for plight of Ont, dairyrnen
"We insist that the Ontario
Government assume its
responsibility for the present
plight of Ontario dairymen and
alleviate the situation by sharing
the financial losses, The Ontario
government has real respon-
sibility because it encouraged
increased dairy production
through its Industrial Milk
Production Incentive Program,"
said Leo Brisson, Chairman of
the Eastern Ontario Milk Action
Committee and President of
Russell County Federation of
Agriculture,
Mr. Brisson was echoing the
sentiments of twelve hundred
Ontario farmers, from counties
across Ontario, from Huron to
Glengarry, who attended a
masses meeting held recently in
the Nepean Sportsplex, near
Ottawa.
The meeting presented a brief
to Agriculture Minister Eugene
Whelan and Bill Doyle, Executive
Director of Marketing Services,
Ontario Department of
Agriculture, who was
representing Ontario Agriculture
Minister Newman.
The brief asked for immediate
implementation of an 8 -point
program to solve the present
problems of Ontario dairy far-
mers.
Neither Mr. Whelan nor Mr.,
Doyle would give any assurances
that this program would be
carried out.
The meeting, therefore, ap-
pointed a Milk Action Comimittee
to seek immediate im-
plementation of this program:
1. Nineteen seventy-six gross
income, which will be derived
from 85 percent of 1975 produc-
tion, must be no lower than 1975
gross income.
2. There should either be a
change back to yearly quotas or
an immediate refund of the May
over -quota penalty.
3. The Ontario Government
should pay the $1.35 cwt within
quota levy until the surplus of
milk powder decreases to ac-
ceptable levels.
4. The Ontario Government
should subsidize the selling of
dairy cows at $100 per cow, up to
20 percent of herd.
5. Cheese imports should be
reduced and any surplus milk
directed to cheese factories.
6. There should be no transfer
of quota between provinces.
7. Long-term dairy policy
should be set and then not
changed suddenly.
8. Both the federal and Ontario
governments should make a firm
commitment (to negotiate with
farmers for a satisfactory
solution to dairy problems im-
mediately.
Take precautions
and know your car
Drips on the garage floor could
mean many things, depending
on what's dripping and from
where, says the Ontario Safety
League. Place newspaper under,
the car to catch the next drip-
pings and find out whether
they're oil, brake fluid, radiator
coolant or what. Then you can
usually find the source...and the
trouble. The only drippings
your car should make are plain
water from the air conditioner.
When a car pulls strongly to
one side as the brakes are applied
it means you've got a soft tire
or, more likely, a contaminated
or worn lining. This is a serious
safety problem, warns the Ontar-
io Safety League, that should be
checked out and fixed immediate-
ly.
You can take it with you and
it's a good idea. What? A supply
of minor bits and pieces that
frequently break and stop you
on the raod. If you've got a fan
belt, radiator hoses, points,
Businessmen
combine float
The Zurich business associa-
tion is entering a combined float
in the fair parade on Saturday.
Each business is supplying a
child representative of his busi-
ness dressed in a suitable cost-
ume. Preparations for the float
began Monday evening in the
Lutheran Church shed at 8 p.m.
Each business is expected to
supply a person to assist in the
decoration of the wagon pro-
mised.
USELESS WORRY
Don't take your problems in
this life too seriously—they're
never as bad as you may think
they're going to be.

Safety League reminds you that

weekend.
Does your car have the shakes?
Vibration at specific speeds or
at all speeds when driving on
the freeway indicates that some-
thing is out of balance. Many
cases can be cured easily. A
tire goes out of balance when a
wheel weight falls off or when a
new tire is installed without
being balanced. Driveshafts
can also cause "the shakes,"
but first check tires and wheels
because they're easier to correct
and more apt to cause problems.
