FRIDAY. FEB. 18. 1949 llairy Production Problems in reply to consumer complaints at the Pr!“ of milk the National DalFY cmmcll ("e5 9 midi made by the Department of Public Health Nu- trition at the UniversifY °I T°'°"_l°~ Th" ‘may puts the increase in the cost of milk in the Pei‘ iod August, 1939 to August, i948, at 50 Pemelil as compared with 128 percent for all other focds. The figures quoted are for Toronto, but apply with minor variations to all W?" °l The country. Incidentally it is noted that whereas in i939 the average daily wage of wvrlsersl" manufacturing industries would buy 3B quarts 0f milk, today the daily wuss W!" buy 42 overt?- or 10 percent more. For the milk distributors Ii is claimed that their raw material costs have jumped 112 percent since 1939, with wage bills up another 60-75 percent. __ Butter production is another story tied to prices paid to farmers. One of the main reasons for last year's butter shortage was the fact that under controls milk used in butter paid the farmer less than milk used in other dairy pra- ducts — and that of course resulted in diversion of milk from butter to other products. As a result of the margarine decision, dairy farmers are now demanding that butter be taken out from under controls. The milk supply — which means fluid milk and milk used in butter, cheese and other dairy products — was, in 1948, the lowest per person in seventeen years. And the cow population of Canada was 250,000 less than in 1940 while human population in the‘ same period jumped l,5(X),000. Price factors are at the bottom of both situations. The consumer has been bucking what he feels is a too-high price for butter and milk. The farmer, by and large, feels his re- turn from these operations is inadequate. One of the answers to the dairy farmer's present problems would come from increasing the milk output per cow. Projects such as herd management, artificial insemination, better feed- ing and pasture management could, it is esti- mated by Ontario's director of dairying, Mr. C. E. Lackner, raise production per cow from an average 5,000 lbs. to 7,000 lbs. with increased butterfat content. The importance of the dairy industry may be gathered from the fact that last year pro- duction value was well over half a billion dol- lars, accounting for about 25 percent of all farm production. The industry produces one-third as many dollars as Canada's grain and field crop farmers combined; its dollar volume is nine times that of the fruit-growing industry, while in the food field butter and cheese alone eclipse bread and bakery products by nearly two to one in dollars. Back of the 475 quarts of milk a year that the average Canadian consumes in one form or another are: 430,000 dairy farms; over 1,100 creameries; nearly 900 cheese factories; 173 com- bined butter and cheese plants; 3i concentrated milk manufacturing plants; many hundreds of milk pasteurizing and distributing plants, and over three and one half millio-n cows or about one cow per family: According to the National Dairy Council's estimate, the industry, directly or indirectly, is a source of income for one-sixth of Canada's population. Wartime Letter llato . The annual report of the Postmaster-Gen- eral of Canada shows that the Department had a balance of $9,827,491 on the operations of the fiscal year 1947-48. This is the ninth consecu- tive year Canada's post office business has turn- ed a profit. Total postal revenues of $91,613,618 for the 12 months ended March 31, 194B, were $5,212,- 667 higher than those for theprevious year; while expenditures amounted to $67,943,475, as com- pared with $64,943,475 in 1946-47. Net reven- ues were $77,770,967 in 1947-48, as against $72,986,624 in the preceding year. The surpluses were $9,827,491 last year and $8,773,554 in 1946-47. The Department has shown a surplus giéggiging almost $10,000,000 for each year since This record would seem to present a con- clusive case against the 4-cent letter rate, es- tablished as an emergency measure in war times, and continued since without any appar- aglgacaasity. ‘ Just its Important Noting that both Prime Minister St. Lau- rant and Transport Minister Chevrier have conic out strongly in support of the St. Lawrence sdawoy project and power development, which involve a cost to Canada of approximately $150,- 0W,000, the Sydney Post-Record aptly observes: "it is pertinent to observe that if this costly undertaking is to be financed, so far as Canada is concerned, for the almost exclusive advantage of the Central Provinces and the West, tho precedent it offers for such under- takings ds the bridging of the Strait of Canso, and the electrification of the Maritime: through otaam-powered plants using Maritime coal, can- ‘ not but be regarded as conclusive and unanswer- able. Hundreds of millions of Canadian money have already been used to create and expand the Erie and other canals which serve central Can- adian shipping. The amount spent on improving _ and aiding navigation on rife St. Lawrence, if added to the capital and maintenance costs of our canal aystanis, will disclose that Canada has made a staggering outlay in this connection for fig ‘benefit of Ontario and Quebec. No ' _ or, has over been raised with any of than expenditures by the tho Maritime Provinces whom glad exhausted waiting for an even deal that will give them equality of economic opportunity with the rest of the Dominion." The above comments apply, 'not only to the Canso waterway and the electrification of the Maritimes, but to the Chignecto Canal, the new highway ferry at Borden and improvements to the Wood islands-Caribou service. These under- takings are essential to Maritime development and they should be of just as much concern to the Prime Minister and Transport Minister at Ottawa as improvements to navigation and el- ectr; power development an the Great Lakes. ./ EDITORIAL NUIES l, r O Among the chief objectors in St. John's to NFLD. entering Confederation are those who will have income Tax to pay. The rate here is considerably higher than it is there. The New York Times, concerned about the possible extinction of the human race, prints a little verse calling for warning signs: "No Huntin'l No Shootin’! No Fission!" * it I There has been an increase of a quarter- million bushels of potatoes exported to the U. S. A. this season to date, compared with the previous year; 2V2 millions compared with 2% millions. t i‘ I Little sympathy need be wasted on the lobster poachers who have lost gear as a result of air-sea patrol activity. Poaching is not mere- ly law-breaking but results in direct loss to the industry, that is, to those fishermen who con- scientiously abide by the rules. i i I The Commons having approved NFLD. un- ion legislation, the Senate will not take long to give it its "OK". Then the measure will go to London for endorsation by the Parliament there, after which all will be clear for the Ancient Colony losing its identity in the Confederation of Canada. Q O I The annual report of the Bank of Canada does not support the policy of abandoning the British for the American market. ln fact it suggests that "it is desirable from every point of view that the emphasis should be on (Brit- ain) selling more to Canada, rather than on buying less from Canada." I i Q The importance of keeping the public in- formed on public affairs was emphasized by Justice Minister Garson recently. "We have seen many instances," he ‘said, "where well-conceiv- ed governmental policies of the highest import- ance have been frustrated for no other reason thanthat the public did not know what these policies were and therefore was not able to play its indispensable part in relation to them when the time came for it to do so." i 1' ~fr Another link with the past of the once popular and profitable silver fox industry is broken by the death of Mr. Frank Tuplin. Ho was one of the Fathers of Fox Ranching, being in the enterprise from its birth. Not many of the 1910-13 ranchers are now left to tell the tale of those sensational days when men made for. tunes overnight; while not a few lost them by i917 when the then war played havoc with the London and New York fur sales, and burst the boom. i i l Ari Ottawa dispatch says that sometime be- tween prorogation and dissolution, the St. Lau- rent Cabinet will be reshuffled, at least 3 Min- isters being dropped and 3 new ones appointed. Postmaster-General Bertrand, it is said, will go to the bench, Public Works Minister Fournier to the Senate, and Secretary of State Grimm to an unmentioned destination. The incoming Cabinet recruits will include the youthful Hug- ues Lapointe and Mr. Bradley of Newfoundland, who, it is understood, has signified his willing- ness to become identified with the Canadian Liberal party. I I Canada's c.d age pension legislation will not apply to Newfoundland until after the Island's Provincial Government has passed em- bodying legislation. The Federal Government pays 75 per cent of the cost of pensions up to $30. a month. The remainder is paid by the province. The pensions are administered by the. provinces. Mr. St. Laurent told the House it was not possible to devise a means of paying tlvi Canadian pensions before the Newfoundland Legislature has been elected and has passed a pension act. it likewise found that retroactive payments of pensions should not be attempted. He recalled that Quebec did not pass old age pensions legislation for many years after the Federal Government had agreed to pay 75 per cent of the costs. Q 0 a a Edward Hyde, lst.

