This week the Student Council
once again asked the students
for donations for CARE. Last
year the money raised by the
students was sent to a school
in Panama. Just recently a
letter was sent from one of the
pupils in this school thanking
us for our help.
The students were able to
buy pictures of themselves this
week. These black and white
pictures, taken by Mr. Doerr,
cost only $2.25 for the entire
package.

HAN NAM SOO
Airmen adopt
Korean youth
A Korean orphan, Han Nam
Soo, will mark his 10th birth-
day on the day before Christ-
mas, and for the first time in
those 10 years he may glean
some enjoyment from his birth-
day as well as Christmas.
Reason for his change of fate
is the generosity of the RCAF
Centralia Airmen's Club, who
have adopted the youngster un-
der the Foster Parents' Plan.
But besides the usual bene-
fits received under the scheme,
Han Nam Soo's welfare was the
object behind an additional col-
lection by the Airmen and they
are sending a cash gift to the
Korean headquarters, specify-
ing that a Christmas and birth-
day present be given to the boy
and his five-year-old brother,
Chin Soo.

Learned from Clerk Brokee-

which is refundable to council

gard to a right-of-way sought

Instructed the clerk to write
to the department of planning

Discussed the nuisance caus-

pended arms.
The problem of clearing snow
off bridges with low weight
limits in Hay Township came
under discussion at the Decem-
ber meeting of council at which
Deputy-Reeve Delbert Geiger
presided in the absence of Reeve
John Corbett.
Road superintendent K a r 1
Haberer voiced his worry over
clearing the snow and noted
that the heavy snow removing
equipment is forbidden to cross
these non-trustworthy spans.
Council suggested the snow-
plow operator be instructed to
plow up to the bridge from ,both
approaches and that snow-blow-
ing equipment be hired to clear
the bridge platform.
However, there was some
concern expressed over the fact
that such snow-blowing equip-
ment may not be available.
Discussion was also held at
the meeting in regard to the
purchase of welding equipment
for use in the township shed. A
representative of Welder's Ser-
vice, London, quoted the price
for an arc welder at $389.61
and advocated the purchase of
other equipment at additional
cost.
It was noted that the electrical
wiring at the shed would have to
be revamped in order to safely
carry any such new apparatus.
It was decided to seek approv-
al from the proper authorities
and to hold any decision until
next meeting.
INCREASE BUDGET
The department of highways,
Stratford detachment, request-
ed council to review the main-
tenance and construction costs
for the past year and to estimate
as closely as possible the
amount of money that will be
required in 1965, so the depart-
ment may draw up its budget
for the new year.
Clerk Whitney Borkenshire
showed council that $51,000 of
the $55,000 allotment for con-
struction for 1964 was used up
to date, and that only $3,000
of the $36,000 maintenance bud-
get remained.
Council experienced difficul-
ty in estimating expenditures
for the coming year but agreed
to request an additional $6,000,
keeping in mind that more can
be applied for under a supple-
mentary bylaw if the need

— Continued from front page
of the Litany, the breakfast
meeting was held in the Parish
Hall, Dr. Morden, a member of
the committee which recently
issued a proposal for Anglican-
United union, spoke on Church
Unity with the recent plan as a
focus.
He referred to the plan as
"a detonator bomb" intended
to stir up the national commit-
tees on union to some definite
action. In answer to a question
as to the success of this stirring
up, he said - "Well, we got
them all mad at us."
Dr. Morden indicated that the
area of most controversy was
the proposed plan for the unifi-
cation of the two ministries.
This would need a lot more
thinking about by the national
committee, He indicated the
members of the two churches
on the joint committee had
grown in understanding of and
respect for each others tradi-
tions during their meetings to-
gether.
Dr. Morden also stressed
the belief that Anglicans must
not rush into a union with other
denominations on a local level
which might hinder eventual
union with the largest body of
Christians in the world - the
Roman Catholic Church. He said
that some of the most far-
reaching events in the whole
movements to wards Church.
Unity were happening in the
Roman Communion.

