T-A photo Canadians must stick to guns, but not react with anger "Canadians should not react in anger to the punitive quotas on beef and pork imposed by the United States this weekend. But neither should Canada back down and open its borders to a flood of U.S. beef, eggs and turkey," Gordon Hill, president of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture, stated this morning. "The Canadian government must stick to its guns or Canadian trade policy will be set in the United States from now on," Hill says. "This is a time for Canadian meat producers to stick together." The United States market is 10 times as big as Canada's. A small percentage of U.S. production is large enough to swamp the Canadian market. Even a large percentage of Canadian production would have little effect on the large U.S. market, Hill points out. Yet, Canada's quota on live cattle imports from the United States was more generous. It is equal to the full five-year average of imports from 1969-73. In return the U.S. slashed imports of Canadian cattle and dressed beef to a small per- centage of Canada's normal exports. Although Canada imposed no quota on hog imports from the U.S., that country cut Canadian hog imports nearly in half. "U.S. cattle build-up was ac- celerated by the price freeze and the U.S, government wants Canadians to pay for its mistake:" Hill says. U,S, cattlemen held back cattle in large number until the price freeze was removed in Sep- tember 1973 and then rushed to market heavier cattle, thus putting even more beef on supermarket shelves. In addition, per capita beef consumption in the U.S. in 1973 fell by six pounds, an amount of meat equivalent to ap- proximately two million head of cattle or approximately 70 per cent of total annual Canadian slaughter. In Canada, per capita consumption fell by only one pound in 1973. U.S. cattlemen would like to market their *surplus in Canada at higher Canadian prices. However, Hill points out this must not be done; their surplus would drive Canadian prices way down. Hill charges that the U.S. wants to use the Canadian market as a dumping ground and have Canadian farmers pay for the price-freeze mistake. The Canadian position is that Canada absorbed an abnormal number of U.S. cattle in 1973, particularly in the last quarter when the Canadian market ab- sorbed 153,000 head of the U.S. backlog built up because U.S. producers withheld cattle from market during the summer of 1973. "Now Canada is being asked to help even more by having her exports slashed drastically," Hill says.

SAVEWAY MONEY SAVERS Mon. - Thurs. 8:30 - 6:00 Friday 8t30 - 9:00 To choose Huron site Directors of the Ontario Plowmen's Association are ex- pected to make a decision within a week as to the site of the 1970 International Plowing Match which will be held in Huron County. A delegation of direCtors headed by E,A, Starr, president of the OPA toured four sites in Huron Tuesday along with other provincial directors and representatives from Huron county. Included on the agenda were visits to two farms in the southern end of Huron. The first stop for directors was at the Bill Morley farm near Whalen Cor- ners. Next came a visit to the farm of Allan Walper located in Stephen township, just south-east of Grand Bend. After a stopover in Grand Bend for dinner the delegation proceeded on to the Glanville farm near Seaferth and Jim Armstrong's farm, near Wingham, Armstrong is the Huron representative on the Ontario Plowmen's Association. To continue land use plan As long as industry dictates its own location in the province, too much fertile land will be taken out of food production, Gordon Hill, president, told the annual convention of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture in Hamilton on November 25. Once a factory site has been chosen, supportive services - power transmission and pipelines, homes, service high- ways and recreational facilities - must develop close by, Hill pointed out. There is some choice of which farmland will be taken for these developments, but the choice is narrow, Hill said, "If the people of Ontario allowa steel mill to be built on the north shore of Lake Erie, we know the general area where all other necessary services will be provided. "Instead we should be able to say to a steel mill: 'Locate in a less developed, less congested area where land and climate are less suitable for food production.' Then the choice on where to locate supportive services would be much wider. "As long as industry dictates its own location, choices for farmers are limited and farms will suffer." Hill said the OFA will continue its crusade for rational land use" planning and urged the 500 far- mer-delegates to get involved in local planning issues. However, he pointed out farmers must be compensated for land frozen into agriculture. Hill told the meeting that starvation is an affront to far- mers who know it need not be as widespread and prevalent as it is today. He urged the Canadian government to make available funds to help Canadian farmers share their talents with farmers in developing countries. "Many ingenious Canadian farmers have the skill to make do, invent, fabricate and make work whatever is at hand. "These are the people the Canadian government must help to share their talents with far- mers in developing nations - not woolly-headed ivory tower scientists - but practical farmers who make things work." Hill warned politicians and other detractors riot to try to dismantle farm marketing legislation. "Fairness and equality in the market place do not just happen. They are the results of equal bargaining power," Hill pointed out. "Farmers know well the results of unequal bargaining power between a large number of small sellers versus a few large buyers. We have lived with the results for generations, "Our answer has been to develop marketing boards - producer-controlled marketing boards- and, by-and-large, they have served well." Hill said the boards have served consumers too, by providing at all times, adequate Supplies of high-quality food at prices that were fair in relation to production costs.
