Reso- lutions are sent in from Locals to head office, where they are distri- buted to all locals and then voted on at the annual convention. The resolutions passed are incorpora- ted into Farm Union Policy. Mr. Tebbutt told of his recent work throughout the province and said that farmers contacted were ready and willing to join OFU, They ,are beginning to accept the fact that they can no longer sit idly by; they must do something. Mr. Tebbutt gave a detailed ex- planation of deficiency payments. He said the Farm Union supports the principle of deficiency pay- ments. He continued, "The Farm Union will never be satisfied with 'anything less than parity and will continue to strive for parity pric- e's on all produce consumed in Canada—but not on surplus pro- ducts," Mr. Tebbutt strongly condemn- ed the publicity that exists, where- by the consurner is educated to ex- pect cheap food. He said, "The wage earner today can buy more food with his hourly wage than ever before. How can farmers .produce cheap food with continu- ing rising costs? Why should pri- ces be set by what the consumer ,feels like paying? Parity prices need not raise the price of food beyond the consumer's reach. A parity price for hogs would be '$30-$32 cwt," Mr. Tebbutt spoke briefly on the coming hog vote' and was questioned extensively on this subject during the discussion. He said that the old vote was declar- ed invalid because of "irregular- ities" and there is no way of being sure this can't happen again. He said all farmers seem to want producer - controlled marketing boards. He felt that one of the inadequacies of the present plan was the :fact that the same 11 man board runs, (1) The Hog Producers Association, (2) The Hog Producer's Marketing Board, (3) The Hog Producers Co- operative. This does not allow for change in thought, and results in these same men work- ing for each other. This powerful Mr. and Mrs. Lorne Rader at- tended a Philco demonstration in London last Wednesday after- noon. In the evening they attend- ed a Glidden paint demostration in Clinton. WEDNESDAY,. SANVAR'Y 20, 1960 board is made up of Zone direc- tors, and unfortunately once sev- en men are' elected they may'ap- point the other four. Mr. Tebbutt said the OFU would like to see this change and would be in fav- our of a National Meat Marketing Plan, including all red meats. OFU president G. L. Hill spoke of the serious decision facing far- mers, regarding the new hog vote. He said, "I am greatly disturbed that a deliberate attempt will be made to sidestep the real issues of the vote, and confuse the voters by leading them to believe that the future of all marketing plans depends on the approval of the present Hog Marketing Board, The only issues that must be con- sidered are those concerning the present Hog Marketing Board." Mr, Hill continued, "Should the present plan fail to be approved by a majority vote, the Hog Pro- ducers Association would still be retained, and it would not neces- sarily mean that we would return to the practice of dumping hogs in the packers' yards. The pres- ent plan would continue in opera- tion until dissolved by "Order in Council." This would provide an opportunity for either the present board or another organization to come up with an alternate plan. It would also be possible for the Farm Products Marketing Board to take over the present plan, ef- fect some changes and operate it on a trial basis in an effort to come up with a satisfactory hog plan." Plans were made for a canvass in the immediate area for the next week, It was decided the next meeting would be held in Varna School, January 25. This meeting will start at 9 o'clock sharp. Ernest Talbot thanked the speakers and the ladies served lunch. ROCK of AGES AND EVENTIDE MEMORIALS INQUIRIES ARE INVITED T. PRYDE and SON EXETER Clinton Phone 41 HU 2-6606 Seaforth $11 00.
