CENTRE GREY WIPED OUT (Chesley Enterprise) At the nominat;ion& for tbe vacan- cy in the Centre Grey caused by the resignation of Hon. Dougald Carmich- ael to contest the Federal seafe^of North Grey, there was considerable criticism aimed at the members from Grey in the Legislature, Taylor, Car- michael and Jamieson, in not protest- ing against the refuresentation of Gi:^ being cut down from three to two, and Simcoe being left with four members. The population of Grey is 5^,000 and Simcoe only 84,0<MK It does look as though the genial Dr. Jamieson and I his colleagues from Grey: were asleep at the switch, but instead of Grey hav- ing three it would be in the interests of economy if Simcoe were cut down to three. .
