AMONG THE FARMERS
Federation nl Agricnltnro Nownle”
On Wednesday of this week Fed- eration of Agriculture representa-
tives for all sections and branches It
of Canadian farming met the Do- minion Cabinet to discuss the pro- blems of agriculture and to make rccommendatlons on policy which it was felt would improve the poa- ulon of the farmer generally. Of major importance was the recom- mendation that the floor price on butter should be immediately In- creased from 58 cents to 82 cents in pound. It was poinicd out that this action was needed to lncreaso the income of the dairy farmer and to enable the government to nhtain sufficient supplies to pro- n-ct the consumer from unwarrant- eri price advances next winter.
In view of the difficulties of the Western farmer it was recommen- ded that a system of deficiency payments be set up to compensate tor the low average returns of the past few years and to assist the inrmer over a period of difficul- tv caused by flooded world wheat markets.
The delegation requested the sovernment to give considc aim. to making unemployment insur- ance available to farm workers on the option of the farmer and his employees. Such action it was argued would assist farm workers to achieve greater stability of in-

The need of continued assistance on freight for Western grain for feed was again emphasized asrwao the need of a National Policy on Soil Conservation.
Generally the presentation dealt with matters of policy which have a direct bearing on the income of the farmer which has been deter- iorating steadily. for some years in relation to the rest of the econo- my.
FARM FORUM sUPP0ll.'I'
The need of increased funds for the operation of National Farm Radio Forum lead to the decision of the Canadian Federation of A- griculture to increase its grant to this educational program to SI.- 000.tll per year from the previous figure of 86,000.00. Additional a- mounts required are levied against the provinces which support the study of social and economic pro- blems on a national basis.
FOR PRICE SUPPORT
In order that the Canadian Ped- eration of Agriculture may keep more closely in touch with the ap- plication of price supports and oth- er asslstance programs for agrie uituro a new committee has been set up within the C.F.A.
”It was felt that at the present time the C.F.A. is handicapped in the application of its price support policies by the lack of a more formal and systematic procedure for bringing the price support re- quests and problems of commod- ity groups to the C.F.A. for con- sideration. and for the making of avyI'9IC1lIIu0lII to the Price sup port Board and to the government.
It was therefore decided that a Price Review and Price support Committee of the C.F.A. be m-
.. - . u . . .. .. tee. it should consist of three woo- tern and three eastern members and the President of the C.F.A. It should have the authority to moot when it feels necessary to review price support policy and arrive as decision. and make recommenda- tioaatothesupportlloardandtoe governmqt.
'I'hla authority would. however. be limited to making decisions which wen consistent with the pd- Ieies of the organisation as laid down by the board of Directors of
the C.F.A. The Committee phould take action on particular commo- dity problems in coopera;ion and consultation with representatives of the commodities concerned. it should be prepared to meet at the request of a commodity group to consider price support problems in that commodity and to prepare and make representatio .
When such a meeting is being arranged. adequate national repre- sentation of the commodity concer- ned should be assured. and for this purpose the National Office should inform member bodies like- ly to be concerned that commod- ity representatives are invited to attend.
The members of the Committee are to be appointed by the C. F. A. Board. Members should be permit- ted to name alternates to meet- ings when they cannot attend. but such alternates should be membn - of the Board. Any five memb . of the Committee or their alter- nates should constitute a quorum."

Conservation. development and
of the individual farmer - but at
ca, lack of knowledge has in the l past caused damage too heavy for the farmer to repair unaided: In. other cases the problems can bet solved only by community. region- ' st and even national action. .
The farmer. the businessman and g the wage earner each depend on1 the prosperity of the other. Na-1 iional economic policy. to succeed. : can neglect neither agriculture nor the maintenance of high indus- trial development and income.
Canadian agriculture must de- pend for its prosperity upon find- ing an export market for a con- siderable portion oi its farm pro- duction, especially that of wen-; tern Canada. Canada is once of the world's great exporters of wheat. it is also an important ea- porter of other grains. and nor- mally produces exportabie supplies ber of other products.
In the broadest view. a way must be found to use our food pro- ducing capacity to the utmost to meet the world's need for food. This means solving difficult inter- ' national problems of markets and dairibution.
These are the facts about farm- ing that require the development of a farm policy; that is a system of varied responalbiliies. duties and functions on the part of the individual farmers, organized. grouprof farmers and govern-. ments. such a system must be de- . signed to protect the welfare of the I farmer. the public interest. and
one of which can by itself carry on efficient research. marketing or public relations. The natural han- ards which the farmer must face are many. and the means to com- bat them cannot often be discov- ered or developed by the individ- ual farmer.
Moreover, sparse population in ru- ral areas makes social. municipal and educational rviees expens- ive. and lack of i ustrial develop- ment puts the major burden of tho cost of these services on agricul- tural land.
If left altogether dependent on a free market for their produce. far- mers will on the average receive. in spite of occasional high scarcity prices. less for their investment. their labour and their managerial ability than can be obtained for such assets and skills in other in- dustries. small export surpluses of- ten depress farm prices for the whole jll d d
at the same time. the coming of farm meehanisation has meant that more is sold on forms for cash. and at the some time more sup- plies and equipment must be bought for cash to nan them. Thus the farmer has become increasing- ly vulnerable to changes both in markets and prices for his produc- tion. At the same time head farm investment in machinery. o- quiprnsnt and working capital at- so moans cantor cred rain-

Buslnessrnan Journalist Albert E. Perlln of St. Johns traced the development of education in New ndland.
"Schools of a kind have existed from time to time in some of the more populous settlements before 1123. but it was not until that date that any school was formally established". he said.

Dr. Freclter said the unique, system. only one of its kind in Canada. has its drawbacks. "When an administration problem arises. all five representatives must agree on a solution." Once nthe policy is set the superintend- ents see that it is carried out.
Schools are financed mainly by the province although contribu- tions are made through the churches.
The commission was told earlier in the day Newfoundland needs a new 1,000 bed hospital to bring mental health services up to min- imum standards. as recognized by the federal government. and 400 beds to treat retarded children.
