Then the prices of farm produce had been "petrtred"--frorn going higher-by Government action and by agreement between Canada and Great Britain. "This was done at a time when farm produce prices are 88 per cent. lower than they were in 1926," he declared. On the other hand, Labour has been “legislated" to receive wages on a parity with 1926 levels or better-- and rightly tgo-and hence, the prices of those things which the farm producer must buy have gone proportionately higher in the interim. "In fact, this means that the breach be- tween the coat of vsrious farm operations, snd the price paid for farm produce hes widened to a breadth beyond all economic reason, or even plain horse-sense."
