Resolutions aimed at reshaping some of the party’s concepts and policies ‘now are rolling in from grassroots organizations in time for the three-day convention open- ing here Jan. 14. '‘~ George Marler, chairman of the provisional resolutions committee says he already has received some 170 proposals and expects to have about 200 by convention time. - _ “Resolutions are coming in from all parts of the country,” said the former transport minis- ter, MP for Montreal’s St. An- toine - Westmount. “The wide- spread interest ‘is heartening.” Skimming through the resolu- - time. tions, he found no widespread de-I mand for lower taxes or any sharp increase in social security benefits. Rather, interest ap- peared to be centred on means of expanding the economy, the maintenance of jobs and building of more housing. However, some regional groups did want the party to be in favor of increasing fe d e r al capital grants to hospitals and the de- velopment of a national contribu- tory pension scheme whereby the worker, employer and govern- men would share pension costs. Groups also wanted transfer- able pc sion benefits to allow a worker to transfer benefits of company pension plans from one organization to another at any Some Liberal gr )5 want the national party to go all-out in favor of Britain’s offer of free trade with Canada. There are de- mands also for a distinctive Ca- nadian flag, a national system of scholarships and machinery for Want Housing, Pensions Credit In Liberal Plans pegging the Canadian dollar at par with United States currency. One demand that has particu- larly caught the attention of ‘; party leaders is for a scheme of 3 low - cost housing to meet the needs of those earning about $3,000 a year. The criticism is that the current national housing act is geared mainly to help pro- vide homes for those earning about $5,000 ,a year or more. Party leaders say it is almost certain this resolution will get convention approval and that it is something that the party will attempt to implement if it gets back into power. Another suggestion attracting keen interest is that the “blunt- ness” of the former Liberal gov- ernment’s credit policy—-a policy that became an election issue- be “refined.” This refinement would allow the ‘government to temper any Bank of Canada cre- dit restrictions by making money available to certain depressed areas such as the Maritirnes. The annual meeting of St. Geo- rge’s Junior Farmers was held in ‘St. George’s School on December 27th. The President and Secre- tary-Treasurer then , presented their reports. 1957 presidential report by Geo- rge MacPherson, president: The year just passed has been a busy year for the St. George’s Junior Farmers. We held ten executive meetings during the year with a good attendance. At our 1956 an- nual meeting we had an enroll- those did not join in 1957. We decided to invite young peo- ple who were not members, in- cluding all those who would be sixteen before the l957 Annual meeting, to join at the first of the year. As a result we got thirteen new members, which gives us an enrollment of twenty-five at pre- sent. SCRAPED ROAD We organized a meeting for better snow plow service and a delegation went to see the Minis- ter of Highways. Road scraping was: also undertaken by getting a number of tractors to do a sec- tion before each freeze-up, with the Junior Farmers paying for the gasoline that is used. This aproved very successful, and plans are to continue it this year. We continued to work for rural electrification which was started two years ago, we canvassed all the district and are happy to see part of the line completed this year and hope the remainder will be finished before too long. Our annual short course was planned with an excellent course ‘ to-be held the third week in Feb- ruary. However road conditions made it impossible to hold it. It is hoped that thesame course maybe given this year. One of our main projects was the purl chase of Club jackets, those are black in colour, with red and white trim. St. George’s Junior Farmers Begin Their Eighth Year ment of fourteen. However two of _ and since we are the only group in Kings County, it was decided to‘-have a map of the Country in green with white background, and St. George’s Junior Farmers in red letters. This crest and one- third the price of the jackets was paid for by the group, with each member paying the balance, full price being $11.50. The work on this project was done by a com- mittee of Anthony Campbell and Mildred Campbell. ' We held dances during the sum- mer as well as parties at our members homes and this was handled by a committee of Geo- rge Fitzpatrick, Rose McLellan and Ivan Morrison. We did not enter public speaking or debating competitions. EIGHT PERFORMANCES Instead we put on a concert in which every member had a part. This is what we consider our big- gest achievement of the year. It was a success for two reasons. First we helped to raise money for the group and secondly we staged it eight times, thus bring- ing all our group before an aud- ience more often than if they were in public speaking or de- bating competitions. The concert committee was-Felix Walker, Lucina Campbell and Annette Jay and.to their work is due a large part of the success. The Calf Club, under the direc- tion of their Club Leader, George MacDonald, also took part in the concert. At our June‘ 6th, meeting we had the Executive of the East Prince Junior Farmers as our guests; as well as Mr. Allie Pal- mer, Prince County Agricultural Representative; Dave McLean, Kings County Agricultural Repre- sentative; and Mike Gillis, Cana- dian Broadcasting Corporation reporter who took a tape record; ing of the meeting, which later was heard on the Junior Farm Broadcast. , ' MADE TOUR A new crest was also designed Theatre MONTAGIIE , MON. - TUES. We returned the visit of the East Prince Group, when on July 17th, twelve of our members toured their farms and other places of interest. At our October 11th, meeting we had the New Glasgow and District Jiinior Far- mers as visitors. Mr. Lincoln Dewar was guest speaker at this meeting, as well as chairman for a panel discussion which includ- ed members from both groups. Seven of our members returned the visit by going to New Glasgow their meetings. As your President I represented the St. George’s Group at their banquet held at Shining Waters Lodge, Cavendish. We attended and took part in the activities of a Field Day held at the Experi- mental Farm. We also helped pay for the Red Cross swimming clas- ses and canvassed our District for the Blood Donor Clinic held at Cardigan. Road signs were talked of but we were unable to do work on them this year. We also considered buying a building to hold our dances and meetings, those will be projects for 1958, our group’s eighth year.
