Mr. Gleave went on to say food prices in terms of wages earned by Canadians were now lower than they were ten years ago. "Thus the areas of res- ponsibility of farmers was to listen to farm leaders and de- velop policies which must then be taken to Government. It is governments responsibility to hear the farmer's policies. and act or take alternate action. If we as farm organizations take to government what will fg their mood, rather than What farmers need, our position becomes impossible. "As an organization we must take to government farm poli- cies that will assure stability, security and a decent standard of living for the farm people. Another speaker was. Dr. Walter Anderson, chairman, Department of Agriculture Ec- onomics, University of British Columbia, who felt that two most important problems were: 1. Prices appear to be too low. 2. Prices fluctuate too much, thereby making it difficult to determine production needs. An interesting point brought out by one of the speakers st- ating since the war the prod- ucts farmers buy have gone up 65% .and yet prices for farm products are down 17% leaving a price spread of 82%. A vote of thanks was extend- ed to Mrs Clifton for her very informative report. The meet- ing closed with the ladies serv- ing lunch. District Favours 10 Year Debentures For CDC!

A. Addi- son told in detail of the dif- ficulties and extra costs met by the board. The meeting heard several pertinent questions by reeves anxious to get answers to ques- tions they had been asked in their own townships. One item that was cleared was that no more grant would have been re- ceived for the addition even if the $40,000 had been included in the original contract. The gathering was friendly and helpful. Reeve M. J. Ag- new commented in setting the tone of the Meeting, "I don't think We should say a cross word to these men (on the board). After all, we appointed them." Reeve Ilarvey Coleman, St- anley stated his belief that the board members should beect- . el, ed, not appointed. The evening ended with a vote of confidence in the board mov- ed and seconded.
