Next Monday, millions of arkers in Canada have a day off ta celebrate, relax and contemplate. In the past, this has been an- occasion for arganized labor to review its gains during the Yean; for unorganized worlçers ta ponder haw they can do better; for industrialists, business- mnen, professional and amnatur econamists ta wrondeÉ where it xiii end; an-d for farm- ers ta depiore their unfavonable position -1-while harvesting their crops instead of hoiidayîng. in this ares, as we approach Libor Day, General Motors of Oshawa, a large employer of labor from Bowmanville and Durhamn Countv, once again is experiene- ing contract difficuities with the United 'Auto- Workers' Union rcpresenting its ~empioyees. As this is being written, -negotiations have braken off and xve, along - with every other interested persan, hope they xil have been resurncd before this appears in print. Wc don't believe any one wants a castly strike. We have no intention ofparticipating -in1 this particular dispute.

Organ-ized labor evidently is quite capable of loaking aftei, its own affairs, but there is one group of hard-workers of particular interest ta us in this area who rnust be puzzling what their next move should be in this race-for împraved finan- cial standing. We refer to farmers, a graup 50 fre quently rnisunderstood -by every other body of citizens in the country. While 'almost everyone else's econornic position has been bettcred, they continue to face uncertainty, insecurity and lowered standards of living xith no immediate prospect of improveeret. This condition applies not only ta Canada but United States as well. Sooner or later, if the trend toward higher, wages 'and profits continues for most groups, whîle net incarne draps steadily for aur basic food producers, farmers will be forced ta follow the pattern of organizcd labor in getting together ta present a solid, aggressive, unyielding 'front to those who m ust buy their products te exist.

This is cxpected ta assist scholaî-s in higher mathematics. For variety, they can also use such indefinabies as "zileh. zumsi or gerf ".
