TORONTODOMINION The Bank where people make the difference GET A GREAT CHAIN SAW dispute last week with a statement summarizing go vernment policy lem said Mr Olson is low price for Southwestern Ontario corn and the fact that Ontario prices are de termined by the price of imported US corn But any action that would force the price of Ontario corn out of line with US corn would dam age the economic position of Eastern poultry beef and hogs which compete with US meat for the North American market Mr Olson goes on thoroughly he possibility of controlling imports through system of import permits It has been suggested that the importation of corn be subject to the issuing of a permit by some marketing agency such as the Can adian Wheat Board which now issues import permits for wheat oats and barley The possibility exists that American corn the price level at which the American Government sup ports corn prices that is a bushel in American In this case I am seeking approval to have Canadian Government officials approach the Go vernment of the United States of America with the current price of corn it is recognized that current lev els leave some producers in difficulty It is the view of this Government that or derly marketing of corn would provide some relief a this area However the means by which pro ducers themselves could solve this problem and it must be noted that pro ducers have rejected past efforts to create an agency to bring orderly market ing to the Ontario corn in dustry The Federal Go vernment does not have the power under any exist ing legislation to
