Mr. Dewar further expressed the view that the provisions of the interim policy do not make enough allowance for the tram-

He stated “the total ef- fect of the interim policy will be that the resulting higher feed costs will place Maritime Live- stock and poultry feeders at a distinct 'disadvalitage aa‘ com- pared with other parts of Can- ada. In view of the fact that average net farm incomes in the M ' trues have n percent since 1949 this is a very as one matter."
