Canadas immigration policy should be set up along humani tarian other than economic lines says Pat Hanna director of overseas services for the Presbyterian Church Miss Hanna and local member of parliament Dr Rynard presented two different and sometimes conflicting looks at Canadas immigration policy du ring oneday Conference of Concern held by the Presby tery of Barrie at St Andrews Church Saturday While Dr Rynard looked at the history and economics of immigration Miss Hanna argued the policy should be more hu mane looking at immigrants as people rather than commodities Miss Hanna explained the Pro byterian Church was among sev eral churches asked to reSpond to the federal governments green paper on immigration The director noted the gov ernment had indicated it want ed public response to the paper but then gave such short time for the response that people ques tioned the sincerity of the re quest People who knew said the government was playing game Miss Mama said The speaker said the govern ments point system for de ciding whether person should be admitted is good in that it does away with discrimination but argued there are no questions which make the immigrant ap pear human only an economic commodity Miss Hanna said it is myth to assume that in times of high unemployment immigrants will be taking jobs away from Can adians FILL JOBS Immigrants fill jobs Canadians refuse to do she said adding that in 1974 there were 100000 jobs unfilled in the country with Alberta being the worst prov ince Miss Hanna also pointed to study carried out by Montreal university which shows the ac tual growth rate of Canadians is stabilizing If Canada is to grow she said it will need immigrants The director sold immigrants are used as scuoczouts being blamed for problems which al ready existed sucli as unem ployment and overcrowding of cities Miss Hanna agreed that Mont real Vancouver and Toronto are overcrowded presenting social problems but countered this is also due to lilin migrant rate within the country The speaker quoted from the churchs submlsion to the par Iiamentary committee saying immigration policies in modern Canada have their peculiar prob lems but at least two are the same as the problems of an tiquity our anxiety to preserve our culture and our desire to hold onto our wealth Miss Hanna Oxillzlillcd the Pres byterian church had suggested the departments of manpower and immigration be separated less emphasis be placed on the immigrants education and skills refugee or asylum category be established so that refugee remains free to stay in Canada or go elsewhere but does not have to wait for admission to the country that more immigra tion offices be established broad and that immigration of ficers receive training in other cultures The church also asked that overseas students be given spe VieWs an immigration heard at conference cial status under the act and that study be made of the migrant worker situation ensur ing their rights are maintained OUTLINES PROBLEMS But while Miss Hanna spoke of an open and free immigra tion policy Dr Rynard outlined some of the problems of immi gration Dr Rynard first noted that under current immigration poli cies Canada is drawing the skilled and professional people from countries who are in need of their services He pointed out that in his own profession over half of the doc tors practising in Ontario were not born here creating problems for local doctors He also noted it is harder for Canadian stu dents to get into medical school with so many foreign students being granted positions Canada is country of re sources he said but noted many of the eastern countries are also rich in resources The member of parliament explained many 10 cal industries have indicated there will not be enough jobs adding that Canadians are losing their productivity Canada must maintain bal ance of 30 per cent French and 70 per cent English he said Dr Rynard also pointed to wards the social problems caus ed by immigrants overcrowding Canadas three major cities saying the people are brought into these housing and transpor tation problems The high immigration rate in to cities causes groupings of ethnics who are not easily as similated he said adding that 50 per cent of the students en tering school in Toronto cannot speak English Good crowd at Georgian for challenging program By MURLEL LEEPER The Algoma Music Camp Youth Orchestra drew good crowd to Georgian College Theatre Sunday night for challenging program Many students from the Bar rie area attend the summer Music Camp which is situated at Sault Sic Marie and uses the camp facilities of the YMCA It was his orchestra that was chosen to represent this province at the Music Festival held at Banf last month Ed Gartshore director and lohr Montague conductor chesc program which featured Trumpet Concerto by Haydn Cello Concerto by Vivaldi and LAutunno by Vivaldi violin solo part of the famous Four Seasons Trevor Dearham played the trumpet concert Stephen Mc Nie the cello concerto and Don ald lived the violin solo Stephen McNie is flame musician who has come up throth the ranks of the Barrie string program in the elemen tary schools and has also play orl lo the 113 few years with the lluronia Symphony Orches fro Stephen is now at the Univer shy of Toronto specialiling in music For his performance