So far, this has not seemed to hurt employment much (see below) but it is expected to, later in the fall and winter, In Ottawa, the biggest pro- blem is the cut in staff that is now in process. Departments like agriculture, DBS, etc, with big staffs but an increasingly bigger job to do, are already finding difficulties in getting their work done, With the rule now fixed that staffs must be cut by 15 percent before any new jobs can be filled, unfinish- ed work is piling up and new (By Florence Elliott, Secretary, Huron Federation) Ray .Narina .Remelected :Head Huron District fanners Union. ,An election. is being held in the Huron-ruce riding, While I can -writing this before the eleetlen you Won't be reading it until after the election, This I hope will free me of all ac- cusations of playing politics.

One voter, when asked who he was supporting replied that he was voting for a nice young man and that a nice young man would be elected One is a nice young man who might be said to be taking his share of responsibility in the community.

The CIA started in 1947 and has grown so that only one insurance company sells more policies now than CIA. Regarding safety—be sure to put your lights on at the pro- per time and also keep snow off rear windows. Report on Mink Marketing: Mr. Farnsworth said that ten meetings had been held re milk marketing since June and the board was willing to listen to recommendations from produc- ers until November 1 before a vote is taken. He urged that producers co-operate for the good of the dairy industry. He also said that producers are voting on the structure of the plan and not the mechanics of the plan, as the mechanics of the plan can be changed when conditions warrant a change. In a year, when weather condi- tions are such as to increase production, some change in the mechanics of the plan may be necessary. Lady directors meeting held on September 28 in agriculture office board room for Zone 2 was chaired by Mrs. Alex Mc- Gregor, Kippen, lady director for Huron, Guests were from Grey, Bruce, Perth and Huron counties. Mrs. L. Taylor, chair- man of Zone 2 gave inspiring address, to fall for that old "guff" that two can live as cheaply as one. I can see no basis for selec, Lion on these points, Some literature from the Conservatives arrived in the mail. It told of the good roads that had been built and that they had expanded their educa- tional program. As far as I can see present road building is simply a copy of the "Drury" roads of the early twenties, and I believe it was the same government that took the first steps and laid the first plans that would bring equal educational opportunities to the rural pupil. We can hardly speak of "Progressive" Conservatives when they are now putting into practice the ideas of 40 years ago. Oh yes! They are going to send more delegations abroad to sell more cheese at time when the Ontario Cheese Pro- ducers Marketing Board is un- able to fill the orders it , al- ready has, And what about the Liberals ? They are going to do the same things as the Conservatives only they are going to do it better. They have failed to give any indication at time of writing as to how this will be accomplished. The Liberal candidate came close to saying something on a TV program when he stated that the Conservatives had spent too much in the riding but he failed to point out how the Liberals would improve "value received" for the tax- payers dollar. The Liberals made a big thing of the corruption in the department of justice but have not given us any idea as to how they will correct the dif- ficulty and how it is to be prevented from recurring in the future. The act of choosing or select- ing? Perhaps the lady on the TV interview program had the best answer, When asked why she was going to vote Conserva- tive she immediately replied "Because I am one." And so by the time you read this a nice young man will have been elected a member of the provincial government. He will either support Mr. Roberts whose main objective, according to his own statement, is to keep the Conservatives in power or he will support the Liberal leader whose main objective is to put the Conservatives out of power. I still hope that some day it will be politically expedient for a party to have the objective of good government, which will state what it thinks should be done and how it proposes to do it. Will the people ever vote for such a party? I.

Ray Hanna gave an outline of his activities' during the year, and, suggested that In the fu- ture, -larrn. Union members should become more aggressive, "We must, e in a very strong position so we can, deal more directly with opposing fac- tions," he said. A discussion on the pros and cons of compulsory marketing followed, Mel Tebbutt, provincial pre- sident, attended. this meeting. He gave a stirring and thought- provoking address on farm or- ganization, present and future. He said that present-day farm organizations must ask them- selves if they are strong enough and have facilities at hand to do the job expected of them. Just back from Saskatoon, Mr. Tellebutt brought news from 'a -conference of the Canadian Federation of Agriculture and the National Farmers Union where the chief topic under discussion was the betterment of farm organizations.

"We must not be satisfied With What we have," Mr, Teb- butt continued, "we must leak ahead and build A solid founda- tion." His theory is that farmers should have one strong central organization with membership collected at 'the local level, Research would be conducted and the Wog/nation related back to the farmers. "Communications to farmers are very bed," Mr. Tebbutt sal/de "It is impossible ' for a few farm leaders 'to get all the knowledge that comes their way back to the producer. When business concerns such as implement manufacturers are met with higher costs' these are peeved on to the farmer who has to absorb them, but when the :farmer faced with similar problems he finds he is not in a position to pass the added costs on to the consum- er." Mr. Tebleutt closed 'his re- marks by reminding farmers that they control their own destiny and their future as farmers depends on their actions' now. Gordon Hill thanked the speaker.
