"You mean to say—

Sounds good! Logical, tool You see the normal job of the
kidneys is to remove excess wastes and acids
—so often the cause of backache—from the
system. Dodd's Kidney Pills stimulate the
kidneys ,in this function and so may bring you
that welcome relief from backache they have
many others. Try just 3-a-day. You can depend

The Editor,
Clinton News-Record,
Dear Editor:
aust a few comments on the
Sept. 3 issue. Your editorial
"Would Pare Quote seems
strangely out of place in view of
the fact that President Eisenhow-
er had vetoed the Bill some two
or three weeks previous to your
dateline. I question the wisdom
of encouraging fear of U.S. re-
prisals in the light of their deficit
trading position with us. Canada
annually purchases over a billion
dollars more goods from the U,S,
than they buy from us. The U.S.
has ten times the population of
Canada therefore, our purchases
should not be greater than our
sales. We should sell more to our
southern cousins than we buy
from them.
I was pleased to note the ques-
tion mark in the heading on your
story of the Hog Meeting in Hol-
mesville. One usually discovers a
question mark in matters relating
to our Hog Marketing Board,
However, I believe you do Mr.
Robert Taylor, OFU director, an
injustice. You refer to fairly heat-
ed arguments and denouncements
of Charles IVICInniS by a guest,
then mention only Mr. Taylor's
name. This leaves the impression
that Mr. Taylor is the culprit. My
discussions with several persons
Who attended, reveal that at no
time did Bob 'denounce Mr. Mc-
Innis. Perhaps a correction ,is in
order,
As for the call for greater unity
and good will among farm groups,
these are hollow words when issu-
ed by the Hog Producers Board.
These 1,2 men have consistently
shown regard for only their own
views and opinions, They will not
tolerate any interference, and are
going their own way come -"hell
or high water." Such a call for
unity would be expressed more
clearly by actions, than words.
The six excuses listed, as put
forth in support of the Market-
ing Board stand require a word
of caution, Firstly, regarding a
"countervailing duty." The US, is
anxious that Canadian pork
should, not cross their border at
less than the support price. This
is understandable, and had Mr.
McInnis bothered to consult the
Stabilization Board he would have
discovered the matter under close
scrutiny and several methods
worked out to overcome this ob-
jection. Fortunately Mr, McInnis
was able to attend a meeting in
Ottawa on Sept. 2 and was given
this information.
As for encouraghig the smaller
producer to increase his produc-
tion to the limit set by the Stab-
ilization Board. why should the
producer who has not stepped up
production when offered $25 per
cwt, on an unlimited number of
hogs, suddenly do so when offer-
ed $23,65 per cwt. on a specified
number?
Regarding the "handout" as-
pect. Is a deficiency payment.
whereby the government pays the
producer the difference between
the average market price and the
support price a greater hand-
out than the present system,
whereby the government supports
the market price by purchasing
certain "cuts" at approximately
38-39c per pound and sells these
"cuts" at a considerable loss? I
say no. It ill behooves the leader
of a farm organization to refer to
the meagre amounts of govern-
ment funds spent on agriculture
as handouts, in view of the huge
sums spent on other industries.
Mr, McInnis whose organization
will collect well over a million
dollars in fees for 1959 would do
well to consider the producers
position for a moment. The offer
to purchase type support can not
be considered successful. as it has
failed to maintain producers re-
turns at realistic levels. With
production now integrated we can
expect sufficient marketings to
hold the price down to the floor,
for as long as a floor price is
APPRECIATES PAPER
Dear Sir:
I'm writing this letter for the
sole purpose of letting you know
how much I realy enjoy the week-
ly Clinton paper, as I'd feel lost
down here without it.
I see by the paper that an Old
Home Week is being planned for
1960, I think that it's a wonder-
ful idea. I was unable to attend
the one in 1950 and felt bad as I
knew that by 1975 a great number
of the folks I'd like to see again
woudn't be there. So let's have
an Old Home Week in 1960.
I see by the paper a few weeks
ago that we lost one of the left
wing players of the old Clinton
Colts hockey team of the 30's.
It wasn't many years ago that we
could find our team on the sport
page of a good many newspapers,
I have to admit that I was
really hurt not to find even a
small write up of Kelso Street's
hockey past at the time of his
death, Because it was players like
him that put the Clinton team on
top and on the map.
I really do enjoy the paper re-
gardless of what I said so don't
feel hurt. Keep up the good work
on the paper.
SYD LAWSON.
Sincerely Yours,
RR 3, Harmon Ont,,
September 2, 1959,
provided on all production. If
we hope to get our hog price out
of its present depressed position
we must somehow tailor our pro-
duction to market demands. At
the present time we must ensure
the family farm returns that will
allow it to stay in business. This,
deficiency payments can do,
There are one or two weakness-
es in the mechanics which the
government proposes to use in the
new program, These weaknesses
could best be overcome by all
farm organizations working to-
gether in an atmosphere of co-
operation and unity in a common
endeavour to evolve a sound agri-
cultural policy. However in the
absence of such an atmosphere
the Farm Unions will continue to
"go it alone" until such time as
other groups indicate they wish
to help.
Very sincerely yours,
GORDON L. HILL.
Varna, Ontario,
September 7, 1959.
Editor's Note: The "Would
Pare Quota" editorial was not
ours but that of the London Free
Press. Mr, Taylor was the only
guest present who did speak
against Mr. McInnis and the work
of the Hog Board. "Denounce"
has several meanings, one of
which, and possibly the most us-
ed is: to accuse, Mr, Taylor ac-
cused Mr, McInnis of not acting
in the best interests of the pro-
ducers, and of not having the
true facts of the situation.
A coroner's jury at Hensall in-
quiring into the October 15, 1958,
traffic death of William R, Som-
erville, Seaforth, found that Mr.
Somerville died as a direct result
of injuries received in the two-
car collision,
The jury attached equal blame
to Mr. Somerville and the driver
Of the other car involved in the
collision, N. B. Spurrel, London.
Mr, Spurrel was blamed for ex-'
Cessive speed and Mr. Somerville
for entering Highway 4 at Kippen
in the face of oncoming traffic,
Dr, E. A. McMaster, Seaforth,
was presiding coroner,
The inquest was delayed near-
