| Farmers Are Opposed To The Oshawa Times. Sama See ao en MEMBERS ATTENDING the emergency meeting of the Ontario Farmer's Union here Monday to discuss marketing Farmers Union Opposes Aid To Horse Breeders The Ontario Farmers' Union, at a meeting held in Oshawa Monday, rejected a resolution supporting an Egg and Fowl Producers Marketing Plan sponsored by the Farm Pro- ducers Marketing Board Instead, the delegates voted for an alternative plan which calls for the OFU to suggest changés to the board in the hope of reaching an agreement on a similiar plan. The Egg and Fow! Producers Marketing Plan which will be voted on by Ontario farmers between June 22, and 26, has its main aim to increase and improve the marketing of eggs and fowl, through promotion, research and education in pro- duction, distributing and market- It is an attempt to in-|ter start bringing an increase| throughout f crease the demand for eggs and| fow] throughout the province and) does not deal with supply and! price. THREE CATEGORIES Members who opposed the! boards confer. over resolu- tions, The meeting resulted in an ultimatum being sent to the marketing boards demand- {plan fell into three categories; ithose who are opposed to those who don't. think the plan goes far enough and wou'd like to see the board deal with sup- ply and prices; and those who are against it because they fear the board will go too far and demand more power at at a later date. The résolution formed part of a general policy debate which continued throughout the day and concerned the unoin's atti- tude towards marketing boards. The rejection of the resoluiion has been interpreted as a sign of growing dissatisfaction with- in the union about marketing boards. "The marketing boards throughout the province had bet- to farmers before they can ex- pect us to support them," one member said.

As the Ontario producers' prof- its tend to be lower than his competitors because of higher feed and housing costs, it was hoped that the Hog Producers Marketing Board be given con- trol of all live or processed pork imports into the province to en- sure they would not be sold low- er than the Ontario price. The resolution was found to be un- constitutional as the BNA Act prohibits inter-provincial tariffs. | An alternatve resolution call- jed for the union to 'promote jaggressively for the implement- LAW GRADUATE jation of a national hog-produ- \cing plan with the power to} |supervise imports and exports". | Members also called for a vote the. province on} akonass' the present system of} marketing hogs should be con-| tinued. This was initiated by: an junsteady hog market, in which prices fluctuate several dollars jin a few hours. |OPPOSE HORSE SUBSIDY | The members resolved unani-} mously to exert their greatest influen¢ée to stop the govern- ment's practice of spending $70,- 000 a year to promote the breed- ing of race horses as part of an agricultural scheme.

This was claimed by annoyed farmers attending the meeting of the Ontario Farmers Union held in Oshawa Monday The members claimed in a resolu- tion that they were fed up with the premiums and other gim- micks which they find in soap, detergent and cereal products. Not only did they feel they| ° were not getting proper value SECOND SECTION OSHAWA, ONTARIO, TUESDAY, JUNE 9, 1964 PAGE THIRTEEN for their money, but their chil-| dren had developed an_ insati- able desire to collect these prizes. "I_ know one mother of five who has to buy five different types of breakfast cereals for her youngsters to prevent a civil war breaking out in the family,"" one member claimed. "They don't bother changing kids. any more," grumbled another member, "you just switch cereals." The union resolved to carry out a word-of-mouth campaign against such enticements. 2 Injured In Crash LINDSAY -- Mrs. Dolina Mit- © |chell of 638 Dean avenue, Osh- awa, is in satisfactory condi- tion at Ross Memorial Hospital with fractured pelvis, fractured ribs and multiple cuts and bruises sustained in a one-car crash near Cameron Sunday.

