SQUARE ilp'tinfrottel :P Student consultant aid planned for business The Ministry will hire ten Masters of Business Administration students between the firstand second year of their program at the University of Western Ontario—selected and supervised by a four-man faculty board. The students will provide the consulting service within a 75 mile radius of London for the period May-August. The board will comprise three professors and a representative from small business. Criteria for selection includes academic qualifications, actual work Tourism will result," he said, opportunities for them consistent Apart from providing assistance to small businesses, the program will help universities increase understanding of the problems of such businesses, and provide case histories and research material for possible development of courses in small business and new enterprise management. It will provide first-hand experience for students and increase employment experience and functional expertise. Mr, White said that the advantages and difficulties of the program will be nanlysed with a view to broadening the service in 1973.

KAISER - with the 20-year Transferable Guarantee Low-cost Consulting assistance for small Ontario companies will he provided this summer by a group of graduate' business Students from the University of Western Ontario School of Business, it was announced by Industry and Tourism Minister John White recently. This pilot project may result in expanding this type of summer Huron MP Robert McKinley said last Tuesday in Ottawa he understood consideration is being given to building a sugar beet refinery in Southwestern Ontario but continued interest depends on a long range protective policy of the federal government. He said an inquiry to AgricultureMinister H. A, Olson 'confirmed the rumor but the company has not been identified. In the House of Commons the Huron member asked if a long- range policy was being considered by government. He was told only that the present policy was an improvement upon that which existed when the Canada and Dominion Sugar Co. Ltd. closed its refinery in Chatham some years ago and the sugar beet industry in southwestern Ontario became history. Later Mr. Olson explained that while Canada continued to import "free sugar" from the world market it has set a minimum of $3.75 per hundred pounds for raw cane. That price is nearly double the price when C & D sugar closed the Chatham plant. Present retail prices of sugar would make the industry attractive to producer and processor alike, but it would be unlikely either would wish to invest heavily in it without long- term assurances. To provide these, it would be necessary for the government to enter long- term world agreements, Farmers should check all their tile systems at least two or three times a year, says M. Sojak, Engineering Division, Ridgetown College of Agricultural Technology, and, he emphasized that, "the most important inspection is in the springtime", The most important part of any tile drainage system is the outlet, In the spring, flowing ice in the drainage ditch or ice and snow sliding down the ditch bank may have damaged or pulled out the outlet pipe. Surface water run-off may erode the ditchbank and undermine the tile outlet. Rodent guards may have pulled off or rusted away. Any damage of this type must be repaired at once or the situation will deteriorate, says Mr, Sojak. Ditches which have silted for a long time should be cleaned out to allow free outlet for the drainage system. A system with a continually submerged outlet will deposit silt in the tile and reduce its efficiency and life. Very few commercial crops send their roots down into tile Ontario Hydro today asked itS 11,700-member employees' union for agreement on what constitutes an emergency situation in the event of a strike, The utility also requested a meeting with union officers to discuss procedures whereby striking employees can handle emergencies, Local 1000 of the Canadian Union of Public Employees applied last month for conciliation services. The union is currently taking a strike vote, although it has said it will strike only as a last resort. Ina letter handed today to W.A. Vincer, president of the COPE local, Hydro's director of labour relations, Gordon McHenry, asked the union to agree to the following definitions of emergency situations: Any interruption of service to hospitals, sewage disposal plants, traffic lights or other services, which jeopardizes the safety or health of the general public. student work activity to some other schools of business across the province next year. The pilot study was proposed by the School of Business Administration, University Of Western Ontario. The project will be under the general direction of Professor C.B. Johnston of the University's School of Business. something it has not done in the past. There are many problems involved in such a course, the minister said, and it would affect all industries which use sugar, Among' these would be bakers, food processors of all kinds and beverage manufacturers. The fed6ral government has subsidized the sugar beet industry for many years, the minister pointed out, and it was not the grower who suffered from low prices in the years prior to the C D refinery shutdown at Chatham. It was the refiner who felt it could not continue. Subsidies that guarantee the grower $15.98 per ton for beets with 121/2 per cent sugar content have continued to be paid to growers in Quebec and Western Canada, but it is unlikely it will be necessary to subsidize the 1971 crop. The return to growers is expected to be above the guaranteed minimum when final payment is made from sale of the refined sugar. The southwestern Ontario Sugar Beet Growers Marketing Association still exists and members of the executive with other interested groups recently met members of the agriculture committee of the Liberal caucus in Ottawa to present a brief urging restoration of the industry in their area. Presentation was not made on the official level but subsequently the agriculture minister was made aware of drains. However, it does occur to some extent, Mr. Sojak noted. These roots die during or after the growing season. Dead roots may clog tile outlets at the rodent guard during spring runoff. These guards should be cleared to ensure proper operation. Wash-ins or blowouts in drainage systems must be repaired immediately. If repairs are delayed, a heavy rainfall could clog the system with soil from the point of damage to the outlet. A tile line that is working can he spotted by the narrow strip of dry ground surfaCe above it, If the strip ends abruptly and it is known the tile extends further, this may indicate a blockage point. Airplane observations are an excellent way of detecting nonoperating lines in a system. Detailed plans of the system are extremely important, and, says Mr. Sojak, aerial photos, even with a standard camera, can be very helpful for comparison with the plans. Any interruption of service which threatens to be of an extended nature, especially if it imposes hardship on an ill or aged person. Any equipment failure which threatens a general breakdown of the power system including generation, transmission and distribution. The union has already declared its willingness to maintain service should negotiations break down and walkouts occur. Its contract expired March 31. Under normal operating conditions, Hydro is convinced it can maintain the power supply in the event of a strike. "We have about 1200 persons from our supervisory staff who can operate the system and do essential maintenance," says Bill Poison, director of operations. "Out we probably can't give normal service in the event of emergency repairs being required," with their own professional development. As soon as the regional offices of his re-structured Ministry were staffed and in operation, said Mr. White, comprehensive data on the opportunities existing in the various regions would be available and future programs started without delay. Further support will be available from other government agencies such as the Ontario ReSefirch Foundation. The pilot study—costing an estimated 4;30,000—will includes market audit and consulting plan development to ascertain the extent and nature of demand for the service in Southwestern. Ontario. Students will have introductory interviews with businessmen interested in the program. Later the student consultants and facultyhoard will meet to decide policy and organize the summer's workload, Each student will be assigned over-all responsibility for two or three firms. "I must stress," said Mr. White, "that this student group is not intended as a source of free labor for companies needing conventional, part-time summer employees." "I am concerned in improving the profitability of small businesses,.. the students will deal with those problems which willlead to immediate as well as long-run improvements n productivity and profits," he concluded.
