conclusion.”
Demands Ban On Synthetics
Mr. Pryde, joining the debate
on the Throne speech, recom
mended a ban be placed on the
manufacture and sale of synthetic
dairy products; asked for gov
ernment action to end a racket
in the promotion of cemeteries
for profit; praised the building
of the South Huron Hospital
an “example of what can
done where trere is a will to
it.”
In supporting the demand
dairy farmers for a ban on syn
thetic dairy products, Mr Pryde
said the industry was asking what
almost every form of industry
enjoys today — protection from
outside.
Asks Government Action
Mr. Pryde charged the poten
tial profit on a new form of
cemetery promotion is $7,00'0,000
and asked for immediate govern
ment action to stop privately-
owned cemetery enterprises op
erating for gain. He said opera
tors are buying farm properties
at cheap rates and selling small
cemetery lots for as much as
$4 per square foot.
