Dear Mr. Riddell, We refer to your letter dated March 21st concerning our announcement that we planned to discontinue ser- vice at our part-time offices in Crediton and Dashwood in favour of adding more resources. in terms o[ numbers of personnel and specialised expertise in the area service centre at Exeter. After meeting with members of both com- munities and hearing their representations, we reviewed the feasibility of continuing our presence on some lesser basis and we were pleased to advise all customers that we would continue. In Dashwood we will offer service on Tuesdays and Thursdays and in Crediton on Wednesdays.

I am most pleased that you retained the service in both Dashwood and Crediton, even though the banks will be open- ed fewer days of the week. Banks have always been one of the corner posts of every community and when such pillars are knocked down the community even- tually falls and passes into oblivion. We have witnessed enough ghost towns in our generation and are cognizant of towns and villages that once existed prior to our time and I would hate to think that the trend towards large and larger urban centres will con- tinue at the rate that it has in the past.

The Ontario Federation of Agriculture is only one of the recognized farm organiza- tions in Ontario. As milk pro- ducers we have the right to join or not to join the Ontario Federation of Agriculture on a direct membership basis. Large numbers of farmers choose not to join the Ontario Federation of Agriculture because they feel that the On- tario Federation of Agriculture's policy of accep- ting money from, 'for exam- ple; the United Co-operatives of Ontario and similar groups leaves them with important unanswered questions. Who forms the Ontario Federation of Agriculture's policy? Does the Ontario Federation of Agriculture represent pro- ducers or processors? The Ontario Federation of Agriculture also accepts money from the Ontario Cat- tlemen's Association. This association has and is by every possible means , resisting any form of orderly marketing and supply management. If the Ontario Milk Marketing Board was to become a member of the On- tario Federation of Agriculture, itn't it logical to assume there will be, among the directors a basic conflict: supply management verses the so called "free market system"? We as milk producers want our licence fees to be used for the • arketing of our product within the system we have had and continue to support. Would the interests of On- tario milk producers not be better served if our elected members on the Ontario Milk Marketing Board continued to give their full attention to the marketing of milk? We sub- mit that any direct involve- ment by elected directors of the Ontario Milk Marketing Board in the Ontario Federa- tion of Agriculture or any general farm organization will reduce the competency of the board.

THE LOWEST OR ANY TENDER NOT NECESSARILY ACCEPTED Farrners Union, we strongly support the policy of orderly marketing and supply management for all agriculture commodities. A decision by the Ontario Milk Marketing Board to become a member of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture does nothing to. support our policy or the policy of the On- tario Milk Marketing Board. In fact it probably would have the affect of weakening the -grass roots voice of all general faun organizations, and this would include the voice of the Ontario Federa- tion of Agriculture. As concerned milk pro- ducers and members of the National Farmers Union, we believe that it our right to join or refuse to join any organiza- tion. We ask that the Ontario Milk Marketing Board pro- tect this right. We trust that all Ontario milk producers will inform themselves rogardinr: this proposal. You must decide how you want your money to be spent. 'Phis proposal is on the agenda for all the Regional Milk Committee Meetings taking place this month and in early April. If you do not make your elected 'directors aware that you are not in agreement with the pro- posal do not be surprised where your money will be spent.

"It's quiet out there because they like it," she said. The former cabinet minister didn't point to any budget specifics, but noted finance minister Marc Lalonde had consulted the party about the budget. "I can't remember any minister of finance doing that before," commented the par- ty president. The former MP from Prince Rupert, B.C., said it was too bad about the photo, referring to the picture of the budget document taken by a Hamilton television station. "That's what happens when we have 19th century laws and 21st century technology," said Ms. Campagnola. She cautioned against him - be a "great vacuum" left when he retires. "He'll be recognized as the greatest Prime Minister Canada ever had," said Ms. Carnpagnola. With comments such as "A Liberal is a Liberal is a Liberal" and "we cannot af- ford the luxury of not working together" Ms. Campagnola said the party is in the process of building towards speaking in one voice across the country. She noted the best gift the Liberal party has received is the "factionalized opposition" which is currently undergoing a leadership election. The Liberal -Party presi- dent took the opportunity before and after the dinner to speak to many of those in attendance.

At a time when the plight of millions of children is so great, and when the lives of so many hang in the balance not just from day to day but the minute to minute, it is heart- warming to realize that UNICEF has the interest of so many fellow Canadians. The monies that UNICEF' in On- tario has received will go a long way in alleviating the suffering of thousands of children around the world. Approximately $500,000 was raised through the Hallowe'en campaign and the same amount was realized from the sale of Greeting Cards. These amounts are matched by CIDA (Canadian Interna- tional Development Agency). This means that such pro- grammes as oral rehydration therapy, the first breakthrough in stopping dehydration in young children suffering from gastric infec- tions; child immunization against measles. diptheria, tetanus, whooping cough, poliomyelitis and tuber- culosis; promoting breast feeding and finally training mothers in the use of a growth chart to arrest and prevent child malnutrition and ill - health may be implemented. As well, clean water will be provided to communities where even a puddle of dirty water can be precious. In these times of economic uncertainty, we, the volunteers of UNICEF in On- tario are most gratified by the continuing Sympathy shown for those small beings of the world, who are all too often forgotten.
