What did Please turn to page 22 WI appear on Act Fast Members of Lucan W.I. participated in the Act Fact C.F.P.L. T.V. program last Monday evening. As their main interest at the present time is the Sunshine Club this was emphasized as the project for which the money would be used. Many members of this senior citizen's club attended. The weather was stormy and a St. Marys group, which should also have attended, were unable to travel owing to the heavy snowfall. The Lucan people were asked to take their place, thereby taping two programs instead of one. The Lions Club of Lucan chartered a bus to take the people to the T.V. Station which was appreciated, especially when the weather was so bad. The W.I. president, Mrs. Frances Saward gave the commentaries and Mrs. M. H. Hodgins and Mrs. W. C. Tupling acted the charades. Mrs. Frank Hardy and Mrs. Earl Young were the winners of the draws.

The problems of farm income will not be solved within the context of free enterprise, a mainly farm audience was told in Lucan Monday night. Donald C. MacDonald, MPP for York South, and former leader of the New Democratic Party in Ontario spoke to over 80 people in the Legion Hall. He said agriculture hasn't the strength to compete in the market place. He explainea that governments have failed to grapple with the problems faced by agriculture by using such terms as deficiency payments, emergency floor prices and "incentive incomes." Mr. MacDonald said the latter item was "lost" in the Farm Income Committee Report. MacDonald said there is a place for farmers on the NDP team. "This is a People's Party and the Party of the 1970's." He went on to say, "Our farm policy will be shaped by farmers. Once a policy is set, it's a committment for the whole party." The former NDP leader also said, "One of the best provincial governments we have ever had was in 1919 when the UFO party was in power." In addition to farm income difficulties, Mr. MacDonald outlined the implications of the Ontario government's recent 25% rebate of local property taxes to farmers. He said the immediate motivation was to "help the Tory party on the eve of an election." He emphasized that the government's move "does nothing to get at the basic inequities in the tax structure which the farmers have protested for so long." "There was a time when farmers could elect a government, and did," Mr. MacDonald said, but he, warned that "that day has gone," He asked his audience to take a strong look at who is the natural political ally of the farmer. He maintained that it is the trade unionist. During a sharp question period, one member of the audience disagreed with Mr. MacDonald's assessment that the trade unionist was an ally of the farmer, Instead the questioner saw a bask division of interest between the two groups, Mr. — you will have to attend to find out what it's all about.
