We all know it is a hard job' but Dr. MacEachern says. it is still not too late. 1 have this on tape in much greater detail so if anyone is interested you may contact me. personally, just call 231-3466, This man has been severely reprimanded- by Government for speaking out against inflationary policies of our Government even though he is employed by Government. and commonly held attitudes that no longer are valid still exists. Dr. MacEachern reminded us that 42 percent of all activities in the economy of Canada is created by Agriculture. The farmer purchases 3 billion dollars worth of inputs, selling their products to feed manufacturers, processors and so on, are the main com- ponents in our economies ac- tivities in Canada, We have a difficult time to understand this because we cannot understand the consumer spends 17 to 18 percent of their expenditures on food when it should be 42 percent. Well we simply want to find out where the money the consumer spends and the producer goes to. Income tax returns indicate farmers and pensioners are among the lowest class income ($5200.00) This is only those who pay tax, self employed businessmen are in the $10,000,000 bracket, govern- ment employees $8000, this is a question of priority, which is the most valuable, Throughout his entire speech the theme seemed to stress how terribly overserviced our country is, and if this keeps on as is, it is predicted everyone will be em- ployed in the service Industries in Canada in the not too distant future, of course the essential of life is food and there will be no one to grow it, unless more Three members of the Zurich Local of the National Farmers Union attended the NFU's thirt; annual convention in Winnipeg recently, They were president Lloyd Willer t, secretary Mrs, Ursula Regier anti Joe Miller. One of the top.. speakers at the convention was. Dr. Gordon MacEachren, president of the Economic Council of Cariade. Following are some of the highlights of Dr, MacEachren's address as composed by president Lloyd Willett He stressed the importance of Valuation Day, said it should have been done a year ago and if not done as soon as possible could ruin the family farm five years . . DIFFERENT SIZE SNOOPIES - Buying a small Snoopy dog for their brother started good luck for a couple of Crediton area girls. Terry Lynn and Tammy Lee Witherspoon are shown with the large Snoopy they won shortly before Christmas at a draw at Beavers Hardware in Exeter, T-A photo reacned 15 percent, some provinces 30 percent, some pountries over 5() percent on an average daily basis 36 farms closed every evening, much faster than the U.S. Althokh they have a bigger farm base, Most changes have been encouraged as inevitable for a road to a better future, but evidence is brought to bear that this is just not so. The cause is said to be technological change in society, specialization economics of scale, some of these things might be true but the more ef- fective changes were determined in large part by implicit or ex- plicit private and public policy felt to be in the national interests from now. He also stated farm problems related to the economy the way Canada has constructed itself economically, lie stated farm prices have improved but there are still many Auction sales especially in k, astern Canada and the same old story "what goes up must come down", Dr. MacEachren went on to explain many things about depopulating rural Canada, farm policies set up by outside interests other than farming, the E,G.Industrial Food Complex. He pointed out many people still suffer from malnutrition and $5p00,000.00 worth of pet foods were still eaten by humans in a country of plenty. He said the decline in the farms population in the last five years To enlarge Huron riding The federal riding of Huron is in for a few changes if recom- mendations of the Federal Electoral Boundaries Com- mission for Ontario are adopted. The Commission, has proposed that the riding of Huron be enlarged to include three municipalities from Middlesex and six from Perth. These are the townships of East and West Williams and the town of Parkhill from Middlesex. From Perth will be added the townships of Blanshard, Fullerton and Hib- bert and the towns of St. Marys and Mitchell. The change would raise the population of the riding from approximately 59,000 to 74,000 bringing it much closer to the desired population balance of 84,649. Masons elect slate Ross Kercher, RR 2, Hensall, was installed as first principal of Malloch Chapter No. 66, Royal Arch Masons at Seaforth, He succeeds Jack Lavender of Hensall. Other officers: Orville G. Oke, Seaforth, second principal; Ronald Littleton, Kippen, third principal; Rev. J. Clifford Britton, Hensall, secretary; Willian J.F. Bell, Hensel], master of ceremonies; Earl Campbell, Hensall, treasurer; Robert Newnham, Seaforth, principal sojourner; Elmer Townsend, Seaforth, senior sojourner; William Stauttener, Clinton, junior sojourner; Keith Sharp, RR 2, Seaforth; James Doig, RR 4, Seaforth; Elgin McKinley, Zurich; and Austin Matheson, Clinton, veilsmen; and David lylacLean, Seaforth, tylere In addition, Conservative MP for the riding, Robert McKinley told the T-A that he hopes to have the name of the riding changed to Huron-Middlesex-Perth to in- clude all new and existing areas of the riding. He said he didn't know whether this could be accomplished simply by his personal sub- mission to the Commission, but if not, it can be done by a private member's bill to the House of Commons. Mr. McKinley said he was "certainly pleased with the area they have added. They have a regard for similarity in area and thinking," he said. "They nave rounded out what was a hollow in the centre of the riding". Before the changes become official there will be formal hearings and the commission will submit its proposals to the Commons where MP's may request changes. A hearing will also be held on the proposed changes, in London. February 13, at 9:30 a.m. in the UWO faculty of law building. As far as certain of the Perth municipalities are concerned the proposals are a return to the arrangement that existed for several years. At that time the then riding of Huron Perth in- cluded Mitchell, Fullerton, Logan and Hibbert. After 1952 only Hibbert remained and it too reverted to Perth riding following the redistribution of 1966. Ridings must be arranged with populations of 84,649, This total may be increased or decreased 25 percent to maximums and minimums of 105,811, and 63,487 subject to the presence of special factors such as area, shape or accessibility..
