The committee proposes that the first question on the ballot would decide whether the farmers of Ontario want a GFO with the power to make a checkoff on all farm products produced and sold in the province. This GFO would have one "local" per 1,000 farmers, Each local would send a director to the provincial council. The second question on the ballot would decide whether each marketing board should have a vote on the provincial council. MERCY BROS. AT Elm Haven Motor Hotel of r;,,r,,, ,....:.a .,f �, 4> r�,ralrn ��.... • Mar. 17 -- Mar. 29 COME EARLY TO GET A TABLE The third question would decide whether United Cooperatives of Ontario or United Dairy Producers Cooperative should each have a vote on the provincial council. The fourth question on the ballot would deal with the types of , membership and how a farmer would become a member of the GFO. Membership would be required by any farmer who wishes to vote or hold office or receive services after the founding convention. This three-part question should ask: "Should membership be automatic if you pay a checkoff?"; "Should membership require a voluntary payment regardless of checkoff?"; and "Should membership require a minimum contribution by checkoff, or voluntary payment?" The level of payment required would then be decided at the founding convention. The committee hopes that the plebiscite can be held in early June. This will allow time for the necessary legislation to be passed and for farmers to understand the legislation before voting. The local elections and founding convention would follow as soon as possible after the vote. The committee emphasizes that the farmer, by the way he casts his vote on the plebiscite and by what the delegates decide at the founding convention, will decide what type of general farm, organization they will have working for them. Malcolm Davidson, campaign committee chairman, emphasizes, "Our intention is that the farmers should make the decisions on these important issues," RAY SAYS when you're going to Lighten, Brighten Everything, Now! 1 fiuj NOW that sunny days are here again, it's time to lighten and brighten your closets as well as your household linen§: Let us do an expert job of dry cleaning everything from your draperies to your bedspreads.

Building permits Continued from Page 1 inspected severaltimes during the course of remodelling work. Mayor Don Symons argued that there is no need to take the job away from. the fire chief if the permits go first to the planning board for its approval. The idea was quickly accepted, with Councillor Proctor, a board member, assuring that the plan will work. He minimized the effect of any delay caused by going through the planning board. He pointed out that most construction is done with lots of preparation and that obtaining permits is just part of that advance work and should be taken care of ,before materials are purchased or any construction or alterations started. It wasn't immediately clear just how the applications will be proce,.,nee., but it was said that for the time being applicants should first contact the fire chief. The Deichert permit was ordered withdrawn pending a check of the subdivision agreement, Rub unpainted breadboards and cutting boards with a cloth dipped in salt after they have been washed with soap and water; they'll look lighter and brighter.
