Mr. GILLIS:
I think the question is rather silly. The farmer in this country is not an exploiter. He is being exploited. The major portion of the income that the farmer should be receiving today is taken by Canada Packers and the Swift Canadian people. They fix the price, they tell him what he is to get, and they take his commodity and market it without restriction.
