,1111e.,C„ost persuasion
LaSeYetit thl'e Bei tish 'Tra nsport
Ministry spent $1.7million on
a seat belt campaign which had
all the subtlety of a sledge
hammer. Television and
newspaper advertising in Lon-
don and in Yorkshire showed
in full color the unbelted vic-
tims' of automobile collisions.
Whether or not the advertising
campaign had a lasting effect
on persuading drivers to buckle
up, has not yet been deter-
mined. The Ontario Safety
League reports that although
the Royal Automobile Club
favors education over com-
pulsion, a movement is growing
for mandatory seat belt
legislation. "Possibly some
15,000 deaths and serious in-
juries every year could be saved
if people wore their belts,"
Labor member Leslie Huckfield
told the House last year.
Ministry officials conceded
privately' that the cost of per-
suasion was prohibitively ex-
pensive and that British
drivers would soon be forced to
wear belts or pay a fine in
court.

Huron County farmers atten-
ding the Huron County
Federation of.Agriculture
meeting in Clinton last Thur..
sday night reacted angrily
when they 'heard reports that
nitrogen based fertilizer was
being shipped out of the
province into Michigan.
Vince Austin, of Ashfield
township reported seeing six
large tractor trailer trucks
loaded with fertilizer heading
across the international bridge
at Sarnia in about one hour
last week. This, he said, was
happening at a time when
nearly all fertilizer supply com-
panies in Huron county are
unable to fill orders to farmers
placed, in some cases, in
January. The local suppliers, it
was pointed out, have had their
orders cancelled by their own
suppliers.
Mike Miller, field crop
specialist 'with the ministry of
agriculture's Clinton office
warned that crops will be badly
hurt if proper amounts of
nitrogen fertilizer are not ap-
plied.
The angry farmers, faced
with shortages in fertilizer on
their own farms, discussed
picketing the international
bridges to stop the flow of fer-
tilizer from Ontario where it is
a record $150 to $190 a ton at
present to Michigan where the
price is nearly $300 a ton,
"We've been nice guys too
long", stated one.
In the long run, the' more
moderate group prevailed and
voted instead to send a
resolution to the Ontario
Federation of Agriculture, Ot•i.
tario Agricultural Minister
William Stewart, Federal
Minister Eugene Whelan and
ail local Members of
Parliament.
For fast action, the reports
were telephoned to the various
bodies on Firday.
Some of the blame for the
shortage of fertilizer was laid
at the feet of the fertilizer com-
panies who had earlier
promised there would be suf-
ficient supplies for this year,
though at higher than normal
prices. But blame was also put
on some farmers, particularly
in the Chatham area who had
bought fertilizer earlier and
were selling it in the U.S.
Reacting to the story, Mr.
Stewart said Friday in an•inter-
view •with the London Free
PreSs that he had rumours of
the shipments of fertilizer out
of the country but was "not

Kinsmen Bicycle Rodeo
The Kinsmen Club of Hen-
sail wishes to thank parents for

Club would like to remind
parents that there are still

could be ,returned as soon as
possible or bring them to the

time in the week of May 6 to
10, a written test will be given

ded to the road test for a final
result.
