"The Liberal: party -was also raising
interest rates 'when they were in power
according to what the. United Staes did, but
interest rates were raised, to counteract
inflation. In this past year, U.S. inflation
has been running between 12 and 13
i percent and. we've.been 9 percent. I think
it$ time we stopped following the New York
interest rates, l don't think we have to be
' 16% percent," Mr. Craig said.
Hp pointed okit 'how many sales there
were at Christmas and said having a sales
businesS with a high inventory and paying
high interest is a tremendous hardship on
the small business if people aren't buying,
because they are payirig high interest
rates.
For farmers, he says the high interest
rates put. them in a cost squeeze
, because they have to`pay off the bank and
at .the same time be productive. He said
since farmers (in most cases) can't set their
aim prices, it makes it more 'difficult to
product at a profit.
Mr. Craig said he didn't think the
biidget was all bad and said he agreed with'
the deduction for farm wives helping on the
farm and that he agreed with the capital
gains proposal on selling a farm, 'but their
energy part concerned him.
As for the concerns of the Huron-Bruce
riding, Mr. Craig said "I think we have to
maintain farms) the family farm concept,
because this is one of the most productive
areas of Canada. At the same time, we
have to have small business growth in
larder to provide something for our, young
pepple to work with, because we, have to
have.,. some way Of giving them th'e
alteinatlye of staying in thiS;part of the
:country -if they want to, so 'they don't haVe
to migrate to cities or other parts of Canada
to live at a reasonable wage rate,"
Recent polls have, shown. the . Liberal's
way ahead of the Coneervatiyes and when
asked abeut the validity, of such polls
prediaitieg a Liberal win, Mr, ,Craig said,,
"They go' by ,them but you ,never know
till election night. They're supposed to be
accurate within four per centage points, ,19
out of 20 times. I guess election night tells
the tale." ' '
When asked' what people's reaction to a
second election in Stich a short time ,has
been, Mr. Craig said, "It was an election
that nobody seemed to want, but it's here,
and I think people are certainly gearing up
now with' just three weeks to go."
As for possible voter apathy because, it's
the second election in e year and a winter
one; Mr. Craig said he thinks when new
candidates are running, and its a good day,
that most people turn Out quite well for
,Plections, so unless there's a terrible
storm,-• he assumes there will be a good
voter turnout. ,
Mr. Craig added a few comments, one,
other issues saying, that he thinks there is a,
tense world situation. ,
"We have been a respected neutral
country and we have been able to offer
some viewpoints on international decisions
in the past and this is probably more
important than anything because of the
tenseness.

Do you belong to a 4-H
Club? If you do, you'll be
looking forward to our new
spring project in Huron'
County called "Your Corner
of the World". and if you
don't, why not join a club in
your own community right
away, so that you won't miss
out on this delightful, brand-
new project.
"Your Corner of the
World" deals with the club
member's bedroom. We are
going to be looking at
suitable floor plans, choosing
colour schemes in which you
will co-ordinate fabric for
floor coverings, drapes, wall
coverings and accessories for
your bedroom. Club
members, as well, will be
working on macrame as a
craft and completing a
sampler of knots. Then, each
member will have a chance to
put their new-found talent
into practice by making a
free-choice article which can
be an accessory for their
bedroom or an accessory for
themselves.
Macrame is not a hard
craft, It is very easy to learn,
and I am sure that for those
who have done it before, you
will find it a very relaxing
and enjoyable hobby,,
Members will be becoming

interior designers in their
own right by making a design
collection of their favourite
pictures which could apply to
a bedroom, and which will
show their likes and dislikes,
and definite tastes in home
decorating .
For leaders. as well, this
course offers a good intro-
duction to interior design,
and, hopefully, they will be
able to get as much out of the
course as do the members.
If you are 12 to 26 years of
age, boy or girls, living in
either the country or in a
town in Huron County, you
can belong to 4-H, too. All'
you need to do is contact the
Ministry of Agriculture and
Food in Clinton at 482-3428
or Zenith 7-2800.
