Allon -tells-.1-0.,..side-.Qf.1?-ean dispute;
At a recent meeting of the
Ontario Bean Produiers
Marketing Board held inZurich,
bean produccfs in Huron County
were split over the issue of
whether or not the producers
should use dealers to market
beans_produced.
„Robed Allan of Brucefield, a
long time, member and former
chairman of the' board, lost his
4• seat on the board When he took
the unpo pular position of
opposing .-*the - bypassing .of
dealers.
..In an interview with the Exeter
Independent News, Mr, Alla'n
recently stated his position on the
question and made a number'of
interesting comments'on -the past,
*present and future operation of
the board. s
As Mr. AIleds S'ttiry is only one
side of the question, -the- News
intends to do a similar interview
with Phil Durand of- 'Zurich,
chairMan of' the board, whose
views conflict with th•lse of Mr.
Allan.
"We • in the - bean industry

lamented bean farmer , Robert
Allan of Brumfield.
Mr. Allan had recently 'lost lac
position as • a member of the-
Ontario Bean Marketiv, Board ,

• Mr. Allan believes the bean'
Poducers can operate efficiently
through the dealers as they have
been f many years.
According to Mr. Allan, the
prbdikers are alread%'"'selling all
the beans" which has been the
slog'an 'for the group wishing to
bypass the dealers. He Stated that
the bean hoard now sets the time,
price and amount for any sale of'
beans before the dealer can carry
out the transaction.

Hensall, Thompson's of Henson,

Mr. Durand was not acting on the
wishes of the bard. He said that
police decisions made by the
board were disregarded -by Mt4

his own theories. • .
Even though they are at
opposite end-7.5••fs-t-fi'd- contentious
issue, Mr. Allan still has a lot of
respect for Mr. Durand and refers
to him as "one of the best board
