Bl: OVER CONSTRUCTED FOR RURAL NEEDS, ENGINEER'S CLAIM Members of the Ontario Good Roads Association were told at their annual convention in Toronto, that many On- tario counties are paying for expen- "|sive road construction which their |} taxpayers do not require. The opinion was expressed from a paper prepared by J. G. Cameron, En- gineer of Stormont, Dundas and Glen- garry counties, and read in his ab- sence by'J. A, P. Marshall, chief muni- ways Department. . Mr. Cameron's story 'was that counties devoted to agriculture would not require roads to c¢arry loads "| heavier than 10,000 pounds. Under the present system, he stated, roads if they were class "B" roads, loeal traffic and no more. Officers elected for 1947 included: £ | president, W. J. Moore, Renfrew; vice- 5 presidents, A. J. Emery, Waterloo and | V. H. Timmins. egret 55 | DURHAM COUNTY FARM FORUM --4FINDINGS FOR FEBRUARY The County Forum seems to have had quite a-field day in discussing the future prices of farm produce.

First they want an equitable monetary system so [ter that all nations 'can buy; second, the cost of production musf be met and if the gonsumers cannot pay the price then the government will have to sub- sidize and, third, apart from the above agreed on subsides, they don't like the long, costly road from producer to consumer and they are beginning in Durham County to study co-operative' as a means of doing away. with this long road. It also seems to be the opinion of farm forums throughout. - the Province as well as in Durham that as soon as farm produce goes up in price .there is a general howl, but nothing is said when the price of beer, tobacco and pop is increased. : J.
