Northumberland - Durham~ "We in the Progressive, Conserv- Sepitie Tank service GENERAL PUMPING U HROUi SERVIE LORNE HARDY Leskard, Ontario phMee 982-5728 17 eative Pirty feel th.at there are two major problcms confronting our nation at thepresent timie -, the nlsinig. cost of living and the high rate, of unemploYnient. 1L .a 'sure virtually every Canadian would agree that these are the two greatest causes for Concern in thli country today, These were the principal issues on which Mr. Stanfield fouglit the October 3th election, and we in the Progressiàve Conservat- Ive- Party ýbelieve that they are the Issues that caused the great- est discontent among the people of Canada toward the Trudeau government. And what lias that governnwnt bcen, tkbngabout The Nation's Business nhecmmttean do several1 things. Firstly. it can mal<e the publie aware of the very complex nature of the food industry in Canada. Second, 1k can make "the - government unearth and produce ail the surveys and studies and other inormation on food prod- ucti on aid prices which its offic- ls 'and task for-ces hamme been accumulating in'their files over the rast d,ecade. RecentlY, for in- stance, several Millions of the taxPaVerc dollars Nwere spent on the ,Comlmission whieh 1stu,,died Prices and incomes. Surëly that group's work couid at least pro- vide US with some good leads. Third, the Conuittet can ifn- vestigate any monoPolistic tend- enoies that May exist within our food industry. But finally, cnd niost imPýort- antly, the Corimittee' has to corne up with proposais or sug- gest possible solutions and remf- edies to' bring the food,price spiral under control. There lis no se%'se, in using this commlittee for a witeh-hunt. That is not Our intention nor, 1 hope, wll it be. the aim of the Liberal and, NDI' members. In the recent past there have been simlar studies by ecither Parlian¶îentary commnit- tees or Royal Commissions. These have deait at great length on studyin 1g and evaluating the varn- ous segments of the food industrY This trne, with this conMMittee, especiailY when the present goV- ernmnt is 8O absolutely bereft of Ororio, Ontario ORONO PEE WEE FLYFMS HIOLDING SKAMTEATON The Orono Pee Wee Flyers are holding a skateathon Saturday, night in an effort to-raise money to purchase, team idrekr for their-tnip to Quebec later this month,.
