This was the first of 13 recommendations made in a brief presented to Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau and other members of the Government. The Alliance, the co-ordinating body for the nation's pro-life groups, also recommended that hospital therapeutic abortion com- mittees should be made subject to legal controls and sanctions to ensure that they implement the law responsibility. "Our -Most basic demand,'", the alliance brief said, "is for amend- ments, to the law which will guarantee equal protection to the child conceived but not yet born." The brief was entitled: Stop the Killing: Protect Canada's Unborn Children. commodore ELECTRONIC CALCULATOR "Shirt Pocket" Electronic Calculator For the business man . . . the student . . the housewife . . . the ideal pocket calculator, BUDGET PRICED for EVERY POCKET This Calculator is a four-function cal- culator; adds, subtracts, multiplies, divides.

AMBERLEY 11 • Ton upon ton of seed grain is going into the soil at this time and 'every right thinking - farmer is optimistic that this will be the year of high yields .and at the same time high prices. He has to think that way or he. will get discouraged and give up. It doesn't work that way very -often, for if the yield in our country is high,,it usually is the same in other grain producing countries and we are faced with an oversupply, which in turn depress- es prices. Despite the cries 'of those that are really concerned about feeding the unfortunates of this• world, high yields and high Supplies do not avert starvation. The price of one ton of wheat 'for instance, even if it is way below out production cost, is in many cases more than the bread-winner in some countries earn in a whole year. So if they could 'buy it, it would still leave their families starving on an insufficient amount of low protein rations with nothing left for clothing and housing 'and birth control devices. An answer would in many cases be to supply them with know-how, quality seed and ,fertilizer as well as simple hand- operated machinery and irrigation Systems. In that case they could often feed their families and sell surpluses to their own countrymen for clothing and housing. If at the same time we give their countrymen grain at no or little cost, it ruins their internal market and our well-intentioned. gesture will do more harm than- good: This type of help should -be given, but only in emergencies arising out of natural disasters. The cry of some vegetarian organizations to con- demn the eating of meat because it takes away grain from the starving in the world, is therefore completely irresponsible. Even if no more grain was fed to beef an31 hogs and poultry, it wouldn't put an ounce of bread on a table in the Sahely or in Bangladesh. Dr. Bruce Taylor, an animal scientist at the University of Arizona, has come up with some interesting figures on beef. A ton of corn contains 160 lbs. of cereal protein. This ton fed to cattle produces 112 lbs. of animal protein. If you convert this in, protein utilized by the human body, each comes out exactly the same at 90 lbs. utilized protein. I would rather eat meat than' torn. How about you?
