Butter Means Sure 'Employment' Agricultural Minister Gardiner's recent announcement he would strive to maintain price supports under some agriculture) products would benefit city dwellers and farmers alike, according to an of- ficial of the Ontario Cream Pro- ducers' Marketing Board. "It's the only sensible system," said Thomas Byrns, Forest, Ont., vice-chairman of the board. If we have a price support for butter, for instance, it means the farmer can plan ahead to at least some degree, and this means that he can plan certain purchases which are, from time to time, necessary on the term. "These purchases are made in the towns and cities of the pro- vince, and they involve cars, trucks, farm implements, clothing, shoes and a number of things. And every time the farmer makes a purchase it means just that many more hours of assured employment for the city worker." The support system, he was quick to point out, also meant the worker could plan ahead in anoth- er way. With the .price of butter supported at a certain level the city worker is assured that prices will not climb too far above that figure and he needn't worry about being forced to cut down on his buying during periods of low pro- duction and peak prices. "And of course," ,said Mr. Byrns, "And, prices man steady employment in the cities, which means the city worker will have the money to buy our produce, just as the same situation means we will have at least a little money to buy what he produces."
