Gordon Hill, Varna Was Re-elected
President of Ontario Farmers Union
Termed by the president, Gord-
on L. Hill, Varna, as the most ser-
ious and most successful conven-
tion he had ever witnessed, the
eighth annual OFU convention,
with 300 registered, concluded on
Wednesday, Oct. 21.. 4d, Morden,
Riverview, was elected vice-presi-
dent, and; Frank Gamble, Chats-
worth, second vice-presdent, Mrs.
Merle Hopkins, Fenelon Falls,
was re-elected women's president
and Mrs. Elmo. Parker, Rose-
neath, women's vice-president.
Kenneth Marisett, Piston, was el-
ected junior president.
Results of some of the resolu-
tions dealt with brought about
some changes in Farm Union pol-
icy. Foremost, was the stand tak-
en in regard to the Ontario Hog
Producers Marketing Board. While
the convention upheld the princi-
ple of producer controlled mark-
eting boards and were satisfied
with the work of some, a resolu-
tion was passed expressing com-
plete opposition to the present
method of hog marketing and an
early vote is to be requested. Op-
position to the Ontario Hog Pro-
ducers Marketing Board appears
to be directed at the Board of
directors who they feel are not
concerned with the wishes of the
producers. With the present set-
up, when a vote is taken, farm-
ers must vote either for the entire
plan, or against it, and a resolu-
tion was passed asking for legis-
lation, that would give producers
the power to vote out any undesir-
able feature of a marketing plan.
The principle of deficiency pay-
ments was strongly upheld
throughout the meeting although
there was great dissatisfaction ex-
pressed over the government's
implementation,
have
present. The
Farm Unions have never accepted
the use of the ten-year average,
in arriving at the support price,
which completely ignores the cost
of production. Also, the Union
does not favour the limit put on
each separate commodity but are
working for a unit, system where-
by a farmer, with specialized pro-
duction, can obtain the maximum
benefits allowed under the plan,
even though he produces only one
or two commodities,
It was felt if all farm organiza-
tions could work together to over-
come these obstacles, a great ser-
vice would be rendered farmers of
Canada.
A. first-hand description of the
plight of western farmers, due to
early snow. vas brought to the
meeting by President Rudy Usick,
Manitoba, who had spent most of
the previous day getting through
the snow banks into Winnipeg (a
distance of some 100 miles) to get
a 'plane to Toronto. He explained
50 inches of snow had alreadY
fallen on parts of the province.
Mr. Usick, although active in
the Farm Union for ten years, is
the youngest 'president of a pro-
vincial farm organization. He told
how prices have dropped during
the past ten years and costs have
spiralled. This cost-price squeeze
has taken its toll of prairie far-
mers.
"Had we been receiving ade-
quate grain' prices, this recent
snow may not have bothered us
too much, but the situation has
sounded the death knell to many
farmeds in Manitoba," Mr. Usick
said. ."We find in Manitoba, too,"
he continued, "If a crop does not
make enough in one year the far-
mer tries to increase his efficiency
and produce more the following
year, thus creating surpluses and
lowering prices even more."
Mr, Usick said that it was es-
sential that some new program
be introduced to. keep the family
farm alive. He suggested' that sup-
port prices should be based on
cost of production, and that there
was a need for deficiency pay-
ments. He continued by saying,
"Farmers must have a strong
bargaining power and this can be
achieved through a strengthened
Farm Union. You have the means
by which you can correct this
grim situation in agriculture. We'-
ve got to get to the farmer before
there is no farmer,"
Mrs. Beatrice Trew, president,
Saskatchewan Women's Farm Un-
ion, addressed the convention
Wednesday afternoon. She said
that it didn't matter much wheth-
er men or women took office pro-
viding they had the qualifications,
respect and dignity to maintain
the position.
"Farm women are too well a-
ware that there is not enough
money left to support the family
farm after expenses are paid,"
Mrs. Trew said. 'This• is why
women in Saskatchewan took an
active interest in the formation of
farm policy. We realize, too, that
it takes more than money to
make the farm a good place where
young people want to live, so we
Farm Union women in Saskatche-
wan concern ourselves with the
arts, good literature, health, home
economics, which all lead to grac-
ious farm living," she said. She
told of the cancer equipment they
bought in 1957, the wing of a
mental hospital they furnished in
1953, and the research program
to •assist retarded children they
are working on this year.
Mrs. Trew told of attending the
tri-ennial conference of the As-
sociated County Women of the
Word at Edinburgh, Scotland, as a
representative of the Farm Union.
Here she said, she met with 1,000
women from 30 different countries
and how they endeavoured to
work for the things that united
them and forget about the things
that separated them.
She said at this meeting they
concerned themselves with the
two-thirds of mankind who are
hungry, the poor, sick, illiterate
and stateless. At present 300,000,-
000 people have malaria and 40,-
000,000, through no fault of their
own, are stateless.
Mrs. Trew concluded by telling
of her visits to farms in the Brit-
ish Isles and Germany. She told
of one farm in England where
three families were deriving an

These people credit this to their
Farm Union, whose membership
is about 100 per cent, their mar-
keting boards., co-ops, and defic-
iency payments. She said that
she returned to Canada convinced
that if agriculture is going to get
its rightful place here, we will
have to work for it.
