Mr. Hill in his remarks sug- gested that farmers withhold the education portion of their taxes ""For 20 years we have been trying to get a more equitable levy of school, tax" he said. Edu- cation tax should be based, not on property assessment, but on in- come, which is a true indicator of your ability to pay." The OFA backs the with- holding of the education portion of the tax and Mr. Hill went on to point out examples of unfair- ness. Mr. Hill discussed the im- portation of the powdered• milk from Ireland and said the OFA is supporting the Ontario Milk Marketing Board and the Nation- al Farmers' Union in their de- mands that the importation be stopped. Mason Bailey, individual sales co-ordinator, reported that sales had risen 10% over last month and that there had been re- quests from three townships for sales blitz, as a result of the Successful. blitz in Grey Town- ship, where more tharrone-third of the farmers joined the orga- nization. In other business, the direc- tore turned down a proposal 'to provide for five districts in the county which referred to stay on a township level. . The meeting adopted a reso- lution asking the C.P.R. and C. N. R, "'railway% to maintain their fences in a satisfactory condi- tion.
