This in turn cannot only restore respect in a stronger dollar, but help us to move ahead with boldness and con- fidence in overcoming inter- nal., differences to build a better nation for future generations. The unity of Canada can and will be strengthened by' developing new technologies. placing more emphasis on management and trade skills, creating more healthy enterprises. There opportunities will be lost. however, if there is not a realignment of power between Eastern and Western Canada. Facts tnust be faced: the West holds the economic cards and the East has the political heft. The situation, therefore. demands compromise -on the contentious issues of energy pricing and revenue sharing so that massive projects in the field of energy may proceed. For small business, living with high interest rates in 1980 has been a nightmare; and 1981 promises little, if any relief. In addition, shor- tages of skilled manpower and the excesses of govern- ment red -tape continue to restrict development.

Communion this Sunday Rev. Miner speaks at Centralia By MRS. FREO BOWDEN Rev. Stewart Miner conducted the service in the United Church Sunday morning. He based his thoughts on the teachings of Jesus in the temple. How alive are we spiritually? One can be spiritually dead if we are away from God. Paul said, Those who let Jesus come into their lives are new creatures. We can only become new Milk prices to increase Ontario dairy farmers are to receive a price increase of $3.50 per hectolitre (3.5s per Titre) for the milk they produce for table use, effec- tive February 1,1981. In announcing the in- crease in returns to producers, the Chairman of The Ontario Milk Marketing Board, Kenneth G. McKin- non; said that "to ensure that adequate milk supplies are provided in the long- term, it is vital to the whole industry that milk producers receive this increase". Mr. McKinnon noted that the total industry has been affected by rising costs and it is likely that price in- creases will occur throughout the whole system. "For this reason, he concluded, "we do not know what the final consumer price will be." Mr. McKinnon said that for several years the Board has set the price to its producers using an economic formula as a guideline. "Current information," he said. "demonstrates that milk producers' incomes are lagging and they require an immediate increase to help offset escalating costs." In giving some examples of cost increases which have occurred since the last price increase. Mr. McKinnon in- dicated. "feed costs are up seven per cent and fuel costs have risen eight and twelve percent, respectively. are projected for these two ma- jor farm inputs during the first quarter of 1981. Fer- tilizer costs are also pro- jected to increase between five and seven per cent in early 1981. These specific cost increases, combined with staggering interest rates and increasing energy costs, are adding substan- tially to the cost of product ing milk." The 3.5e per litre increase raises the farm price for raw milk in Southern On- tarioofrom 38.366 per litre to 41.86c per litre and in Northern Ontario from 39.65c to 43.15c -per litre. through the power of God.