A Fine Idea!
PLASTIC The Ontario Bean Dealers'
Association termed "complet-
ely false" recent statements by
directors of the Ontario Bean
Growers' Marketing Board that
there are no troubles within the
industry.
In a prepared statement, re-
leased after a meeting in Lon-
don, the dealers charged the
bean industry is in a state of
chaos at a time when there are
unlimited possibilities for de-
veloping and expanding export
markets to the United Kingdom
at profitable prices to produc-
ers.
"The future of the Ontario
bean industry . . . is in serious
trouble due to the administra-
tive problems of the bean
board," it said.
The dealers said competition
of the bean board's "subsi-
dized" subsidiary, the Ontario
Bean. Growers Ltd., of London,
with private dealers tends to de-
stroy dealers, not encourage
them to expand facilities.
"Ontario Bean Growers Ltd.
has on many occasions under-
sold dealers to the detriment of
all growers and all bean hand-
lers, large or small. Independ-

BASE—only
ent bean dealers are seriously
demoralized by this unfair com-
petition and present policies of
the bean board must be cor-
rected immediately to avoid a
breakdown of marketing and
merchandising of the bean
crop."
Friction between the dealers
and the bean board and its
company has been most evi-
dent during the 1964 crop year.
Recently, the Ontario Farm
Products Marketing Board in-
sisted the bean board make a
complete separation from its
company and let the company
stand on its own feet.
The dealers' statement said
the threat of being put out of
business by the bean board's
company is a constant threat
and has all but stopped devel-
opment of further receiving,
processing and handling facili-
ties.
"The dealers' association
honestly believes in fair com-
petition on an even basis, but
cannot stand up against the un-
fair subsidized direct compe-
tition of Ontario Bean Growers'
Ltd.", the statement said.
It said, if the company did
operate on a profit for the past
two years (as the bean board
said last week), it would be an
ideal time for it to stand on its
own feet with regard to man-
agement and finances.
Dealers said this would elim-
inate criticism of legality and
principal of a regulatory board
subsidizing the operation of a
plant in direct competition with
other dealers. They said they
are "pleased" to see an effort
(by the bean board) to legal-
ize licence fees. (six cents per
hundred pounds from each pro-
ducer) to cover losses.
Dealers said they felt their
existence depends on growers.
"We want to see their (grow-
ers) interests protected and feel
that the dealers operating un-
der pres en t regulations and
against the preferred position of

That's it. would have no room to handle
other crops."
Beans termed surplus on the
market are bought by the board
at the floor price but remain in
dealers' elevators until the
board finds a market for them.
For this the board pays deal-
ers a handling fee — now 85
cents per 100 pounds which
covers handling, processing,
storage, shrinkage and interest
on dealers' money.

Ontario Bean Growers Ltd. is
most detrimental to all grow-
ers and the entire bean indus-
try."
Dealers charged lack of co-
operation on the bean boards'
part is obvious in day-to-day
routine matters. It cited such
things as crop information not
being available when requested,
"Total growers' sales fig-
ures given to us in past years,
which are of the utmost impor-
tance in assessing domestic and
export markets, were not re-
leased until the week of Dec.
1, at the same time the (St.
Lawrence) Seaway was closing
for the winter season," the
statement said.
At price negotiation time,
higher floor prices proposed
by the dealers were rejected by
the board. Negotiations went to
arbitration when dealers were
unable to get prior settlement
on terms and conditions of take-
over by the board of surplus
beans.
"The bean board failed to ad-
vise the dealers of the lowering
of the licence fee (from eight
to six cents) and also failed to
advise the floor price set by the
board of arbitration until well
after a large portion of the crop
had moved from growers'
hands."
In a further charge, dealers
said the bean board issued an
order after '70 percent of the
crop had been marketed, advis-
ing that the handling charge
would be reduced 15 cents per
100 pounds from what it had
been for the past seven years.
"This order further stated
that the bean board would nei-
ther guarantee to pay for nor
take off our hands any beans
sold to them from the 1964 crop
prior to April 30, 1965. Expro-
priation of dealers' facilities
and finances in this manner
could seriously hurt growers of
corn and soybeans, as elevators
