Hemingway (Rank denotes RCAF, Mr. denotes civilian)./ plan to the use (Continued from last week) During the time the Hog producers were having their troubles with the Farm. Ppp-, ducts Marketing- Board the Poultry Producers were toying to develop a .Marketing Plan for eggs and fowl. Financing was the first pro­ blem and the Ontario Poultry Producers- developed a Market­ ing Plan somewhat on the same basffis1 as hhe original Hog Px’o- ducers Marketing plan and fin­ anced by a deduction on old hens when, they wepe marketed. This plan seemed to be pro­ gressing nicely and was ready, for printing with a vote of' Producers to follow very short­ ly. Suddenly at this point the Government legal adviser dis- RED CROSS IS ALWAYS THERE WITH YOUR HELP covered a clause which. stated that a levy could not be deduct­ ed from one product ,to finance the sale of another product. In othpr word's we couldn’t use a deduction on old hens, to sell eggs. ' ', During the next four or five. years several variations for fi­ nancing and marketing eggs were drawn up and each time some legal or other obstacle Was encountered land a vote couldn't be held, . Finally the Producers were persuaded to leave the market­ ing of eggs to .fhe -trade and draw up a promotion advertise and promote of eggs. Wonder of wonders agreed that this should be fin­ anced ,by a levy, on the old hens; It required “ah amendment to the Marketing legislation but this was no problem to Govern­ ment since the Producers had given up their plan to market the eggs. After all "advertising could, have ‘little if any effect on price and could in no way embarrass the trade. Again .in the Beef Producers organization there was very lit­ tle money available as long as they showed a marked interest in marketing cattle.. However the Government came up with an attractive financing system i you can't see a for the beans Treflan ® fop a Beef Improvement Associ­ ation under the direction of this Department of Agriculture, if Producers would just forget a- bout marketing, In the dairy industry for a great many years producers of various products, cream, cheese, consentrated and condensed milk, had more or less control of Marketing their different products. Producers of milk for fixe bottle trade and those who sold to cheese manufacturers had the strongest organizations and the producers benefited ac­ cordingly. In recent years a good deal of conflict developed between the different .organizations due to the different prices for milk according to the product that was manufactured rather than price based on quality. The Government has stepped into this situation and has ap­ pointed a Milk Marketing Commission. This Government body has full control over the negotiation of price, conditions of sale, quality controls, gath­ ering and direction of milk, While it has been- hinted that Producers will Some tome elect this Board there is no provision for this at present. For all practical punposes dairy men are , operating state farms. Their only alternative is to form a Dairy-Producers Union and be willing to take strike action to obtain the price1 for their product that they feel is necessary. In the light of this we shouldn't be too much surprised at the actions that the govern­ ment has taken against the White Bean Growers. In fact it would look as if this type of action were planned for, when Bill 86 was passed. Under terms of the earlier Marketing- legislation the Gov­ ernment had' the power to withdraw the delegation of Marketing Powers from any Marketing Board and to dis­ solve the organization and to distribute assets to the right­ ful creditors. Even this seems extreme since I doubt that the government has this power over Labour Unions. Bill 86 however gives the Government the power to take over the assets of the Producer Marketing Board and to oper­ ate the marketing plan under a Government appointed Board. This legislation was passed for a purpose. Farmers must not be in a position to raise prices. Farmers protested loud and long against Bill 86 but it was passed. When the next provin­ cial election rolled around a couple of years later the far­ mers supported the Govern­ ment as strongly as ever. .This was particularly true in South Huron where the mem­ ber not only voted for the bill but also gave, a lengthy speech in the legislature supporting it. Yet in the last Provincial elect­ ion he rolled up, I believe, the largest majority in ‘his politi­ cal career. And this in an agri­ cultural riding. A word to the wise is sufficient?

Re-engagement Bonuses OK'd For Canadian Armed Forces Recent decisions made by the Department of National De­ fence provide for bonuses to non-commissioned officers and men in the Armed Forces. The bonuses are paid in cash upon re-enlistment of service person­ nel after they have finished their initial hitch. Effective February 1, 1966, all serving men and women of the regular forces will receive $200 a year for each year for which they re-engage. If the re-engagement covers five years, the man or woman will get $1,000 as won as he or she signs on for that further term. Warrant officers and all Attention, car buyers!

Announcement of tile bonus plan was made by Hon. Paul Hellyer, ■ Minister of National Defence and the Hon. Leo CadJi- euz, associate minister on Feb­ ruary 18 of this year. Those serving current re-en­ gagements are also getting the bonus, pro-rated according to the balance of their engage­ ment. For instance, a man who re-engaged February 1, 1965 and still has four years to serve, will get an $800 bonus. For pairt-years the bonus will be pro-rated at one-twelfth of $200 for each month of eligible service.; The policy is similar to re­ engagement incentives in the armed forces of Britain and the United States, which have re­ duced turnover in personnel. An important benefit to the forces and to Canada, will be the increase in efficiency and effectiveness resulting from the retention in the services of a higher proportion of skilled, ex­ perienced men. Cost of the program is ex­ pected to fee $27,600,000 this year, and about $19,400,000 ih 1966-67. Regular interim pay increases will be granted at October 1, 1966, pending decision on final increases.
