American corn, due :tp certain subsidies paid to Atr;eritan farmers, and due Eo, very favorable shipping rates, U.S. corn can be delivered in Kingston or points east, cheaper than corn from Southwestern Ontario. This left two choices to gov- ernment: either they could give freight assistance to Ontario growers, or they could have placed an import quota fee on the U.S. corn to the equivalent of the American subsidy to the farmer. This, then, becomes a ques- tion of whether the powers - that -be think it advisable to keep the price of corn low to the buyer, or to let it find a true market level.

In the same letter we are told that due to an urgent request from fluid milk producers, the government wilt pay the I2 - cent subsidy on butter manu- factured from surplus fluid milk for the. next year. This is to give producers and proces- sors time to readjust their pro- dhctiona,and quotas to a more realistic level. I have also received a copy of a few sections relating to the Game and Fisheries Act that are of interest to farmers. "Land may be acquired under the Public Works Act' for pur- poses of management, perpetua- tion and rehabilitation of wild- life resources in Ontario." In other words, farm land can be expropriated for the above pur- pose. "No person shall, without authority, post 'No Trespassing' signs relating to hunting or fish- ing." This is interpreted to mean that the farme,r must first obtain permission from the Minister or his officials before he shall undertake to post his land. It would seem that the clause is given a great deal of free- dom to hunters and fishermen. While I have had little diffi- culty in this matter, there have been cases quoted at OFA meet- ings where farmers have suf- fered definite serious losses due to irresponsible hunters, and the changes in the -act seeffi"to be to the disadvantage of the land owner. With the announcement of the vote on the Milk Marketing Plan on May 31, this office is endeavouring to obtain a copy of the plan and we will en- deavour to give you all infor- mation as quickly as possible.

ROE FARMS LIMITED ATWOOD, ONTARIO TBLItPHONfi 350211 eat tin FALLOW By F'AIRBAIRN As a direct result of recom. mendations of the vertical inte- gration committee set up by Ontario's Minister of Agricul- ture, Hon. W. A. Stewart, three amendments have been made in the Farm Products Marketing Act. While these will not com- pletely eliminate dangers farm- ers .see in vertical integration, they do constitute a step in the direction of bringing V.I. under control. Mr. Stewart had re- cognized soon after he assumed office that marketing plans would become relatively in et, fective if processors were • al- lowed to grow produce outside existing marketing plans. Speci- fically referring to canners, the minister stated that any proces- sor or canner wishing to pro- duce his own product for which a marketing plan existed should be treated as any other produc- er or grower. There has been quite a start- ling increase in the vegetables grown by processors in Ontario —that is vertical integration. In many cases, marketing plans for these vegetables are in force but the processors ignored them. There are also co- operative enterprises, such as COPACO (a meat packing oper- ation) whose members raise produce, process it and market it outside existing marketing, plans. This latter situation is pitting farmer against farmer and, we suspect, posed quite a problem for the committee studding V.I. It must also pose a problem for any government trying to decide what legisla- tion will benefit most farmers. These new amendments do not answer all the questions but obviously Mr. Stewart and his colleagues hope • they will solve,some of the problems. The fist -one should protect the farmer who takes an active part in farm organization ef- forts and producer marketing boards. While processors will undoubtedly deny it, there is evidence to indicate that some growers have been cut off (lost contracts) because they said too much or played a prominent role in organizing growers, Crit- icism of contracts which were not in the best interest' of the producers is not considered pro- per . conduct for their growers by some processors. And, "not in the best interest of produc- ers" means contracts designed to protect or favor the proces- sor only. The admendment to the OFPMA ensures that a pro- ducer cannot be cut off without the processor showing. `just cause'. The second amendment re- quires that everyone growing or raising any regulated pro- duct pays the local board any licence fees payable by produc- -ers: The -exact -wording• of this one requires "any person who produces and processes a regu- lated product to furnish to the Board or the local board (Ed's Note: producer board) .state- ments of the amounts of the regulated product processed and to pay to the local board or marketing agency, as the case may be, any licence fees pay- able by producers." The V.I. committee was asked to study only the effects of vertical inte- gration in the vegetable indus- try and, while this amendment would appear to be aimed speci- fically at canners, it would ap- pear that it could be applied, equally to the case of C.OPACO ' which has been processing mem- bers' hogs and not paying the 40 cent levy to the Ontario Hog Producers Marketing Board. The third amendment gives the Farm Products Marketing Board ,,power to regulate and control agreements (contracts) entered into by producers of a LAWN ROLLING The Seaforth Bowl- ing Club Lawn -Rolling service is now available.

This is the one •that could do the most to limit the expansion of verti- cal integration. Some growers have been forced to rent land to processors in order to se- cure a contract for themselves. There have also been other it- ems in the fine print that most farmers considered unfair and this amendment should lead to their elimination. meek Chapter, IODE, Goderieh, was received.

Without the protection of insurance, today's crowded highways would be virtually empty — if, indeed, they had been built in the first place. Without' automobile insurance, for instance, how many of today's 6,000,000 Canadian drivers would risk the liability claims which a single accident might bring? Without other types of insurance, who would dare gamble many millions of dollars to build cars in the first place? If thepars were built, how many dealers could dare risk. having possibly hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of vehicles in his care without insurance, protection? Last year, automobile insurance companies in Canada paid out more than a half million dollars a day in claims — $190,000,000 in the year. Without insurance, the motoring public would be faced with the impossible financial risk of out-of-pocket ,payments- of this mammoth accident bill.