CO-OPERATIVE PRINCIPLES Sin-In the editorial notes ap- pearing in your issue of February 14th, I think your views on the reason for the growth of the ca- operatlve movement are very un- fair. When you refer to the open membership for the purpose of avoiding taxation, it is not surpris- ing where there are so many peo- ple as is found in the co-operatlve movement, ta find some of them who do not fully understand the principles of co-operatlon, but to me it is surprising to know that there are so many educated people who do not understand these prin- ciples.

It. is cold that tihe Suminerslde nominee ivas at that. time a. pris- oner of 'WHII' lu Japan. That re- minds me that the Conservative leader. George Drew, has had a good deal w say about the Japan- ese or Hang Kong episode. I-le could find nothing iio commend in regard to that whole affair. He was so strong in his denunciation that n Royal Commission unden- Chlef Justice Duff was appointed to consider the matter. I do not. wish to extend furtiheir my remarks about Hang Kong be- cn-use Brigadier Price in his oc- ceplnuce speech did not ask for suppcirt fcr any glorious nulltary achievrrnenl at. I-lorig Kong. l-le has other ideas as to winning of elections. They are "to work. air- ganize a-iid other things" and hie added, "I think iiuey would have all ‘three this time."

I choose an item or irwo from The Guardian to hand (Ilhb. l2). Those is a two-line story from Budbury, England, which says: "A farmer's son, aged seven, drives a tractor ln this Buffolk village." Thar may be considered smart business; but. I'm not impressed with "otmd labor", ‘ "y tn handling a tractor. In dealing wit-h this dangerous implement (my farm editor has termed lt. "the most lethal weapon ln the farm scene") I think l: should be against the law for a ohlla under l5 to be at the controls, alone?

I was intrigued by the wording of the report, for when I irlslted the jall a few months ngo the WOITLS "good con- dlhlon" would apply to neither the jaill itself nou- to its inmates. since I wield no influence in local polfllcs, and since any report I would make would be breaded as mere emotlonallsm, I am led, to b1- lleve iii-at. what I saw was the usual state of affairs at the jaill.
