The finance committee Thurs- day night drew up its third draft budget, incorporating a compro- mise membership fee, assess- ment, for presentation to the meeting today. Ontario has been unwilling to accept a $3 assessment, said to be necessary if the federation is to remain financially stable. The compromise assessment increases per capita costs from $1.75 to $2.50 plus an additional 50 cents for a building fund. It means Ontario's 80,000 members will be paying nearly half the estimated $550,000 in come of the 170,000 member na- tional organization. The $3 individual assessment represents only a fraction of what teachers pay in dues to their local associations, but it also represents one-half of what local Ontario associations pay the provincial organization. Ontario was the only province to vote against the proposed In- crease Thursday. They were not prepared to go above $2. Observers feel this is indica- tive of a feeling among Ontario teachers that they are powerful enough in their own right to make federal representations on their own behalf and do not need a strong national organi- zation. The fee increase will be bind- ing on Ontario teachers if they wish to remain in the federa- tion, Mrs. Florence Irvine of An- caster, director of the Ontario delegation, said she was not sure her membership would ac- cept the new assessment. If they did not, the federation woul dhave to throw Ontario out. "We're not walking out." She said Thursday's vote had not settled the underlying prob- lems within the federation. Gerald Nason, federation sec- retary-treasurer, said the new assessment would not permit a "significant expansion" of pro- grams since the additional 50 cents was earmarked for build- ing and accommodation. Pres- ent programs and services | Canada's Economy Could Be | Affected By Prairie Weather _ By THE CANADIAN PRESS The long, hot summer may be appreciated by vacationers but it has raised the specture of a Prairie crop failure which could affect the country's economy. Scorching weather has plagued Prairie farmers for the last week and the 80-degree plus readings added to a month-long drought have sapped moisture from fast-maturing crops. Some fallow crops in Sas- katchewan are showing signs of burning and the last vestiges of moisure are being drained from Alberta crops. Crops in Mani- toba are fair to good, but rain is needed. In Regina Thursday, Premier Ross Thatcher said the prov- ince's drought threat was "'suf- ficiently critical' to warrant federal aid. He intends to dis- cuss the situation when he meets Prime Minister Pearson today. Opposition Leader Diefen- baker, in Saskaoon Thursday, said predications now being made indicate a 'drought of catastrophic proportions is with us again. ...." OUTLOOK GRAVE The Saskatchewan wheat pool said crop prospects in the heart of the grain belt are the poorest since 1961. That year. the wheat yield was 124,000,000 bushels, or 8.2 an acre compared with last year's record 546,000,000 bush-! els, 27.7 an acre. One wheat pool agent said rain that fell in the Prince Al- bert region did little more than "refresh" the air and the situ- ation now is "grim." Precipi- of the year has been less than 30 per cent of normal. The Dominion Bureau of Sta-| tistics, in his latest crop re-| port, says '"'good rains are re-| quired immediately." | In Alberta the agriculture de-! partment said despite almost) critical conditions well-fertilized pected to show an average yield. In Winnipeg, The Free Press, in a crop summary prepared from reports across the Prairies, said the total Prairie wheat yield likely won't be much more than half last year's record 844,000,000 - bushel har- vest. CROPS THREATENED | But federal government offi- cials Thursday said the threat- ened crop failure should not jeopardize Canada's ability to fill its wheat export commit- ments, but it could serious!y af- fect the economy. | Anything significantly less than this year's prediction) will run to $60,152,000,000. A crop failure would affect| rail traffic and port handling activity, result in less farm ma- chinery purchases and reduced retail sales across the Prairie. Last year Saskatchewan farm- }ers pocketed an income of $670,- 000,000 and farm income was $567,000,000 in 1963. This com- pared with $100,000,000 in 1961 when the wheat and corase grains crop was less than 500,- tation in the area since the start 000,000 bushels. Bomb Threat Postpones Coldstream Guards Flight EDMONTON (CP) -- A tele- phoned bomb threat Thursday night grounded an airlift of a 75-man contingent of Coldstream Guards returning to London after a month of training at Camp Wainwright, Alta. One of two planes in the air- lift had taken off when the threat was received at Canadian Forces Base Namao, five miles north of Edmonton, that a bomb had been planted aboard. The airborne RAF Britannia landed at Lakehead airport near Port Arthur. The other was cleared of personnel and searched in Edmonton. A search of both planes was continuing. A Canadian military spokes- man said a caller, about 10 p.m.| MST, telephoned Namao airport and said that British troops were being airlifted and that a bomb was on board. The Coldstrean. Guards, who arrived in Alberta from duty at Buckingham Palace, were due to leave. at 6:30 p.m. from Na- mao. The threat is the third this month -- two involving armed forces.
