Kinsmen Week to be
celebrated nationally
On February 20th the associ-
ation of Kinsmen Clubs cele-
brates its 49th anniversary. The
week of February 16th through
22nd will be commemorated as
"Kin Week" by over 13, 000
m,embers and their families in
426 clubs across Canada,.
These young business and
pr9fessiona1 men, in addition
to carrying on service work with-
in their respective communi-
ties, are dedicated td improv
mg themselves in modern busi-
ness and professional methods
and ethics. They also strive to
encourage co-operation, toler-
ance, and a better understand-
ing between the nations and peo-
ple of the world. ,
Service work in the commun.
ity has been of prime import-
ance with the Kinsmen Club of
Wingham since its inception 21
years ago. Local activities over
the years have been varied and
numerous. Some of the notice-
able community activities un-
dertaken and completed by the
Kinsmen Club have been the
Senior Citizens' Apartment, the
new road signs at the entrance
to the town and the bathing
house at Riverside Park. The
Kinsmen were instrumental in
the building of the W ingh a m
Centennial Swimming Pool as
well as sponsoring minor sports
and other entertainin&events
throughout the years.
Don't forget to support the
Kinsmen Winter Carnival to be
held on Friday. February 28th
and Saturday, March 1st.

Report from Queen's Park
Aside from the Constitution-
al Conference this week, the
big news in Toronto centered
around the Standing Conrimit-
tee on Agriculture. The occa-
sion was Bill 17, an amendment
to the Milk Act.'
This bill presentedan oppor-
tunity for the Channel Lsland
Breeders to come before the
Committee to express their feel-
ing about how they have been
treated under the Milk Act and
sorrie,of the changes they would
like to see. .
The Jersey and Guernsey
breeders are asking for what
amounts to a separate pool for
their milk in view of the fact
that previous to pooling they
had built' up a special demand
' for their milk sold under Chan-' ,

• George McLaughlin, chair-
man of the Ontario Milk Mark-
eting Board, said the Board's
records since it took over 'the
sale of all milk for bottling in
Southern Ontario show that the
total volume of milk sold by
dairies under Channel Island
labels exceeded the volume of
Channel Island milk delivered
to such dairies. At the same
time, dairy plant employees -
have told the board that when
C. I. milk was used for manu-
facturing, which should have
reduced the price paid for it,
the reduction was charged to ^
standard producers:
Mr. McLaughlin also said
the board has found cases Where
Channel Island shippers receiv-
ed -special consideration from
dairies even when their milk
was mixed with standard milk.
The Agricultural Committee,
on Mr. McLaughlin's urging is
to subpoena the records of the
board, the Ontario Milk Com-
mission, milk transporters and
processors. .
In the meantime, spokes-
men for Ontario producers of
Jersey and GUernsey milk are
crying "dirty pool". Robert
Wade of Ancaster, president of
the Channel Lsland Breeth-rs-
Milk Producers Association,
says the board has, needlessly
dragged old accusations into the
controversy over milk pooling,
and if dirty linen is to be wash-
ed in public, the Channel Is-
land producers have some on
the other breeds that they can
bring out when it uits them.
This latest outburst appears „
tobe part of the running battle
'between Channel Island produc-
ers and the Milk Marketing
13oard. No matter what rhe out-
come of the investigations, it
is doubtful if the position of the
to groups will have changed.
The Minister of Agriculture
this week announced that the
Government of Ontario is with-
drawing from the mortgage
field and that, effective Febru-
aryl3th, no further loans will
be made to Ontario farmers un-
der the authority of the Ontario
Jr. Farmers Loan Act. Any ap-
plications received by the Board
up to February 13th will be pro-
cessed.
