More than MeMbers of the Huron Federation of Agriculture approved a new constitution for the organization at its November meeting held in Clinton, The new rules were approved in a unanimous vote, after considerable discussion and "We have certainly not always been in agreement but I respect them all as gentlemen. We have solved some problems and created others. The council of the future must be active and progressive. Again, I thank you Mr. Forrest spoke on behalf of Bert Branderhorst who was unable to be at the meeting. Trustee Michael Connolly, in his speech, said it has been a pleasure for him to be the representative on the school board (separate school) for the' area. He outlined the two-year history of the board which began from' the single school board administered by the board members themselves to a larger system directed by the board but administered by professional educators. Mr. Connolly spoke highly of John Vintar, the Superintendent of Education for the Board and also Joseph Tokar, the Assistant Superintendent of Education who are doing an excellent job of guiding the Board. He praised Jack Lane, Business Administrator, who has proven very efficient. He compliniented Ed Rowland who was hired as' assessment commissioner and has obtained $730,000. of new assessment throughout Huron and Perth. As a member of the finance committee, he stated the business operation of the board was nearly $2,000,000. He said, "For this reason, we have instituted a data processing system which provides us with a detailed breakdown of our spending and a monthly balance sheet so we can operate in accordance •with our budget. Each board member receives a copy of this information so he is familiar with every aspect of operation and spending," Mrs. James said she would qualify for the election. John Lansink said he did not think he would stand for election but would think it over. twice the cost of the Kingston construction would thus bi recovered in the first year. The minister admitted consideration has been given to consolidate military and air traffic control construction and approval of several amendments. A Committee composed of Phil Durand, Bob Allen, Charlie Rau, Doug Fortune, John Stafford and Mery Smith brought in the recommended constitution, Changes were necessitated when the organization switched last year from a basis of township levy to individual membership. The new constitution calls for new objectives for the organization. The purpose of the group is to co-ordinate the efforts of agricultural organizations and the different branches of agriculture within the county; to act as the county unit of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture and to co-operate with similar organizations across the province in furthering the interest of farmers; and to assist in formulating and promoting county, provincial, national and international agricultural policies to meet changing economic and social conditions. Membership in the Federation is now open to all Individual Service Members in the county; all township federations ,within the county; agricultural commodity organizations and farmer owned co-operative enterprises conducting business within the county. Changes in the makeup of the board of directors of the Federation are included in the , new constitution. They are: (1) Each member organization shall said the government of Prince Edward Island has asked that Sumnienide be used for that purpose. Both proposals will be given consideration When the time conies, he said. be entitled to elect representatives to the county board of directors annually as follows: Local groups of Individual Service Members may send two members (minimum of 36 individual service members to form a local); township federations may, send two members each; commodity groups, one each; ce-operatives, one member each; and educational organizations, one member each, Concern was expressed by several members present that the new board of directors would exclude participation by the general membership in county meeting. They said they felt such a move would mean the end of activity at the county level involving ISM's. The committee that brought in the new constitution explained that the county meetings could still have a large representative group of up to 70 or 80 persons if all members of the board of directors came to all meetings. This they felt, would also stimulate activity in locals or township groups where the individual farmer would have a stronger voice because the size of meetings would be reduced, An amendment was proposed and accepted which called for four general meetings of all ISM's per year. This, it was felt, would guarantee participation on the county level to all members. problem of education taxes on property. In response to a ea rnPai gqr gr„.1 remSeyal ,of these t isi t'thi ch!lere?, t ter provincial government granted farmers a 25 percent rebate on property taxes, a rebate that'll mean $20 million to Ontario farmers this year. Said Hill, "This convention will tell us where we go from here as far as education taxes are concerned. It will decide how we continue pressing government with our demands, It is quite possible that the delegates will resolve to continue tax withholding action."
