Tobacco Growers Happy About'Delay in Vote Agricuiturai MinIster Good- fellaw's decision ta postpone Indeflnitely a vote an a pro- posed new marketing plan for flue-cured tobacco has been 9eeted with favor by most Durh arn and Northumberland grawers. The vote, sclieduled for this past Monday, wouid have de- cided whether ta abandon the present marketing scheme un- der the Ontario Flue-Cured To- bacco Growers' Association in favor af a marketing plan con- tralled by the government's Farmn Product Marketing Act. "It was tao fast-they didn't know enougli about it," Heu- man Smith, a Part Hope graw- er, said taday. OPposed To Proposai He said that opinion amoog United Counties growers was generally oppased ta the pro- posai af a new form af market- Ing because they were not sure what they'd be getting. "They'd rather stick with the present scheme-at least they knew what it was about," lie observed. Many county growers heard an explanation of the proposed plan at a meeting in Orono lest week. A representative of the provisional committee backi-ng, the switch ta government-con- trolled marketing outlined its features which, hie maintained, would give a better deal ta al growers. Certain marketing operations of the Fiue-cured Tobacco As- sociation have been labelled " discrimina tory" and there lias been dissension within the or- ganization in the last year. Three former directors resign- ed to join the new movement for government contrai. Operated On Shares There are 90 tobacco farms in Durham and Northumber- land, the majority being in Durham.

Wishlul Thinklnt The rumor that present con- troversy aver marketing might lead ta higher puices for the 1957 cuop is wishful thinking, according ta Mu. Smith. On- tario grawers gat nearer the world price list iast year than ever before and they are net lilcely ta go any higlier tis season. "If they did we just cauldn't seli it," he said. Althaugh observers daubt that a vote on the marketing probiem wîll be held this year, tie sponsors af the new seheme said today that the pro- vince wouid open a judiclal in- qulry inta tie operatians of the Flue-Cured Tobacco Asso- ciation next week. Ted Rai trowsky, secuetary of the provisional cammittee, said 500 guawers had urged the in- quiuy at a meeting in Aylmeu. The groweus aiso called on the federal goveunment ta make "final declaration and de- cisian" an an inquiry into tie operations ai the association conducted by the Restrictive Trades Puactices Commission in Febuuary, 1956.
