Now there is practically no competition on the live stack market and the farmer has. to sell his hogs and cattle to the combine at their own price." That is just ,what has obtained in Toronto. •Rre had the Canadian Pack- ers, Gunns Limited, the Plartis Abat- toir Company bat-toir'Company and the ;William Davies 'Company' amalgamate, four into ,one, and they are called now, the /Canada Packers. The farmers throughout the province of Ontario, unci I believe justly, feel that id ever, there was an octopus, a devil fish vvitli elongated arms squeezing the life out of the fer- nier in the .province of Ontario, it is the Canada Packers of Toronto, and you :can write around the Bead of the devil fish the name of Maclean,if you wish. I am not taking ,my informa- tion from Maclean of Ontario' or from Pat .Murphy or anybody else_ in 'the west; I ann taking my , information arom the ,people whom .I represent, the farmers of North ,Huron ,wbo have confidence enough' in me to send me here to present their views oat various matters to this chamber. I ask the Minister of Agriculture in all kindness to -day to bring forth this marketng board' now. Pt is as easy to appoint a marketing board td -day as a commis- sion, 'Ttie men that are good enough to sit on the commission and go around and stay at the !best hotels and smoke long cigars arid, eat three - dollar meals are good enough to Mork on a marketing bdard right now. to study- the .problem and stay around here white the ,hmperial conference is on, breathing the =atmosphere of im- perial markets and .whatever else is floating in the atmosphere, and then go to work. iIt will take a month to select these men if they are men _ac- quainted with farming operations, and T hope that at least one of them will be an honest -to -God farmer, ;living and toiling on his 'farm and possessing' the farm viewpoint. Yiiu know, Mr. -Chairman, the other day I heard a member of this house using an argu- ment like this: Smith on this side of the road has twenty fat steers. Jones over there has thirty fat steers. Jones happens to have ten steers that are (it for the export Market, and some body comes along and buys those ten steers from Jones. And then the ques- tion was asked, what is he going to do, with the other twenty?'Shoot them, S suppose. He will just do the same with the other twenty as the man on the other side of the road, does with his twenty butcher cattle that are not fit far export, and the fact that these ten export steers have been taken off Jones' hands and sent across the sea gives hint just so much better a mark- et and better price for those that re- main at home. and it shows the Can- ada Packers, and this is a great point with me, that there can be a little com- petition in this country by way - of a little flow across the pond. The Can- ada Packers in this province have the farmer of Ontario at their mercy, and they have crushed him most unmerci- fully. He simply takes whatever they give him. Imagine pdttiag hogs .into Toronto at 3,_ cents. a' pound! I say that the farmer has waited patiently,. wearily watching for the morning. and I believe that this marketing board will be a lamp unto his feet and a light unto his path, and I Grant to commend the \f niter al Agriculture ar his intertiou to establish such a board. I do not know whether he is receiving ,the support' he should or nott,I do not know what might be holding him back. I know not who or what they-' are, but I' say to them on behalf of North Huron: Lay off, aid les us have this marketing board, and let the farmers of the provinte of On- tario lzar4 that.theree i not going to Se any dilly-dallying or fiddling while Rome burns , their word for it that they had made a study of the question and knew more about it CEA age did: The same thing 'happened' in regard to the radio. problem—aud', for the moment I ant not endorsing the finding We had a radio coinniittee that studied this' question lost„ and earnestly, They !brought a report to this house and it was adopted unanimously. It is an open secret that perhaps forty or ,more members representing agricultural constituencies have °given intensive study to'tthis- question of a marketing board and they and all farm. organizations .from coast to coast, --after ten, 'fifteen and. twenty ars in n i *e at a a ye s, to sw sad-„ are unit in asking that a marketing board be es- tablished without delay. When we present our views in the matter, why should there be all this hesitation in the House of ,Commons as to whether the course ,-uggested should he adopt- ed? I have been wont to condemn the Drury administration for government by commission; S hare been accus- toined .to condemn the Ring adminis- tration for government by comanis- sioaand I am not going to'condone such a ,polic`v when we are in office. I. just wish to say that every farm organization that I. know of from coast to coast, having given this sub- ject more intensive study than I am fitted to do, has stated that it is en- tirely in favour of a marketing board. 1'know J. j. Morrison, Whom I look upon as the father almost of .agricul- ture in my province, a man whom '1 have known -for over thirty years, and who when I was trying to be a prin- cipal of a school was farming just outside of that little town. I hare known hint ever since and I may sac that he is the ane man in Canada that I know who has been big enough to refuse the premiership of the banner province of Canada. 'When a man is enough to do that he is big enough to give 'sitting premiers same advice on agriculture. I speak . alter many consu:tat:ors with iiim. I do not wish to delay the house so ,I will simply say that the United Farmers, J. 3. Morrison.11,V. A. Amos and Robert J, Scott from my county; who is the president of the United Farmers. and all.. the -farmers' organizations I know. of are heartily in favour of a market- ing board. I do not like reading news- paper extracts' but I shall detain the house by reading this ane.
