The Board reported the to- bacco Arbitration Board did not set a minimum average price for the whole crop as has been done in recent years. Instead minimum prices were set for each grade of tobacco as defin- ed under the Farm Products Grades and Sales Act except- ing the grades that faîl within the classification cf nondescript. If these prices were applied ta the quantities and grades cf to- bacco sold from the 1957 crop they would result in a minimum. average price cf approximate- ly 52c per lb. for the 1958 crop. IThe 1957 award established a minimum average price cf 49c per lb. plus lc per lb. te the grower for grading. Since al tobacco must- now be graded the lc per lb. service charge for grading allowed in prior years has been incorporated into the 52c per lb. price this year. Payment for tieing to- bacco was nlot covered in the award. No buying companies took part in the arbitration. The Tobacco Arbitration Board was comprised of Judge F. M. Grif- fiths, Welland, Chairman; Mr. H. E. Harris, Q.C., St. Cathar- ines, representing the growers;, and Mr. John W. Brooke, Q.C., Toronto, appointed by the Farrn Products Marketing Board to represent the buyers in defauit of the buyers appointing a re- presentative. The Arbitration Board's decision was a maj or- ity award with Mr. Brooke, the buyers' representative unable to concur in the minimum pri- ces for the grades of tobacco for the reasons given in bis dis- senting report. Copies of the award and thc dissenting report are bcing distributed by the Farm Produets Marketing Board to ail the tobacco buyers and ta the Ontario Flue-Cured Tabac- co Growers' Marketing Board, Tillsonburg, Ontario.
