SS 4 Forum Ready to Share With Needy Folk (By Mrs. Ira Merrill) The SS No. 4, Goderich Township Farm Forum met on Monday night at -the home of Mr. and Mrs. John Merrill, with ten members present. The radio topic for discussion was "Food For Peace". Question 1: Do you feel any responsibility for the needy nations? If so, what sacrifice are you prepared to make of time, money, or commodities? Have you made any contribu- tion to CARE or to other such programs in the past? Should Canada plan to produce food for nations even though there may be no payment or a low- er payment for such produc- tion? Answer: Yes, we do feel a responsibility for the needy nations. We feel that the necessary finances and materi- al for such international con- tributions should be handled by the government, and come from taxation, so everyone will share alike. Yes, we have made contributions to CARE, our local SS No. 4 Community Club has donated to CARE regularly for some time. We think Canada should be paid for its food, even if not to its full value. Question 2: What should Canada be prepared to give as a nation? Would you be pre- pared to give one percent of Canada's gross national pro- duct? (Over $350 million per year). Answer: This amount of money sounds like a large amount, but this would be a better investment than in war equipment. A short period of time was spent in playing "500". Lunch was served by the ladies. The next meeting will be held at the home of Mr, and Mrs. Fred Lobb. A special speaker from the Co-op is expected to be at this meeting. Young Auburn Couple Wed MR.
