New Glasgow Meeting turns Down scheme

A large and representative meet- ing of stock breeders-W in num- ber-was held at New Glasgow yesterday afternoon and passed unanimously a resolution dis- approving of a sheep and swine marketing scheme. The vote was lbflfor and none against the reso-

on.

The resolution was adopted fol- lOWlfIg much discussion in which many constructive suggestions were offs-red fol" the llnprovclncnt. of bog mn-skciiilg in tlic province. The general principle oi‘ cn-opr-r- ution was approved by all who spoke but fault was found with the manner in which marketing has been done under the present sys-

m

came ilrfor a considerable amount of criticism. The chairman of the

meeting was Mi‘. Cccil Laird. New

Glas-

gow. Mr. Alder Dickicson was the.

secretary. Criiiciscd Scheme '

The first speaker was Ml‘. Alls- tln Laird who outlined steps load-i inc up to the drafting of thel I

present system. He charged that‘

the manager was engaged in pl"iv- .0, 1e

ate enterprise in selling Iced.‘ poultry rind wcauci" pigs and part of the cost came out of the Board with no account. being given of‘ these sidelines. I

The spread between what thel tplacksr in Montreal paid and what

e producer received was $1.10 per 100 pounds. lie said. This was too much as the Hunter River Ship- ping Club could do it for 35c per 100 lbs. he added. Further, the expenses of the Board were too high and included $932.00 paid for advertising-chiefly in the Agri- culturlst. $2500 pnid the manager. He urged an investigation as pro- vided for under the Natural Pro- ducts Marketill! Act.

Ml". Ernest Houston read aloud the terms of the marketing scheme and some discussion followed.

Favors Plan

Al, this juncture M1‘. Murdock MncLcod. 1.0118 River, entered the meeting as a representative of the Provincial Board. He spoke in fav- or of the scheme and urged the farmers not to do nwny with the organization and measure of co- operation they already possess no matter how im crfcct. it might be.

He stressed tie used of lmllfvv- ing the organization rather than knocking it. The bar alnlng power oi’ one central organ zation was s great benefit to stock raisers.

Mr. Houston quoted figures to show that expenses per 100 lbs. had increased even though the volume sold had also increased.

No Assurance

The farmers had no assurance that costs would be cut under the new scheme.

Several expressed the opinion that the resent system was sound and san ut had not been carried out properly.

The resolution disapproving the scheme was mOv by Austin Laird. Cavendish and seconded by Granville Buntaln, Rustico and discussed by 0. C. LcPage. Prea- ton carnpbeli, Brenton Dlckleson and others.

Suggestions for the improvement of the resent or any other scheme were a vanced from the floor and the necessity of a central selling agency was stressed. Some sug- gested that the Island be divided nto zones for the pooling of prices and expenses.

It was advocate that local clubs be recognized. The cost of shipping could be reduced by call-

‘lng for tenders for club secretaries

and for the trucking of hm to packing‘: plants" Club sec ries could mer months. thus commissions st head office could be cut in half.

Mr. Houston felt that if costs could not be reduced at head of- fice it might be necessary to re- tgirga to the old system of shipping cu .

age Nazi explosive and fire 55mi5s had done to war industry.

, Without official sponsorship. I went where I wanlod to and saw {what I wanted to. I visited fuc- ‘iory after factory and talked to officials and workmen in every city that had been attacked heav- ily; Coventry, Southampton, Bristol Birmingham, Liverpool, Man. cheater and dozens of smaller in- dustrial centres in the midlands.

I found many factories that had been destroyed or damaged 5min clently to stop production, but I found almost 10 times as many that had not been hit.

And to the wartime Briton all that matters is to keep up war production.

Two days before I left England, I talked with a high official who h” charge of tarbulating damage to what are officiall termed “key Dointsfl-Jessential lhdustry and communication.

“so what...

_ "To us it is a question o1 brutal iealism.’ he said.

Naturally it's hard if your wile or children are killed by bombs. if the business your famil has work- ed generations to bull has been destroyed overnight. But as far as the war is COIICerned, to 115g om of your favorite American expres- sions: so what!

"Cur factories are still turning out the arms with which to smash back at Germany, and our com- nlunicatlon networks arg 3cm transporting them."

AlJflrt from London the two hardest nit. cities in England have been Coventry and Southampton. There the damage is almost un- believably bad. After the war l5 over it Will take three to five years to rebuild them.

badly hit tllfy make Coventry look like n. thriving city. Ill Birmingham whole sections, including rt of its central business dlstric, have been knocked into hollow shells or buildings.

iverpool and Manchester, on ' ollwl" hand, have had it com pnratlveiy easy.

In London, except for the east end. damage 1 left, was SPOPT-Y- The great fil"e raid on the business district happened since.

Approximately nine tenths of _ greater London .is - open- space- parks, rivers. lakes and streets. A large percentage of bombs drop- ped from high altitudes necessar- llY must explode harmlossiy in these open areas.

Damage to cities, in addition to the estimated five per cent more

' ss permanent physical dam- age t0 industrial plants, neverthe- less has had the effect of slmving up production.

Workers‘ homes have been de- stroyed; suburban bus and rall- road lines to factory areas have ;been put out of action temporar- uly, and local food supplies have been destroyed.

If a man can't get his three ysquarc nlcals a day. if his means ‘of getting to and from work has been knocked out, if he has no ‘home to go back to for a night's sleep, his work suffers.
