 1966 when Mr. Holt asked and received permission from Richmond Hill Council to hold down a part-time job in order to keep operating his business. The provincial government has since passed legislation setting out certain standards of operation which must be adhered to if a municipality is to start receiving a 50 per cent subsidy. Mr. Holt said at the time that a part-time job had be- come necessary due to “unex- pected increases in operating costs.” stay in business and run an efficient ambulance service. Without some subsidy he couldn’t afford to continue the operation. Council gave its approval on condition it would not “jeopardize his ambulance service.” Mr. Holt operates two vehicles â€"- one an ambulance and the other a station wagon â€" in making calls.

In 1967 our organization will strive to hit the 300,000 mark in enrolment and the idea is to give a special lapel badge to members who bring in one or more members either new or reâ€"instated. The badge will in- ‘corporate all flhe regular feat- ures of the present membership lpin, but will have the word iéntennial” inscribed in the @ Your legion Reports Branch 375, Royal Canadian Legion By Eric Chapman scroll underneath. It is hoped the badge will en- courage member participation in the 1967 membership cam- paign which begins in January. Already quotas have been as- signed to each command and awards will be made to those successful in achieving the set figure. It is interesting to note that if every Branch 375 member is nearing the Centennial badge ‘r'is time next year we could well be the second largest in the province.
