(C?)-Canedra dairy tsrmera proposed Monday that the government aubaidlaa milk and hutter sales to widows and elderly inlk and provide free milk for school children. Gilbert McMillan of Huritlngdon. Que.. president of the Dairy Farm- ers of Canada. proposed also that the government export some 2!.- nooooo pounds of butter-similar to the amount imported in l95l-52- tn help overcome the problems of surpluses in Canada's dairy indus- try. He also asked that the govern- ment. continue its present butter support price of 58 cents a pound uhoicsale,-giving farmers assur- ance "at an early date" that the floor price will remain intact when the new butter production year opens next May l. "wreck the price of butter," he told delegates to the annual fed- eral-provincini agricultural confel'- once. "and you wreck the dairy in- dustry. Without a floor price on butter. the industry will have no stability." Mr. McMillan's views contrasted with those of Grant M. Carlyle of Calgary. president of the National lmry Council. W ho said in Toronto that government subsidies to the dairy industry are like a narcotic and should not be continued in- definitely. rr.vri.aixs -'1-noraoaxna" Mr. McMillan said the "propa- Randl" being waged against floor prices stems from the reason that Such 11 program costs the taxpayer little but gives the producer a large share of tiie consumer's dollar.

OPPOSE LOSS ON EXPORT The National Dairy Council, which represents dairy rhanuxac. turers and distributors, and the Canadian Association of Consum- ers have asked that the govern- ment provide Canadians with but- ier at below-cost rather than have it exporicd at a loss. The world butter price is about 45 cents a pound. Mr. Gardiner also said exper- ience has shown that a fioorprice of 58 cents a pound wholesale is the price which has helped Canada produce her requirements of about 300,000,000 pounds a year. He said if it becomes necessary at any time to change the 58 cents floor "all other price levels would change.” Mr. McMillan said the Urriit-(l Kingdom and the United States are putting money into providing free milk for school children and Can- ada should do the same. The gov- ernment also should subsidize sales of milk and butter to needy wid- ows. the blind and old age pen- tcontinued on Page 5 col. l) RoyaTYochr To Be Broken Up CAMPBELTOWN.

At New High School Opening TORONTO (CF)-Grant M. Car- lyle of Calgary. president of the National Dairy Council. said Mou- day subsidies to the dairy induairy are like a narcotic and ahould not be continued indefinitely. The dairy industry cannot meet competition for survival against other industries "if we allow our- selves to be tied more and more securely to beaucraiic controls." he iold the Ontario Milk Dl.Itributora' Association. The tatement was included in the tex of a speech issued to the press before delivery. The only two dairy products now Affected by subsidies are butter and ebeeae. The federal government guarantees a floor price of 58 cents Ii pound on butter by buying all llmilliion 86 cents. surplus at that price. it has alao INDUSTRY HEAD SAYS SUBSIDIFS LIKE DRUGS Would End Dairy Aids guaranteed a price of 24 cents a pound for cheese but has not had in buy any. an official said. Mr. Carlyle said the federal gov- ernment's floor price on butter is affecting the industry's ability to compete with butter substitutes. "BATTLE FOB SURVIVAL" The dairy industry was entitled to "reasonable and modest protect- ion agaimi cheap foreign imports." The public waa entitled to share in any price cilia made in the sale of govommenb eld surplus stocks of butter abroa or in Canada. and to "complete protection against de- ce tidh in offering substitutes for cal; in the guise of dairy fooda." Mr. Carlyl said he is convinced "that we an engaged in a battle dairy fnnd.:.'.1tiri that we are at- tempting to fight the battle with our right hand tied behind our brick." "By that I mean that we are al- lowing these substitutes the advant- ages of free competition in ihe market place, while we refuse to meet them on the one principal issue of price. "How in the world we can expect to survive when the price of our product is held artificially at about twice the level of the substitute product. I do not know. Continua- ion of this policy will certainly re suit in the loss of most of our domcatic market, while production is maintained at the taxpayers' ex- pense for the benefit of people be- afier, signalling the end of the 6.000-man fighting unit.
