HANNA lia.nna, John M. The announcement of the' res- ignation of James Shearer as Huron County Agricultural Repr resentative, brought swift action . by agriculturists in the County in :an effort to. retain his services. Less than- twenty-four hours after 'the announcement of his resignation the Huron County Agricultural War COmmitteewas convened Under. the chaigka,nship • ,of W. L. Whyte, and it was the unanimous, opinion of all the 'nernbers that eVery possible fort should be put forth to -retain, his services as agricultural rep- • resentative. The committee : ex- pressed the opinion that such complete confidence has .been placed in Mr.. Shearer's ability that the whole agricultural organ-'.- • ization centres around him, and to lose hint at this time would be definitely, detrimental t8 all agricultural activities in the COunty. -It was also pointed out • that Mr. Shearer has played- a leading role in promoting various phases of the war effort. A delegation was appointed to interview Hon. P. M. Dewan, min- ister ofAgriculture for Ontario, includ-ing Benson: Tuckey; War- den of Huron county, Tom Wil- son, Agricultural • Committee chairman, Harry Sturdy of the Federation of Agriculture and W. y e o oun y Committee. The • following resolution -was presented to Mr. De -wan: "Whereas, the Huron County Agricultural War Committee, has-: learned with feelings of deepest regret:of the 'resignation of Jas C. Shearer, as Agricultural ttep-: • • resentative of'Huron CountY,Ihey . hereby • desire to express their regret and also as a most rep- resentative group , of agricultur- ists to express their loyalty to Mr,. Shearer. Every movement con- : fleeted with agriculture or agri- cultural production and 'in fact every move connected with the war effort arising within, his reach, has received his unreserv- ed support and help. He has shown himself to be a leader, and has great executive ability. ,His. intimate acquaintance with this County, and the problems pecul- iar to it make' his services More 'valuable today, than they have ever 'been, . and in' our opinion, more valuable than would be the • serViee§:bf any other representa- tive. I3e it therefore resolved that in the 'best interests of agricul- tural production,. that the mini- ster of Agriculture for the Prov- ince of Ontario be respectfully asked to refuse to accept Mr. • Shearer's. resignation, and that . Mr, Shearer shduld be asked to re -consider his decision, arid that • he should be persuaded, if at all pOssible to pontirme with the good work, 1 which he has been doing in Huron County. Dr. R. HObbs Taylor, Progresl.- sive - Conservative candidate, • charges,that Mr. Shearer. resigned because he was instructed to use the agricultural office to further the "intefests of the government candidates •in Huron. 11 ar ST.
