Expeet Early End To Grain Subsidies

Protest.

\ _rr—'

OTTAWA. July 23-(0?) — The Government is expected to dis. continue payment of subsidies on Western-grown coarse grains fed to Eastern livestock about the end of this month and informed quar- tcra said tonight this might be followed by a hike of meat price ceilings to substitute for the aid these payments now give the livestock men. .

The Government ls known tn be considering the question of the feed subsidies it. pays Eastern farmers when they feed Western feed grains to their livestock. The subsidies are directly linked to the stabilization program and officials emphasize they are designed to aid both Eastern and Western fann- ers since they guarantee s good price to the Western feed grain producer while holding Eastern feed prices down to a minimum. The payments amount to about 25 cents s. bushel each on barley and wheat and 10 cents on oats.

MAKES PROTEST

PRHDERICTON, July 22-(0?) -New Brunswick farmers would be hard hit if Federal subsidies on Western coarse grain were re- lnoved‘July 31 as reported todeg TF0!" Ottawa. A. C. Taylor, pro- vincial Minister of Agriculture. said. Mr. Taylor sent an appeal to the Federal Government today re- questing that previous New Brunswick recommendations for continuation of the subsidies un- til. theend r-f i948 be. carried into eflect. I-Ie emphasized the "vital need” for c ’ ’ subsidies in view of "heavy production coats facing New Brunswick farmers."

Dropping of the subsidies would mean an ndlldltional average cost of about $8 u ton to farmers who already are find n: overhead a serious obstacle to production. Mr. Tsvior sold.

There was alreadv a trend to- wards recession in production and the natural result of removal of the, subsidies l"'~u"l be a further decrease. he added.

Fire, wllldh was discovered about 1.30 yesterday morning destroyed the Buchanan Westman Photogra- phic Studio at OLeary and three occupants of the residential section were forced to flee from the build- ing in their night clothing. Mr. Buchanan, an ex-service man who la one of the partners of the two- year-old business, said yesterday that the value of the bukding and equipment would be bout $7,800.00.

The barking of the dog awaken-
