session either amend the Natural Products Control Act or bring down new legislation designed to give the producers more control over the marketing of potatoes.

At a meetin with tire cabinet in the corporal. on committee room at tire Parliament Building. from which members of the press were excluded, representatives of the producers laid their case before the ministers. The growers contend that the present marketing board set up under the Natural Products Control Act is of no benefit to the producers and won't work out be- cause the members of the board to carry out the intentions of the Act would be called upon to reg ulate the business practices of each other.

One suggestion was advanced on the floor of the Legislature at this session by E. W. Melville (Con. Carleton) that representatives of the producers be added to the board which at present is compos- ed entirely of shippers. Prior to their meeting with Government it is understood that the growers had e. private meeting with the ship- pers, aimed at approaching the cabinet with a united front. No an-
