The National Farmers Union
presente d a brief to the National
Energy Board on May 21 at Ottawa.
The N.F.U. urged the National
Energy Board to reject the construe°
tion of a pipeline from Sarnia to
Montreal in favor of an all -Canad-
ian route through Northern Ontario.
This would be in the interests of
all Canadians .if we are to retain
any' form of control over our oWn
sovereignty.
The N.F.U. objections to the
proposed Sarnia to Montreal pipe-
line are based on the implications
to farmers as well, Monetary .
offers to cross farm lands are un-
realistic and often ludicrous when
one considers the industrial use
for which land is to be employed.
A further consideration is relat-
ed to the dangers of soil contamin•
ation or to human life which is a
continual hazaard associated with
pipelines running through prime
farm lands near areas of higher
population density.
In addition further ravaging and
disruption of farmers and produc -
tive, farm land can no longer be
tolerated in a food short world.
An all Canadian pipeline
should be built as a public utility,
as should any pipeline serving
Canadians on Canadian soil.
- .The recent so called energy
"crisis" caused Canadians to focus
sharply on our vulnerability as a
nation to foreign policy decisions
of multinational corporations and
sung. ,
Mrs. Frank McQuillin prepared
and gave the motto "Forty is the
old age of youth and fifty is the
youth of old age". It was humor-
ous and much enjoyed. Mrs. Jim
Curran gave a paper on "country
living". Mrs., Fred, McQuillin
played a piano solo "With
Someone Like You".
Mrs. Harold Cooper, who pres-
ided for the program part of the
meeting, read an article on "The
important part a wife plays in the
home, and more so if she helps in
her husband's business office also"..
Mrs. Herb Wilkins demonstrated
the making of fur -fabric flowers
which was most interesting. She
gave out little kits and many
women. went homewith a flower
she had made with Mrs. Wilkins'
supervision. ' She was thanked by
Mrs. Bruce Raynard and presented
with a gift.
The meeting honoured all Grand
mothers who received a corsage
before the meeting. Many grand-
mothers received little lucky
gifts in contests. •
It was with a touch of regret
that Mrs. E. W. Rice who had
been with the St. Helens .'W.I. for
over 40 years and many years a
faithful pianist, Mrs. Charles
McDonald who had been a past
president and Mrs. Wm. Ruther-
ford who had also been a faithful
pianist, received gifts because
they found it no longer convenient
to belong to St. Helens W.I.,
having moved away fromthe
community. Miss Isabel Miller
made the presentation and each
lady replied.
The meeting closed with "0
Canada" followed by the Insti-
tute Grace. The hostesses Mrs.
Jaynes Curran and. Mrs, Harold
Cooper served cake and ice
cream for the social time that
followed.

It is reported that Imperial Oil's
profit rose by more than 427o last
year, and that the company' so far
this year is making profits of
approximately $1 million a day.
Now that the hysteria of an oil
shortage, has given way to increas-
ed oil company prices and profits,
there does not seem to be the.
same urgency and panic to"
through" the. Sarnia to Montt
supply line.
This being the case,a r
approach to the construction
on all Canadian pipeline:
from Winnipeg through Non
Ontario to Sault Ste. Marie
Montreal should receive pt
consideration.
However due to increased costs to the Lucknow Hydro
tem for power supplied by Ontario Hydro, materials and!
plies. used in line construction, operation and maintenance,
pansion and growth, salaries and wages, it has become no
Gary to increase the hydro rates to you, the customer.
The new --Tates will become effective on all bills issued
and after July 1, 1974. .
You have our assurance that we will continue to light tii
costs to the best of our ability through efficiency and good m,
agement. And you can'expect us to receive top value iron
dollar spent on your behalf. We are determined to maintain
ectrical service as the best bargain in the family budget '
