8---THE PORT PERRY STAR, THURSDAY, MAY 7th, 1060 Clipned Comments High price supports and strict farm controls are steadily waning in popu- larity among U.S. farmers. Such is the onl' conclusion to be drawn from a poll recently conducted by the Farm Journa' in that country, The finding of the poll deserve careful study in farm cireles here in Canada, According to The Farm Journal's poll, 65 per cent of all U.S. farmers would like -to see Washington's sup- port price system and related controls entirely dismantled. Of the remainder, 16 per cent of U.S. farmers feel that support prices should be used only as an emergency measure -- in case of disaster or of sudden loss of markets. " Some 8 per cent believe that there should be a period of gradual adjust- ment to the free market, Another 8 per cent feel that support prices should be confined to a government guarantee to pay the farmer the dif- ference between the market price and support levels. Only 14 per cent of all U.8. farmers favor the present system of high support prices and con- trols. Farmers in the the United States, it seems, are thoroughly disillusioned about the support price system and all that it implies in terms of regimenta- tion and restriction, The ma- jority, as the The Farm Journal poll showp, would gladly go back to the old days of freedom which existed before the planners and politicians in Washington decided that farmers were a privileged group, entitled to special treatment by the ratepayers. Leaders of farm organizations in Canada who still point to the U.S. farm policy as the acme of what is best for agriculture, would do/Well to ponder the reason for the wide spread disillusionment of U.S. farmers with rigid support prices and all that they imply. Watchman-Warder WAGE INCREASES OUTSTRIP PRODUTIVITY Excessive, Wage increases are to blame for the most recent period of inflation. That is the view of no less an authority than Dr. Raymond D. Saulnier, Cahadian-born chairman of President Eisénhower's Council of Ec- onomic Advisers. Co In a letter to Senator Kefauver, chairman of the U.S. Senate subcom- mittee on antitrust and monopoly, Dr. Saulnier rejects the argument of cer- tain politicians and union leaders who argue that "administered prices" are to blame for inflation. Says Dr. Saulnier: "There is no single cause (of inflation); sometimes prices rise be- cause of the pull of demand; and some- times because of a push from costs. In my judgment, the latter was a major factor in 1956-68, primarily be- cause of a tendency for increases in money wages during that: period to outstrip improvements in productivity. I believe we have tended of late to de- part from -the historical relation be- tween wage increases and productivity improvements. To the extent that we continue to do so, we will create cost pressures. that are bound to erupt in price increases. And if these cost in- creases cannot be passed on to the con- sumer in higher prices, they merely cause a squeeze on profits that will, over a period of time, seriously impair the nation's capacity for economic growth." --The Letter-Review BEST BUY -- SAVE dc Habitant 28 oz. tin French Canadian PEA SOUP 3 = 49c Heinz 48 oz. tin FANCY TGMATO BEST BUY -- SAVE 10c JUICE 2 =r 53¢ BEST BUY -- SAVE 4c QUAKER MUFFETS - - | BEST BUY -- SAVE 17¢ | .

Work on the project, which will take five years to complete, is expect- ed to start this year, said Harry 8. Tims, president of the company. The development will cover 680 acres and approximtely 8000 dwelling units will be built. A shopping centre will also be built as soon as there is sufficient population, The development is expected to ac- commodate about 10,000 people when completed. The project still must receive the approval of the Metropolitan Toronto Planning Board and the Ontaria_Mu- nicipal Board. The Frenchman's Bay area is about three miles southwest of Pickering Village and south of No. 401 Highway. G. 8S. Horgan, company solicitor, said the Crusader Developers were prepared to donate 10 acres of land in the parcel north of Frenchmen's Bay for use as a park area, In addi- tion the company will contribute $1000 every year for five years, to the twp. recreation commission.

Canadian workers were shocked by the actions of American union bosses when investigating committees dug up the ugly facts. Violence, misuse of funds, bribery -- just about every imaginable misdemeanour had been charged against more than one top union official. Could Canadian unions, with head offices in the USA, be sim- ilarfly dominated? Many a rank-and- file member began to take a sharp look at his union leadership. The result of such a sharp examina- tion of union leadership shows up in the daily news. There is a tremen- dous amount of dissatisfaction. To date, union bosses seem to be able to quell revolt and local insurgents quiet- ly "resign"--but rank-and-file mem- bers notice and are disturbed, - It is doubtful if union bosses will be able to continue to push members around so easily from now on. However, it takes tremendous cour- ages on the part of the worker to criti- cize his union boss--particularly in an industry where there is a closed-shop arrangement. = To lose his union card means to lose his livelihood. Most men think long and soberly before they take such a chance, Any mention of "the right to work" is highly unpopu. lar at union meetings--at least, with union officials, : Another thing disturbs the Canadian union member--sometimés a member only because he is forced to be one in the way attempts are being made by leaders to force him to support poli- faith, _ 4 . : Many workers are active in the Con- servative or the Liberal parties. They socialist or career-@ommunist boss in the union, to contribute part of their dues to: support political candidates they personally oppose, © ~ += Perhaps all this discontent will. come to nothing. Union officials have a pretty tight grip on the reins, They are patient, clever, and powerful. Nevertheless, when = rank-and-file members are finally aroused, they can act very quickly. Recent events at Sudbury proved that in a time of cri- sis, rank-and-file members have the courage to make changes, Perhaps the day is coming when dom, and union leaders will work as servants rather than as bosses of the members who pay dues. That will be a great day in the history of Unionism in Canada;--- Phoné YUkon 5-2172 Remember Mother on Mothers' D y Choose from a wide range of gift boxes,--70c. to $3.50 All Mothers Love Smiles'n Chuckles Chocolates Week-end Specials "Fruit Salad Layer Cake"-- (Decorated for Mothers' Day) GERROW'S BAKERY G.
