ADMISSION Durham Federaution 'Heurs Community College Speauker Lester Robinson of the Durham Çommunîty1 College situated in Oshawa to serve a greater part of the Ontario and Durham County area, was guest speaker at the Durham Federation November meeting helId in Bowmanville on Thursday evening. A d elegation from Ontario County Federation were present on invitation to hear the guest speaker. Mr. Robinson, introduc- ed by Bruce Taylor, O.F.A. mem- ber, is an Acronautical Engîneer with a vast experience in Tech- nical works who originated in England and came, from Ottawa whcre he had served as instructor in similar courses for several years. He explained the functîon of Community- Colleges as advanced education above the Grade XII level for those who for various reasons would not go to Univers- ity. As yet, no agricultural cours- es are included in the curriculum. Mr, Robinson deftly fieldcd the questions posed him and was thanked by President Dalton Dor- rcll for providing much factuai information. From the correspondence a no- tice of possible change of rates to affect those landowners where the Ontario Hydro will be plac- ing new towers, poles etc. Durham County Federation has for many years'had a property committee that works with its provincial counterpart to assist local land-oweners who r»ay be adversely affected by expropria- tion. The new proposais were turncd over to ths commitnee chaired by Eric Fallis for their perusal and comments. The Ontario Federation of Ag- riculture, at the request of, its members' has made overtures to the Ontario Farmers Union at provincial level, to work together to create one farm organization to represent ail farmers in Ontar- io with one strong- single voice. It was with regret that we read the correspondence from the Pro- vincial Secretary of Farmers Un- ion declining' any action in this direction. In the past, goverament bod- ies have frequently cited the lack unanimity of the farm voices as their excuse for not implernent- ing various requests calculated to improve the farmers lot. With the Màrch on Ottawa and other occasions, it has proved that the rank and file of bath organizations can and are desirous of working in harmony for a common good. When the Executive of any or- ganization f ails to heed the de- sires of its members, those mem.- bers' have an obligation to re- place them with representativez that will., Elected representatives have an obligatio n to heed the. desires of those who support them, notto 'dictate a policy te perpetuate themselves in office to the detriment of those engag- cd in agriculture. Mr. Bruce Taylor was selected to attend the Pollution Confer- ence - a problem of deep con- cern to, almost everyone, It was decided to again pro- vide a trophy and prizes for the Jr. Farmer Car Rally, a contest that lays emphasis on safe driv- ing habits. Delegates were named to At- tend the 3-day O.FA. Convention in Toronto. Discussiontook place on providing a scholarship to as- sist a Junior Farmer ini the County desirous of taking ad- vanced- education' in agriculture. Final arrangements were made for the Durhamn Federation An- nual Banquet to be held on Tues- day, November 21st, in Bethany. Wc are fortunate to have as guest speaker, Mr. Charles Monroe, President of the Ontario Federa- tion of Agriculture. Tickets are available from any Federation Di1- rector.
