E. 'Cardiff, M.P. for :Enron, on Feb. 10th, from Hansard: Mr, Cardiff: Mr. ,Chairman, I rise to take pant in this debate 'because the minister has given us a ,program to follow of which I for one do not entirely ap- prove. The Minister 'of Agricul- ture has proved himself to be a much better political adviser to the government than a minister of agriculture so 'far as the farmers are concerned. I have listened to him for the last 16 years, and I give 'him credit for being a clever minister. I appre- ciate his ability in a great manly respects, and certainly would not attempt to analyse the 'filgures he has given us et one time or another. The fact is that be is a marvel with figures and pretty hard to tie down wizenhe is quoting them. .4n hon. Member: He is telling the truth. Mr. Cardiff: I was not inti nat- ing ,that he does not tell the truth at all times, I have great respect for the minister in that regard, but he has the happy fa- culty of twisting figures. An hon. Member: 'Figures do not lie. Mr. Gardiner: 1 just give .them, I do not twist them. Mr. ''Cardiff: The minister has placed on Hansard certain fig- ures. We have not had en op- portunity of seeing for our- selves what they mean, but when it comes to telling the fanners that they are in a better posi- tion than they ever were, that is a different story. Anyone who knows anything at all about farm income knows perfectly well that the fawners of this 'country are the only group whieh has not prospered as the national income has gone up. All other groups have pros- pered under that increase, but the farmers have not. They are the ones who have been taking the ,brunt of this thing from start to finish. They always get the last rise in prices and when prices start to go down they take the first fall.' We have been taking falls for almost three years. We have been going down instead of going up at a time when everything we have to buy has gone up. The price we get for what we produce 'does not constitute something that is real. What we have left after we have bought what tive have to buy is our profit, and we have not had very much profit. I do not intend to talk about wheat, but if I were going to I would say the government is to blame to large extent for the BINGO ! MONDAY, FEB. 27 9 P.M. ST.

We 'refused to let the British 'dealers sign for $2 wheat because we in- sisted on $2.05. As a result we have never sold any wheat at that price, We could just as well have held the British market as lost it. The British are smart buyers, and they knew when they areoffered a good price. When we held our wheat at $2.05 welost the British market, and since (then they have not been (buying very much wheat from us. 3 heard the Minister •of Trade and 'Commerce state that we had not lost the British mar- ket, that they would have to !buy wheat from tis, but they have not had to a buy wheat from us. They 'bought their wheat from Russia, where they could buy ,more cheaply than here. Not only that, but countries in Eur- ope have ,been forced to grow awn their t e r m wheat because ours was too expensive to buy, Had we in the East !been able to buy feed nvlheat at a price we could afford to pay we would have bought many thousands of :bushels. That would have made more space available in the ele- vators for wheat now lying out on the prairies. Tiiat is one rea- son we have such a surplus of wheat, because we in .the east could not afford to buy feed grain. When we found we could not buy feed grain at a price we eauld afford to pay we had to buy screenings, which did not cost us anything except what was charged as lockage. We had to buy those dirty screenings that should have been burned, at a time when there was plenty of surplus grain in the west. We could easily have (bought a lot of that grain and thus made stor- age available for -thousands of bushels of wheat now lying out on the prairies.
