Phingsten,. N.F.O. Vice-president spoke on • collective bargaining for farm- ers. Describing etperiences in Wa- shington, Oregon -and .Idaho, a leading potato growing region of the U.S. he said last year growers received' 85' cents per' 100 lbs. for No. 1-potatoes. They received as low as 5 cents per ton for small potatoes sold to consumers in cans at 20 cents per lb. for the potatoes in the can exclusive of the water. This winter the N70 organized the 3.states and because 70 per cent of the-•production was voluntar- ily signed up they now have contracts with .buyers that call for'$4.25 for No, 1 potatoes and , $20.00 per ton for the small "Potatoes. John Dolmer Hon. Past Pres- ident of the Farmer's ,Union thanked the guest speaker and spoke • briefly, on the GPO Cam- paign. Mr, Dolmer said that rumors of his supporting the GPO Vote Committee are absolutely false, and only made to intentially mislead farmers. He said that as a former pres- ident, and now an active memb- er at his district level, he want- ed to emphasize he fully agrees. with the OFU provincial board's decision not to support the GFO campaign, which In his opinion., is the government's farm income committee's proposals. • "We believe we have - been around farm organization long enough, to realize farmers can- not. be -united simply by having a vote, and- another compuliory deduction made on their prod- uction," he said. "The illusive groundswell being created now will not organize farmers - it may bring about an organization that will whip them into posit- ion though, and even eliminate thousands," he predicted. Mr. Dolmer said he believed when the OFU entered into dis- cussions many, months ago it was on the basis of studying the formation of one farm organizat- ion. "Now",.he said, "apparently the objective is only to have one less organization, and' emerge with a revamped fed- eration of agriculture with a two and one half million dollar budget."
