Task force report lull of suggestions The report prepared by the Ontario Federation of Agri- culture's emergency task force looking at the problems facing farmers is "full of first-rate analysis and sug- gestions", OFA President Ralph Barrie declared. Now entering his third term as president of On- tario's largest farm organi- zation, Mr. Barrie said the 5.6 -page report will provide the basis for the QFA's lobbying of government during the coming year. "The five people who worked on the task force are telling us loud and clear they don't think either the pro- vincial or federal govern- ments are spending enough money on agriculture," he said. The task force, which had been holding hearings around the province, recom- mended an immediate moratorium on farm bank- ruptcies and foreclosures for a period , of at least six months.' It suggested there should be "an infusion of suf- ficient capital" into the Farm Credit Corporation, which should be loaned to farrpiirf;,, At pe, r` S : ;Th, • Sacred Heart euchre party Ten tables were in play at the ' Sacred Heart euchre party Dec. 1: Winners were:.

Conveners were Agnes Caskanette and Lena Bondi and Rosemary Schwichten- burg and Mary Allen assisted with serving the lunch. Appreciation was expressed to all who made the party a success. money would be used only to consolidate debts and for refinancing, not for ex- pansion. "The money federal Finance Minister Allan Mac- Eachen allocated to the Farm Credit Corporation in his budget will not meet the needs of Ontario's farmers," Mr. Barrie declared. "On- tario farmers will require far more than $11 -million if we are to survive." The report also suggested a provincial savings bank for farmers.. Savings offices were introduced in the 1920s to provide credit for farmers and it was suggested they could ,benefit farmers again by- lending money to young farmers. E. Wawanoshe get signifi Township employees in Ei1$t Wawanosh were granted a sizable increase In pay for 1982 by council at a meeting held last Wednes- day. Clerk -Treasurer Winona Thompson received the most significant increase, to $19,000 a year in 1982 from $15,000 this year. Mrs. Thompson told council members he was seeking parity with clerk - treasurers in neighboring municipalities, many of whom, she claimed, make $20,000 a year and more. The. job's responsibility lasts 24 hours a day, she said. She spends three ,days a week at the office, but she often works at home and is called there by ratepayers to answer their questions. Reeve Simon Hallahan said, "I support you, but I carry the responsibility of the ratepayers." "The roads' get equal pay. Why can't I?" Mrs. Thompson replied. "Just because you started low; you're supposed to stay low all your life?" Following some discus- sion, council members de- cided to grant Mrs. Thomp son a salary of $19,000 a year, plus a $1,000 car al- lowance and the township also will pay her OHIP premiums. John McClinchey, a town- ship grader operator, went to $8.60 an hour from $7.72. Mr. McClinchey told • council members that he had spoken .to a county grader, operator who was receiving $8.65 an hour, and Mr. Mc- Clinchey said he felt. he should be getting the same abolt, them '0 - lel repro, amount for the same type of work. The township also will pay Mr. McClinchey's OHIP charges. Township Road Superin- tendent Ralph Campbell reported that the township's three extra winter madmen, Allan McBurney, Murray Vincent and Jim Scott, were dissatisfied and wanted to be assured. of a monthly in- come- He said they hoped to be assured of a minimum wage of $500 a month for the months of December, January, February and March. Last winter was average, Mr. Campbell said, and each man made approximately $450 to $500 a month. But, a mild winter could severely imit their earnings. Aftesrsme discussion, c. u it rifefnhers decided to gr '.tt a rip of $500 a month to snowplow operators from Dec. 15 to March 15. Wages to councillors will remain at $1,000 and the reeve will receive the same amount, $1,200, in 1982 as well.
