Act 'On Milk Problems By Mayme Wilkins Ptesident Local 335 A National Farmers Union open meeting on milk was held in *piston on June 22nd .including both District 5 and 7. The NFU has been asked to lead a movement across Ontario to do something about the devastating conditions in the, industrial milk marketing economy, This was the first in a series of meetings ' right across Ontario to determine if there is a general consensus to attack the problem. flake Sanford, Regional Co-ord- inator for Ontario, stated that in January 1975, farmers were told to increase production and by Sept- ember 1975, after offering incent- ive programs to do this, subsidies were cut by 40%. In May 1976 the quota was cut 15% and all over-quota production was penaliz- ed by $8.60 per, hundred. Walter Miller, National Vice- President stressed that the NFU policy was in support of a one pool-one price system and orderly marketing. While the OMMB is not perfect; it is the best we have at PAGE FIFTEEN the moment and we should strive to , improve it. A Royal Commission set up to study farm problems brought,Put the Task Force Report in .1970. It stated that the Dairy Subsidy should be phased out in 5 years. At that time the level of activity among farmers, was high, but now they feel they can go it alone, so the government figures it's safe to implement the Task Force Report. The Ontario Government played a major role in encouraging and expanding •milk production so now it has a responsibility to the producers to get them back on their feet. It should make an adjustment payment equal to the federal levy • and at the same time go back to the , bargaining table and bargain a More' satisfactory arrangement for farmers. Other. workers are restricted to a 10% increase and • the . industrial milk producers are suppoed to be able to carry on with a 15 - 20% decrease. • • Walter Miller asked those • as- sembled if they would be prepared to get involved and back up their demands. He received a standing majority of yes vetes. Lorne' Luther,/ president for District 5, closed the meeting. Those present from Local' 335 were Bev McNay, Mr. and Mrs. Charlie Wilkins and Lorne Luther.
