And, he claimed, the government, rather than encour- aging -a sugar beet Industry in' Ontario, had hindered it by re- e fusing to guarantee that if a plant for processing the sugar was built a quota of 20 per cent of the Canadian market would be set aside for Canadian-pro- duced sugar.

The NDP promises, she said, to set up a farm machinery board which would look after a machinery testing program, bring about standardization of farm mach- inery and set up a program to, encourage manufacture and int- portation of farm machinery. An NDP government would set up a commission to study the best size for a farm unit and would bring in a land bank which would buy up land which was for sale and . lease it back .to farmers so they would not have..to in- vest so much in land. It would prohibit foreign and corporate takeover • of land and provide 10w:interest loans to young farm- ers to help them get started. She said there must be more planning in rural communities with more decentralization and involvement of the local people. During .the question period, Phil Durand, speaking for the Federation claimed that farmers were subsidizing low food prices 'for consumers. He said that farmers were suffering with low incomes in order to keep food prices down. He asked if some- thing could„ be done to stop this. Mrs. Weary said that food prices must be kept down but that the farmer should not be the' one to pay for low prices. "If this means subsidizing the farmer then this must be done" she said. Mr. McKinley claimed the present government has a cheap food policy -and believee farm- ers Should be maintained only to produce cheap food. The Con:- servatives„, on the other hand, he said, believe that if the farm- er is in good financial shape, the whole economy will be in good shape. Mr. Thomas replied that the only cheap food policy the Lib- erals had wag that they did a great deal of research to find ways for farmers to produce food as cheaply, as possible, thus allowing' the farmers to prosper while keeping food prices down. ,,Approve (Continued from Page 1) -two lots each • containing a lot • and a half.

Councillor Dave Tremeer re- porting for the Arena Board asked for a by-law to endorse an agree- ment with the Seaforth Curling ,,Club to supply freezing solution froth Nov. 1 to March 31 at a cost of $1,000. The by-law was passed. Councillor Bill Pinder of the Protection to Pers.:ills and Pro- perty committee 'asked council to accept the resignation of Wm. Posliff as of September 20.

A bill from Canadian Mitchell Associates for $929.26 was not paid 'as the council felt the char- ges should be checked out.

In reality, Section 29 of the General Regulation of the Police Act, calls for a Council by-law to be passed for- -bidding a ,policema n to engage in any other occupation than Police work, before disciplinary action can be taken.' If Constable Ruston had acted, properly and not lost his temper, the charge against him would have been dismissed. An examination of the Force function brought out some glar- ing deficiencies: j. The filing system is in- adequate and needs -to be re- placed, using proper, occurrence . forms, etc. • 2. The duty sheet should be more explicit and state 'what hours he is on call."It is essen- tial that there be little or no change to the duty sheet once it is posted, other than in an emergency. Changes in the past have . caused .4. great deal of resentment, • 3. The work copies of un- resolved occurrences should be on file boards and all the work that is done• on these occurren- ces should be noted on the con- tinuation sheets of the occurren- ces. 4. The system lf recording and holding, ',found" or "con- fiscated" property , is improper and this has led to suspicion and criticism in the past. 5. There is a. total lack ,of esprit de corp on the Force. Communication between the Chief and his men is kept to a mini- mum and this sparse interchange of information and knowledge is a serious handicap to an untrained group of men. (Deletion) 6. There is a fluctuating method of 'enforcement in the Town of Seaforth, rather than, constant, fair andc9mmon sense •applicatiori of law and by-laws, by the Force. An example of this was. a complaint by (deleted) that a letter , (Appendix 5) was not read 12y the members of the Police Force and in fact, she complained that Chief Hulley had ' caused a girl student much gm- .barrassment by removing her `from the school, merely to question her about another youth. The on and off enforcement of parking meter violations does nothing to repair the Police image. Recommendations 1. A new filing system be instituted, sample of proper forms accompanies this report and the Advisers will assist the Chief in getting it started. - 2. Detailed duty sheets clearly stating time "on duty" and “On call", will be posted one month in advance. Ahy changes after posting will be only of emergent necessity. • 3. The filing of occurrences will be in categories (all Offences of .a similar nature, such as assaults-, will be in one folder). Copies of the occurrences will be kept on 'working file boards 'to encourage post-incident investi- gations. 4. Occurrence should- be made out on found and confis- cated property. The "property should be properly tagged and the signed receipted portion of the tag should be stapled to'the original 'occurrence form when the property is claimed. 5. The' men of the Seaforth Police Force, including the Chief, were recruited at an economic level which makes their potential and ability questionable. This, together with the lack of formal police training, presents modern day policemen with a handicap to cope with the prob- lems of, (a) Administration methods and procedures. (b) Man management and communications. (c) The increasing eorn- plexity of law and the changing needs of so- ciety. It should be impressed upon the entire police force that co-oper- ation is of paramount importance -if they hope to gair the confi- dence and respect oi the public. 6. The Council st.`nnit to the Chief In writing, indiv ivalpolice orders (to be posted I T all per- sonnel to see). The.;e orders could pertain to: (a) Rotation on shifts of all personnel (b)" Types and hours of pa- trol desired (c) Maintenance of proper records ' (d) Maintenance of a daily activity sheet (e) Prompt attention to citizens complaints (f) 'Answering cammuni- ' tvatkgm,7, . police- information `ex- pediently' to all police personnel • (g) Keeping the dispatcher completely informed as to the acceptable police procedure and standing orders." (Deletion) The Ontario Police Commis- sion have been pleased to assis the Council of the Town. of Seaforth in their efforts to, upgrade' the standard of polye service in the Community.
