Goderich Pro -Life
read correspondence
from elected ones
At a general meeting of the
Goderich Pro -Life group held
last Monday night, letters from
Parliament were read—ex.
pressing views on the present
abortioj legislation.
The letters showed their con-
cern for the present provisions
that are abused and that the
Criminal Code provisions on
abortion should be clarified.
The Federal 'government
does not have jurisdiction over
the application however. In-
stead it is left to the individual
provinces.
Statistics have shown that
the number of abortions perfor-
med vary across the country,
with a large number of them
done in the Northwest
Territories where the Canadian
government makes the final
ruling. Direct action was taken
to tighten up the application of
the law: It was decided that
social and economic con-
sideration were not to be taken
into account in determining
when a pregnancy could be
lawfully terminated.
Otto Lang, Minister of
Justice stated in his" letter that
those persons who would so
easily end a human life through
abortion may soon be willing to
do so in other circumstances
and that abortion, except in
very limited circumstances,
odght to remain a crime.
In another letter, it was
found. that most 1 .D.P. mem-
bers were in favor of abortion
on demand. This stand has
already lost one of their, mem-
bers in the west. All members
were urged to write their
Provincial -members and the
N.D.P.
A report was read on the
Ronal Commission on the
Status of Women who are
recommending the widening of
the abortion law in Canada.
Members were asked to write
Dr. Katy Cooke (chairman)
asking that unborn children
also be protected by the Bill of
Rights - The Declaration of` -the
Rights of the Child.
A float will be entered in the
Christmas Parade on Saturday.
It was confirmed that a Birt
thright Satellite is .beim
'established in Goderich to offer
help to girls who wish to carry
their babies to term.
OODERICH SIGNAL -STAR, THURSDAY, NOVEUBBR
New organization planned
Christian Farmers adopt
A new farm organization has
been proposed. .by the Christian.",
_
Farmers Federation (C.F.F.) A
proposal for a United Farm
Organization; was unanimously
adopted as , a C.F.F. policy
statement at the September
meeting of the C.F.F. Provin-
cial Board in Georgetown.
"It is time farmers in' Ontario
again tried to find a permanent
way of co-operating with each
other," says Martin Verkuyl,
President of the Christian Far-
mers Federation. "Ontario's
farmers need an organization
through which the present
general farm organizations can
co-operate effectively. At the
moment there is more
quarreling' than co-operation
and the voice of farmers in the
province is weak` - even on
issues where we all agree -
since there is nobody that can
speak for all."
Mr. Verkuyl, an Oxford
County corn grower and hog
producer, sees the C.F.F.
proposal as a starting point for
discussions across the province
towards greater co-operation
•
between' general farm
organizations... m _. _ : __ -.-__ . - .. ".
Copies of the proposal are,
available upon request from
the C.F.F., Box 135, Drayton,
Ontario..
"The decision to adopt the
proposal was the climax of
more than a year's work," Rays
Elbert van .Donkersgoed,
Secretary -Manager of the
Drayton -based Federation.
In Aprit,rof . 1974 the C.F.F:
appointed a- Committee for a
United Farm Organization to
draft details of... the proposal.
The Committee members
were Ray Muizelaar a Jarvis
area dairyman and pork
producer, Tom Oegema, a
turkey producer from Talbot-
ville, Elbert van Donkersgoed,
Federation Secretary -Manager,
and Henry Westerhof a
dairyman near St. Ann's.
The Committee's draft was
submitted to the C.F.F. Provin-
cial Board in June of this year
and submitted to the 15 C.F.F.
locals across the province for
study during the summer.
The result is a proposal for a
COLBORNE CORNER
There will be a Card Party -
Euchre and 500 in the Carlow
Hall, next Wednesday Decem-
ber 5 at 8:30 p.m. Lunch will be
served and everybody is
welcome. This is sponsored by
the Colborne Township
Recreation Committee and it is
hoped you will come out and
bring your. friends and make
this a real get together.
VD CLINIC
The Clinic at Colborne Cen-
tral School last Wednesday,
November 21 on Venereal
Diseases (VD) put on .by Huron
County Health Unit was excep= -
tionally interesting and instruc-
tive. Dr. G. Frank Mills and
Mrs. Thind, Supervisor of
,Public Health Nursing in
Huron County, explained what,
is being done to combat these
dreadful' diseases and showed a
very interesting film strip
showing the facts about VD.
MRS:6, KAI11IN6 524-1011
Those present were reminded
that in order to successfully
combat these diseases or any
disease, people must co-operate
and it is most important to_,
know hoW the disease is spread
and the symptoms and then to
know what to do.
The rate at which this
disease is spreading and taking
its toll ,in Canada as well as
othver parts of the world • is
almost unbelievable as are the
after-effects of crippling; heart
damage, brain damage and of-
ten blindness along with other
injuries.
Parents are wise to take an
interest and avail themselves of
any opportunity to learn about
present and future problems of
the young generation.
Attendance at the clinic was
very poor, partly due to the fact
it was a school holiday and
mothers with young children
were unable to leave home.
United Farm Organization
�hat...would- be- -administered by
a 5 rmember elected -council
responsible to independent
groups such as the C.F.F.,
N.F.U., and_ O.F.A.
• "Back in 1969," says Mr. van
Donkersgoed, "the vote for a
General Farm Organization
(GFO) was lost because the
proposal would in effect
destroy the organizations that
now exist. The C.F.F. proposal
suggests an organization built
on the organizations that are
now active."
The Federation wants
provincial legislation `, ads
so the--'UFOcould-be formed oa--
a ,50 percent plus ons vote of
farmers in favour ; of the
proposal:
The. organization would be
financed by an automatic
check -off.
"This,,.' says Mr. van
Donkersgoed, "should not_be
confused with a compulsory,'`
check -off. We propose that
anyone who is opposed to the
work of the UFO should have
the right to request that their
money be, returned to them at
the end of the year,"
