They would' have chance to become a part of an organization whose main aim has always been to unite all farmers to control their own industry. This one word unite is the subject of much controversy. ThiS word points to the .name, union and implies just that, unity of farmers, If the individuals who berate the farmers union, claiming Darrach, of Oak Ridges — had perfect scores of 120 points. David captured the top spot when the tie was broken by a draw. David, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ross Marshall, is a Grade 12 student at South Huron District High School. He is a five year member and President of the Exeter 4-H Calf Kirkton area youth named top 4-H judge Following is on open letter from Joe O'Neil, president of the toucan local of the Farmers Union of Ontario. Within the last few years the farmers union _come to this district. At last our local farmers have the opportunity to look at an alternative to a department of agriculture sponsored organization trying to push, pull or beg farmers into being David Marshall, 17, of Kirkton, has been named the All-Canadian Holstein junior judging champion, topping 363 4-tI club members from across Canada. T he Holstein Friesian Association of Canada reported David and two other contestants Rosemarie Naegeli, of Bluffton, Alta„ and Norman union stands for labour union tactics and disregard, would translate it, this way, their views might be more tolerant toward a unity of farmers, an absolute necessity at this time. Much credit can be given to the stalwart independent farmers of the past and the few remaining individuals who are still willing to tough it but alone. Farmers can no longer live in the past, no matter how great a virtue is independence. Resisting this fact and the impending regimentation of farmers into "one farm organization" is like refusing to believe that the sun will set tomorrow. The disinterested but worried farmers are waiting for someone to do something about our farm situation. By participation and involvement they can have a direct result in how one farm organization will be built and in the direct effectiveness of it, Without farmers supporting an alternative structure, we will have an organization built to government specifications and under full government control, This will be just what we have asked for. Unless we make a stand on what we need and are prepared to accept responsibilities to see that these needs are met, we must accept this government control, Our government has no other choice, either farmers support and build their own organization or it will be done for them. There seems to be some confusion in the minds of Ontario people on the aims and principles of the Ontario farmers union. The original principle to organize and unite farmers — still stands, through voluntary membership to keep farmers interested and encourage them to participate. The control of our own business by farmers cannot be achieved by non-farmers making policy decisions in our organization. Without control of our own products and marketing boards, our organization cannot be any more than an advisory board as is our present situation. This same situation will also prevail under a Government sponsored one farm organization. There also seems to be confusion on where the farmers union stands on one farm organization. Farmers union has always stood for one organization of farmers. Contrary to what some may think, it does not matter what this organization is called. If union principles and strengths are incorporated into this one farm organization by the fanners of Ontario then there will in fact he no more Ontario farmers union. It will have achieved its original purpose, to unite all farmers to control their own business through their united and organized effort. Farmers Union is presently engaged in offering education to rural Ontario through farm kitchen meetings on "one farm organization." These kitchen meetings offer opportunity to all farmers to express their opinions on how to build one farm organization as well as seeing for themselves how union strength built into this organization will make it effective for farmers. The necessity of a national farm organization is recognized by the union. however if effective principles are built into the Ontario one farm organization, union will immediately become part of it, keeping in mind a national farm organization as the ultimate goal. Now is the time for EVERY farmer to take an active part and show interest in what is being built for farmers. Interest means keeping abreast of news, but printed news does not always show the whole picture. Action means finding the facts and making your voice heard. However unfortunate it may be, our time of independence as farmers is past, our future strength lies in an interested united approach to make sure we build an effective organization. Let us know what is being built, better still let us take part in building it instead of grumbling afterwards that THEY didn't do it right. Above all let us not allow the following plebicite to be rammed down our throats. "So you as a farmer want one farm organization to be your official voice — vote Yes or No." Let us through our support and interest make sure that we have a choice of structures of our organization before we vote. A "Yes" vote on an undemocratic plebiscite such as this will leave us in the same mess as we are in right now. A "No" vote will not be much better as it would only give our government the necessary excuse to say — farmers don t know whether they want it or not. We will give it to them anyway. • "No, no—this way for 'Beginners' Hill' " totes position on one farm group Report from local Union president
