Jim Sheldon, National Director for Region .3. attended and Lorne Luther , Director of District 5 chaired the meeting. The dairy policy had a thorough"going over. Andrew Kittner, dairy chairman of Local 341 had figures to show that it cost $11.05 to produce 100 lbs of milk; 1.010 added to this for profit on 'investment would bring the / figure to $12.15. The recent in- crease announced by the Ontario Milk Marketing Board will give the producer an extra .810. Add- ed to what he is now getting this gives him about $8.53 per Cwt. ProduCers agreed that the Can- adian Dairy Commission is not interested in paying what it costs, only enough to ,keep people milk- ing cows. The Ontario Milk Marketing Board was described as a cumbersome board, consisting of 157 members who set their own salary; George McLaughin has been chairman for 8 1/2 years. The record shows that 120 dairy farmers per month are leaving the industry in Ontario. From this meeting a resolution, was passed to withhold farm prod- ucts in 21 days if prices did not improve.
