' BORN tALRYMPLE--At Scott Memorial Hospital, ou May 22,to Fir. anti Mrs, William Dalrymple, eniorth, a son PHAN—At Scott Memorial Hospital on May 29, to Ur. and IDii-+, Philip Sneak, Sea - forth, a daughter ZURICH Last Friday night Zurich Com- munity hall played host to a. well - attended meeting of Huron -Perth Progressive Conservatives. Chairman for the evening was Eliner Bell, prominent Exeter Lawy- er. Tom Pryde, M.P.P. for Huron was the first speaker and he told the gathering to vote Liberal if they were in favour of beaurocratic .gov- ernment controls, excess taxation, and orders -in -council. He stressed the point that sending a Liberal taus didate to Parliament was a waste of time because he would have no say in the government, because 'the top few cabinet ministers decide the is- sues and the individual members are made toe the line. Candidate Elgin McKinley in turn told the Zurich gathering that under MCKenzie King ,the government was attacked by both the Progressive Conservatives and C.C.F but now un- der St. Laueent it is different. The Conservative party alone stands for flee enterprise and supremacy of Parliament while Liberals and C.C. F,'ers fight side by side. "Why even Mr. St. Larent himself said on his western tour that the C C F'ers were merely Liberals in a hurry" he con- tinued, Mr McKinley told his audi- ence that it was time for a farmer from a different locality than Sea - forth to represent Huron -Perth at Ottawa and said that Seaforth had been the horse of a Liberal Federal Candidate ever since Confederation.

Mr. Case said that Liberalism was a wonderful creed and it was too bad for honest Liberals when their own leader said the Liberals, and C.C,F. had the same objective only the Lib- eral party were going to take longer to achieve the same end. At this-ineetieg Mr. Case proved that the C.C.F. and Liberal party were working hand in hand by pro dosing an actual page from the Owen Sound newspaper pulished at the time of the 'Grey -North by-elec- tion, The full page ''advertisement carried pictures of dozens of C,C.F. and,commt}nist union leaders endors- ing the Liberal candidate General Ii2oNaughton and at the 'bottom of the page it said "Sponsored by the Grey North Liberal Association. Mr, Case then stressed the fact that Canadians produce nearly 50% more than they consume and that we as Canadians have to export to live. "Last year", said Mr. Case," we had 18 food contracts with Britain and now we have 4." During the course of the evening musical selections were given by the Zurich Evangelical Quartet, FEDERATION NEWS A practical proposal to get sur- plus food products which may be- come piled up in Canada and other producing countries into the hands of the. needy countries of the world, will be submitted by the Canadian Federation of Agriculture to the forth -coming third annual conference of the International Federation of Agricultural Producers, to open at Guelph, Canada, on May 31 for ten days. The statement to be submitted to the world farmers' conference' will be an earnest attempt to suggest a partial solution to the age-old prob- lem of food surpluses on one side of the world and starvation on the other side, The Canadian Federation delega- tion will ask the conference for en - donation of its proposal as a recom- mendation to be.made to the annual nreetingof: the food and agriculture organization of the United Nations (FAO), which is to be held the com ing autumn. It is expected that pro- posals will come forward from other delegations as well, ' Briefly, the Canadian Federation's proposal is for a joint agreement among surplus and needy countries for the use of surpluses, . working through an inteenationl medium of marketing and exchange. Under the plan, the needy countries would be able` to _provide the hungry people with the surplus foods at a cost with- in their reach, while the difference i which between. the price must be p paid to the producer and that which can be paid by the ultimate con- sumer would be borne by an inter- national emergency food fund set up by the member nations of FAO, t surplus thegovernments f tl e s encs tlo 'p producing countries. Under the e lan the international emergency fund would purchase the surplus food from the surplus country at the sante price which was paid to the produc- er, The international fund would then sell the product at half the price, or at some other per cent de- duction agreed upon, to the country needing the food. The loss would be charged back on the basis of 60 per- cent to the producer member country and 50 per cent to the emergency fund. The distribution of the foots in the needy countries would be through the rise of Coupons. ' Surpluses Now In Canada Consideration of this plan his added stimulus through the fact that Canada already is piling up embar- rassing surpluses in one or two food lines. Chief among these at the pre- sent .time is the concentrated milk industry's surplus of powdered milk and evaporated milk, a situation that is so serious that .in some sections substantial reductions in price have been made by the factories to pro- ducers, and scone are even approach- ing the point where they have to re- fuse to take the milk offered by their producer -customers, because of lack of markets for the finished pro - duet. Honey is in serious surplus, even to the extent that the dominion government Inas finally annoueiced its decision to purchase five million pounds of the 1948 crop for removal from the current market, There is a very heavy surplus of dried 'beans and some canned products such as tomato juice and peas.
