GORDON GREEN On May 7 of this year the U,S, House of Representatives voted an overwhelming no to a bili designed to make the country go metric, and in the minds of most, congressmen that's the end of the argument for some time to come. All of which should have caused Canadians to: wonder why the Metric Commission .set up in 1972 by their own government should continue to function as if this count* could cheerfully switch over to metres, kilograms and degrees sius when our neigh- bors sou of the border' still measure the = to of the nation in yards, pounds aiivith. the same old thermometer at grandad used to hang up in the woodshed. The fact of the matter is that ourgovernment took it upon itself to create still another body of civil servants to make Canada metric by 1980, a big body this time with eleven steering com- mittees and 70 sub -committees, and a bureaucracy so large and • so well paid as this one isn't going to admit that its function is now highly questionable. So we have been listening to a lot of whistling in the dark of late. Says Jacques Lapaime of the Quebec Commit- tee, "Oh, I don't think the U.S. 'decision is going: to affect us here. After ,a11, industri wjl1 ;take the lead in the Staff Mand ,the gov- ernment swill have to follow." It is true of course that in the U.S. industry is taking the lead in the attempt to make the country go metric. Big, big industry, that is,. Big multinationals like Gen- eral- Motors, which are doing an increasing percentage of their business in metric countries stand to profit a great deal by an America gone metric, and sone of them are launching metric campaigns within their own fac- tories. Now if, as one famous General Motors President once declared, "What's good for General Motors is good for America", why the current hesitation on the part of • ego #s �/�� saw v skis 40 tea 144 eta . tie S4 �/prke�t Q►, ;4" rt. ��� ,��hn�r tl �ae�/e -11,4" koot • /1 e. cook v dt 'yo `bysl Fd %ft y At, �c ata /► d r (99 964 jn * e° s* 511-* zee 41,e**,� asy.egoha°°ysats(k4e aeary�hot, dfn/°kefopa /6foff/o/�s�rSvOr €47 4/ oho ' �biy� chi/s`!o 'ritzy et 1i /4t 449 l se,ot*°I a/��eAe °� syt1sit7afo e/4etjc b • 6 4sp�y°fit'+hdsh4a 'W S. ipvg,ns 0°b INDUSTRIES Wilhirts• A•w.w., ► Chat., ow. fY/�po'?ases4/ j�®�4°�ate! ?�� D�de°ry/�pos °r'y046�eoc%f�intt • U.S. Congress to go along with metrification? The answers, it seems to me, are good enough and they are suminned up pretty well by Mark Roberts, economist for the giant AFL-CIO. "It is a case of the multinationals against the little guys," he says. "The multinationals t may, well be able to afford the tremendous cost of ,converting, but the little guy can't. For our tradesmen alone the cost of a new= set of tools might run as high as $3,000. And as far as most of them are con- cerned, there,isn't a reason in the world why they should have to change." And just to make sure that the U.S. government knows how organized labor stands on the matter, Roberts also warns that "this is essentially a private sec- tor matter" and; he says that the government has no right to be- come involved. He even goes so far as to warn the government that it would be violating its own anti-trust legislation if it did get involved. No wonder that the U.S. Con- gress turned thumbs down on the metric bill. But when are we Canadians going to retire our own metric evangelists? Or* are we supposed to believe.,that compa- niesii trading across the• ,border can use -two seliarate systems of measurement and that we can buy a quarter inch bolt to fit a .6 centimeter nut? Agricultural Tidbits With Adrian Vos The Kitchener -Waterloo region needs water and lots of it. Mush- rooming growth demands it for domestic and industrial use. Canada is the country with the most of this resource in the entire world. However, instead of look- ing to the Great Lakes, they want to dam the Nith River in Oxford County, flood about 9,000 acres of choice crop land and pipe it into their system. I happen to know the Nith River and all through the summer there is about as much water in it as in a good sized creek. At best it would just help out a little bit and then they would still have to go to a Lake Erie pipeline. It seems from here that people don't care one bit about food pro- ducing land until they themselves are hit. But I bet that they are the satine people who holler loudest about higher food prices.Luckily there are some in government op- posing the move, notably Agri- culture Minister Stewart and En- vironment Minister Newman. Let's hope that their views pre- vail. 000 Just to show how efficient On- tario's farmers have become, On- tario's farmland declined from 3.5 acres per person in 1941 to 1.4 acres now, but farm production is higher now than it ever was. One shouldn't think however that there is no limit to what the farmer can do. If the revived plan for a power plant in Huron County is approved, it would cer- tainly mean that, due to in- creased traffic pollution, hun- • dreds of acres of white bean- land will have to be shifted to other less protein -producing crops. It bothers me some that the struggle to preserve land is left largely to the farmers and that the people in the towns and cities, who will be the first to be hurt, are net heard from when food production is threatened. The Consumers' Association of Cana- da devotes a good deal of time to fighting farmers for lower food. prices, but forget the struggle to protect the base of food produc- tion.
