Mr. Hill went on to say, "when
you go to Ottawa you find it• very
confusing. Some of our leaders will
say there are two ways to over-
come our problems. Firstly: To
go home and ask the farmers to
produce less. Secondly: To go ho-
me and tell the farmers that they
will have to be more efficient and
produce more." Mr, Hill feels
that some of the leaders in Ottawa
just don't understand agriculture
problems and it makes him won-
der just what is going to happen
to agriculture if farmers do not
get down to Ottawa and present
their problems. On the other hand
some people working in civil ser-
vice are very interested and well
educated in agriculture.
"Government is gradually accept-
ing the deficiency payment plan
which is designed to help the fam-
ily farm, and when they do .it will
certainly be the 'forward_ look for
the Farmer's Union," said Mr. Hill.
Mr. Hill suggested "that we get
together a little oftener with lab-
our heads and discuss our prob-
lems together which are so com-
mon to both of us," He closed
with the Farm Union slogan, "Un-
ited we stand Divided we fall."

which will hold 2,000 people, is
not going to be available and the
delegation is going to have -to

which will just hold 1,000 people.
Ontario has decided not to send
a delegate from each local as pl-
anned, but the province will be
represented by president Gordon
Hill and women's president, Mrs.
Merle Hopkins and members close
at hand to Ottawa.
It was reported by the com-
mittee in charge that the annual
variety show plans are going a-
head as to schedule and it' is hop-
ed it will be held in the Legion
Hall, Clinton some time in. the
Easter Holidays.

Waterloo Hospital.
Mr. Hill reported that the or
ganization is going along quite
favourably considering what a
hazardous winter it has been.
Many special meetings and canvas-
ses, had to be cancelled and this
has worked against the Union's
progress, He said 'there had been
"terrific strides in the past, but
we still have a long way to go,"
As he discusses the economic sit-
uation with' people across Ontario
he finds there are many (not only
farmers) watching the organiza-
tion, "Are we just going to be
a big blow for a few years and
then run out of wind or are we
going to grow and really accomp-
lish something?" Mr. Hill Says
there arc only two things that
can °Militia° this organization,
One is the lack of finance, the
other is the hesitancy of the farm':
er to help himself. "Nothing worth
while miles to us easy so we
must go Out and work for it."
"In the papers, on the radio and
T.V. we read of the tremendous
