QODgRIC SIONAL., TAR, ATM= B2 Baha'i seminar condticted.here One of the most im- portant skills that will be used by mankind in the future will be the "art of consultation", according to Jack Boyd, a Baha'i from the Sudbury area. Boyd, who conducted a seminar for Baha'is from the Huron Region here on the weekend explained that consultation will be the skill that will make future administrative systems work more ef- fectively. To show its ef- fectiveness the Baha'is who met at the home of Albert and Phyllis Durst, were presented with a questionnaire which they individually answered-. Once completed, they met in groups of five and six persons and consulted on the same questions. When the question- naires were later marked it was noted that the accuracy of the team over the individual ef- forts improved as much as 66 per cent. '•The Baha'is also found that consulting was a more accurate method than voting as sometimes the minority had the correct answer. Boyd explained that decisions made by a group are more effective for two reasons: first because the group comes up with better idea and secondly, when a decision 4J J.12tUe,' Ritli nieii hei Ul the group are committed to that decision fully saying "This is oufi idea, and we are going to make it work".' Consultation is a teaching of Baha'u'llah, who Baha'is believe to be the most recent manifestation of God who came to lay the blueprint of a peaceful •world order for mankind. Boyd said, although consultation iq a fun- damental part of Baha'i administration, industry is already beginning to recognize its ef- fectiveness. Boyd, who has helped to coordinate such an •o-rgarri-z7a-tion-a 1- ef- fectiveness program for Falconbridge Nickle Mines of Sudbury, said in the two years since the program was im- plimented the company has "turned a $29 million annual loss into a $10 milliop annual profit and the value of shares have risen from $17 to more than $100." The 32 Baha'is who attended the weekend seminar came from as far away as Chatham and Sarnia to take part in the activities. Nineteen youngsters attended a children's session held concurrently at the home of Tom and Nancy Flynn's in Goderich Township. Several Huron Region Baha'is attended a seminar on the weekend at the home of Phyllis and Albert Durst, Colborne Township with guest speaker Jack Boyd providing insight on consultation. Those at- tending included: •(front row) Tyrell Fortune, Wendy Beauvais, Audrey Smith, and Donna Cale. The second row includes Ray Smith, Dianne Talbot, Sue Smith, Mary Whitney and Dorothy McDougall; (third row) Christine Ward, Joanne Durst, Barbara Pettipiece, Linda Proulx and Roy Lomas; (fourth row )Larry Smith, Phyllis Durst, Cathy McKegny, Albert Durst, Ory Seddon and Jack Boyd.

The hog industry in Ontario which has been experiencing financial difficulties in recent months, will be assisted by a .sow-weaner stabilization plan, established by the Farm Income Stabilization Commission of Ontario. The plan will be based on two six-month periods per year, beginning on April 1st and October 1, and will run for five years. It will be retroactive to April 1 this year. As with other stabilization plans the enrolment fees will be paid one third by the producer and two-thirds by the government. The sow-weaner plan is based on eight market hogs per sow in each six month period. Payments will be based on the standard formula for Ontario Stabilization Plan. Producers will receive the difference between 90 pe-rcent-and 95 pereent•of• the average price for market hogs .,over the preceding five year period. An adjustment will be made to reflect cash costs. The 'Federal Stabilization Plan pays 90 percent of the last five years average market price. Although payments are determined by market hog pi ices -they will be made on the number of sows registered. Far- mers who qualify must have at least four sows and they will receive payment for up to 100 sows. • At the moment the Commission is drawing up regulations and registration forms. As soon as they are ready the forms will be mailed to producers and they should be in the mail in a matter of weeks. REPORT ON CULTS After 18 months of study, under the direction of Daniel G. Hill, a provincial probe of 14 cults, sects and mind - development grOups has found large-scale deception and fraud in some of .them, but con- cluded. that - no public inquiry should be con- ducted. According to the report, techniques in- clude "hard'sell methods, unconscionable contracts, loan frauds, tax law manipulations and falsified bookkeeping,''`: In some cases, members are psychologically injured by their involvements with the groups and ;hey are taught to be hostile to their families and friends'. Mr. Hillsaid in his report that police and other government of- ficials should make better . use of existing laws or licencing, saying the exterit''of the problem did not warrant the risk of any reduction'in public freedoms. However, he confessed to an unease and a disquiet, saying he was persuaded "that some movements are, as their detractors say, corrupt, even pernicious". BUY BACK PLAN The government has announced a plan to help Canadians to buy back foreign branch plants in Ontario, Buyers could be eligible for up to $500,000 in direct loans and $1 million in loan guaran- tees. Aid will go only to Canadian owned or contr.olledcorripanies and Canadian investment or employee -management groups. The program is designed "to permit us to retain sound, economically viable plants which otherwise would he closed or resold. to other foreign owners", the Minister of Industry L-arry Grossman said. CENSOR BOARD Two members of the Ontario Board of Censors have stated that they felt -intimidated by board management over a crucial vote on cuts in the controversial movie "The Tin Drum": One - Joseph Cun-• ningham, who has been on he,Board for 12 years - tol a Legislature Co mince that he feared is job if he didn't change his. position that no cuts should be made to the film. in which the two board managers wanted to make four cuts. The film is an award- winning account of a young German boy who at three makes a decision 'top growing up and is set in the period from 1925-45. It will not be shown in Ontario unless the board reverses its demand that some scenes be cut or the director allows the movie to he shown with the cuts.. Subsequently, another board member, Rosemary Sexton, stated that she has felt in- timidated while s•he's been on the board, and that she supported the comments of Mr. Cun- ningham. LAND ASSEMBLY Some time toward the end of August an enquiry in the Legislature's public accounts com- mittee will begin into land worth $700 million bought by Ontario over the years much of which is unused today. Liberal Finance Critic David Peterson has pointed out that the government bought much of the land before 1975 to hold for . new townsites, low cost housing, industrial development, parkway belt and provincial parks. "But much of it is lying fallow today and the taxpayers are paying $7 million _. interest every year for nothing." UNEMPLOYMENT Opposition members have once again criticized the government for failing to develop an industrial strategy and for doing nothing to create jobs in the face of a 7.6 per ceht proyinciar unemployment rate for May. Meanwhile the Ontario Federation of Labour has indicated that mass action will he taken if the government ignores its call to stimulate the economy and create new jobs. • It has also been charged that Ontario is losing jobs in the food p1 ocessi ng -industry --Whsle importing food that could be grown here. More than 1,000 food workers have lost jobs in Ontario in the last year, but all those jobs could have been saved if Ontario stopped importing so much food, according to th.e United Food and Commercial Workers Union. •The Treasurer, Frank Miller, has stated that the government is studying the problems of the processing industry. RECESS The Legislature recessed for the summer months but there will he five committees sitting during the summer to consider a number of matters which were referred to them.
