BUSHFIELD, Wingham„ Ontario, Solicitor for the Administrator LABOR MINISTER OUTLINES PLANS TO AID FARMER Labor Minister Mitchell said in the House of Commons that some indus- tries may be temporarily clothe} to make men available for the relief of manpower shortages in agriculture. Mr. Mitchell said steps are to be taken to ensure the return to farms of agricultural workers seasonally al- lowed to take other employment.. The use of prisoners of war on the farms was being explored, b.y.. the Government and arrangements were being planned to utilize the services of Japanese and treaty Indians, • The minister also referred to a plan of providing transportation for fartn labor from one province to another, to ensure "absolute mobility." Other sources of farm labor to be explored include the recruiting and training of women for driving farm equipment, and use of civilian intern- ees and men discharged from the arm- ed forces, "The national farm labor policy of Office girl wanted for Textile plant on Lake Huron in Boxed l military and needed civilian purposes, Labour status Cate,, Selective Service Walkerton, County„ Spinning yarns for gory A. pp y to ationa Ontar io. 1948 calls for the closest coordination of the Federal and Provincial Depart- ments -21 Agriculture, other Vecleral and Provincial Departments, national and local farm organizations, and the co-operation of citizens in general," the minister said. Mr. Mitchell outlined steps already. taken with the aim of stabilizing em- ployment in agriculture, These in- cluded freezing of farm labor, provis- ion for postponement of compulsory military service for essential agricul- tural workers, and action toward uni- form application of the regulations by mobilization boards, Ontario a Dominion-Provincial plan for enlisting men, women and students from urban centres had been in operation for three years on a d.ol- lar-for-dollar basis. Last year a num- ber of other provinces had entered a similar agreement. "This Dominion-Provincial co-oper- ative plan will be expanded and furth- er developed this year in all prov- inces," Mr. Mitchell said. "Already conferences to this end have been con- ducted. • STANDING OF SCHOOL IN STAMP SALES Some Huron County Schools Have Outstanding Performance In War Savings The honour of being in frist place in Huron County for War Savings Stamp sales through schools, goes to Union School Section NuMber 2, Hul- lett Township, at which Mrs, Elsa Smith is teacher, having sold an aver- age of $5.29 for each pupils from the period September 1st to December 31st, 1942.

APPEAL TO FORCE BY-ELECTION LOST If Successful Would Also Have Affected Huron Bruce 11.1.1.0*•1, The Supreme Court of Canada last week dismissed the appeal of William Temple, of Toronto, who was seek- ing a writ of mandamus to compel the holding of a provincial by-election in Toronto High Park constituency. The court did not call .on C. R. Magone of the Ontario Attorney-Gen- eral's Department who was opposing the appeal, but dismissed the case after hearing F. A. Brewin, of To- ronto, present the case for Mr. Temple. Chief Justice Sir Lyman Duff said the court's reason would be given later, That constituency was since vacant the death of the former member, W. A. Baird,' in 1940, For Mr, Temple it was argued that Section 34 of the Ontario Legislative Assembly Act places on Mr. Bummer the duty of is- suing a writ when a seat is vacant for three months. If the appeal had. been successful it would also have affected Huron - Bruce riding, which has also been vacant since time -death of Charles A.
