William A. Stewart, Minister of Agriculture, announced to- day. Under the terms of the legis- lation farmers may claim up to the market value of live- stock proved to have been kill- ed by hunters. In order that the legislation may become effective immedi- ately, Agricultural Representa- tives will act as valuators until other officials are appointed in the various counties. The Act will be administered by the Ontario Live • Stock Commissioner. Claims by farmers under the legislation will be in the form of sworn affidavits. May We point out that in. the case of - the egg vote', as with all other marketing plans, the plebiseite comes as a result of a request for a plan by bona fide egg prOducers. This re- quest takes the iform of a Petition, signed by a significant number of producers being submitted to the Ontario Farm Products Marketing Board. • In addition to. this, favour, able consideration had been given to the formulation of some sort of plan at each an- nual meeting - of the Ontario Poultry Producers' Association for the past several years. Dur- ing the last annual meeting a resolution was approved in, structing our .executive to take immediate action in this re- gard. It was pointed out that a petition, bearing the signatures Of some 5,500 egg producers, had already been submitted to the Ontario Farm Products Marketing Board in 1962 and this petition was still valid. We trust this review of the facts leading to a plebiscite be, ing held on an egg marketing plan will serve to clarify the situation. Again we would em, phasize this vote has been re- quested by the egg producers themselves and is not being foisted upon them by any ip-- dividual, group of persons, board, or government agency. May we - point out that when the Vote is taken later this year, every bona fide producer of eggs will be given -the op- portunity of voting for or against the • plan, and, unless the majority of producers ex- press themselves in favour, the plan will not go into effect. The Ontario Poultry Produc- ers' Association points out that, as has been the case with any proposed marketing legis- lation, there are these who would seek to confuse the is- sue., Either they are not in possession of the facts, or, they are deliberately attempting to confuse the issue by spreading rumors and telling half truths. This can be extremely dang- erous. Often such people seek to discredit a plan by intimat- ing that it is being foisted upon the producer by some "outside" influence when there is not a shred of truth in their allega- tions. The purpose of the proposed marketing plan is to bring stability to the market and al- leviate wide and violent fluct- uations in price. It is felt that by stabilizing the market and removing violent fluctuations in price, the producer of eggs will receive a much more equit- able share of the consumer's dollar. These are legitimate objec- tives which should not be torted by a few uninformed or prejudiced people. In many cases the uninformed are being used as the unsuspecting pawns of a few unscrupulous men who attempt to discredit such a plan by using every means at their disposal. Such attempts are usually motivated by the splfish inter- ests of those concerned. 0 YARNA - (Correspondent, Fred McClynaont Final Meeting The final meeting of the Varna Young People's was at- tended by 19 members and Bill Kolkman had the worship.
