In chier words, much bas been donc te improve tie lot of the farmer compared witb wbat was donc under tic fer- mer Liberal regime but furtier stcps are needed and some wilh now be taken, I should hike ah Ibis lime ta quote the intention eft he gev- crniment with respect ho agri- culture as expressed in the words of the speech trom thie tirene: "Additional legisiatian in tic field cf agriculture wli be re- commended. A measure wili be laid before yen ho instihute a system of crep insurance lu ce- operation with such provinces as se desire. You will aise be invîtead te make a comprehen- sive review and revisian ot thie legisiation eoncerning iarm credit, in order tiat credît may be more effective in assisting in tic developmien, and ina 'i- tenance of ari e-Îfficient and prosperous agriculture." Surely thus is a real advance in wha t I consider ho be tic very long rond liat must bel travelcd before our farm-ers are really lu receipt oi their fair sLi.-re efthie national ineome, a goal wbicb ah heast we on Ibis ide et tic bouse hope will be atained.

One important reference lu thie hbrone speech was liat to tic commonwealth trade sudi econemie eontcrenoe hcid lu Moutreal hast September. I no- ted withi nhereat tie rcmarks ai tic Leader of lie Opposition on Ibis subjech and aise wbah be said about a net altogetier unrchated mather, tial ai Can- adian-*Uuited States relations. Tic speech from thie tirone contains tic faliowing words: "In response te suggestions Freel w RAE put forward by my gavern- ment, a camrnanweaith brade and econorpic canference was hehd in Montreal hast Septem- ber. This meeting, one cfthie most important ini the history ai the commonwealth, 'was at- tended by ministers represent- ing the self-governing nations af the commonwealth and the countries now looking fcrward, ta obtaining full sovereignty.1 A large measure of agreement was reached on trade and econ- omnic matters. This bas led to far-reaching decisions on the part cf the United Kingdomn and other countries ta restore convertibility af their curren- cies and ta remove restrictions on imports." Mr. Speaker, this was not just another conference of the kind held frequently since the l1ast war under the Liberai regjmc. This conference was probably the most carefully prepared one of its kind ever held, in the opinion of experts who have attended many of them. In the scope of its represçntation aTone there was a breadth which had flot b2en equalled, because there were cielegates flot only from the United Kîngdom, Canada, Australia, New Zea- land and South Africa but also from India, Pakistan, Ceylon, Ghana, the Federation of Ma- laya and Nyasaland. In addi- tion, a number of colonial ter- ritor'es were represented to the United Kingdomn in an ad- visory capacity; Nigeria, the West Indies, Kenya, Tangany- ika, Uganda, Sierra Leone and Hong Kong. Incidentally, this was the first conference at which new members of the commonwealth in As:a and Africa outnumbered the older members. The conference deait with an unusually wide range of topics as it conoerned itself with more than commonwealtih inter-relations. Its themes in- cluded the role of an expanding world and, with this, there was a realization of the crucial role which the commonwealth is playing in fostering world econ- amie prosperîty and in promot-. ing the prçgress of its less de- veloped member countries, In spite of the words of the Leader of the Opposition (Mr. Pearson), 1 submit that this was a conference unique in its assembly. There were other words used in the course of critical comment whieh I thînk have been overdone, and I re- fer to the somewhat quibbling attitude toward the words "led"' and "foreshadowed". The fact remnains that after- long periods of discussion and consideration prior to this conference, cur- i rencies have been made con- vertible, and 1 suggest that a major contributîng factor toj this event and to other matters of great importance wvas (Lte large measure of agreement which was reached at Montreal I on the widest possible range of top ics. This cenference, however, did not limit its interest ta cçmmonwealth co-operation but sought the participation of other countries. In section II of the report of the Montreal confer- ence 'iealingf with cornmodîty prqblems and agriculture, par- agflaph 45 of the whole, it is- stated, and I quote: "'We recognize that, for the most part, effective action wîi require- the participation of thc important producing and con- DAYS DAIRY NA 3.5444 suming eountrles throughout the world." Then I wish to underline lhe iollowing, which, Is sti].1 part ai tic quotatian:. «It is aur hope Ihat countries outside tic commonwealth wili accept aur objectives and be prepared te join with us lu our work." We know that bwo of the great powers outside the Com- monwealth are tic Soviet un- fion and the United States. Wa can be done with respect to trade relations with the Soviet union is a mystery, but il h cec- tainly ne secret.- that the co-operation of the United States la esseiatial te the succesa of mnany ot the commonwealth endeavours. I wouhd point out that aiter the commoiiwcalti confercnce an event happened in the second cominittee of tic United Nations during the thir- teenth generai assembiy wbich is an exampie ai improved re- lations net only with the crn-, rnonwealth but with the United States, because at this point lie Canadian delegation was able te obtain the full support ai lie delegation ai the United States for the acceptance et language in a resolution on international commodity trade which went farther than the United States has ever been prepared te go before. T'his, I bubmit, lsaa real result, and it is only ane example ai the benefits whiciî have flowed from he Montreal conference. 1 do net understand, in the ligit of this and oth-er exam- pies, how the Leader of thc Op- position can justify the position he teck in mînimizing the value of this hast conference ou trade and economnie matters in Mou- treal. On tic basis af iact tbe Mon- treal conterence was unique, and I use the termn "unique" iu the sense ai the definition ln Murray's Englisi dictionary jwhere the word is detined as meaning net only alone of ils kind, but more particularly in this case as meaning "standing alone in comparison wlth others", This conter2nce wvas Iunique in a number cf ways, of wl icih I shahl cite thrce. First of ail lie representa- tien frcm tieCcommonwealth in- eiuded ahi tie eider inenbers plus many new cnes irom Asia and Atrica with representation to, and therefore througb,the United Kingdom, af Nigeria, tie W est Indi-es, Kenya, Tangany- ika, Uganda, Sierra Leone and tiat the new members outnum- bered the old. It was aIse unique In tiat the agenda was not himited. 1h in- cludcd tic widest possible range ai subjects in keeping witi an expanding commanï- Iwealhin a world with a grow- ing hiat af new states. Furtier- more il was unique in regard te the wide area ai general agreement dififcuht which was reacied iu these limes. As ha the results of this Con- ference, I believe they are aise unique. This opinion la based' ou occurrences immediahely atter tie conference, laat au- tumn, at lie general asaembly ai the Uuited Nations, which. if they Aile brue indieato.-s, asI believe tiey are, foretefl a new spirit and a new desire te deal withthe problema of interna- tional brade in a way more beneficial than Iu the past te the world cammunity as a whoie. Again I make speciic reference le the fact that lie United States delegation te tie United Nations general assem- bhy committee ou ecanemie and tinanciai maltera accepîed and supperted lie language ai a re- solution ou international cein- modity trade wbîch was sub- sequentiy adopted, the word- ing ai wbici was baken direct- i lY irom tieCcommonwealth re- part. This is the farhhest tie United States bas ever- been preparcd te go lu suci matters. 1 maint4in liat tbe resuits of lie Monitreai conierence, are aiready unique, but ioure continuity ai bila kindmuIh maiutained.
