Ma ny Aftfend RaIIy 0f'Durham Farmers Discuss Markefing Indicative of the growing realizalion by farmers, of Dur- hamn County, for the need of -planned marketing.,xvas the large, spirited, turn-out for a Farmers' rally held last Mon- *day evening at the Orono 1.0. O.F. Hall, sponsored by the Kir- *by Farm Forum, as bost. * Guest speaker and pivot for much informative discussion, was John MV. James, M.P. AI- though Lloyd Jasper, President of the Ontario Federation of *Agriculture, was originally sla- ted as a guest speaker, also, a lasI minute substitution was ably carried out by Clarence Milliken, a past-president of the Federalion. Tribute To Ed Sunimers A tribute, 'neyer ta be equal- led', in the words of John M. James, M.P., brought a re- sounding applause for Dur- ham's Man of the Years, Ed Summers. Mr. James, in outlining the government policy on farm marketing problems, brought fa mind the fact, that agricul- tural production is considerab~y higher than pre-war years1. This, paradoxically, xvas caus- ing much of the problem . . . a problem of over production. He hoped Ihat this situation would begin to level off Ihis year. Il was necessary, he stated, for agriculture to return ta a nor- mal level compatible with other parts of economy. "However", he continued. "there is one item that no one likes ta discuss. Who would have thought that eleven years after the close of the war our defence costs wouldf continue to rîse and rise? True, there are many features desir- able by ahl of us. But, even peace has ils price .Freedom takes dollars in peace. .. lives irn war", he concluded. Packers Are Buying Truckers Mr. Clarence Milliken, fol- lawing with his address, drew a brief sketch of the general economnic situation in Ontario relating la the Farmer. Quoling from the words of an eminent economist of Canada, Mr. Mil- likeni formed 'the conclusion "that theirs was a passive role, whereas the Farmer needed im- mediate action, not formula." "Fuirthermore', he stated, '"ve (the farmers) are just scratch- ing the surface in production. Find the market", he continu- ed, "and you find the solution to aur problems". He recommended that Feder- alions of Agriculture present briefs to their local M.P's and ta representatives of all parties, provincial as well as federal. He went on ta demand that assurance be obtained from the provincial government ta enact legislature, if necessary, shoulri the Supreme Court of Canada rule against the present Mar- keting Board. "There are 18 schemes on 33 crops dependent on this legis- lature", he stated. "Packers are not buying hogs today", iie contintied, hy'e buying truckers". "On aur export market w'?- have lost ail but the wheat. We must go after the foreign mar- kets. In addition, the consumer shauld be prepared ta pay a reasonable price for his food', he cancluded. Parity System No Good Following the close of his address an open discussion un- der the direction of Clarence Allen, Newcastle, president of the Durham County Federation of Agriculture, sparked a live- ly session. A parity sYstemn simnilar tr' thatl i effect ini the U.S.A. for the past \-cars was questioned as a possible solution in C3n- ada. However, as pointed OLC by John James, experience in the States on this measure has proven the parîty bill as in2f- fectual. Other points braught during the discussion period was the number one idea of 'self-hehp marketing', a realistie approarh ta the farmer's problems. One voice suggested that labour g1a study of the operations of trade unions. J RalIy A Success The rally was, in itself, a tri- bute to the progressive think- ing of the farmers and of their insistence for, a working solu- lion. Not only was the hall jammed to capacily, but one lady brought along her copy of Hansard of which she proved well read. The speakers were introduc- ed by Clarence Allen, master of ceremonies, who also wel- comed the Jack and Jili Trio, Mrs. Gwenn Black, Mrs. Dor- othy Van Driel and Mrs. Lyi'n Oke who were accompanied, on the piano, by Mrs. Dorolhy James. At the close of the meeting, a luncheon was served Ly the ladies present, duringr which informal discussions were continued. F.O.A.
