Health from the CANADIAN MEDICAL ASSOCIATION -o- TV <Vieu& F Local People At National Farm Meeting The greatest need of Ontario agriculture is for long-term policies, emphasizing farm in- ‘ come, says a provincial Liberal ■spokesman. Murray Gaunt, the MPP for -Huron-Bruce and the “Liberal Party’s agricultural spokesman, told,the Legislature that unless suph ’i.pq]i&es>. arefcifprthC!omiug, quickly the agficuitural indus­ try will decline farther than it already has — and "consumers will suffer, from shortages of some products. Mr. Gaunt said for the first tirag the Conservative govern­ ment stressed--income, rather than efficiency and production, at the Vineland Agficuitural Conference last October. “Out ■ of the conference has come a six-man committee to investigate farm income,” said Mr. Gaunt, “and we Will look forward to their report in June.” “But recommendations’ must be enacted bafofe they do any good,” he said. “We will not allow this report to join all the others on government’s dusty back shelf.” Mr. Gaunt said the Milk Mar­ keting Board must change its policy before an iniquitous prac- tice of ' selling milk quotas springs up. “When a gtuota becomes a- vailable, either through the death of a farmer or the sale of his farm, that quota should go back to the board,” said Mr. Gaunt. “The board should have a system far allocating such quotas. The present policy is unfair — and can lead to all sorts of abuse. Wealthy indi­ viduals could get a massive grip on the milk industry. “They would not have to buy • a farm or equipment; all they would have to do is buy a quota that has became available.” Mr. Gaunt said the MMk Mar­ keting Board's policies and <M- .. fectives still favour the fluid milk producer too much. “The board will soon have to recognize that ‘ * technological changes have, in' some cases, greatly increased the worth of manufactured milk,” he added. The Milk Marketing Board’s statements so far, said’ Mr. Gaunt, have made it appear that some milk co-ops and small cheese factories will have little or no part in the marketing of milk in; Ontario. '■ ■r-r“These-smaller companies' and co-ops must be given a role,” he said.. “We cannot allow the board to bankrupt them 'and write them off like so much sour milk.” The Liberal agricultural spokesman said the Farm ‘Mar­ keting. Board still does not ap­ pear to understand its place— despite the heated controversies of last year. “This board must make sure that marketing boards' across the province operate within the confines of the legislation,” he said. “But I “ must protest strongly - when Bley intervene and set policy for a board.” ' “That is the job of the par­ ticular board’s elected repre­ sentatives,” he added. “The boards • became ,, a 'sham when the government, through the. Farm Marketing Board, begins" to dictate policy. Mr. Gaunt said Ontario over the years contributed the least per capita of any province to ARDA projects. “They have not realized this program’s great potential to lift same of our people out of blighted and frustrated lives,” he said. Mr. Gaunt said trading stamps should be abolished as soon as possible. “They add to the cost of food,” he said, "but they bring no real benefits to consumers and farmers.” ’ But, he paid, the i^eal root of the problem in agriculture in this province is the lack of clear, long-term policies. ‘Tor too long the affiknals at the Department of Agriculture have reminded fanmere of odd ladies at a quiltins' bee, just rocking, and patching,” he said. A man who gambles' -as, a hobby and alWays wins has be­ come what you could describe as a TV and Radio personality, having appeared with Pierre Berton, Betty Kennedy, on CTV’-s W 5, on the CBC Na­ tional News; on -radio station CKEY, on CKCO’s Scan and File 13 and numerous other programs. He is; Bruce 'Irwin. His new occupation is author, and'his first book, entitled-“The Midas Touch”, reveals his per­ fect system ' for gambling at legal casinos. • Regular readers of this col­ umn will recall that I travelled to .Europe with Mr. Irwin on a tour of casinos and watched him win consistently. I have read the book," with the exception of the one chapter I wrote, and :found his experi­ ences exciting, ‘fascinating and enchanting. Here is ' a story •which Hollywood screen writ­ ers could turn into a motion picture full of suspense. ^It’s a fast-moving book and is recommended if you have an interest in exciting non-fiction— difficult to find these diays. The second edition is 'more expensive, but worth every cent if you are planning a trip to Las Vegas, or to other parts of the world where gambling is legal. This edition reveals the system which would allow you to wiin far more than the price of the book. If you Want to get rich quick, don’t call me. But, if you want more' information concerning my trip, the book, or Bruce Irwin, write to me in care of CKCO-TV, Kitchener. The Canadian Medical Associ­ ation advises that it may be useless, or even dangerous, to treat a blood condition alone if /the underlying cause of the dis­ order is unknown. When a, doctor tells a patient his blood is JoW he usually means the haemoglobin content is below normal — that is, 'the patient is anaemic. The haemo­ globin imparts the red colour to the blood and is contained 'in the red blood cells. The func­ tion of the haemoglobin is to take up oxygen-from the air in the lungs, andzdarry it in the blood to where it is needed to support life in all the tissues of the body. j , The blood contains two dther types of cells •—- the white cells and the platelets. These cells can also be reduced by disease, producing corresponding distur­ bances of bodily function. ' There are several types of. blood cells. The job of some is to counteract infection. The job of others is only parti-ally un­ derstood, or is completely un­ known. The platelets take,, part in the process of blood-dotting and when they are low, certain types of bleeding tendency may result. All the blood cells may be in­ creased in number as well as decreased, ■ and may function poorly even though present in normal quantity. Although too few or too many blood cells of the various types produce sick­ ness, it is usually necessary to look beyond the blood to find the real cause of trouble. ;One reason the C.M.A. sug­ gests that it may be dangerous to treat a blood' condition with­ out investigating the underlying cause is seen in the following example: A case of anaemia due to iron deficiency may, in turn, be due to very slow blood loss from an ulcer or a cancer of the bowel, which is not big enough to produce any symp­ toms itself. Iron treatment will cure the anaemia, but unless the cause of blood loss is found and removed, the patient’s life will not be saved. ' ’ /■■■■' ........... ■■■■■■■■■ H.
