8 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Change name to Wednesday, June 18, 1975 "he Durham Lung Association, Jeanne Dymond new president Che Durham Region Tuberculosis and Respir- a'ory Disease Association met for the last time last week. Not to worry for the thous- ands of people who have taken advantage of the pro- grams and efforts of the organization, however. The Durham Lung Association starts off where the TB Association left off. The change in name made at the annual meeting is in keeping with the name change enacted by the parent Ontario Lung Association recently. The association is a totally volunteer organiz- ation which raises funds to provide research and educat- ion aimed at preventing and curing lung diseases. The organization also holds such programs as anti-smoking clinics and even medical seminars for medical staff. As well as the name change, last week's annual meeting has Mrs. Jean Dymond taking over from Mrs. A. Jewell as president of the Association. Ontario riding M.P.P. Matthew B. Dymond is the new presi- dent's husband. Both are long-time volunteers with the association. Among the tributes paid to the organization's volunteers was by Scugog township Mayor Lawrence Malcolm. "It is organizations like this," he said, "that are the lifeblood of the country. Being local politicians, we can only provide the climate, to hold the reins. We're not always sure we are doing it right, but we try." Durham Region Chairman Walter Beath told the group that perhaps the most valu- able" things done todhy are, done from the heart, things that cannot be bought or forced. Guest speaker at the annual meeting was surgeon, Dr. Claude H. Vipond, who spoke on his two-year stay in Africa. Using slides, the doctor showed his work in developing Africian nations, in some cases treating more ailments of a certaintype ina day, than a North American doctor might see in his life- time. Dr. Vipond presented another view of colonialism and African development, and said it offered much good, along with the bad. While in Africa, he lived under the same conditions as an African doctor, and he worked with many Africans, as well as medical staff from other countries. He speaks highly of the dedication of these people, and"will admit "quite frank- ly' that on returning to Canada and after sitting in hospital staff lounges listen- ing to doctors and staff com- plain about taxes, working conditions and difficulties, he thinks of the dedication of many of the people he met overseas. Cattlemen (continued more problem if there is further increases in foreign and domestic oil prices, he said, or if the U.S. economy doesn't pick up. One of Australia's periodic droughts would force that country's producers to put their cattle on the market, at a very low price. Domestic policy, too, has a direct bearing on{he future of the cattle business.' 'Iwill depend on government action," he said, 'to fight inflation or recession." If the government decides to fight inflation, there will be more unemployment and less money to spend on beef, according to Mr. Mills. "But if the government decides to fight recession and pump more mney into the economy, we've learned from past experience that it will go into beef." The overall world trade situation will remain the same in the next year, slug- gish movement on the market, with low prices. In fact, prices will dip even lower this fall, he said. He warned producers not to become too excited about forcasts of ""$2.00corn" in the fall in the United States. If this would come about, he said, the 'American govern- ment would probably move back into some kind of com- WHITBY DENTURE CLINIC 214 DUNDAS ST. E., WHITBY 668-7797 'Open evenings and Saturdays.

Mr. Mills said, however, that the beef business will continue to be good, overall, for at least five years. He sees.a steady overall growth in demand until 1985, and perhaps 1990. "At least in North America," he said. He also said world demand would continue increasing once the present slump is over, but not at therate it was increasing in the past. REMEDIES To eleviate some of the problems that faces the Canadian producer, he called for a better long-term trade agreement with the U.S. that would favour the Canadian producer a bit more. Trans- port problems, particularly for the Western producers, would also have to be ironed out. He called for an energetic public relations effort by the industry, due to what he called '"'a public highly sus- ceptible to misinformation". Although marketing systems are excellent (Moving the cattle to the consumer) the pricing system is the weakness. "Prices are jumping around like a yoyo," he said. He said producers today are asking if the present system, where the individual producer decides when, where, to who, and how much he should sell, is the best. He sees two alternatives. The "Public Utilities', similar to the dairy industry where price is determined by the public purse and legis- lation, or a Marketing Board system, where farmers would gain control of their" commodity's marketing, but at the same time, keep government involvement at a minimum. He warned, however, that the idea that the "small guy" benefits from a marketing board is wrong. Instead, he said, it is the opposite. Whichever route cattlemen take, he said, will have to be 'all the way'. "You cannot put hands in the public purse and keep the government out." He likened the cattlemen's dilemma with political prob- rlems facing many countries, " both past and present. Rome, as well as modern England, and Now, Canada, are trying to get more out that they put in, by "Mortgaging the future". "I hope cattlemen don't do it, at least not without a fight."
