Recently in the 'de bate .follow- i
, It s my contention that it the
frig" the'speech from the throne in policy had been changed and • the
theCanadian House of Commons, regrdatioh' had specified that,; these
''Cardiff, MLA for Huron, inumgrants would have to stay.oni
dame to the defence of 'Western the land two or three years, ,then!
Ontario dairy farmers with these many who did not intend .to work
Words: on the farm at all would never
have,corne here in the, first place,
Then we would not now have them'
onx'elief. •
'The fact that - the farmer is not
getting his fair share of the na-
tional income and is not getting.
sufficient : for his products has
meant. that he has been priced
out of the labour market and can-
not afford to employ assistance at
the prevailing rates of wages. The.
result has been that the farmers
have been compelled to carry on,
without that • much-needed assist-
ance and some of them, 60 years
of age and -over, are trying to farm'
100 acres of land without assist-;
I rise tonight to make a per-
sgnal protest against the importa-
tion of New Zealand cheese, at a
time when we have a surplus in
Canada, -I make this protest be-
cause of the pressure which has;
been brought to bear on me by my'
constituents, and the cheese pro-
ducers arid, dairymen in my
County. They have expressed dis-
satisfaction at the importation of
Cheese at a time when we have a
surplus of ten million p"oun"ds or
more. ---
"If , this;. cheap. New Zealand
cheese was going 'to benefit :the
cpnsumers of Canada it:would not
took, so. bad, but such is not the
case, The processors who are im-
porting : this cheese are the only
people who will receive anybenefit.
The bean growers of rnycounty
test many thousands of dollars be-
cause theywere not ableto har-
vest their beans. 'Losses as . high
s $10,000 were incurred by single
armers yet you did not hear very
such about it,
The losses they suffered were
almost unbearable. - They lost not
only the crop but, the cost of plant=
ing and. cultivating it prior to
harvesting. In many places this
almost ruineds'ome of the younger
fathers who had just started up.
• "Two years ago I drew the at-
tention of the then Minister of
CitWeiiship and Immigration to the
fact that a great number of immi-
grants were coming into this :coun
' try who were supposed to work on
farms, but after they arrived here
they stayed a short time on the
farms before migrating into in-
- ,dustry in the towns and . cities of
This country. The farmers could
have employed that labour and
Would, but for 'certain reasons,
still be able to do so.
I emphasized the fact that
those fellows had no intention of
staying on the land. According to
regulations they,were supposed to
,remain on the land for 12 months
after their arrival in Canada, but
some stayed less than two weeks.
"Some Might ask themselves.
why they -should go to work on the
land for 12 or 15 hours a day when,
they could work in industry for
$1.50 or $2 an hour, -and they may
have some justification for doing
so. But after all, if they have no
jobs the money stops coming in,
and they start getting hungry.
Then I think they will find that
working on land is not quite so
bad after all. As I have already
said, farmers' could absorb thous-
ands of these men providing they
could be hired at reasonable rates
of pay.

t
he Top 'Sheli..
(By BENJAMIN JBEVEILIDGE)
Last year 'was .a good one for
booksellers in America, Oddly en-
ough, though, of the 12,000 new
titles added to the list, there were
fewer and fewer bestsellers reach-
ing the sales established by lead-
ing authors in other years. Where
the most popular books m the first
two decades of the century sold as.
many as 1,500,000 copies •(thus
establishing -a standard for best-
sellers); a , book which reaches
180,000 in the United States today,
or 5,000” in Canada, is considered a
bestseller, •
Americans don't buy books like
The British and the French do. But,
then, books cost more in the U.S.
and Canada, and this no doubt
helps make us great library pat-
rons. The reason why publishers
and authors did so 'well in 1954
Was not because their initial sales
were so good, • but because they
gained en subsidiary rights, , films,.
soft-cover reprints, and book club
agreements. There are 100 book
clubs in America, and the Reader's
Digest condensed book, club has
1,600,000 members, all reading
short versions ofthe books before
Hollywood gets them.
Textbooks, religious books, and
how -to -do -it books are more pop-
ular than ever, the latter possibly
being due to -the high cost of
tradesmen's services and the forc-
ed popularity of the do-it-yourself
philosophy.
The foregoing has,sent me mus-
ing over some old book lists, and I
find some interesting things about
books and other activities "which

It was in 1933 that people all over
the continent tried to forget their
misfortunes by doing jig -saw puz-
