INUED MAT A 4th. 1050 Tac CANAntAJI TATESMAN. 9OWMANVULL!. OWTAWO POADMASTERi Legislative Com. on Conservation Issues Report Aller a Year's Travel 0 Study in Canada and United States One of the most important doc- uments ever to be tabled in the Ontario Legisiature is the report of the Select Committee on Con- servation which has just com- pleted a year of travel and study throughout the province. The Committee, headed by P. C. Fletcher S. Thomas, of Elgin County, included Liberal Leader Farquhar Oliver and C.C.F. Lead- er E. B. Jolliffe, as well as a number of other members of the Legisiature, who are well-versed in regard to agricultural prob- lems. The Committee travelled a total of 6,000 miles at a cost of $25,000 and held countless hearings at which representative organizations presented t h e i r briefs. Jl.NOTICE TO0 F ARBNqERBS!

Phone Collect to:- Bert Cresswell BOLTON - PHONE 658 The report was unanimous and if adopted, its recommendations twould require seven new pieces of legisiation, 14 amendments to existing provincial and federal statutes and about 50 adminis- trative changes. Broadly, it is divided into three parts: Water Conservation, Reforestation and Agriculture. The question of water supply is one of the most vital with which the Committee had to deal. It points out that flot only agriculture but urban municipalities, business men and industry are concerned about this matter. Nearly one-haîf of South- ern Ontario's. population of two millions relies on water pumped from weils, declares the report, which also adds that the chief industrial cities of this section find their "sole limiting factor now for industrial and population expansion is water supply." Pointing out that altogether 110 municipalities depend on wells for water, the report de- clares: "The problem of failing ground water supplies undoubt- edly goes back to the clearing of land and the drainage o! large water storage areas which in the past have recharged the soil wîth snow and period rains. The time is fast approaching when some- thing drastic will have to be done. In Western Ontario springs and water storage areas are receding or drying up. Deep wells of in- land cities are draining water from shallow farm wells. It is the view o! this committee that we cannot permit continued drill- ing o! new wells without regard for the effect on other wells or the disturbance of reservoirsý about which so littie is known."

While Ontario apple growers may not be af!ected to the same extant by the British market col- lapse, they have likewise suffer- ed from the inevitable decline in price. Evidentiy they do not rate for a governmant handout. More- over, if apple and wheat growars are going ta receive government largesse, why should tobacco growers, whose produef is also a!- fected by shorfage o! dollars in Britain, not similarly receive governmant compensation for the hoss which they ara sustaining?
