St. Boniface parish in Zurich and chairman
of the Catholic Rural Life Conference, Lon-
don Diocese, was guest speaker when the
Huron County Federation of Agriculture
held their regional meet' September 6 in
the Clinton Public School.
Father Mooney's root on a farm near
Woodsley, depression me pries of living on
potatoes for three winters, remembered
"regret of a father who never in 32 years of
farming managed to buy his own land, and
Father Mooney's personal seven-year ex-
perience among the poor of Peru have all
contributed to the priests's empathy with
the financial and other stresses faced by
farmers, and the importance of preserving
the family farm.
During a talk punctuated with humorous
yet pertinent anecdotes, Father Mooney ex-
panded on his opening theme, "the Church
does not claim to be an expert on technical
problems, but I think we have something to
say about moral problems and principles".
Humans are the only creatures able to stand
back and admire God's creation, but parts
of the world now seem out of order," he said.
"For this, humans must accept responsibili-
ty."
Work, said Father Mooney, is not some
cirsed legacy from Adam and Eve's disobe-
dience, but part of man's cooperation and
co -creation with God. However, people are
supposed to be the subject and not the object
of technology. •
He blamed, "misplaced attitudes, for
judging people by what they have rather
than by what they are. He said wealth car-
ries with it social obligations, as, "you
didn't get it by yourself", adding the earth
on one's farm is a gift to be cared for and
passed on, not ruined.
Father Mooney doubted if any of his au-
dience had experienced -real poverty. He
said the gulf between the first and the third
world, and even between the rich and the
poor in Canada, was widening. He mention-
ed that in 1952, corporations in this country
apaid g9 r� etavaitt.af .tbc' taxesv>aoll f to d ..and --
the wonting man accounted for 25 per cent.
By 1982 corporations were paying only 15
per cent, and the working man's share had
climbed to 52 per cent.
Is the.human race a family of not, Father
Mooney asked. Does money invested in
some countries cause poverty among that
nation's people? Are some people expen-
dable?
He proved that the problem of inequitable
distribution of wealth is age= -Old by quoting
from Isaiah 5:8 - "woe to those who join
house to house, who add field to field, until
there is no more room, and you are made to
dwell alone in the midst of the land".
The solution lies within, Father Mooney
said, with the emergence of the deeper self.
Some reach this stage of maturity at 20,
some at 90, and some never. People can
retreat, refuse to face facts, panic and have
a heart attack, or go home and in a talk with
one's wife decide where one is going, what
life is all about, and whether possessions or
relationships deserve priority.
He gurnmarized By saying the moral prin-
ciples arising from the five points he had
discussed - the human person, money and
possessions, work, poverty, the human
family - could be applied equally to farming,
the economy and social life. His concluding
advice was that we have to mature and
grow, live in harmony with nature, and not
mine the soil but live off the interest, not the
principal.
ELECTIONS HELD
In other business, elections for regional
directors and delegatesand alternates to
the November convention were held.
Paul Klopp was re-elected to represent
Huron South. Delegates are Andy Durand,
Gary Baker and Hugh Rundle. Alternate is
Greg Love.
Bert Sanders was re-elected in Huron
East Central. Delegates are Doug Garniss,
John Nesbit and Joe Phelan, with Carol
Finch as alternate.
Barry Mason will continue to represent
aidurma.tiathweat,..and Walter Elliot, Lee
Cairncross and Jerry Jaretske will be
delegates. The three alternates are Tony
McQuail, Shawn Drennan and Donald
Dowe.
Bob Harrison was elected to replace Hans

and Mel Greig, and Eric Prescott is the
alternate.
Jim McIntosh remains as representative
in Huron North Central. Delegates are
James Armstrong, Wayne Elliott and Nico
Peters. Alternates will be Brenda McIntosh
and Ivan McClymont.
When Huron Federation president Tony
McQuail asked for resolutions to take to the
convention, some of the problems
associated with signing a personal property
security agreement as part of a loan tran-
saction were brought up. The executive was
requested to draft a resolution asking the
OFA to make members aware of the pitfalls
inherent in signing such an agreement, and
explore ways to protect the farmers' in-
terests. The final wording will be checked
with Gordon . Hill. He asked during the
discussion why someone would sign such a
form without thoroughly reading it just
because he was in a hurry.
"Why would anyone be so damn stupid?",
he queried. "We should start pointing the
finger at the farmer; we're not doing him
any favour by shielding him."
Jim McIntosh assured Norm Alexander
that the problem of wetlands being drained,
and the further complication of no compen-
sation for the farmer, was being in-
vestigated by an OFA committee.
Paul Klopp's motion to continue to press
the provincial government to change the
criteria to allow beginning farmers with
some farming experience and some farm
equity to qualify for the beginning farmer
loans was accepted.
Mr. McQuail said individuals may for-
ward more resolutions to the meeting before
September 15.
