Scoring the “Hate Russia war

mongers, Mandel siaied with
firm conviction that the Soviet
peoples fear and distrust of Bri-
tain and the -USA arises ont of

the failures’ of Truman and Att
lee to live up to promises made
during the war and subscribed to
in the Yalta Agreement. He cited
as examples, the failure to with-
draw British and American treops
from Greece and China: the
inanufacture cf the atomic bombs
and the building of new war bases
‘close to the Soviet Union: also
the policy being followed by the
USA in issuing loans on a politi-
cal basis instead of to those who
are really in need and the using
of food as a political weapon—
pointing out that Britain and the
US. have shipped more food to
Germany and Japan than all the
other allied countries combined.

Concerning: Soviet
Eastern Europe, he stated that,
“the government is dividing up
the landed estates among the pea-
Sants, and countries like Hung
ary. Romania and Bulgaria are
enjoying more demotracy than
ever before.”

Effectively dispelling Winston
Churchill’s ill conceived myth
that “an iron curtain exists bar-
ring Russia from the outside
world,’ Mandel emphasized that
while in the Soviet Union ‘the
gevernment permitted me to tra-
vel and learn whatever I wanted,
it was just like taking a trip
back in the USA.”

He said that it is “Russian de-
Sire to build 2 good peace and
have security and freedom from
fear and aggression so that she
might rebuild her devastated

The Soviet nation, he stated, is

‘Consider nation’s health’ states
Island conference on milk prices

_ in response to a call issued by the IWA Ladies Auxiliary to discuss the milk ques-
tion, a conference was held on Thursday, November 28th, [

Farmers organizations, Trade
Aldermen Sid Williams and €
behalf of the TWA Ladies, Aux
iliary, introduced the Subject for
discussion - with the following

“The sharp rise in the price of
milk represents a serious threat
te the health of the Ganadian
families. During the war Ga-
Nadians made 4 Sad discovery
that we are a ‘GC’ nation in heaith,

men
‘owing

rejected from the services’
to various deficiencies in
health. It was because of this
alarming health Situation, the
strong advice from medical auth-
orities and nutrition experts, that
Our government wisely adopted a
policy to build the health and
strength of the nation, through
an increased consumption of mill,
stimulated by a cut in the price
of mill to the consumer through
a government subsidy to the far-—
m€r and distributor. The result
of this cerrect government policy.
Was an increase of 50 percent in
the consumption of milk during
the war years. Even with this in-

crease, government nutrition ex-
perts estimated, that Canada con-
Sumed 35 percent less milk re-
quired according to accepted

health standards.

has brought a sharp rise in the
price of milk to the consumer,
resulting immediately in reduc-
tion in the consumption of milk
by 10 percent, although our
population has increased con-
Siderably.

According to figures for Canada.
presented by the Research De—
partment of the Toronto Welfare
Board, an average earner of a
family of five, earning an aver-
age of $36.40 per week annually,
could only afford to spend $2.00
ber week on milk, which is only
half the amount required accord-
ing to the accepted health stan-
dards. With 85 percent of the
Canadian wage eéarners earning
much less than $3640 per week,
the picture insofar as the con-
sumption of milk does not look
bright:

Milk is not just ancther com-
modity. It is health maintain-
ing and health building. It has
protein for building wmuscles,,
calcium and lime for bones and
teeth, it has phesphorus and
other minerals, if has building,
regulating and energy-yielding
properties, and it has in it
some of all vitamins now known

appear, that the farmer is not af-
fected by the removal of the gov-
ernment’s subsidies on milk, the
fact remains that the farmer too
stands to suffer from it. Only
inerease. in the price of milk to
the consumer, means a reduction
in the consumption of milk, re-
duction in the sale of milk, con-
sequently in a reduction in the
farmer’s income. The farmer, re-
ceiving only 27¢ per gallon of
milk, finds his returns too small
when buying feed and things ne-
cessary for raising and up-keep
of the dairy herd. The spread be-
tween the price the farmer receiv-
ed for milk and the price the con-
sumer pays is far too excessive.

An examination of a financial
statement issued by the Borden’s
Milk Distributing Co. for the
year 1945, shows, that during that
year this company, after paying
all taxes, excess profit tax in-
cluding, spending two million dol-

|adopted. The

Jars on equipment, has made 2
proht of over twelve million dol-
lars. Therein lies the answer why
the farmer gets too little and
the consumer pays too much.
There are many important angles
in the milk question, the most
important angle being milk and
the health of oui nation. It is up
to every individual and every
organization to take a stand for
the health and well-being of our
nation.”

A lengthy resolution proposing
a representative commission of
producers, consumer distributors
and trade unions te investigate
the milk issue was unaninioushly

the need of the retention of the
milk subsidy to producers, the
abolition of the one-man milk
