The Saskatchewan scheme is sim- ilar to one devised by the Mani- toba Farmers' Union after a con- ferenc in Winnipeg of farm and vernment representatives from Ontario. Manitoba, Saskatchewan and Alberta. Delegates decided the only way of returning order to the livestock industry was through marketing boards.

PLAN BEING STUDIED

The Manitoba plan now is being reviewed and revised. MFU offl- clals say it will be presented to the legislature later.

The Saskatchewan government has agreed to sponsor meetings in rural areas to find out if livestock growers are in favor of a market- ing board outlined by representa- tives of the province's farm union. the wheat pool and the Association of Rural Municipalities. After the meetings. the plan will be revised and one "acceptable to the major- ity" drswn up for presentation in a plebiscite if there is a good chance of it being accepted.

RCMP Checking Petty Crime

By DAVE MclNTOSH Canadian Press staff Writer OTTAWA (C13) - Most police forces in the world are concerned

with the mounting crime rate.

The RCMP is no exception. In an attempt to get at the root of the problem, it has launched a campaign to try to prevent petty crime.

Records kept by the Mounties show that car thefts in the last five years have increased by 57.1 per cent; breaking, entering and theft by 37 per cent and cases of false pretances such as forged cheques by 15 per cent.

The RCMP has started distribu- tion of 50,000 booklets entitled ”crimo in your community." They show. by word and picture. how business men. aturekcepers and Ilollselloldcls can help prevent petty crime by making offices and homes more secure.

The 20-page booklets are being distributed through divisions. sub- divisions and detachments of the RCMP in the eight provinces-all except Ontario and Quebec-and some 70 municipalities policed by the force. Most of them will go to storekeepers visited regularly by the Mounties.

The booklet is intended only as the first step in a drive to reduce the incidence of petty crime.

We hope the booklet will help people to exercise some care with their belongings." says assistant commissioner C. W. Harvison, the RCMP: director of operations and criminal investigations.

START OF CAMPAIGN

- "If this is successful we plan to follow it up with more publicity and then set up a branch in the force to concentrate on crime pre- vention.

"Every police force is exploring every possibility of reducing crime. One answer is to get more men. This is another way. We are very hopeful of success because police forces in England have had sur- prising success with their crime prevention campaigns."

Figures hear him out.

The first major effort in crime prevention in England was made in Sussex in 1948. It started with a "mind your bike" campaign and after three months bicycle thefts had dropped 40 per cent and de- tections were up 50 per cent.

The Sussex police force found that. with fewer crimes omrnit- ted, there was more time to in- vestigate crimes which did occur with the result that the percen- tage of convictions increased. The entire campaign cost about 812.

Similar campaigns in England have been equally successful. Cases of breaking and entering shops and homes dropped as much as 26 per cent. After a campaign in Brighton. the number of bur- glaries. house and shop brealdngs and attempted breakins dropped from495inl947tol50in105.In the city of London. the number fell from 1,506 to 1.969 betweqt 1061 and 1058.

Some forces in England now have sat up crime prevention branches.

crime prevention.

on Association said it would oppose the plan until the board's useful- ness in maintaining prices and cutting production costs was dem- onstrated. The Saskatchewan Fed- eration of Agriculture takes the view that any livestock marketing board must be established on a national level.

Also opposing the scheme are the Saskatchewan Stock Growers' As- sociation and the Saskatchewan Shorthorn Club.

Federal Agriculture M i n i s t e r Gardlner termed the scheme ”im- practical."

"It would be impossible to estab- lish an adequate inspection anti grading system to cover consump- tion in the same way the wheat board system covers grain.” he says.

OPPOSES COMPULSION

James Mitchell, president of the Saskatchewan Stock Growers' As- sociation which claims a member- ship of 600 ranchers in southwest- ern ” katchewan, said formers generally wanted no part of a scheme which would compel them to sell livestock to one agency.

F. M. Baker of Winnipeg. west- ern representative on the Council of Canadian Meat Packers, said claims that livestock could be marketed in the same way the wheat board marketed grain was an -"idle comparison" because grain could be stored for years and livestock deteriorated once it left the farmyard. -

Mr. Baker also warned of the dangers in price supports. which backers of the plan ultimately hope to set up. He said floor rices cost the federal government 100,000,000 in the 1952 foot and mouth disease outbreak. If a livestock board w able to set prices higher than those In the United States. the Canadian market could be flooded with American produce.

Farm leaders say the board can be made to work. They maintain it is needed because prices have dropped in the last four years and production costs have increased. l'ARlVIER'S VIEWPOINT

Jacob Schulz. former president of the Manitoba Farmers' Union who helped formulate the Manitoba plan. presents the farmer's view. He describes what is happening

in the livestock business as ”a
