FEDERATION NEWS
By. J. Carl JIerningway
Now to, complete the report on
the Leadership Forum that was
partially r'epor'ted last week,
On Satnt'day morning the sees
Wen was again led by Mugu
County graduates of the Ontario
Leadership Fornllt,
Mrs, Stanley Bride and Mrs.
Gordon, Greig', both of Howiok
township led a discussion on Ef-
fective Speaking, The group was
then divided into five parts and
each person had a chance to woo
tice what was learned. This was
followed' by critieism and ques-
tions.
Mrs. Alex. McGregor of Tucker -
smith twp. outlined the need for
Publicity and Public Relations to
make organization activity effec-
tive. Sheused diagrams and illus•
trations to get the points across,
Mrs,,Frank Yeo of Goderieh
twp, closed the course with a
study of the art of reporting news
to the Press. This is an effective
means of getting information out
to the public but we need to con-
sider the views of the editor.
If our reports are to get to
press they must be ofdefinite i1
terest, they must be brief, and
they must be accurate, Here a•
gain all were given a chance to
try their hand at "Newspaper r'e•
porting" with the good and had
points noted.
In the Co -Op. Commentary
there 1s a quotation from an ad-
dress given by Pandit Nehru of
India "Our modern structure of
society --is competitive— if that
competition is based entirely on
the acquisitive instinct of the in•
dividual it brings trouble. The
business of an acquisitive society
is quite out of date since in
0110017 at least, we have passed
out of an age of scarcity into an
age of abundance, Unless we de,
volop that completely different
mentality, the co-operative men,
tality, we, collie to grief, and wo
conte to conflict".
Ernest Page goes on to 09110•
went "The' dilemma of the eapib
alist countries arises from the
fact that, as Mr. Nehru points
out, the "acquisitive society" is
not appropriate in an age of
plenty. Why compete viciously
for a larger and larger portion of
the world's goods when there can
be enough for everyone and
where no one needs more than
enough?"
There is no need to be a mil.

late year after year?
In one of our barns we have
hay that is four or five years
old, Thls I must admit is poor
management on my part and I
will have to take steps to get rid
of it,
The same applies to the accum'
Illation of butter that is so much
in the news.
Had we continued at the rate
of production and consumption of
1956 and 1967 we would have
been short of butter, The Govern-
ment increased the price in order
to increase production, Now they
will have to take steps to dispose
of surplus,
