The essence of the agreement witii West. Germany is to accord to the Bonn Gov-1 ernmcnt full sovereign rights in all do-, mestie and foreign affairs except in ccrtaini circumstances such as an "emergency sit- uation" giving the Allies the right to "in-' tervene". and reserving to them discretion- ary powcrs respecting the future of Berlin and plans for the unification of East and West Germany. This agreement. says Dr. Adenauer. is ”a historical event which has; brought Western Germany forever into the: western camp."

The German Chancellor's rhetoric needs to be tempered by realism on at least three counts before the agreement may be pro- perly evaluated. The first is his own pol- itioal position, already weakened by the dc- fcction of his Christian Democratic sup- portcrs, many of whom have been lured away by the intensely nationalistic Social- ist party of Dr. Kurt Schufnacher. The second is the French attitude, which finds expression in the phrase "You cant trust the Germans”. and relates to French fears of a restoration- on whatever terms, of Germany's military might. The third is the dazzling prospect of the unification of Germany. thc propaganda value of which is constantly being exploited to the full by the Soviet. Union. '

Now all the agricultural authorities at Ottawa are evidently of one mind that the

,farmers are on the threshold of a most iprospcrous period in Canada's history, due

largely to industrial development of our re- sources. A beginning has been made in Toronto by an increase of 2c on milk to

the consumer.

Mr. Leo Mclsaac in his intensely inter- csting contributions to our columns, essays to draft a workable plan for the division of the province, into balanced areas for all practical purposes. His scheme, outlined in yesterday's issue, is deserving of careful and widespread consideration- for it is the first well-thought-out proposition that has been presented to the public.

FISDERATION OF "with twenty-six "Federation Dis- tricts". the Provincial Fql.-ration would be on 2. more workable basis. There would be more scope for leaclershlp'and room for a fuller local program. A trained secretary with the necessary office facilities, could really do an ef- fective job for the Federation members and also do the secretar- ial work for several of the other community organizations.

This local unit of the Federa- tion of Agriculture could, in some cases, co-operntlvely operate an illustration farm with a machinery pool from which all the larger and more expensive machinery could be hired. complete with operators. by the members for their heavy work. Grass-drying and seed- cleaning equipment could be made available to all, if the members worked together and set up such a. plant for, themselves. Each District Federation could also arrange the cattle breeding.

By this urns gemenf a definite policy of livestock improvement. could be effected And a full pro- gram for every season of the year arranged in advance. warble fly campaigns and other necessary and social activities such u.,farm forums. dlscussl groups. plough- ing matches and many other com- munlty ventures could be organiz- ed. In addition to these local ac- tivities. the Federation branch would be alive and active, and would keep the provincial and national organizations informed and busy. The ”Fedei-aflon Dis- trict." would be an area large en- ough to attract. and develop quali- fied and interested leaders: it could keep in closer touch with the Provincial office and would bring more people together to dis- cuss pressing farm problems. It would not be necessary to continue with county organizations.

Membership fees in the Federa- tion should be raised to twelve dollars per year, so that additional and necessary services could be provided for Federation members. This would not include any addi- tional fees for the Provincial office but would be for the. purpose of making services and privileges available to loyal supporters. It could be broken down as follows:

"Blanket accident insurance pol- icy" (providing a stone accident. coverage for Federation members) -85.00.

Subscription to a Maritime week- ly newspaper (whlc'h should cover the problems and activities of Farm, Labor and co-operative groups)-82.00.

For incidental local expenses of postage, travelling, etc.-31.00

Commission of local secretary for collecting membership fees, etc.- 50c.

Amount set aside (approximately 25 cents per member) to cover ex- penses of National and Interna- tional meetings and conventions- 25c.

Provincial Federation member- slilp fee-33.00.

To be set: aside as a reserve fund each year to take care of special legal expenses, unforseen problems. etc.-25c.

Total-812.00.

If this scale of fees is not de- sirable, it; could be changed to a system based on land ICrCEgC.Wiiil a certain rate per tlllable acre and! a lesser rate per acre on waste land or forest area.

"farmers' meals" at it reasonable rate. have a place to meet. and discuss their problems. keep in touch with latest economic developments. and meet Govern- ment officlals and others for in- tcrviews.

This building could house the bead offices of the Provincial Fed- oration and Junior Farmers; me Marketing Boards. and perhaps the Women's Institutes, and other organizations closely connected with the rural people. This would tend to raise the prestige of our rural organizations and add 3 sn- clal touch to their activities. This "Farmersl house" could also in- clude A meeting room, it Mutin: room. and checking facilities for the membeia.

The services of at least. tun qualified field workers, whose Mirk would be limited to marketing and

economic problems. and matters of special concern to farm youllt. should be procured. These pcople could he plaid partly by the Gov- ernment and partly by the Fede- ration, or. an alternative arrange- ment might be to have two or three persons working part time for the Federation and part iime for the Marketing Boards.
