Threshers look to '64
The second annual meeting
and banquet of -Huron County
Pioneer Threshers and Hobby
Association was held Thursday
evening in Blyth.: Memorial Hall.
Ross Cardiff, Brussels, and
Tom Wilford, Crosshill, opened
the evening's entertainment
with oldtime violin music, ac-
companied by Miss Dale Cardiff
of Goderich.
President Harold Turner, in
his remarks, stated: "There is
never a show without some dis-
appointments, and the Thresh-
ers 1962 reunion held in Blyth,
was no exception.". A late har-
vest caused a short -age of drive
belts which were in use har-
vesting.
"This lack caused many steam
engines to remain idle, but all
in all, the results were gratify-
ing."
Treasurer Alex Manning of
Blyth reported gate receipts for
the 1963 reunion had amounted
to over $1,400.00, which left a
sizeable balance after expenses
were paid.
Greetings and congratulations
frotn Huron County were ex-
pressed by Warden Walter
Forbes, who said: "If old sol-
diers never die, old threshers
never do either." He recalled
some amusing episodes at
threshings he had attended
with Donald Snell of Waterloo.
Roy Adair, chairman of Hu.
ron County Agricultural Com-
mittee, brought greetings; also
Carl West of Sarnia, on behalf
of .the Threshermen's Associa-
tion of that area.

THIS WEEK AND NEXT
WHY . WE'RE A SATELLITE
By RAY ARGYLE
Events of the past two weeks
have brought forth fresh evi-
dence that the United States
regards Can-
ada as little
more than a
satellite. This
is why, twice
within a year,
official U. S. -
Canadian re-
lations have
hit the boiling
point.
When Cana-
ada announc-
Ray Argyle ed it had suc-
ceeded in sell-
ing $500 million of grain to
the Soviet Union, American pol-
iticians showed first dismay,
then envy.
Some Americans screamed
betrayal, but at least the Cana-
dian sales created an atmos-
phere in which President Ken-
nedy felt it safe to approve a
$250 million private sale of
American grain to Russia.
Washington levelled its bit-
terest accusation at Canada not
on political grounds, but for
purely monetary reasons. The
U.S., which believes in charg-
ing all the market will bear,
accused Canada of under -cutting
prices by arranging long-term
deliveries on guaranteed prices.
To get back at Canada, U.S.
authorities then called in the
press and leaked the fact that
Canada is charging only five per
cent interest on the Russian
wheat deal. They also revealed
that Canada's sale of $52 mil-

lion of wheat to Japan for $1.74
per bushel is five cents below
the current world wheat price.
There was a similar pattern
in negotiations between Ottawa
and Washington over Great
Lakes labor strife.
Canadian authorities, fed up
with years of violence among
seamen's unions on the St.
Lawrence Seaway, opened talks
with Washington to achieve a
union - operated trusteeship
among the affected unions.
When they couldn't get their
way with Canada, U.S. authori-
ties hit the panic button. Labor
Secretary Willard Wirtz spilled
details of the confidential talks
while the president of the AFL-
CIO, George Meany, urged his
unions to oppose "the destruc-.
tion of free unionism in Can-
ada."
At dispute was the fact that
although the crisis was brought
on by the irresponsibility of
Hal C. Banks and his Canadian
branch of the Seafarers' Inter-
national Union, the Americans
insisted on having a 2-1 major-
ity on the proposed trusteeship
board,,
The shock in Ottawa was so
great that it brought parlia-
ment out of its current par-
alysis. The House of Commons
promptly passed legislation to
put the unions under a Cana-
dian government trusteeship.
These episodes have spelled
out a now -familiar pattern in
official U.S.Canadian relations.
Time and again, Washington
has shown grossest presumption
in its dealings with Ottawa, ex-
pecting Canada to immediately
fall in line with American de-
signs.
No doubt the U.S. feels justi;
fied in this attitude.
It could bury Canada's wheat
export prospects if it ever de-
cided to unload its mountainous
grain surplus. It owns two-
thirds of our industry and we
are finally learning that its in-
ternational unions, like its in-
ternational corporations, a r e
American -run with its Canadian
branches merely subsidiaries.
Finally, the only two men
who have ever seriously at-
tempted to bring U.S. economic
influence in Canada under con-
trol—James Coyne and Walter
Gordon—have been hooted at
from coast to coast. Who can
blame the Americans?

in his work in future years. We
