Officiais o! the Ontario Cream Producers' Marketing Board have expiained that goodwill is important ta the farmer and one way to maintain goodwill is ta check price fluctuations. One sure way o! cbocking fluctua- tions is by maintaîning a floor, and maintaining that floor at a level wbicb doos not burden the consumer nor cut into the pro- ducer's pocket too far The goodwill angle * extends too, ta industrial workers, offi- ciais Pointed out, sineo the but- ter floor constitutes something of an income guaranteo for the farmer-the sort of tbing urban xvorkers are constantly seoki.ng throub their unions.