Stephen played on the Moninier Earnings could have been doubled Simcoe pork producers are told Pork producer ccm Ontario could have practically doubled their earnings if they had got ten out what is known as the pork cycle says lcrry Blulnn secretary to the Ontario Pork Iroduceis Marketing Board The board along with many agricultural groups has used the services of Dr Larry Marlin of Guelph University to study the pork market and hopefully find areas where individual produc ers can improve product quality and earnings One of the main findings of Dr Martins study was the pro duction and profit cycle says Mr Blulnn When there is lots of money in pork production farmers lend to increase their herds This however produces too much pork on the market and prices drop since the mar ket works on the supply and demand principle The answer said Mr llluhni while speaking to the North Simcoc Pork Producers Associa tion Friday is to increase stocks while prices are low then hold steady when the prices are high One of the biggest questions get when present this is What happens if everybody does this Doesnt it desiroy the holc pork cyclcI stlitl Mr Blulnn The answer is that it would but you must consider that Unf ario is only three per cent of the entire North American pro duction so we wont seriously af fect the market Dr Martin set up cuiriputcr model of the entire North Am erican pork industry and was able to calculate what would have happened if Ontario farm ers hadnt stuck to traditional cycle He found the average purl price would have been up $120 per humlrcdwcight and Ontario farmers would have car ncd an extra Simnullion over the last 12 years As to the individual lnrmcr Dr Martin created two liclitiotw farmers one who stuck to the tradtional cycle and one who varied The traditionalist who increawd stocks when prises were high and was forced info Upgrading of smaller forces means less use of mutqu old The Simcoc County Mutual Fire Aid

BOARD Marketing boards have come undcr criticism from the fed cred government food prices review board but Mr Bluhm war quick to point out that the Ontario loik lruduccrs Market l11lnl still 1105 the free market system We set no prices or quotas he said The price of the pork and the amount on the market is strictly up to the pro ducers and the buyers We act basically to even out the market across Ontario and provide each producer with fair return The board has 43 stockyalds atlibri the province to which the individual farmers bring thcr hogs The number and location is reported to the boards head office which has telex link with 11 major packers The lot goes on the felcx with start ing price of perhaps $70 per hun drcdwclght Then an automatic tape starts reducing the price by five cents every five seconds until it has gone down dollar or one of the packers has iii dicutcd by means of but ton at his end of the telex that he wishes to buy This way the deal remains confidential with other packers wlV knowing the price the lot was sold at They dont know who bought it At the end of every week the total proceeds of stock sale are pooled and an average price worked out and each farmer paid that Then the farmers dont have to sweat bout whether to bring their hogs to market on Tuesday or Thurs day said Mr Blulnn The board also sells to about 30 otherpackers who dont have lelex hookups and these work by means of reserve bid They tell the boards telex operator what theyre willing to pay for hogs at certain location and he will then make that bid for them when it comes up It is possible that hogs will consisten tly sell for more the small pack ers first offer in which case he ir advised and can raise his price We are still bound by the principle of supply and demand said Mr Bluhm If packers are not willing to pay the original price asked the telex operator has to lower it And if the hogs are snapped up at the 0iiginal asking price he knows to raise it for the next lot Cello famous instrument loaned by George Heinl of To ronto This was partly the reason for the beautiful tone he drew from his instrument but Stephen handles his instrument with ease and has developed notice ably through the past year The Vivaldi had no technical pro blems for the young cellist and the orchestra gave good ac companiment to the concerto Trumpet soloist Trevor Dear hlam is rising young musician from Alliston lie is making mark in his community and was commended for his performance at Banff He already handles his instrument with considerable skill YOUNG Brian Tracey played the Scandinavian Dance during an allboys recital held Sunday at the Grove Park llomc lhe recital was spon sored by the Barrie Branch Donald Reed violinist plays with certain technical ease and rapidity and good intona tion The young musician is from Sudbury and although Vivaldi Four Seasons needs more ma ture player he handled the cone certo with dexterity He has the potential to develop into an excellent violinist Lynn Langford played the continue part of the Branden burg Concerto splendidly For one so young she intuitively felt the quality of sound expected from the piano for this concerto and tempered it accordingly RimskyKorsakovs Procession of the Nobles brought the very interesting program to bright conclusion of the Ontario Music Teach ers Association and featured boys from
