POTATO
PROBLEMS
Other
aspects
of
the
Canadian
farm
economy
were
more
buoyant
with
one
exception,
potatoes.
With
the
United
States
market
for
Canadian
potatoes
cut
by
the
reduction
in
U.S.
prices,
Maritime
growers
appealed
to
the
federal
government
for
price
support.
The
government's
$200,-000.000
agricultural
price
support
program,
made
permanent
by
parliament,
in
1950,
was
'extended
to
butter,
eggs,
cheese,
bacon;
why
could
it
not
be
extended
to
potatoes?
Agriculture
Minister
Gardiner,
at
the
ninth
annual
federal-pro-vincla'
agricultural
conference
lh
December,
told
delegates
the
government
was
prepared
to
consider
price
support
for
potatoes,
if
the
growers
could
get
the'r
"hquse
in
order"
and
Ret
a
welt
organized
group
to
represent
them.
It
appeared
that
finally
some
kind
of
federal
grant
would
be
made
to
the
potato
Industry,
at
the
end
of
the
selling
year
next
spring,
if
the
growers
showed
that
the
price
they
received
for
their
product
was
below
cost
of
Droduction.
