The President's Address Mr. McInnis stressed the import of this meeting, the first held under the new scheme recently approved by Government and soon to go into effect. He thanked all those who had participated in taking the producer vote over the Province. . He pointed out that the industry has grown to such an extent that an export market of $180,000,000 a year has been reached. 'This market must be maintained since it is vital to the producers and the whole eco- nomic structure of Canada. Mr. McInnis stated that the pur- pose of the scheme was not to give producers legislation to set their own prices but to give 'them first, the ,power to control the marketing of their product; secondly the con- trol of quality.; thirdly, the time place and agency through which it will pass, The first job to be done is to maintain qaulity and continuity of supply.

McInnis felt that, since the - legislation to meet supply and de- 1 Ei xETER SEAFORTHCLINTON T. PRYDE & SON Memorial Craftsmen Producers had accepted Government i GLINT mand and had not received the prices j ,• _ —••—• "�"�" "' they should have, the Government should be prepared to give some ad- " " "� ditional support such las (bonuses. This should only be asked for on a quality basis. He pointed out that ana a was faced with the problem of supplying Britain with a regular market, which • could not be regulated monthly. To take care of this continuity of sup- ply he felt it was the Government's responsibility to have cold storage facilities throughout the province. The Secretary's Report: Mr. Tummon reviewed the Export and. Domestic markets, stating that up to the present 1005' Grade A and 60% grade Bi hogs had been ex - .ported to Britain, leaving only the low or medium grade product for the Canadian consumer. If this con- dition should go on indefintely it `. would lead to a drastic decrease in consumption in the Domestic mark- et, which is very vital to the entire hog industry. He compared the Domestic con- sumption of last year, which was 39 lbs. per capita, to that of the peace years of 1921 to 1930, which averaged '79 lbs. per capita. With the lifting, of controls, rationing, the tourist traffic, and such like, the industry can expect a decided increase in consumption, Mr. Tummon spoke df the Danish market, pointing out that during World War. 1 Denmark did not ex- port bacon to Britain and Canada was able to greatly increase her ex - emit market. During the peace fol- lowing and up to the last world war this market declined and Danish bacon was back or the British mark- et. The seine situation has happened again and our export market to Brit- ain is again declining. This is a very serious situation and producers should be greatly concerned about it. Mr. Tummon believed a National Conference of Hog Producers should he held to settle this vital question, and many other matters of import - alum. He pointed out that if the hog in- dustry was to hold a fair share of the United Kingdom market and also maintain the domestic market in the years to come it must endeavour to meet the following requirements: 1. Top quality; 2. Regular supply; 3. Volume sufficient to afford an ade- quate coverage of the market. To do this Government assistance for proper cold storage facilities would be necessary. -.Mr. Tummon stressed the need for a quality product since it would be essential for both domestic and export markets and for this reason an objective should de A et Ah ob- jective of 7:5 % g gmight not be reached in one or two years but an increase each year would help to justify the existence of the organization. Resolutions were presented to the meeting by Mr. Paul Fisher, who This Year 'Try Sunnyvale Chiclas he y of the resolutions committee by its mem- bers. Re Equalization Of Expenses Of Directors To Meetings: A resolution, sent in by Prescott and Russell, was read to the meeting and discussed at spine length It was felt that .some plan of equalizing expenses should be introduced so that expenses of Directors having considerable distance to travel would be equal to those living nearer Tor- onto. It was also suggested that an- nual meetings should be held in dif- ferent centres over the province. The resolution presented by the re- solutions committee, suggesting that this matter be left, in the hands of the Executive, was approved by the meeting. Boar Improvement: Resolutions from Frontenac, Sirn- coe, and Lennox and Addington were presented to the meeting and ap- proved'on principle. It was recom- mended that all Boars used for ser- vice be inspected by qualified men appointed by the Live Stock Branch of the Ontario Department of Agri- culture and that the use of all infer- ior or scrub Boars should be dis- discouraged. It was suggested that the Executive of the Ontario Hog Producers' work with the Dominion and Provincial Departments of Agri- culture to develop an effective policy of Boar improvement.
