By MARVIN HOWE, M.P. Report from Parliament Hill In a recent broadcast over CKNX in conjunction with a colleague of mine, Mr. Tim Cooper, I tried to refute some of the accusations being made against the Conservative Party of obstructing and holding up Government legislation. Outside of the Pension Bill, which has been withdrawn three times, the Redistribution Bill, which has not been presented for debate for many weeks, the majority of the legislation pre- sented has been a revision of the legislation that we had intro- duced -- i.e., amendments to the Canadian Farm Loan Corpo- ration Act -- not the bold and imaginative legislation prom- ised. I would like to say a few riords on the Iatter piece of legislation. Not so much in I'LL BE RIGHT BACK AS SOON AS 1 PICK UP A PRESCRIPTION AT VANCE'S DRUG STORE W. R. HAMILTON OPTOMETRIST Josephine Street WINGHAM FOR APPOINTMENT Phone 357-1361 COTTAGE CHEESE criticism, but to query the ne- cessity of raising the maximum amount of money available for loan purposes from $27,000 to $55, 000. The Minister of Agriculture in introducing this legislation intimated that it would be ad- vantageous to assist the family farmers. My own experience in in the Riding of Wellington Hu- ron was that the $27, 000 was Lila Black At Shorthorn Lassie Picnic The annual Ontario Short- horn Lassie picnic was held on Saturday at Campbell Farms, Moffat, Ontario. Shorthorn Lassies present were Doreen Crawford, Glencoe, Lassie Alternate for Ontario; Janet Aitken, Acton; Charlotte Smith, Guelph, Lassie Queen for Ontario; and Lila Black of Belgrave, all representing their districts, The Presbyterian Church had a booth for noon dinners, After dinner the program started. Grant Campbell, who was host for the day introduced his fa- mily. William Sutherland of Massey Ferguson Farms, intro- duced the guest speaker, John Hayes. On behalf of the Lassies Mrs. Beardmore, Lassie president, presented Mr. Hayes with a gift. The Shorthorn Lassies had a booth in which various home made articles such as aprons, pot holders and baking was sold. Mrs. Mumford, past Lassie pre- sident, grew violets of all col- ours to sell. Tickets were sold on a quilt made and donated by Dual Purpose Shorthorn Association, with a Shorthorn design in the centre, The lucky ticket was won by S. G. Bennett, a prom- inent Shorthorn breeder. The afternoon closed with judging of three classes of cattle. John Ridkard gave final placing on a class of cows; Mac Parker gave final placing on bulls and Mrs. Beardmore gave final placing on heifers. A prize was given to high lady, man, and junior for judging for the day. quite adequate; anythinglarger would be for the purpose of assisting a large commercial operation. This indication on the part of the Government of the ap- parent lacx of money apprecia- tion is frightening. T h e $385,000 per annum rent f o r the new Department of Indus- try, the $250,00 per day, plus $25.00 per hour, payment to a lawyer to advise the commit- tee on consumer spending, the placing of Riding representa- tives on the Government pay- roll - are all a part of financial irresponsibility. Money doesn't grow on trees and you, the taxpayers of Ca- nada can be prepared to pay higher taxes to add to the al- ready highest cost of living in our history. ANKLE BROKEN IN ACCIDENT W HITECHURCH- George Grigg suffered a painful acci- dent last Thursday while un- loading logs with his employer, Gershom Johnston, at Gaunt's sawmill. One of the logs rolled onto his leg, Mr. Johnston took him to Wingham and District Hos- pital where x-rays revealed a break at the ankle, and a cast was applied.

WHITECHURCH Congratulations on the suc- cess of Chalmers Presbyterian Centennial was read by Mr- Kuiper from Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Sudds of Ruthven and from Rev, W. S. and Mrs. Sutherland, a former minister now with the Canadian Bible Society at Ot- tawa, stating he was away when the invitation to the Cen- tennial arrived and had not re- turned home before the event took place. He does not travel as much now as his health is not the best. There will be no service at Chalmers on June 21st due to the anniversaries at Langside and at the United Church. Mr. and Mrs, Tom Magof- fin left on Saturday for London where they will visit with their daughter, Mrs. Don Gray, and Mr. Gray and family and on Saturday attend their grandson's wedding in Oshawa, after which they leave to visit with relatives in British Colum- bia. Don't be careless with fire in the forest. The livelihood of thousands depends directly on the forests, so, indirectly, does the livelihood of all. Recreat- ional facilities, clear streams, wildlife depend on forest. No one enjoys •or profits from the black desolation that follows forest fires. Forest fire pre- vention is everyones responsi- bility.
