passed its first read ing and received approval from all political parties chief difficulty raised by opposition leader rt hon w l mackenzie king was that he feared the now plan would meet constitutional stumbling blocks first type of farmer to benefit is one who has become so heavily involved in debt that no additional credit is available to him under the proposed scheme he can niako application to an official receiver to be set up in each judicial district the receiver will be empowered to make an appraisal of the farmers assets and liabilities with a view- to scaling down his debts to a point where they can he reasonably met on the basis of an appraised value of the property and its productive value as well loan board to rescue the indebtedness as scaled down would be met either by a loan from the farm loan board or by mortgage companies the interest rate would be not more than six per cent in addition with the farmers debts taken care of provision would be made to supply him with sufficient ready money to carry on through a second mortgage advanced by the farm loan board through mortgage companies on security of the mort gage at an interest rate not greater than seven per cent if after calling a meeting of the creditors the official receiver fails to arrange a settlement the farmer may then take the matter to a pro vincial iboard of review or arbitra tion tribunal consisting of the judge haiving jurisdiction in bankruptcy and representatives of debtors and creditors its decisions will be bind ing scaling down mortgnges second avenue of relief is propos ed legislation whereby the farmer with a longterm mortgage obliga tion at more than 7 per cent interest is to be enabled to use facilities of the federal farm loan board to proffer to the creditor full principal and interest together with three months interest bonus and get a discharge ot the onerous contract it the mortgagee declines to accept payment ho may not thereafter charge more than 5 per cent inter est on the debt existing farm loan legislation is to be amended to extend loaning powers to 60 rather than 50 per cent of property value this additional borrowing facility is to be proferred the farmer who has arranged his debt burden with his creditors the proposal is to advance money on first mortgage at not more than g per cent and then if necessary a second mortgage amounting to a maximum of 25 per cent of the first will be available at 6 v per ceut enabling legislation in tne prov inces would bo required for many of the provisions of the debt adjust ment act and such legislation has already been passed in alberta and saskatchewan and others are pend ing provisions of the debt adjust ment act come into operation when proclaimed with the exception of that clause relating to liquidation ot mortgages in excess ot seven per cent which becomes effective im mediately the act is given royal assent amendments to the farm loan act provide in brief for an enlarge ment of the variety of property that may be taken as security and for an increase of the amount that may be loaned to two thirds ot the property value the now proposal is to advance money on a first mortgage at not more than six per cent up to about 40 per cent of the value of the property secured by the real pro perty of the farmer as at present then a second mortgage amounting to a maximum of 25 per cent of the first at about 6 per cent will be available on the chattels for quick action it is provided that where a farm is mortgaged and the farmer unable to secure needed funds

aged 67 years funeral service was held at his late residence tuesday evening at 8 pm interment in walkerton cemetery wednesday the glory of the country by g w lynd the kiss of the sun for pardon the song of the birds for mirth youre nearer gods heart in a garden than anywhere else on earth man like every other living creature lives in contact with the earth dependent upon the soil for his existence this was is and ever shall be by this approach we readily see the importance to the nation ot the worker in agriculture the parent industry it has been stateu by a promiueut farm leader that the rural people are the vital tap root by which this contact with the earth takes place and agriculture the sap which nourishes the whole plant the rural worker is still the back bone of the nation as in the past the farm people are capable of giving leadership mentally morally and spiritually there is general feeling in rural sections that this worth and importance to the nation has not always been rocognized wealthy interests bring pressure to bear upon governments to secure privileges at the expense ot the primary producer in a century the farmer has mov ed from a position of independence pnd selfsuillciency to one ot interde pendence and specialized effort mans knowledge of tho forces of nature has been immeasurably in creased invention and discovery have multiplied his powers many times in all directions the farmer no longer stands helpless in the face of pests formerly regarded as acts or god and uncontrollable specialization bringing new methods of agriculture has also brought an lincrease in urban manufacture the problem of production is now solved for the first time and humanity need no longer foe dogged by the grim spectre of famine surely it is a sad commentary on human nature that with such abundance we have want and insecurity national leaders sit discussing means of lessening pro duction as if we should not thank god for his sunshine and rain and golden harvests but thank him for drought blight hail grasshoppers and untimely frosts we have reach ed the borders of the promised land wherein thou shalt eat bread with out scarceness thou shalt not lack anything in it the need is for strong and courageous men to go in and destroy the anakins of selfish ness greed avarice ignorance and prejudice which bar the way how may we enrich our rural life under the abnormal conditions of economic depression this presents a great problem our rural people are greatly troubled by an inferior ity complex there is a tendency to belittle country work in comparison with urban employment resulting in e trek from tho country to the city we must lose some of our excessive j modesty and acquire a pride in our occupation the little red school- bouse and the rural church have been the main avenues of enrich ment in the past today they must be modified to better serve the rural people in this new age of wonders j our system of state education must change with a view to development of a rural culture after a week of strenuous toil tired people sit in church trying to keep awake much lot the drudgery xiust be removed from farm life the burden of the jfarm woman demands lightening leisure time must be provided and j must be used rccreatively to a great extent the program ot the church is dominated by urban thought definitely rural require ments must receive more careful attention rural ministers must de velop a rural outlook and an appreciation of peoplo and things i ural the bible is really a rural book the great leaders of israel lived contact with nature and with natures god jesus spent a great deal of his time upon the hillsides of judea tho vital truths which ho taught then are still irrefutable itho power of his laws of love has i not diminished with his kingdom of god as our ideal let us not be content to see agriculture as a means of making a living let us see il as a way of life add only 391 names to east york lists work of tho
