one immediate and pressing
concern Of the farming

He explains, "Current
farm practices require large

farmers and a majovincrease
in funds for , Farm Credit
Corporation.
John Van Beers, second
vice President of the Huron.
County Federation of
Agriculture, - says high
interest rates are going to
slow down the whole
economy. All farmers are
interested in is paying off
debts, not expanding or
improving buildings.'
Mr. Van Beers suggests an
idea the government should
adopt to fight high interest
rates. ,„He says, "When
farmers retire or sell out,
they should be encouraged to,
invest their money into Farm
Credit Corporation and
thereby not pay capital gains
tax. This system would use
Collodion money to help
Canadian people."
