BRUCE NICHOL Un;a1\11,1°, '20r..tario. PH: 262.5626 Soil, crop meetings continue this week proposal by local that farmers of Ontario had one G.F.O. twenty years ago and the newly proposed G.F.O. would be nothing more than what they had then except with a government legislated check off of approximately two point five million dollars and more government control. District five board members expressed the hope that all farmers will decide as to what type of an organization can best solve their problems and that their decision will not be based on confusion and indoctrination. By building a farmer controlled organization farmers can control their own destiny instead of the government controlling it. Celebrate at Winchelsea By MRS.

One group is rejected At a well attended board meeting district five, Ontario Farmers Union unanimously endorsed the recent actions of the provincial board of directors, whereby the General Farm Organization proposed by the farm income committee and endorsed by the Ontario. Federation of Agriculture, was rejected. Local 345 Parkhill submitted a motion that the General Farm Organization Committee should be challenged. They expressed that if the General Farm Organization Committee are convinced that their proposal for another federated organization is the ultimate in farm organization and is the type of organization that farmers want there should be no objection on their part to have the O.F.U. proposed plan as another choice of organization be placed on the June plebiscite. Mr. Jerry Hugwka, director of district five again explained the O.F.U. proposals for One Farm Organization. Basically it would call for a strong farmer controlled organization as free as possible from government control and intervention. Financed mainly by a voluntary membership fee to accomplish this, Marketing boards would be allowed to integrate into the One Farm Organization through a democratic procedure to very much strengthen the marketing process, not weaken or do away with it, as some rival groups or marketing board officials have outlined. Another motion called for strong action to prevent farmers from being regimented into an organization, the structure of which has proven incapable in the past necessitating the formation of the farmer controlled O.F.U.
