WEDNBDAY. Report Butter Surplus is Biggest In History (By Harold Morrison. Canadian Press Staff Writer) 0'!'rAWA, ICP)-"The govern- ment likely will enter the new butter production year next May with the biggest unsold butter stockpile in price-support history. The surplus at the end of the current butter year April 30 may range between 3t).OO0.000 and 1&5.- 0)0.0(i0 pounds. biggest since the government's price-support pro- gram started in 1948. federal authorities estimated Monday. The previous high was 20.000.- 000 pounds in 1949. l.ast year it was l9.000.000. During 195.1 Can- ada's creamery butter production soared to .'i0.'i.ti0fl.(i00 pounds. sec- ond only to the all-time of 312,- 000,000 in 1943. Predict New Post And while federal experts are pondering the problems of the anticipated peak surplus, indica- tiona are that production in 1954 may rise even above the 1953 level. adding to the governments disposal problems. Dairy industry spokesmen esti- mated butter stocks on May 1- lacluding that held by the gov- ernment and the trade-will be about 4-6.900.000 pounds. Produc- tion in l954 is expected to soar to a new high of .'i23,000.000. This, they anticipate, will make 310,000.00!) pounds available for Canadian consumers. But actually the market will take only 278,600.- W0, pushing the unsold surplus on May 1, 1955, to a new high of 91,400,000 pounds. The feeling among dairy farm- ers and the trade is that the gov- ernment either must take some action tn dispose of the surplus on foreign markets-and these rrarketl already are crowded and prices down-or move to curtail the Canadian market for margar- ine. The dairy trade favors the latter move. Con-iumptiorn Down The trade estimates butter non- aiimption in Canada, though gradually picking up. is still down over the long-term period. Creamery butter consumption to- talled &.0CI().0fl0 pounds in 195.1, down 20,000.000 from 306,000,000 in 1948. though up from 277,000,000 in 1950. Meanwhile, margarine produc- tion is running ahnui. 106,000,000 pounds a year. Since margarine sells for about 20 rents a pound loss than butter. farmers are con- cerned that the market for mar- garine may increase as unpmplny. menl grovis and housewives search for lower-priced foods. The dairy industry has called for an excise tax or some other gnvernmrnt mrtlirid to boost. the margarine prim and tiring :t rloser in line with huttm-.

Jr. Associated Prom News Analyst There's a good bit of difference between the new United States military aid arrangements with Japan and the proposals to bring Germany into the Western defence setup. The various treaties now before European parliaments would incor- porate German strength directly into Western arrangements Tor meeting any war that develops. where the European Army goes, Germany would go. For Japan, on the other hand, the present arrangement is merely for an increase of some 10,000 men in her internal security force which now numbers 120,000. It does not require her to send troops abroad in any contingency. or even to have them already for incorpora- tion in any Allied force which might be formed in an emergency. It is important as a first small step to permit withdrawal of allied forces from Japanvmeaning pri- marily United States forces-and that is a long time off. For true incorporation of Japan into the free world defence lineup it. would be necessary to revise her constitution which, since the war. forbids organization of a real all-purpose army. Foreign observ- ers are convinced this would be an extremely difficult process. Women Opposed Japan's women, especially. with their newly-won free participation in political affairs. are reported determined that their Ihusbands and sons shall not be again subject to draft. if the United States at- tempts to influence a constitutional revision. she will be met by the argument that she herself, only a few years ago. was largely respon- sible for the ban on reorganizing the army. The Japanese are not as anxious as are the Germans to clear their country of occupation troops. The new agreement. still to be. approved by the Japanese Diet. follows the pattern of mutual as- sistance arrangeme its the U.S. has made with other nations. Japan! agrees to defend herself as far aa' possible with the presumption tiiati she will progress toward assump-) tion of the whole Job. That would; leave the United States with Oki-y navra as its chief ii-holly controlled; military base in the Far East, and. it is primarily a strategic air; centre. The big island was rap-I turerl from Japan during the war! and the United States has made it: clear she intends to keep it as' long as it disturbed world situa-t tion requires it.
