The thoughtful member for Red Deer (Mr. Speakman) showed by his smile that he appreciated the hu- mour oi’ the situation. The member for Acadia (Mr. Gardiner), with his Scotch humour, also smiled and looked around to see whether -some of the hon. members on the other side did not, with him, relish the humour that was taken so seriously. And the hon. member for Wetaski- win (Mr. Irvine) almost bubbled over before the statement was well out of the mouth of the former Minister of Agriculture. But enough of that. No one, Mr. Speaker, is freer to admit his_limitatlcn.s than I am. I have missed no opportunity of asking for advice and here let me say that some of the best advice I have received to- wards the formation of agricultural policy has come from hon. gentle- man opposite in the far corner of the chamber. .

before the old country market in the most convincing way. In this ship- ment were groups of different types, |and the man selected to put the | cattle on thel English market was Mr. Shea Gilchrist. He made the nec- essary arrangements and did every- thing within his power to create in- terest in the old land in this and any other’ shlpmenu that might be made. I saw the cattle before they left Montreal, and I felt that the best advertisement which we could have in the old country for Canadian lcattle was this representative ship- ment. 1 thought that we could have no better advertisement than to make sure that some of the most suitable cattle would go into the hands of the feeders. To encourage this, and to make certain that these cattle would not be slaughtered, it was agreed` that we should subsidize them to pay

Although I made that proposal on

Saturday-it was not a binding promise but merely a suggestion- the news immediately got to the Old Country. It appeared in the news- papers there that the Canadian gov- ernment was subsidizing cattle and I had to withdraw the tentative prom-

freight up to five dollars a head. .

THE BUTTER PROBLEM l

The nfxt. pro-blem llnti to do with! butter. It has been sam that mol raising ofthe duty on butter en-i couraged a lot of D@0P1€ *D S0 “"w` the dairy industry with the result that the prices on butter were broken. That is not my interpretation of the cause. I believe that the price of wheat and the price of coarse SY-"‘-|11 was such as to encourage people to enter this industry; they were ready to go into anything that which would make them tive or ten cents with which to carry them through the win ter. In order to save this industry we put on an eight-cert duty against New Zealand buiter. However, the Australian treaty, made by the prev- ious government, was still in force and that permitted a one-cent duty

We were faced with a flood of .lus- 'rulian butter, nnd my colleagues and I realized that the only was io mm this emcrgcnry was io make a vor- lml agrcomrnt with thc l!”l\- l’€i1'11"l` Mcloircy of Australia tn tht' i2ii¢l‘i that Australia Wrillld D0' Telfllse in Canada any butter und' 32 tonic por pound except with our consent.

There was a possibility at one time

that the price would hc driven down hy New Zealand because they \wrc shipping ln some butter to sell at it-ss than 32 cents. I immediately got in touch with i.he commissioner for New Zealand and was able to ar- range with him thnt their butter would not be released nt. u price less than 32 cents per pound to the det- riment of our dalrying indusry.
