SLACK James Street Phone HU 2-3873 (By special correspondent) When. the Ontario Farmers' Union met in Toronto early last week for their Board Meeting and annual presentation of their brief, Bill 86 proved to be a very cons troversial subject of discussion. The Farm Union has long felt the need of -a supervitory group over all marketing boards. It is their opinion this group should be a general farm organization. Sin- ce there is not one at present the Farm Products Marketing Beard should act in this capacity. Farm Union directors felt it teas not the government's inten- tion to get- into the produce mar- keting business, but that this bill was designed to protect pro- ducers. They felt the unjustified actions of the Hog Producers were responsible for the introduction of this bill. It was urged that indi- vidual farmers and farm organiz- ations get Bill 86, Study it for themselves, form their own opin- ions and not be influenced by the stormy literature prevalent in the province at present. While it was- felt there was Much merit in Bill 86, Farm Un- ion directors thought in its pres- ent form there was too much government control. The following amendments were passed: (1) 'The Farm Products Mark- eting Board shall intervene and fake control of a• marketing board only after the beard -has failed to get the necessary majority of vo- tes in a plebiscite. (2). When the marketing board is again organized and -a new plan available, control must re- vest back to it. There shall be a time limit (two years) that the Farm Products Marketing Board could have control. Farm Union president Gordon Hill on TV Sunday noted that 'if the producers board, at the end of the time limit, were not in posit- ion to take control, then the board would be dissolved, and government control Would cease. The amendments were presen- ted to the three politica parties, the egticatural committee and representatives of the Farm Pro- ducts Marketing Board, HENSALL Teen Town Hensall arid District 'Teen Town held a very successful hard time dance in the eatnmunity centre on Saturday, March 12.

'Ne.),VS:KrTiv-1141rSdayl March 24, 1900-1Iurich farmers Buy OFU Brief to CabinetHolds High Testing Bulls Several Good 'Suggestions 1. a). (7) The Farm Union 'plan for deficiency payments, based on a unit system, and cost of- produc- tion was reviewed and the pro- vincial government wasaSked, for. their support of this plan when possible. It was explained that farmer's basic .prohiem was one of "pricing," not lack of- efficiency Among other things asked for were uniform text books within the province, Changes in the hos- pitalization plan and adacntate marketing legislation. - Hog Producers At the Board meeting -the Hog Producers Marketing Board ,,was discussed. Many suggestions for an improved board were brought forward - Among these were: (1) An elected official - should not bold office more than four years. (2) ' Existence of. the three Iif Ards which „reSpansible 'to one"'acialiher and .-*.inelud4 same men on each board, register- ed disapproval. The 'average far- mer is confused by this, but it was pointed out, under .the present plan these three' boards are nec- essary. (3) A more .democratic system of elections is necessary. TOWn.- ship directors should he elected by township hog producers not coun- ty producers. All voting should be won by ballot in open con- vention. (4) In the event of a _ vote an enumeration is necessary. The The l3oard of. the Ontario Far- tiler's Union, led by wesicient ..G. La Hill, Varna, presented their an- nual .brief to th e Cabinet, all, pol- itical parties and the agricultural committee on March 15 .antl 16. The delegation (larger than. us- ual) was indication of increased. Farm Union activity across the ,province. Highlights. of Brief (1) Daylight Saving Time was- ,asked to be banned or universal dates for its use set, (2) •A special license classifica- tion for farm trucks ,wed little in- comparison to oommercial trucks, was asked for. The gov- ernment suggested a seasonal lic- ense may be introduced. This did not meet Farm Union approval. (3) Misuses of the Expropria- trim Act were cited, The govern- ment promised that some changes. would be made do this Act .soon. (4) Compulsory'. car insurance .00^‘P•1,14§.gitrigted! Fund were requested Premier 'Firost said there would be some changes here but the Fund would still exist for- hit and run and tourist accident cases, (5) It was requested that con- signers' names be revealed et community sales. • The govern.. merit .said they would contact' sal- es managers regarding this. - (6), Action on Crop Insurance Plan was asked for. OFU was. told - further study was being taken a n d suggested a commission would be set up to investigate the plan as it exists elsewhere (Man-, At Ontario Sale These purchases were made at the Ontario bull sale held in To- ronto. Top prices at the sale were for bulls consigned by W, A. Cul- bert ,gz Sons, Dungannon, "Gold Standard" sold at $1,400 to gt.dnte Cattle Breeders, Beheville. "Gold Medal" was bought at $1,30() by Waterloo Cattle Breeders ASSOC-, cation. ' enumerator should be a. neutral person (or persons) not associated with farm organilation, and nom- Mated by a municipal council. It was' suggested anyone selling hogs since 1958 be eligible to vote. (5) Interesting question; Should the Hog. Producers Marketing Board have any more right to use. ttle,jarodgeers-:money-to fur- ther their c.aa'npair& ;that- a poli- tical party has to use the tax payer's money for election cam- paign funds? (6) 'Disapproval of Assembly yards was voiced, and the critic- ism directed to truckers, from HPMB was not justified. Many persons reported truckers in their area doing a wonderful job. (7) It is felt information cora- ing from the Hog Producers does not always present the true pic- ture. Ina recent Rural Co-Oper- ator, Mr. McInnis pointed out they would be willing to try out a new system of sale because they had just been informed they could -evert to their present method should the new one not work out. Vire door has always been open for them to do this. It is not news. (8) The advisability of an "ad- visory committee" to HPMB was discussed. This committee,. could include those related to the hog industry e.g. (1) Consumer, (2) Domestic Meat Packers (small packers), (3) Transporters as well as hog producers. It was thought that a committee of this nature could do a lot to promote better public relations which are obvious- ly lacking today.
