Reorganize Baseball Here
. {i � ht
Tonight
Meetlln Called For 'lion
Local :baseball fans may have an
•
intermediate .team to cheer for this
season if a team is organized at a
meeting to be held in the Council
Chamber, Town' Hall, at seven -thirty,
o'clock tonight.
Hugh R. Hawkins a member of
the executive of the'old Huron -Perth
Baseball League which operated in
these parts prior to the war, and who
called tonight's meeting, said it might
be desirable to revivify this organiz-
ation which operated as a group of
the Ontario Baseball Association
Intermediate "B" series. He already
has taken steps to get the 'League's
reorganization under way. The last
secretary -treasurer was J. A. M.
Connell, Goderieh. •
At various times, the old Huron-
Perth included teams from Goderieh,
Wignham, Clinton, Zurich, Hensel].
Exeter, Seaforth, and Mitchell.
Fine Diamond Here
With one of the smartest "skin-
ned" diamonds in Western Ontario
available in Clinton's new community
park, prospects should be bright. for
rhe fielding of a pretty fair baseball
team here. There are quite a number
of good players available in this'
area.
If you are a baseball player or
Fan — and you have the evening
Free — the baseball meeting tonight
ahould be a good place to go.

"B" champions. They won the
title in two straight games from
Bobcaygeon defeating, them in Barrie
12-4 and in Galt Friday night last 9-4.
A crowd of over 1,800 witnessed

when inside the blue line.
It was the first championship to be
decided on Galt ice in ten years.;
Smith and iSchmalz stole the lime-
light for the champs, each figuring
four goals. The Nicholls boys and
Hicks were best for a team of good
losers.

GREATLY NEEDED
FOR FARM TRADE
(Continued from Page 1)
war, declared that the returned meh
should get a square deal and appealed
for support for returned' men on the
farm.
W. L. Whyte, in introducing Prof..
Drummond, outlined his distinguished
career n ithe academic and economic
fields. The speaker was thanked in
behalf of the gathering by Frank
Fingland, K.C.
Prof. Drummond
Prof. Drummond' emphasized that
the Canadian farmer depends upon
a good export market for manu-
factured goods, as well as for food-
stuffs, since without export trade
many Canadian industries will not be
able to put purchasing power in he
hands of urban 'consumers of food in
this country.
"The most efficient farm produc-
tion," he said, "and the best quality
in the world,'won't guarantee you a
market unless the potential puyer of
your goods has the purchasing pow-
er."
Referring to loans now being made
by Canada to European countries,
Prof. Drummond said: "We are find-
ing it temporarily necessary to export
the buying power as well as the pro-
ducts: Do we see that we must be
prepared to accept payment in goods:
front them?" •
Lesson from History
"In the 1930's," said Prof. Drum-
mond, "we farmers had the idea that
if we could only compel the people
of the urban centres—who are our
domestic market •— to pay up, that
they could pay almost any price for
our farm products. We thought they
had the purchasing power. If the
past three or four years have taught
us anything, they should have taught
that "
us that we were, all wrong about
The big jump of the past few
years in the, domestic market for farm
products, he said, was primarily the
result of placing purchasing power
in the hands of up to three quarters
of a million people who previously
had been on relief, eating as little
as possible, and paying for little or
none of what they did eat.
"We have at least two widely -
separated philosophies among our
farm people," said Prof. Drummond.
On the one hand we have the view—
probably the prevailing one—that we
can get more final satisfaction' by
having more material things. The
modern economic system is one in
which people tend to specialize,
mechanize, and standardize. That
means to produce more with less --
with
with less of everything, including
human energy. I think you people
know full well, though, that not all
our number go ton strongly for this
idea of a higher• material standard
of living. A very large group of
our Canadian farmers today are
farming not because they are inter-
ested in a higher material standard
of living, but because they are in love
with their jobs. They are the people
who are more interested in living
than in making a living."
"We farm people," said Prof.
Drummond, "above all else love our
freedom. We like to say what we
like, when we like. We want to go
to work and quit when we, like --
even if it means starting early and
quitting late. We like to make our
our decisions. If we insist on this
liberty of action we must take the
consequences; one of the consequences
is a much lower standard of living.
You can't have anything for nothing
in this world."
As agricultural production, welnt
up during the war years, said Prof.
Drummond: "partly because it was
patriotically necessary, partly because
it was economically worth while,
many farmers suddenly became more
scientific. Are we likely' to try to
maintain this expanded production?
We must either keep up the demand
for our product, or a great many
people will have to get out of farm-
ing and into something else."
If technical efficiency on the farm
should be pushed much further, he

said, production per man and per
faun would be much greater, and the
farm population could become even
thinner than it is now.
"There is no need to worry at all,"
said Prof. Drummond, "about the de-
mand for our new farm products in
1946 or 1947 or for three or four
years to come. It is. over the longer
run that the average thinking farm-
er is concerned. ,Nobody can know
the future with any degree of exact-
itude but over any appreciable length
of time a satisfactory domestic mar-
ket depends on the state of the ex-
port market. I£ you are really keen
about a high standard of living, you
should be• very keen about a good
export market."
