Following the debate over the e's report, Prime Minister turned down proposals for a select committee to consider the fflvts and for amendment o.‘ the def-once regulations under which Capt.

Both are with an Al- berta Highland Infantry regiment. They've got much in common. Both were unsuccesful candidates in ihe i935 Canadian general elec- tion. QMS. Bedard ran on the Social Credit ticket agairgst the pres- ent Prime Minister, Mackenzie King, in Prince Albert. C.S.M. Hyde cp- posod the then Prime Mlniiter, B. B.

Specific Rroposals Among specific proposals advanc- ed by the delegation were the fol- wing: A price of 19 cents a pound for cheese (based on 1926-29 prices); Minimum prices for butter and other dairy products based on l9- cent cheese: Farm representation on all boards set up by the government to buy dairy products: Creation of a board cf livestock ccmmlsioners empowered to deal with all problems arising in production, transportation, grading and processings of t he livestock and vestock products: Enactment of marketing legisla- on to provide for producer con- Early announcement by the wheat of in the 1941-42 crop yvear: basing of individual growers’ quotas on amount; an increa e in the initial payment for wheat delivered year; ‘his this A processing tax of 50 cents a bushel on wheat milled for domes- tic consumption. the proceeds to be used to increase the initial prire paid the grower; ance to fanners for the construc- ifom of wheat storage facilitie»: con B89 Enlargement of the powers cf the I wartime prices and trade board to enable it to fix maximum prices of goods and services entering info the r product-ion of‘ agricultural commodi- 1 ties.

"We recommend that the Domin- ion government be asked to pro- vide financial assistance for the construction of adequate storage facilities to enable the farmer adjust his deliveries - -" Taking the view that there would be practically no elevator storage space available at the time 0f the 1941 harvest the federation uifged that the wheat board be authorired to make cash advances against that porlion of the 1941 crop which the farmer can deliver during the crop year 1941-42. The Canadian Dairy Farmers‘ Federation listed as reasons for ask- ing higher butter-fat prices the in- creased costs of feeds. higher living costs for fanners. scarcity of farm labor, higher costs of milking ina- chines and other equipment which has to be introduced to offset la- bor shortage, increased value of finiry cattle on the bref market and the live export market for dairy cows in the United States. Since the government has fixed the average wage level for labor in war industries on the basis cf the average ivages from 1926 to 1929. the dairymen suggested the fair price of dairy products also be bas- ed on the average prices those years. The Dairy Federation ex the view it: executive could g1 valuable assistance to the dairy branch of the agriculture depari» merit and pressed that ii importa- tion of oleo margarine became a matter of discussion the dairy pro- ducers should be called into con- sultation. The government was asked to apply correctives so that there would not be the variations which "the Aibmissicn declared existed be- tween the present rafl grading of hog carcasses and the former mac- iice of grading hogs while alive. Tho farmeis asked for a measure of self-determination i'n marketing procedures. “Wit-h enactments of this type now on the statutes of eight; of the nine Canadian provin- ces, we respect-fully aubmit the time essary for inter-provincial producer" collaboration in marketing matters," the submission said.
