~ Farm Machinery Probe - Considered By Minister

REGINA (CP)—Serfous ~ con-

-.¢ideration_is being given to the |

establishment .of a comprehen- | sive inquiry into increasing farm machinery costs, federal Agviculture Minister J. J. Greene ‘said today.

Mr. Greene told a press con- | ference he would discuss with the federal cabinet whether an inquiry’ is mecessary-to ascer- tain if rising costs are justified or if machinery companies ‘are exploiting the . purchasers.”

The minister, in the late stages—of—a—Western—tour,_said.|- he was not, making any accusa- tion against machinery compa- nies but “the costs seem to have gone up at a,faster, pace than the cost of other ‘items that |

....farmers need. This is a Brave | problem for the farmers.”

- Amic farm units.

WORSE IN ‘EAST He said the question of farm- | @rs operating on | sub-marginal |

itraining” or relocation of; jnomic farm operations.

He said it was his beliet that- it would be almost impossible for the government to outline one policy covering all aspects of the farm population.

One policy might be fine bit it would tie the uneconomic farmer to the economic unit and this would be unfair to the bet- ter and more efficient operator,

Mr. Greene said. SEES NO. PROBLEMS

“The minister-said-he-could-see- no problems in*that ARDA and

the Canadian Wheat Board do

“The problem ia so difficult te solve that no one gévernment department can deal with it. It can be solved only by complete co-operation of all departments. We must use every federal agency in, this much needed so- cial battle that is going sad he said.

Mr.. Greene “said it was his opinion that during the last - five or 10 years the federal govern- ment has ‘“‘done a lousy job in the area of giving people on

and we must see their children are treated better.”
