Letter to theEditor ]Bowmanvilie, Ont, March 25, 1963 The ýEditor, The Orono Weekly Times, Orono, Dear Sir:- May I request a littie of your space to repiy to a letter by .nr. Roger Kirkpatrick in last week's paper. As a farmer, I arn perfectly wefl aware that agriculture has prob- lems which must be molved. Dur- .ng this 'campaign 1 have stressed this point everywhere 1 have gone The Eastern Feed Grain and As- sistance Act would have gone far towards helping Eastern agricul- ture. Notice of Motion of ýhjs i3ill was served before the iast Parlia- nment was dissolved. At meetings I have quoted fig- ures to show that Ontario farmers have received.more consideration under a Conservative governmett than they did in Liberal days _,en f arming Suffered seriously. Net income has also risen. 1i be- lieve that if Agriculture Minister Alvin Hamilton is allowed zo con- tinue his present policies after April 8, Durham farmers will ben- efit. If the proposed Liberal farmn policy is introduced, Eastern fa- mers will suffer. With regard to, tobacco. at the Liberal nomination meeting, it was stated that Durham tobacco rev- enue will drop by 40 per cent in 1[963 as a resuit of acreage cuts. I d'efy anyone to say this is týrue, since the cut is 15 per cent more than in 1962, not 40 per cent more. Finaily, at the Clarke Township Progressive Conservative Associ- ation annual meeting! iast f ah, I said I was willing at any tume to debate agricultural matters with 1 taken up. my Liberai opponent.
