Our local paper's editor and town

expansion and its many problems.
One that was never mentioned was
the emergency call that can come
from any part of the town. The one
that concerns us is fire, but others
have happened, Many new people
have moved into town, new streets
and district have sprung up, hence
some •confusion in getting proper
direction to the source of a fire
call.

The President of the American
Farm Bureau Federation, Charles
B. Schuman, stated last April,. "It
is ,natural for many politicians to
favour programmes which put them
in 'the position of dispensing fa-
vours to- farmers. The lawmakers,
refuse to face the fast that there
is no way to legislate prosPerity
into agriculture . - or they wish
to keep farmers dependent on
political action for a large pertimr
of their Income."
Is this what is happening in
Canada? Are Canadian farmers
dependent on government action
for a great portion of their in-
come? Are we headed in the
right -direction with the govern-
ment demanding on one hand . .
dishing out a few favours, on the
other . . and in between, trying
to keep peace with all concerned
by shuffling legislation around so
that 'confusion' clouds the real
issues?
These are questions that farm-
ers are concerned with. When will
they get the answers?

The regular monthly meeting of
the firemen was held on the even-
ing of December 28th. All members
were present. All 'committees made
their reports -of activities for the
month. During the holiday season
the upper floor -and club room of
the fire hall was completely re-
finished. It is hoped that clubs us-
ing the hall for their own various
meetings will realize the amount of
work that goes into keeping a hall
of this size in decent she*. We are
proud of that hall-one of the best
--and will try to keep it that way,
even though it is a losing game
when people tramp through it with
wet footwear, etc,
On January 2nd, 1960, a call to
Wroxeter to the home of Mrs.'
Harry Dane was the first fire of
the New Year. Damage by fire was
not too extensive but house wiring
and smoke created a considerable
amount.
swamped 'with glorious explanation
of how to clear the farm situation,
and place agriculture on a par with
other segments of Canadian So-
iety?
Farmers have demanded and re-
ceived astounding government
controls over their affairs. To
achieve freedom of exploitation
through vertical integration.., un-
fair pricing of food products.. In-
.discriminate importation of food-
stuffs, that would jeopardize the
Canadian farm price structure.
It has been like a giant snowball
that grew beyond all expectations,
the good intentions clouded by
restrictions placed on agriculture
by vote catching politicians.
Why so much government con-
trol? Why should the farmer have
to bend down every time some
government agency cracks the
'whip'? There are many clear
thinking farmers who are equally
concerned with the controls that
have been 'placed in the govern-
ment's hands. They believe 'that
the restrictions placed on Canad-
ian agriculture, by elected re-
presentatives, are not always con-
ducive to good government, or too
good agriculture.
Agricultural leaders in Canada
and the United States, have this
past year, made statements per-
inent to a decrease of government
control over agriculture. It is
every farmers' right to not only
know what the, government is
doing, but why it is doing it, and
who Is allowing it. Consider a
statement from Queen's Park a
few weeks ago, that the Ontario
Farm Products Marketing Board
is going to lake active interest hi
the operation of the various °mar-
keting plans, conducted under the
Ontario Farm Products Marketing
Act, This is all well and good, pro-
wilingthe government does not
'twist' the meaning "Active In-
terest", into "More. Active Con-
Itrod",
The U.S. Secretary of Agricul-
ture, Ezra Benson, made these
statements -during the year.
"Government should see to it
that our economy is kept reason-
ably fluid and not loaded down
with -controls and regidientation.
