The following operation policy of the Potato Marketing Board was officially approved in detail at a Board meeting held last Tuss- day, September 7th. It should be pointed out that this is the first definite marketing program which has been released by the Potato Board this fall. it is a modified form of a general plan presented earlier to the Board and was based primarily on the type of oper- ation followed by the Potato Board's Selling Atgcnry (luring April. May and June with beneficial results. The original plan which us: only accepted in principle unfortunately uas relcased to the Press by unofficial parties as a final document. This has FJIUSELI a great deal of misunderstanding and confusion which the Potato Board wishes to clarify to potato producers during the next few days.

As soon as farmers have given careful study to this plan and after the Potato Board has agreed on details, such as whether or not a Federal marketing agreement will be operated, the rates of loading commissions for dealers, the probable amount of the initial payment: to be paid producers, actual prospects for prices and gon- eral market conditions, further information will be placed before Is- lend producers and in the meantime anyone who wishes to obtain any further explanation on any phase of the proposed Board oper- ations may obtain auch information by writing in the Boiird office at 123 Kent St., Charlottetown. in thc inezmlimc the Bnnrri wishns tn advise potato producers of the chief reasons for their proposed mar- keting control policy.

I. The Potato Board after attempting to stabilize prices by var- ious orders during the past four years has com-lurierl that liv- only effective method of doing this in thctinterests of Producers is by having complete control of the potatoes for salc sn iii:-it. tho highest possible market price can be bargained for and obtained. Markets can be stabilized by curbing price cutting and other competitive selling factors. This will give protluccrs. dealers and buyers a measure of protection and confidence in the market.

POLICY OF POTATO MARKETING 1954 -1955 SEASON

3. Uniform prices can be paid to farmers at all loading points in the Province.

4. Dealers can buy potatoes from the Agency for shipment any- where outside the Province as long as they will pay the market price at time of shipment or confirmation of sale.

5. if premiums are received for special varieties and grades they will be passed on to produccrs.

6. Dealers can keep in touch with and sell in SDPNRI markets or

outlets which they may have developed. Premiums for special packages. ett'.. can also be secured as usual. 7. if dealers cannot or do not. wish to make sales direct the

Selling Agency will undertake to sell potatoes for them.

3. Liberal loading coinniissinns will he guarsttteed to all Dealers. 9. Loaders or assemblers who do not have warehouse or packag- ing facilities to qualify for a dealer's license may either load for and work through the Dealers with whom they have always dealt, or provide the facilities now i-cquircd by the trade for an effi- cient marketing service and then work directly with the Selling Agency.

i0. Truckers and those loading small boats will be licensed as (ilass "B" DPEIDIV and may cagry nn this business as usiisl pro- viding they too can pay the top market price for the potatoes they wish to ship.

ii. The pl'lllClpIP. mi which this policy is based is that the cost price of potatoes will establish llie selling price and hence the higher the selling price received the higher the return to the pro- ducer.

l2. it is simply a V)siPm of collactivc bargaining which hampers iioiiody unduly. if given a chance to operate unimpeded for a full season we are confident. that all reasonable producers. deal- ers and buyers will be as pleased with it as are the same groups of people who hate organized and operated similar marketing pools in other places.
