FARM FORUMS FARM RADIO FORUM The weekly meetings of the Farm Radio Forum of S.S. No. 4, Darlington, wene brougbt to a close for the season Marcb 29 by a very enjoyable meeting beld in the Sunday Scbool room of Eben- ezer Cburcb. Tbe highlight of the evening was the presence of tbree from tbe Toronto office, Neil Morison, Miss Thrusb and Miss Anderson. After a delicious "pot-luck" sup- per, followed by the radio broad cast, we were entertained by Mrs. H4arold Muir, wbo favored us with two vocal solos, "In tbe Garden of Tomorrow" and "Smiling Througb," and by Mr. H. Osborne, wbose readings, "The Nice Little Canadienne" and "The Shy Boy," greatly deligbted all. Tbree groups were formed to discuss "Farming to Feed the World." The present war is partly the result of some of the *Europeaa countnies not having sufficient food supplies. This made it eas- ier for men like Hitler to bave a following. The militzery faction thought waria shot-cut to pros- perity. In order that the world be fed in an organized way, some of the steps to be taken would be (1) the setting up of an international food board, (2) some financial adjust- ment would have to be madeto enable all countries to take par, (3) an educational pnognam t educate people of the worldt eat proper food, (4) the raising of the standard of living in many countries (this is one of the things for wbicb we are fighting), (5) specializing of countnies in the in- dustries for wbicb tbey are best adapted. The Farm Forum Radio bas definitely improved tbis last year. The suggestions offered last year have been adopted in planning this year's broadcasts. Ia our local forum, although the weatben waî. worse, the meetings have been better. There bave been more interesting discussions owing to opinions being more freely ex- pressed. A greater spirit of neighborliness bas been created. One pleasing feature of our forum~ is that aIl who bave begun to attend bave become enthusiastic members. Suggestions for Fanm Radio Forum broadcasts for next year were (1) more programs of tbe question and answer type, (2) making of practical suggestions. The general feeling was expressed by one group in the wonds: "Car- ry on; we are with you.", The secretary's report for the season sbowed 15 meetings beld with an average attendance of 22. Neil Morrison told of the prob- lems of the radio program; told of the wonk in other forunis; an- swered questions and asked for suggestions for next year's pro- gram.. The secretary was greatly sur- pnised wbea presented with a love- ly gift by the forum. Mrs. Elton Werry and Chas. Osborne took part in the presentation. NEWCASTLE FARM FORUM Newcastle Fanm Forum met at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Orme Parker with 26 present. Howard Allia, coavenor for the evening, divided those present iato tbnee groups for discussion. Question 1: It was considered that the preseat war is a result of the failune to feed the people of the world in an organized way. The common people were not be- ing properly fed in addition ta other ilîs and tbis caused the dis- content and unrest that was trad- ed upon by those wbo were seek- ing power and pivate gain for theniselves. Question 2: An international onganization responsible for a fairen distribution of the food in the wonld. This boand could be compoted of represeatatives from each country and could perbaps be on the pinciples of tbe United Nations Council-now eperating in war-time. SHAW'S FARM FORUM Shaw's Farm Forum closed ts season with a pot-luck supper at the home of Mns. J. E. Allen, on March 29. There were 27 present, who enjoyed the wartime supper. Immediately after all listened ai- tentively to the broadcast over CBL on the subject, "Farming to Feed the World." F. H-. Bennett was convenor. We were formed into four groups to consider the questions: "To wbat extent do you consider that the present war is a résult of failing to feed the people of the world in an organized way?" Findings: After the last war many Euro- pean nations were poorly-fed and generally in a bad position. Our national policies were aim- ed at making eacb nation suf- ficient unto itself, caring little bow the rest of the world fared. We bad no organized way of distribution of the products of the world. Often, instead of belp- ing the poorer nations, we took advantage of them. The people got into a constantly poorer con- dition. Some one came along and told them be bad a way out and tbese depressed people were eager to follow him. Ia this way sucb men as Hitler came to power. Something had to be dune. These leaders wanted more food, more land, more of everytbing and they set out to get ut by force. It may be that if tbe national policies of the more favored countries bad realized their needs, things migbt have been different today. We were asked to comment on the Farm Radio Forum as it served Our community. We considered it a decided success in many ways, by bringing farmers togethen to discuss their problems in a friend- ly and helpful way, by providing constructive broadcasts, giving good subjects for discussion. But we think we should bave more definite action next year and make an effort to get alI farm families interested in the Federation of Agriculture to forni a stronger or- ganization witb a better financial set-up. Mrs. J. E. Allin and J. S. Rick- ard were appointed to answer tbe questionnaire sent out by tbe Federation of Agriculture. Mrs. J. T. Brown moved a vote of thanks to Mrs. Allin and fam- ily for tbeir kind bospitality and alI returned home witb a greater determination to corne back stron- ger next year.
