RESOLUTE "NO"
The vote of members at the
curling club, which took place
last week but for which the bal-
lots were not counted until Mon-
day night, went 183-82 for the
"no" side. The club was voting
on a dining lounge operation six
days a week.
Under the licence board regu-
lations, the club had to approve
the dining lounge setup before
it could establish any other type
of operation, including a cock-
tail lounge, under which serving
might have been limited to less
days.
The curling club vote was
influenced, to some degree at
least, by a rather heated contro-
versy over the conduct of the
question.

Harding, Elmer Kaufman; Mor-
ris, Albert Bacon, R.H. Coultes;

Willits.
These directors meet "within
15 days," according to aclause
in the constitution, to elect
from among themselves a pre-
sident, vice-president and se-
cretary-treasurer. Albert Ba-
con, Morris township, has been
president.
The constitution, adopted to-
day after presentation clause
by clause by James Boynton,
provincial secretary, provides
that the association "shall not
be, nor become, a party poli-
tical organization, nor shall the
association, nor any committee
thereof, discuss any matter
from a party political point
of view."
There was some discussion
of the membership proviso of
persons "actively engaged in
production of hogs." At least,
it was agreed, it does not mean
processors.
The constitution provides that
"one director shall be nomi-
nated by each township and
elected by the county annual
meeting, or one director will
be nominated and elected by the
county annual meeting for each
township which fails to have at
least three members in atten-
dance. In addition, three dir-
ectors at large shall be elected
by the county to complete the
board of directors."
Don Graham, agricultural re-
presentative in Brant, addres-
sed the meeting on the subject
of hog feeding. He reported
more corn being grown all the
time in Brant, and Mr. Miles
later said the same about Huron.
Nominees for committeemen
were called upon in the order
of their names on the board,
to identify themselves in spee-
ches not exceeding a minute.
Among the comments:
R.P. Allan, Tuckersmith: "I
am in favor of organized mar-
keting, and having hogs sold
through an organized body to
the highest bidder. Farmers
have to stick together."
Alex. McGregor, Tucker-
smith: "I am well satisfied with
the present system of market-
ing, and right behind it."
Elmer Ireland, East Wawa-
nosh: "I am behind the marke-
ting plan, and my reason for
being behind it 100% is that
hogs are higher in Ontario than
any place else in Canada, so
it must be doing a good job."
John Duncan, Usborne: "I
am not altogether opposed to
the board, but I think there
is a lot to be done. I do not
agree with price fluctuations or
a compulsory system. It seemed
to go along all right before
with little fluctuation."
Gordon Wright, Howick: "I
am not 100% in favor of the
marketing board the way it is
set up. I am against the com-
pulsory part."
Milford Prouty, Exeter: "I
am in favor of co-operation,
but not compulsory co-opera-
tion. I feel if this board was
doing the job it should do, it
should not be afraid of compe-
tition."
Melvin Greb, Stephen: "I am
strong for free enterprise, and
I think if the marketing oard
stays in, it will be the end
of the small producer in On-
tario."
C.R. Coultes, Belgrave: "I
am opposed to the compulsory
part of the marketing scheme
until such time as we can have
a plebiscite on it."
James Doig, Tuckersmith: "I
The death occurred on Feb-
ruary 1, at the home of his
daughter, Mrs. Eldon Young,
Lucan, of Henry Belling, in
his 90th year. Although in failing
health for some time, his death
came as a shock to his family
and friends.
Mr. Belling was the son of
the late John and DorotheaBel-
ling, pioneers of McGillivray
township. He farmed on the
homestead west of Greenway all
his life until forced to retire
only a few years ago.
He took a great interest in
the work of his church, having
served on many of the church
boards of the Methodist church
and later the United church at
Greenway and at the time of
his death was honorary elder,
an honor bestowed upon him in
1954.
His interest in municipal life
won for him the office of ree-
ve ship in McGillivray from 1925
to 1928 and again in 1931 and
1934.
Surviving are two sons and
two daughters, Manford of Port
Huron, Mich., Robert, Exeter,
Vera (Mrs. Arthur Brophey)
Parkhill; and Dorothy (Mrs.
Eldon Young) Lucan, also eleven
grandchildren, fifteen great
grandchildren, and four great
great grandchildren. His wife,
the late Phoebe Horner and a
grandson, Sergeant Burton Bro-
phey predeceased him in 1945.
Funeral services were held
from the M. Box & Son Funeral
Home, Parkhill, on Feb. 4 with
his minister, Rev. C.A. Brit-
tain officiating.
Flowerbearers were grand-
sons of the deceased and pall-
bearers were Elmer Shepherd,

and Manuel Curts. Interment
was in Parkhill cemetery.

as to their responsibilities to
the democratic way of life that
we enjoy in this country today,
not as a right, but as a privir
lege.
The result of the vote taken
in Exeter this week is not se
important as is the effort which
was put into it by the citizens
of Exeter of the various groups
who are In the so called re-
sponsible groups of citizens in
the senior, municipal, prefes-
sional, business and clergy
classifications.
When one reads of the deplor,
able conditions in NorthernOn-
tario today one cannot help but
realize that this is only another
Inroad into the way of life which
we enjoy by subversive en-
gineered groups who are not in-
terested in the peaceful co-
existence enjoyed in a true
democracy.
This situation is no more in-
sidious than the condition which
existed in Exeter the past week
when groups including some of
the clergy who owe their own
freedom of speech and other
priyileges to democracy, dis-
played more enthusiasm and
effort in an issue, which no one
will argue is not important to
some personal beliefs, but is
only a drop in the bucket com-
pared-to the question of govern-
ment by municipal, provincial
and federal bodies which are the
foundations of our democratic
way of life which we all enjoy
but to which way of life some
seem to have a distorted view
as to their responsibilities.
In other words what I would
like to say is that it is a pity
that there are responsible per-
sons amongst our citizens who
would work themselves to the
ground on the question of the
vote of the past week and yet
when it comes to exerting them-
selves to the same extent on
the question of exercising the
franchise on a vote for govern-
ment by the people through the
franchise system they go back
into their holes and do not .UP.

In closing, might t say, that
if yon consider publishing this
letter I only hope that it will
drive those to whom it is dtrect-

their Political beliefs may be,
