Assumption is tha socialists that the More business and Enterprise can be brought under state control the really you should know better than nowhere in the pronouncements of the British labor or the International socialist is there any indication that state ownership of All business and Industry is but what is extremely desirable when the economics of West Ern nations must be extended to the limit to raise the standards of their own people and to give assistance to the undeveloped a is that the directionless economic anarchy of competitive and the dictatorship of private monopoly should be hanged to economies in which there is some and some sense of we can no Onger afford to flounder around Ike a ship without Compass or the Only Way in which this guidance can be is by Public ownership essential industries and such As electric or other motive to say that this cannot be done without loss of and with in a democratic Corn need be lost As a result of owne ship by the people major in is the Freedom of the Barons of Industry and play ducks and Drakes with the lives of the to suit own particular your faulty conclusion far from solving economic problems socialism makes them

Ial farm prices sir in a recent Issue of your valuable paper i noticed an Edi orial regarding prices and As an old Reader of your paper know your preoccupation with wheat in the closing Para graph you refer to the losses which armers have sustained during the ast six i would like to Ven ure the opinion that the Farmers do not feel these losses nearly As much As you seem to i dont want to get into n argument about this because in s As Broad As it is and Over and done the losses Are at est on paper and purely imagine there Are at present losses to he Farmers which Are most pain Ful and very i am referring to the losses producers take on eggs and on for example at present a Large eggs Are Worth with a dozen eggs grading usually 8 eggs a some a medium and lower grades a pro Ducer averages about 27c a dozen at present which is 24c an a producer keeping 100 hens and averaging 50 eggs a Day earns i while the same 100 hens con sume approximately 50 of feed a which at an average Cost of 3c a costs him a this s exclusive of his his lights which he has to turn on his his you might say on 100 hens a Man loses a Day by keeping them under above now let us look at hog prices Tor september of 1952 the margin was 51165 per for october it was for november it was first week in first week in it was a above figures except the Las one i gleaned from the Canadian Grain this is what a Farmer or a sea Miller who is in the pig business Liki will receive for months of feeding a pig three time a looking after worry ing Over doctoring be worming breaking out their Slack injecting them of and Doire i few More malodorous jobs tha the hired Man would not consider at returns for a hog which the producer has kept for is months he earns exactly a a or at least an hours work a a for half a these losses Are real and they Are the reason Why the hog Husi Ness has such great ups and Down and the same applies to the egg when eggs Are High everybody is in when they go Down a lot of people drop As a result eggs go too High again too Many come Back in again Etc Peter frien Rutherford Heads air Force legion Rutherford was elected presi Lent of the air Force Branch o he Canadian legion 156 help n
