Union wants DES
ban to be continued
The introduetion by Ottawa of
import quetas and a stabilization
prograni for beef is a step in the
right direction but stops far short
of meeting livestock producers'
needs and catches the Minister 0
Agriculture, Eugene Whelan
engaging in a contradition,
Walter Miller, vice-president of
the National Farmers' Union said
Wednesday.
He said a Stabilization price
based on an average return of
45.4c per pound for all steers on
the hoof is a severe short fall
from the 52c per pound Mr.
Whelan said last March that beef
feeders needed, just to break
even,
The union vice-president said,
"since last March when Mr.
Whelan led farmers to believe he
favoured a price of 52c to 55c per
pound, machinery, fuel, interest,
feed and other costs have risen
considerably." He said the
stabilization program has so
many shortcomings that beef
farmers should regard it as no
program at all and a reneging on
election promises.
The union vice-president said
he believes it will do little or
nothing to halt many producers
from being forced out of the
business. He said using a price
based on the last five year
average is totally irresponsible
as prices of the last five years
have absolutely nothing to do
with today's cost of production.
Mr. Miller accused the federal
,government of shirking its
responsibility in not establishing
a National Meat Authority
Farmers and consumers need
more than just the illusion of
stability if we are to avoid
moving from crisis to crisis and
move out of the boom and bust
cycles that have given packing
houses and retail chain stores the
opportunity to profiteer.
The union vice-president said,
"this is the responsibility of the
federal government and they
have not yet accepted it."

DES has been established in
more than a score of countries in
the world including the U.S. Food
& Drug administration, and only
a technicality in the law allows it
to be used there.
Given the size and scope of
multi-national corporations
operating in the food industry
there is a strong possibility they
will find a loophole in the
regulations or lobby to create one
that will see meat from DES
treated animals sold in Canada.
The union vice-president said
the only sure protection is a
complete ban, and Canadian
consumbers should demand this
of their government. As well, the
Canadian government should
pressure the U.S. government to
implement a total ban there.

the Museum are a pistol, sabre
and medal which date from the
Napoleonic Wars. These
historical artifacts were the
property of Colonel Arthur
Wellington Freer, who, as a
captain under the Duke of
Wellington, fought in the second
Battalion, 50th Foot Regiment at
the Battle of Waterloo.
Despite the loss of some 30,000
allied soldiers, a decisive victory
was won which ended the at-
tempted takeover of Europe by
Napoleon I of France. The vic-
tory was achieved on June 18,
1815, the date inscribed on
Colonel Freer's medal.
Following the war, Colonel
Freer was sent to Ireland as part
of the occupation forces and there
he met and married the daughter
of the Earl of Ormond. In 1831,
With grants of land being given by
the, Crown to encourage set-
tlement in Canada, Colonel Freer
received and accepted 200 acres
of land near the present village of
Warwick,
An interesting observation is
that the Colonel originally came
from Warwickshire in England
and it is quite possible that he
shared some responsibility for
naming the present village.
Shortly after his arrival, he
established a saw mill at Bear
Creek which was at that time the
only mill located west of
Kilworth.
Ironically, after his lengthy
military career, Colonel Freer
met with accidental death after.,T
being. j thrownAros his hors9;i';
Most of his family remained in
Canada and many of his ,
descendants still reside in this
area. It was his great grandson,
the late Clifford Freer of Ker-
wood, who donated the Colonial's
war memorabilia to the Museum.
A unique collection of early
glassware will also be on display
during the months of August and
September. If you have any
questions about glass items in
your possession, an invitation is
extended to attend the Museum in
September and talk with Mrs.
Huyck, an enthusiastic and
knowledgeable collector of an-
tique glass and china.
Further information on the
Museum and its services can be
obtained by calling 245-0492,
Summer visiting hours are from
1-5 p.m., Monday through
Friday; 2.5 p.m. on Sunday.

objects to any move by Ottawa to
subject Canadians to the risk of
being exposed to DES treated
meat, and believes Canada
should maintain a complete ban
on all meats from any country
that allows it to be used.
Walter Miller, vice-president of
the NFU said today in Guelph he
regretted the reports that the
federal Government was com-
promising on its position in