Ajan Heritage, international representative of the Interna- tional Typographical Union, far right, said the 28 com- posing room employees were striking in an effort to gain a job security clause in union contract. -- Oshawa Times Photo Printing Compositors Seek Job Security Contract negotaitions between General Printers Ltd., and Local 969 Oshawa Typrographical Un- ion, ended Monday with a strike by 28 composing room employ- ees. Alan Heritage, international representative of the Internat- ional Typrographical Union, said today that the men struck the plant because of the manage- ment's failure to guarantee job security clauses. Local 969 be- gan negotiating in January, for the first time since a strike fail- ed in 1941. Company spokesmen claimed that the Local's work demands} were unacceptable in the com- mercial printing industry. The local also refused to discuss wages and spurned a union shop provision offered by the com-| pany, stated H. H. Cowley, gen- jwould not be discussed by the union until the job security is- sue was settled, |PICKET LINE HONORED |. The picket line was honored /by 16 non-union pressmen on their arrival for work this morn- ing. The company noted that other union members in the company, about 30 bookbinders, crossed the picket line and re- ported for work. Picketing began at 4:30 p.m. and continued until 2 a.m. res- uming at 7 a.m, today. Mr. Her- itage pointed out that a picket line would be thrown around the plant as long-as it was in oper- ation, A cruiser with two constables of the Oshawa Police Depart- ment was parked in the Post Office parking lot this morning. Deputy-chief D, F. Ferguson company president, is as fol- lows: "The dispute in this first agreement centres on the Inter- national Union's work rules and restrictions on the use of tele- typesetter tape supplied by cust- omers. These demands are in line with daily newspaper con- tracts, but are unacceptable in the commercial printing field. "Jurisdiction demands, which go beyond the bargaining unit set by the Ontario Labour Re- lations Board and would affect other departments of the com- pany, have been refused. Wages have not been an issue because of the refusal of the union to discuss them. "The union refused a local agreement with full union shop provisions offered. by the com- pany in favor of an American In Board Policy Lad . icent news item which claimed Decide Site to on June 5. A graduate of | oral aa Underwritten. Contract. Ontario Marketing boards were given a sweeping ultima- tum by the Ontario Farmer's Union at its emergency one-day meeting in Oshawa Monday. Over 300 angry farmers,| meeting in the United Auto- workers Union Hall, backed a resolution demanding immedi- ate changes in the policy of the marketing boards, and made their continued support of the boards conditional on acceptance of these demands.| The conditions were. (a) a plebiscite of farmers be taken to investigate their wishes con- cerning the boards; (b) the support of the marketing boards for the OFU programs; (c) the support of the boards to help the OFU achieve parity of farm prices up to 100 per cent; and (d) the Ontario Farm Products Maketing Board must generalize its controls and have a plan was given solely to the Minister of Agriculture and his appointed Farm _ Products Marketing Board, without con-| cent of the farmer by secret} ballot. "Unless a strong protest is made," Mr. Tait said, "farm- ers have lost their right to decide whether or not they wish to join a compulsory Market- ing Plan or to get out of a Marketing plan. Our authority is growing and marketing has been spirited away without even a chance to protest." A heated debate followed when the original resolution, which was defeated, to op- pose marketing boards to the point of dissolution was intro- duced. Several members charged that the marketing boards had gone over the heads of the independant farmer and had but one board for each pro- duct. At present there are 14 marketing plans covering 27 crops. ASKS STRONG PROTEST A brief submitted by Lyal Tait, of the Ontario Flue-cured tobacco Grower's Marketing Board claimed tha: such marketing organizations had become autocratic since the original Farm Products Market- ing Act was repealed in 1963. At that time authority to im- pliment changes or to revoke Bridge Club High Scores The winners and high scores of the games played last week by the members of the Osh- awa Golf Club and Oshawa Du- plicate Bridge Clubs were: GOLF CLUB North and South -- Mrs. H.

"This resolution is loaded with dynamite," claimed Mr. Tait, "I hope you table it and \I hope you never dig it up |again."" | President of the Farmer's |Union, M. L. Tebbutt, said that | wile the marketing boards jwere useless to the smal' farmer at the present time, jthey could still be salvaged, and for that reason urged mem bers to vote against the reso- lution for opposition. After the meeting, Union Chairman Walter Miller said that they had now put it on the line with the marketing board and it was now up to these boards to satisfy the farmer. Sentence Pair To Take 'Cure' | Two men with a total of seven intoxication convictions were Monday. sentenced to three months each in the Ontario Re- formatory in Mimico where they will take the alcohol "cure", Melville Ferguson, 35, of no \fixed address, was found drunk outside his wife's home on Divi- sion street, June 6, Magistrate's Court was Monday's conviction was fourth. James Sanford Henry, 45, of no fixed address, was arrest- ed June 6 on King: street east, jnear Division street. It was his 'third conviction. Andrew Barclay, 44, 133 Fern- |hill boulevard, was, jailed for seven days for being drunk in |charge of his auto. | Police testified that Barclay told. his car collision at the intersection bons street May 30 Magistrate F. S. Ebbs Barclay had been drivig for 30 jyears without a conviction, Oshawa} E. P. Taylor had received $40,-| 000 of this money for his racing stables. | Members of the union felt that much of the province's crime, gambling and book making was associated with the race track. They claimed the money should be spent to help subsidize the small farmers of the province. One of the guest speakers, Al Gleave, national chairman of the Farmers' Union for Saska- toon, said that retailers today were becoming increasingly monopolistic, and because of} this, the independent farmer 'is not getting his fair share of the consumer's dollar. He said that the present government had failed to fulfill its pre-election promise to look into and correct \the injustice which deprive the| \farmer of profits. "Marketing boards across} Canada," he said, "are work-| ing in the impossible situation| presented by these monopolies."| He told members how Farm- er's Unions could cut costs by| mroducing their own tractors, seeds and fertilizers, which can |be distributed through their own} outlets. 'We're going to need all. the jorganization we can muster in| \the next few years if the farm-| er is going to survive," he said. Ald. Cliff Pilkey, President of the Oshawa and District Labor \Council, called for a closer tie! |between organized labor and the! Farmer's Union. He invited the union to participate in the local labor council, and described the} |goals of the industrial and agri-) jcultural unions as identical. He) jpromised that the trade union} {movement would give the farm- ers every support possible.

This*Seems to be the one and- ja-quarter-million-dollar question for eampeting municipalities.
