______ ~'. PAGE EIGHT THE CANADIAN STATESMAN, BOWMANVELLE, ONTARIO THURSDAY, APRIL 27th, 1944 Federation of Agriculture Clarifies Recent Milk Control Legislation The Ontario Government re- cently brought down a new Bill to authorize collection of Associa- tion fees by deductions fromn pro- ducers' milk checks, and since there appears to be a degree of mismnformation in the matter. The Ontario Federation of Agriculture has issued a bulletin clarifying the main points and clearing up some misconceptions concerning gifts to officiais. The points deait with are as follows: The Bill is an amendment to the present miik control act of the province, and merely gives legal status to collection of fees which has been in operation on a voluntary basis for ten years. The principle of the Bill is the same as similar legislation on other tarm products passed seven years ago and along the lines enabling mill rate deductions for membership in the Ontario Federation of Ag- riCulture. No producer association is com- pelied to adopt the system ot col- lection under the Bill. It takes effect only in cases where local associations desire to make use of its provisions. They must petition the government to make it ef- fective in the area concerned and thus it is a voluntary procedure based on majority vote of pro- ducers. The Liberal Government, in 1937, enacted the present Farm Products Marketing Act, authoriz- ing a Board to make collection of license or organîzation tees for producer associations. The new Bull authorizes the association it- self to be the collecting agency, and where accepted, the mîlk dis- tributors are compelled to deduct fees from patrons' checks. The money collected and its ap- plication rests entirely in the hands ot the local milk produc- er's association unless it has pre- viously authorized the provincial association to do the collecting.

Then it gets only the share provided by the constitution, one hait cent per cwt. on whole milk. The Bill provides that tees must be used in ail cases for organization and edu- cational purposes and expenses. The Bill does not set a precedent for, since 1937, the following pro- ducers have collected tees of like kind: Ontario Cheese Producers, Ontario Peach Growers, asparagus growers, the pear, plumn and cherry growers, the seed corn growers, tomato growers, sugar beet growers, strawberry and raspberry growers. They ahi were s0 authorized under the Act of 1927. The new plan will be ad- ministered by the Ontario Milk Control Board and no alteration in fees can be made without approv- ah of the Minister of Agriculture. The only salaried officials of the Ontario Whole Milk Pro- ducer's League are a secretary and stenographer. Aside from these and ordinary office expenses the money is entireiy used for or- ganization and educational work, expenses of annual meetings and directors' meetings, etc. There has been criticism of presents made to officials. The gift of a $1,000 car to a retiring secretary. Mr. Clarke, was occasioned thîough the tact that for years hie used his Gwn car and accepted a very small annual remuneration so his oId car was taken over and replaced by a new one. In the matter of some chairs presented f0 Dr. J. B. Reynolds, this gift was paid entirely out of the personal, pocketbooks of the directors. Hampton Visitors: Mrs. Hudson Heron and Mrs. Chas.

"You have been aided in your task by an army of volunteer workers whose efforts in the na- tional service have resulted in a substantial reduction in the cost of distribution. "Distributing Ration Books is a colorless, sometimes thankless task. We, of the Board, do thank you. We are proud of your ac- complishment. Congratulati o n s on a job well done."
