(I hope), and since farmers are a particularly optimistic group of individuals, I expect most of them are taking up their belts a notch or two to meet what lies ahead. Even the hog producers are un- daunted and are even now laying plans for a "FAME" share selling campaign early in the new year. There seems to be a strong feel- ing of enthusiasm and determina- tion on the part of producers in this direction, and eventually they will have their own • processing plants. In the present marketing situa- tion for the hog producers, the fu- ture does not look bright. The re- cent order by the Farm Products Marketing Board states that the hog producers must present a new method of marketing hogs by Janu- ary 16. -.. .... .

A good many years and several experiments were required in the development of the present meth- od, so it is hardly likely that a better plan can be developed in a couple of weeks. (After all, the members of the Hog Producers Marketing Board would like to have a few days off to relax for Christmas and New Year's). The new methods suggested by Mr. McCague have already been suggested . by the Hog Producers over the past couple of years, but previously apparently did not meet with the approval of the Gov- ernment -appointed body. Why the change of heart? It seems to be intended in all three of the suggestions, open auc- tion, Dutch clock and ticker -tape bidding, that all buyers must some- how be assembled in one place in Toronto. I think all of you will realize that it will be most inconvenient for a "great many of the smaller packers to arrange to have a re- presentative attend this place of sale at all times. To avoid this difficulty, the Farm Products Mar- keting Board can license buyers who could purchase hogs for sev- eral plants. In other words, sev- eral brokers will be necessary who will have to be paid for out of the proceeds of. the hog. This cost, along with the cost of supplying a place and facilities, might easily approach the contro- versial $75,000 to finance the On- tario Hog Producers Association. Since this additional expense is at the order of the Government appointed body and suppos!"d to be largely to protect the interests .of the consumer, it would seem logi- cal to have the Government pick up the bill. The alternative seems to be for. the Hog Producers to have the Government take over the sales agency and assets that the pro- ducers have set up and financed. This might be compared to my driver's permit. I fulfilled the re- quirements and received a ,permit to drive my car. If I fail to obey the regulations, the stron.g arm of the law can take my permit and impound my car. This much I can stand,. but 1 cannot stand for the law to take my car to go driving with my wife. Yet this is the sit- uation facing the present }fog Mar- keting Agency if flog Producers fail to 'bend the knee.
