Carmel girls win ball title farmers don't even know that market share quotas are being implemented, let alone any of the details. Mr, Langdon stated that his committee intends to inform as many producers as possible of the plan before it is commenced in Ontario, which it is expected will be this coming October. "We are also dedicated to, and will intensify, an N.F. U. campaign to improve returns to dairy farmers across Canada," stated Mr. Langdon. He said that a major increase in the price of industrial milk is long overdue, and believed farmers are going to insist that an adequate price be established. Extensive imports on dairy products and the pending implementation of production management by M.S.Q. are pressures for increased prices. "There is no reason," he said, "that farmers should accept controlled production without assurance of adequate price. Increasing the price now would have little, if any, effect of increasing production, especially if producers know they will be under market share quotas in the next dairy year." Mr. LangdOn said that the base price for any milk should be not lower than $5.50 per cwt., with classified pricing at higher levels according to the end use, or the dairy product to which it is processed . Increased prices to consumers would not be necessary in some products and would be minimal in others. He said that the spread now, between what the producer receives and the consumer pays is entirely out of line. "It is time the efficiency level demanded of farmers are also accepted by other segments of the industry," he said. Referring to market share quotas, Mr. Langdon said that the National Farmers Union is recommending that quota maximums be established on the same basis as the Canadian Dairy Commission has maintained for subsidy under the current dairy policy; 400,000 lbs. yearly for a single farm operation and 700,000 for a two man or partnership operation. Mr. Langdon said that the N.F.U. believes farmers themselves should have the right to decide what the maximums will be, in a democratic way.

Goodness smiles to the last. Emerson The National Farmers Union has outlined to the Candian Dairy Commission conditions that must be met for dairy farmers before Market Share Quotas (M.S.Q.) are enforced in Ontario and Quebec. Two of the main points were; substantially increased prices to producers and, reasonable maximums on quotas. The C.D.C. was also advised that enacting Market Share Quotas, a major change in dairy policy, with very little consultation of dairy farmers was a deplorable fact. Market Share Quotas will allocate the amount of milk that each producer can sell on the domestic market. Production over this amount would sell at world prices. Chairman of the N.F.U. Dairy Committee, Wm. Langdon of Lakeside, Ontario, said that many Barfield Brussels Drumbo
