He said that many, including some ministers would like to change the 'Image .of God' and bring in.a. new morality. He said that in the decade of the sixties the tendency was to stress the need for a new image as shown in Bishop Robinson's book 'Honest to God' and in other books of the period. He said, now that we are in the seventies we find that there is a trend back to the Bible to discover the real image of God. This is .4 good thing but it is important for Church people to know God and make Him known.

The Rural Learning Association, an organization concerned with leadership training for rural people, held a Marketing Seminar at Geneva Park, Lake Couchiching, recently to examine the case for supply management. The 90 delegates heard viewpoints from producers, processors, and consumers. Representatives of the food retailing segment of the industry were invited, but wouldn't come. Lines were quickly drawn between opponents and proponents of supply management. Leading off the four-day program, Ontario Federation of Agriculture president Gordon Hill claimed that supply management is a fact of life in the modern business world. "Cut- throat competition just doesn't work," he said. "It's murder on profits." Mr. Hill told the delegates that supply management can give farmers more security by, giving prices more stability. Lakefield farmer, Gerald Tedford, chairman of the Ontario Chicken Broiler Growers' Marketing Board, also supported the concept of supply management. Farmers must use it to win back control of their industry, he said. The broiler board has power to set both the amount and the price of broilers marketed in Ontario. Mr, Charles Gracey of the Canadian Cattlemen's Association, and Mrs. Maryon Brechin of the Consumers' Association of Canada, argued the case against supply management. "Supply management precludes all other approaches to the resolution of production and marketing problems," Mr. Gracey said. "Cattlemen believe that it would be more useful to keep the options open." He advocated a free market system based on better market information and forecasts for the beef industry. Mrs. Brechin took a wider approach. She argued that supply management would, in the long run, be ineffective in raising farm income,damage the economic welfare of the con- sumer, and prejudice Canada's national security. She said that farmers would help themselves more by developing sales opportunities and new products, and by im- proving quality, Whether or not any of the 90 delegates changed their minds on the issue of supply management, it was impossible to tell. But what became clear to all, was that supply management for one farm commodity affects more than that segment of the farm economy. It affects other commodities, processors, retailers, consumers, the Canadian economy and, in the final analysis, the international economy. Hear resolutions at Huron F of A Resolutions were the order of the evening of the recent directors meeting of the Huron Federation of Agriculture. Directors endorsed a resolution from the Essex federation asking for immediate action from the ISM program development committee, two resolutions from milk producers in the county (1) for higher milk price for in- dustrial milk during the winter months when costs are higher and (2) for the Ontario milk marketing board to press for a 50c increase in industrial milk, A resolution from Turnberry federation asking for automatic retest before quality penalty be deducted when milk bacteria rises above 100 thousand was also passed. A resolution originating from Usborne township on an in- vestigation of the Ontario Hydro offices for improvement of ef- ficiency during storms was also passed. In other business it was noted that OFA has adopted an idea sparked by Huron County Federation on protest letters on beef importation from Oceania, this same letter will be sent to all individual service members of OFA for their support. Jim Arnold Agricultural engineer for Huron spoke on service supplied by his depart- ment in 4 categories, Structure, Drainage Work, Economic. Analysis, Pollution Abatement.

It's a question many people in the agricultural in- dustry are asking themselves these days. Controlled production — better known to farmers as supply management — has been around a long time. The 1935 Wheat Board Act set up a kind of supply management system. But it wasn't until egg producers in Quebec set up an 2-ROADS BAD? ? ? SO WHAT ! ! !
