Foreign Markets Expanding Says Liberal Speaker Pickering, May 17 -- Canada should benefit substan- tially when the final plans for ERP aid are announced. This prediction was made Saturday night by Ralph McCubben, M.P. for Mddlesex North and parlaimentary assistant to the Minister of Agriculture, in addresses to Lberal adherents at Pickering and Claremont Satur-o day night. Apart from this factor, the fed- eral government will continue to | seek more and more foreign mar- kets for Canadian farm produce and it is hoped that the embargo on export of Canadian cattle to the United States can soon be lifted, Mr. MoCubben declared. "I need not remind you that this restriction had to be imposed dur- ing wartime due to the necessity of stabilizing prices. It 18 my hope that beef products will soon be able to cross the line again." Referring to the United States as Canada's most logical market for beef, the speaker pointed out that the United Kingdom had never provided a good market in this re- spect. "However, Great Britain has afforded our best bacon market since 1939 and I trust we shall re- new our agreement with the Old Country when the present contract terminates next January." Mr. McCubben stated that Can. ada could even afford to oblain lower prices than the $36.10 per shipboard hundredweight now paid by the United Kingdom for Cana- dian bacon. "Even if it should be |at a figurg around $32 we should renew our agreement," he asserted.

He stressed that it would Sixteen-months-old George Dair believes in loo! in the eye. This healthy lad is the son of Mr. and Cedar Street, Whitby. ? Photogenic ald residents of rural communities in the future. "I hope that the time will soon come when this scheme will aid a country practi- tioner--perhaps to install a small clinic or ward adjoining his prem- ises with perhaps four or five beds." "The cities are able to provide the most upcto=date facilities for hospitalization but this is not al- ways so easy in the country." Turning briefly to local issues, he urged support of Liberal Candidate Lyman A. Gifford in the June 8th federal by-election. Referring to Mr, Gifford's long experience as a farmer, he pointed out that "there | {are too Tew farmers in the House | of Commons today." Thomson Hits Drew Walter Thcmpson, KC., prominent lawyer and Pickering township farmer, told the meeting that Can- ada had made its greatest strides under Liberalism. He attacked Premier Drew whom he termed "a dictator full of overwhelming con- ceit" and asserted that "Ontario is through with Drew." He charged that Premier Drew had entered into an alliance wiih Premier Maurice Duplessis of Que- bec and that "Duplessis can run rings around Drew when it comes to political trickery. It was Du- plessis who influenced Hepburn against Mr. King." - Premier Drew had called the the samers straight ~--Photo by Marjorie G. Ruddy Douglas Dair, 151 | Rotary Speaker E. A.
