It siso large (it can accomodate a 50,00 ton ship) that it had to be cut in two for passage through the uSez Canal. This picture shows:â€" The first half of the dock being warped througfi the El Firdan Swing bridge while a R.A.F. spotter aircraft flies over the top. The second half of the dock can be seen approaching But first it would be well to present the main factors in the agreements as they affect Canadian farmers generally in regard to the prices arranged for them, not by them, and the controls that now govern them. It should be considered fair to contrast the farm posâ€" ition in Canada at this with the position of farmers in the U.S.A. In Article 10 Canadian farm prices in almost all lines were shown to be about 45 per cent less than those obtained. by U.S.A. farmers. At the same time, as disclosed in Senate debates, the U.S.A. farmer can buy a whole range of supplies for farm and home, tractors, farm implements, electrical equipment, cars and so forth, at a price about 30 per cent less than these cost the Canadian farmer. and the U.S.A. farmer retains his freedom in a free market. Later on the matter of parity in farm prices will be taken up for it entered into the House debates on these British agreements. Farmers across the border have won a parity position as the above figures indicate. That desiredâ€"goal is still to be achieved in Canada. On the domestic level it will be seen, therefore, that the Canadian farmer as to both prices and costs is in an unfavorable position comâ€" pared with his neighbor across the 1ine. Getting away from the dometsic picture to again open up the question of the British agreements for further detailed discussion t will be of interest to quote the main commitments in these byâ€"latâ€" eral arrangements. The Minister of Agriculture and the Minister of Trade and Commerce for Canada arranged with Mr. Strachey, the British Minister of Food, to supply the following quantities of Canâ€" adian foodstuffs for the periods mentioned. Now in regard to the situation generally and the British agreeâ€" ments particularly, the question ijis, have the constantly changing policies of our present government led to the agricultural stability it will be of interest to quote the man commitments in these byâ€"latâ€" country in world markets? © The answer is found in Hansard, Feb. 3, in the address of John Bracken which will be quoted later. Bringing the matter down to a concrete basis so that the posiâ€" tion may be better understood by the hard working farmer of the back concessions we quote from Hansard debates, P.1742; "A tractor bought in Canada costs 1,225 bu. of good hard wheat; in the U.S.A. 710 bu. The same tractor costs 11 finished 1,000â€"lb. steers in Canada, only 6 in the U.S.A. For the same machine it takes 46 selected, 210 lb. Canadian hogs and only 26 in the U.S.A. Under the Wheat Board, a total of 600 million bushels of wheat for a tentative 4â€"year delivery. UfAder the Marketing Act, the folâ€" lowing: 120 million lbs. of beef annually down to 1949; 10 million lbs. of mutton and lamb to 1947; 83 mllion dozen eggs for the next two years; 600,000 cases of processed milk products to 1948 and 125 million lbs. of cheese down to May, 1948. Discussion on these will sontinue as we go along. csvesser So far the articles in this series have dealt with the political situation by way of contrast between the Ottawa Liberal adminisraâ€" tion and the policies advocated by the Progressive Conservative Party led by John Bracken, for one or the other of these parties will form the next government. The position of agriculture is now being examined so that farmers, who will determine the issue, may be well informed before an election is called. These British Agreements were later laid before parliament for ratification. The debates that ensued have revealed the attitude taken by the parties most interested. They will be discussed as we go along. These views will include those of the parties in the House, the British Ministry of Food, the Canadian Federation of Agriculture and probably, the views of outside countries. A very fair picture will thus beâ€" uchieved. â€"â€" _0 o0 s o cce s CC CC UA WE | apowe up the Canal in the distance. Two previous articles have dealt with the British Food Agreeâ€" ents made without consulting parliament and the two arbitary conâ€" trols set up over farm producers; the Wheat Board Act and the Farm Products Marketing Act. Under these farmers lose all freedom over their surplus production. It has been shown that farmers are losing scores of millions by being forced to accept prices far under present world markets.
