TAKE STEPS TO COUNTERACT AREA DROUGHT DAMAGE Immediate action to meet the emergency of unprecedented drought conditions has been in- stituted by Hon. William Stewart, Minister of AgriNul- ture. Under the direction of the Minister, a six -man emerg- ency committee has been set up to expedite delivery of wa- ter to drought -stricken areas and to take any steps neces- sary to alleviate the situation. Under its terms of reference the committee will locate in- formation centres in t h e drought -stricken areas, at which farmers will be advised of the nearest source of water. Meth- ods will also be devised to set up a tank haulage system. Co- operation of municipalities_ and public utilities will also be sought in order that water may be obtained where it is in ample supply. Announcing the formation of the emergency committee, Mr., Stewart said that offers of a supply of water had been re- ceived from the London Public Utilities Commission and St, Marys. At the same time, he issued an appeal to organiza- tions with tank trucks to make them available to the commit- tee. Tne committee will also in- vestigate methods of storing water on farms where the sup - W 1-N D • TORNADO, • CYCLONE Insurance R. F.

Appointment of the emerg- ency committee followed a meeting called by Mr. Stewart and attended by the Presidents of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture and the Ontario Farmers' Union, as well as members of the Ontario Water Resources Commission and the Ontario Department of Health. While it was still too early to assess the full extent of crop damage, Mr. Stewart was hope- ful that an early rainfall would improve the situation. "However, if,a rainfall does not come untiafter freeze-up, it will simply run off," said the Minister. "If that happened, the farmers would be worse off than they are now." Under the chairmanship of K. E. Lantz, Assistant Deputy Minister of the Department of Agriculture, the emergency committee is composed of H. F. Crown, Director of the Agri- cultural Development Branch. Ontario Department of Agricul- ture, who is vice-chairman; A. K. Watt, Ontario Water Re- sources Commission ; Robert Carbert, Ontario Federation of Agriculture; Melvin Tebbutt, President of the Ontario Farm- ers' Union; and D. Gd K. Mar- tin, Ontario- Department of Health. While the committee's terms of reference apply only to the emergency conditions of today, Mr. Stewart stated the long- term aspects of the water short- age would; be considered at a later date. "We need to find new sources of water and expand our meth- ods of holding it by building more small dams wherever pos- sible," said the Minister. "The future of agriculture in West- ern Ontario depends on water. We should explore now as to what can be done in the fu- ture." The Minister said he felt that drainage laws had, in some cas- es, contributed to the shortage of water. The time had come to consolidate under one piece of legislation laws dealing with the various aspects of water supply. Officials of the Water Re- sources Commission were of the opinion that ground water provided the best and cheapest supply. Farmers who did not drill deep wells were not tak- ing advantage of the best source of water. The meeting was informed that farmers who had drilled wells were not ex- periencing a shortage of water; rather it was the farmer with a relatively shallow "dug" well who was bearing the brunt of the situation.

FLORENCE ELLIOTT) A. H. B. Musgrave, president of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture, appeals for the assistance of all people and the fullest co-operation in helping to alleviate the serious water shortage created by the current drought in Ontario. "While the situation has reach- ed serious proportions M. near- ly all parts of the province, it is much more critical in some areas than in others, and, in these critical areas, every effort must be made to help those in distress. We appeal for assist- ance from anyone in a position to help. "We appeal also for full co- operation with the Emergency Water Supply Committee which was recently appointed by the Minister of Agriculture. This committee has moved swiftly to implement a plan of action by naming the agricultural repres- entative in each county as head of the county Emergencw Wa- ter Supply Organization. These county organizations, which will include Medical Health Officers, Emergency Measures Organiza- tion officers and Agricultural Engineering Specialists, will co- ordinate activities within each county. "If you have a water problem you are requested to contact your local agricultural repres- entative's office. Those who have surplus of water, or facili- ties that might be useful in the transportation or storage of wa- ter, are also requested to list such equipment with the coun- ty ' agricultural representative." Letters have already gone out to County Federation of Agri- culture officials requesting the full co -'operation of their organ- izations with the local Emerg- ency Water Supply Committee. Mr. Musgrave makes a final appeal in these words: "We earnestly seek the sincere co- operation of all individuals, or- ganized groups and municipali- ties in this emergency._" across the county will be par- ticipating in their respective achievement days.
