Taxes
About 80 persons attended the
July meeting of Huron County Fe-
deration of Agriculture to hear
Gordon Hill, ,president of the On-.
tario Federation of Agriculture.
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.
