Vote Sought
On Hog Plan
Theodore Parker, R.R, 1, Sebring-
ville, is circulating another petition in
his- battle with Ontario Hog Produc
ers Marketing Board this time de
manding Government controls on hog
marketing be wiped out.
The petition^also calls for a Govern
ment-supervised secret ballot of the
hog producers on the question “at
once.”
A September 5th return date has
been suggested in a covering mes
sage with the petitions.
In it he says "it is about time we
farmers who want freedom from com
pulsion began to organize.”
His letter is based on a meeting be
tween Ontario Packers' Council and
Ontario Hog Producers’ Marketing
Board at which the marketing board
proposed Ontario -Hog Producers’ Co
operative set up assembly points for
hogs in Ontario and all direct deliver
ies of hogs to plants by commercial
truckers cease.
Hogs would lose poundage waiting
at such points, Mr. Parker contends,
and the farmer would take the loss.
