wish to have a negotiating com-
mittee similar to the white bean
board. It was the feeing of the
meeting that western feed wheat
coming into. Ontario Would still
be a factor in setting the price
of wheat, but they thought that
something could be done to put
western wheat on a quota basis
until our own was used up.
It was quite apparent from. re-
ports that the Ontario wheat
situation needed some looking
into: For one example, it was
reported tl- there was an •ex-
port demand for Ontario wheat
which would have paid at least
10 cents per bushel more than
our market price but the trade,
for obvious reasons. didn't do
anything about it.
Eastern counties pressed very
hard for some action on the sell-
ing of beef, but the meeting felt
that it was .not the. Federation's
place but rather that of the beef
producers to inaugurate a mar-
keting program, Everyone agreed
that beef was in a very depressed
state but couldn't agree on what
to do. The meeting was asked to
support a floor price on beef, but
to have a satisfactory floor price,
American beef would have to be
kept out, Then they would re-
taliate and we would lose our
export for surplus beef. It was
finally referred for further study.
