A morning session between Prime Minister Wilson and his ministers stretched into the aft- ernoon amid speculation that Wilson might accept a compro- mise formula for dealing with Rhodesia put forward by Can- ada's Prime Minister Pearson. At the same time, other dele- gations at the. conference of Commonwealth heads of gov- ernment used a weekend ad- journment to seek a consensus on a middle way. The Africans demand United Nations manda- tory sanctions while the British line is that a UN-ordered eco- nomic embargo could cause wider repercussions, stich as the withdrawal of South Africa from UN membership. Pearson has proposed com- promise answers to demands supported by all but a few of the 22 Commonwealth delega- tions for effective mandatory sanctions and a clear British rule before legal independence is granted to Rhodesia.

The price today is around $5.50. "I can remember eggs when they sold for 12 to 15 cents a dozen and when butter was 16 cents a pound. I see eggs in the store today. at 83 cents and butter at 66 cents." Despite his age and the high cost of living, Mr. Alexander still eats three meals a day and often a snack before re- tiring.

Frank Howard (NDP-- Skeena) said the government is bankrupt of any program to deal with the problem and threatened to withhold the re- quired unanimous consent to move the adjournment motion unless the government admitted this. He withdrew his threat after George Mcliraith, the govern- ment House leader, said the Commons chamber is needed next week for a conference of the International Labor Organ- ization. and, later, a Common- wealth parliamentary confer- ence, Before he sat down, Mr. How- ard said he is sure ILO dele- gates would not be inconveni- enced if they were asked to sit in the Senate chamber. Young Liberals Score Cabinet servers, the OAS has yet to demonstrate that membership has yielded substantial trade benefits. Again, would OAS member- Ship for Canada create friction in relations with the U.S. on such delicate developments as the rise of Fidel Castro in Cuba or the controversial American intervention in the Dominican Republic? The ready response is two fold: Canadian opinion would have more weight about such events inside the OAS than out- side; Mexico's refusal to follow U.S. desires by breaking off re- lations with Cuba, or sanction- ing the Dominican intervention, | did not worsen American-Mexi« can relations. However, as one Latin Amer- ican source put it: "The ball HALIFAX (CP)--Despite re- fusal by Health Minister Mac- Eachen today to comment on the postponement of the federal medical care plan, delegates to the Nova Seotia conference of Liberal youth passed two reso- lutions criticizing the federal)? government for the move.

Walter Miller told an OFU Ox- ford area gathering that farm- ers have the power to paralyze the province if they have to. He said it appears the farm- ers will have to "take a book from the people in the railroad and tie everything up tight." Mr. Miller was among OFU officials who met earlier Friday with the federal agriculture minister, J. J. Greene, over in- creased milk prices. Mr, Greene announced at the meeting the authorization of the agricultural stabilization board to increase the selling price of butter two cents a pound to en- able the processor to increase producers' prices by eight per hundred weight Miller said there was nouncement other than for in- dustrial shippers who have their milk made into butter. The union had demanded a 25-cent increase in the federal base price to $3.50 giving the producers a return of $4.25. "The railwaymen showed us how to deal with the govern- ment . . . tie the country up and inject it with some sense of urgency," Mr. Miller said. The increase, to be passed on to the consumer through a two- cent raise in the minimum sell- ing price of butter, brings to ist in O: Snr sea * a ay ks Farmers Union Executive Urges Farmers Strike Action urged farmers to withhold all ¥ J.

Mr. Greene also promised a further 9.5-per-cent increase in the base price this current dairy year provided the Quebec and Ontario governments promise the raise will be fully passed on to farmers, At. present, only Ontario, through its milk marketing board, could guarantee: this. A second condition for the 9.5- cent increase was equalization of the present difference in milk subsidies between Ontario and Quebec. Farmers in Quebec re- ceive an additional provincial subsidy of 17.5 cents a hundred+ weight in the summer and 35 cents in the winter. No such provincial subsi dies Claimed the Quebec oll, is su disturb the free flow of mille between the two ' 'Aoriculture Minister Boosts Milk Subsidy Equalization Mr. Greene said removal of the propincial differences was in the interest of a sound na- tional policy. Equalization could be achieved by either Quebec removing its subsidy or by On- tario launching a_ provincial subsidy on the Quebec level. He made his announcement at the end of an open meeting at- tended by several provincial agriculture ministers, delega- tions of farmers and their or- ganizations and representatives bs dairy processors' organiza- ions. STEWART SEEKS MORE Ontario Agriculture Minister Stewart, who in July told angry dairy farmers massed at Queen's Park their problems were a federal responsibility, reiterated his earlier view that Ottawa 'should up the base price with 25 cents to $3.50. "Never before has the Cana- dian consumer better beer able to pay for the increase," said Mr. Stewart, who spoke before Mr, Greene's announcement. He said farm costs again would increase dramatically in view of recent 30-per-cent. wage settlements for dock and sea- way workers, new wheat sales to Russia resulting in higher feed prices, and the recent pro- vincial rail strike settlement, PRETORIA (Reuters) segregated according to their funeral today.
