This amount was entirely in- adequate to handle the flood of wheat in August, 1963, so the Board deferred rebates on the 1962 crop and by using this ,as collateral and. even obtaining credit on previous years' opera- tions eventually owned wheat to the tune of four million dal-. lars, I Fortunately the president ands Seeretaryenartager had attend, tea a Trade Conference in Ot- tawa in early 1963 and had been able to interest 'Russia in On- taxio Wheat, Near the end of Aegest .an order for 1,800,000 bushels arrived from Russia.

For this reason a vote is be- • ing conducted by the Farm Products Marketing.3,0artl to . permit the Wheat Producers Board to deduct up to 10 peer- cent of the negotiated minimem price of wheat for Marketing purposes. If this policy fails to gain the approval of the producers, the only alternative' for the Marketing Board will be to re- duce the minimum- price to as point where present regulations will supply sufficient money for emergencies,. This could well mean a reduction of 20 cents per bushel in •the Zeal-, price or a reduction from $1.65. to $1.45 per bushel. The increase' in the '.dedtior turn does not mean that cost of marketing will be increased accordingly. It will simply mean that the Wheat Producers will be making a higher loan to the Board which will be returned in the form of an increased re- bate the following year. At 'the closing of the meet- ing a resellitipll was passed commending the Ontario Wheat Producers Marketing Board for the excellent work they are do- ing. To me this was a fine gesture of appreciation that is too sel, dom given to 'the members of our farm organization boards of directors. I feel quite sure that any marketing organization that can hold the price of their product 25 to 30 percent above the world- price deserves the sup- port of the producer's and they certainly should be made aware of this appreciation. Comaktee men elected for 1964-65 were; Russell Bolton, Seaforth, president; J. C.

Clinton Russell Bolton, Seaforth, zone director on 'the Ontario Wheat Marketing , Board, expressed satisfaction at the .attendance— the best in the county since the Marketing Board was organiz ed, Last year there were .862 farmers in Huron who sold Wheat, It had been .expected that the , 1963 crop would • be • smaller than usual but clue to, extreme- ly favourable spring weather danditio-ns, the average yield was up from 35 bushels per acre in 1962 to an .average of 40 bushels in 1963. Due to an unprecedented rush of marketing .at harvest time, the Board was hard pressed for finances to purchase all wheat offered to it, Fortunately a large sale was made to Russia for October and Novernber de- livery which relieved the pres- sure, • The Board is also now reap- ing • the benefits of their re- search work at the OAC on the value of Ontario wheat for feed. This has resulted an in- creased use of Ontario wheat in the feed - business, The Board also has given strong support to the amend, merits to . the Bankruptcy Act as 'introduced by MP Gene Whalen, a former wheat board member. Whilethislamendment was defeated in committee there is hope that it will be re-in- troduced as 'a government bill and give the farmer needed pro- tectien against loss of payment for wheat delivered to the trade. Ken Standing, secretary-man- ager of - the Ontario.' Wheat Producers Marketing Board ex- plained the financial crisis that did arise in August, 1963. In former -years the farmer marketing of wheat was over an extended period of several months. This gave 'the Board the opporunity to sell surplus into export as the wheat was offerect However in 1963 a very high percentage of the total crop was marketed by August 15 and • the Board couldn't sell wheat that fast. Ordinarily the Board can ex- pect the nine cent marketing levy to provide $900,000 'to sub- sidize wheat .sales into export New officers for the coming year were appointed as follows: president, Janice Trewartha; vice-president, Leonard, Lobb secretary, Karen McClinehey; assistant 'secretary, 'Mary Lynn Forbes; treasurer, Nancy Ginn; World Friends,' Marlene Yeo and Gary Potter, The new president, Janice Trew.artha, assumed duties and conducted the business.
