Mr. I... P. [Mf- Isaao, Extension Branch,‘ Prqviri- oial Department of Agriculture. told The Guardian yesterday. Mr. Mofeaac returned to Charlotte- town yesterday. The three main. questions which came up for most discussion at the conference, Mir. McIsaac said, were: Dominion marketing legis- lation; distribution of Western coarse grains and protein feeds; and the allowing of oleornargarlne to be manufactured in or import- od into Canada. Mr. Molsaso said the conference una.‘ ‘y decided to urge the Dominion Government to institute new marketing legislation, and to rectify the present unsatisfactory distribution of Western coarse grains and. feeds. He said the Conference also icoornmended that the Dominion Government ban the manufacture and sale of oleo- margarine in Canada. Such action, the conference believed, wouldlbe in the interests of the consumer as well as in the interests of the Canadian butter producer. Mr. McIsaac re-iterated the opinion of the Hon. J. G. Gard- iner, Federal Minister of Agricul- ture, that the Canadian Federat- ion of Agriculture is now recog- nized as the voice of Canadian farmers from coast to coast Mr. Gardiner, in this connection, head expressed his belief in the solid- ity, the possibilities, and the value of the organization both to Can- adian farmers and. the Dominion Cabinet. other resolutions at the confer- ence Mr. Mclsaac stated, dealt with rural health, airport markets, fertiliser problem's, international ommodity agreements. price re- lotions, soil conservation and re- clamation, and farm income tax. All were discussed in detail and will be presented by the Federat- ion Executive to the Dominion Cabinet in the near future. Mirs. Malcolm MlwLeod. Lorne Valley, and Mr. RA. Prontt. Free- town, remained over for further discussions and the election of officers. In the meantime. the preparat- inr. of a brief for submission to the Dominion Government, and the simplification of agricultural policies are engrossing the atten- tion of the directors. sarong. on Continued from page 1 crease of over 1G points. This in- dex is now up to 146 and some enperts enpect it to surmount the 150 marl: before it tempers off. Translated into Dercentases this means a rise in the average week- ly earnings of 7.5 per cent, during- the period referred to, while- the rise ln the cost of living index was 13.3 per cent. ‘ Wage mites Cited "Wages were highest in tho Province of British Columbia. and lowest in the Maritime Provinces. However, Windsor, Ont, paid the highest average weekly wage 946.50 of any Canadian city where re- corm were examined and Saint John, N. 8., the lowest average of $82.18. This being the case what must the average weekly wage have been in the City 0d’ Char- lottetown when the minimum wage in some cases is leu than $15.00 per week? In view of the above situation my contention, that milk prices in this area should be less than» any oi’ the above areas. seem reasonably justified. "When milk subsidies ceased to obtain during the latter part of ths year 1946 pasteuri-e-d milk products advanced to 14c per quart as of Jan. 1st, 1947, and due to the Dominion Government's removal of subsidies on coarse grains late last fail the price of ordinary mill feeds and concen- trates rose to a new high thus necessitating a demand for an increase in the price-of fluid milk on the part of the primary pro- dueer. "The Milk Board was immedi- ately walted upon by a. delegation representing not only the Char- lottetown area. but several of the larger areas throughout the Pro- vince, with a view to obtaining an increase of 3c per quart which would have raised the price of pasteurized milk to 16c. However. after many meetings and many long hours of discussion. and af- ter a Hoard order making it pos- sible for the primary producer to dispose of his standard milk with greater regularity and in greater quantities, it was finally and un- ‘ ously agreed to fix the price of paateuriaed milk at inc POI‘ quart, same agreement to remain dfective until Sqvt. 1st, I940. "The primary producers deserve great credit for the masonable manner in which they discussed the whole, serious, milk situation and the terms agreed upon. Much as we would wish them to obtain prices comparable with those in the larger centres whore the wage level is greatly in excess of ours, however, conditions as described above would scarcely wsri-antsueh a high price. _ ,_ _ Milk Inspection The Provincial Government should also be commended for its splendid beginning in seeking to provide a cleaner‘ and healthier milk product. At the last session d the l’ ialatlve Assembly lecit- iatlon was enacted by which auth- ority a smitary engineer and a Makes Plea For Assistance To Ghiliiren Mr- Edmund L. Morris, vice Chairman of the Canadian Cam- Pfllln for Children Operative Conrmittee, arrived in Charlotte- town last night and addressed a _P1'°Vlnv1al organization meeting in The Charlottetown Hotel. fir. Morris outlined the complete plan of the Canadian organization and the need for it. ~ Already, he stated. over half of the children born in Europe since me War. are dead and conditions among a great portion of those living are appalling. 1t is for the purpose of aiding these young people that this campaign has been organized in twenty-m; dig- ferent countries, backed-by the United Nations Organization and it's affiliates. The campaign is running in all these countries durins the month of February. The Canadian objective is ten million dollars, which will be uged in the purchase of urgently need- ed supplies, through the purchas- inl agents of the Government of Canada. These squall" will be distributed on the advice of the various Canadian Embassies, Le- gatiotis, or Missions, in the coun- tries wliei-e the need is the great- est and most urgent. In addition to the support sl- readv pledged to this campaign by almost every adult organizat- ion, the school children in ‘the twenty-six co-ovperatlng countries are being mobilized to do their part and present indications point to them doing it most enthusias- tically. Ali across Canada the nucleus of Provincial organizations have been quietly working for the past month getting things in shape for‘the campaign which opens on February ninth. In Prince Edward Island Chief Justice Thane A. Campbell is honorary advisory chairman and the active organizing committee consists of Arthur H. Peake and Capt. J. J. Connolly, H..C.N.R., with B.

Earle MacDonald sent regrets at being unable to be pre- sent owing to the City Council meeting and pledged his whole- hearted support to the campaign. Mr. Lloyd Shaw, Deputy Minister of Education, who is supporting this work very actively through the Department of Education, was unavoidably unable to be present but sent a message to the meeting pledging his continued cal-operat- ion. Premier Jones owing to the sotrm was unable to be present. The Department of Agriculture, through its various allied activit- ies ls also taking an active part in this great work. In fact, it was stated at the. meeting that every organization so far ap- proached is wholeheartedly sup- porting the campaign. Nfr.
