CONFERENCE That since the question 0 w nutrition is of the first inipiartt'i‘iilcled members of the A.C.W.\\’. are urged to study the recommendations of the F.A.O. including the establishing of the World Food Board. Further, they should give practical help by raising the standard of food produc- tion and nutrition in their own coun» tries. That the International Food Board remain in operation until another ?rganization takes over and that the Influence of women of all nations be used to ensure that there be fair allocation of food and materials until such tune as the food position of the \vorldus back to normal. Be it resolved that the Associated Countryy Women of the World support the principles underlying the estab~ lishrnenl of the program of the United Nations. \vith particular reference to helping. rural peo 1e to understand the organization zinilJ the rogrzim of the United Nations and the Specinh izeil Algencies. Be it further resolved that the As- sociated Country Women of the World urge each Constituent Society to use any further practical steps to help make the program of the United Nations and the Specialized Agencies function in rural areas. That in order to stimulate mutual understanding and foster the growth of real peace among the nations of the world it is essential that the establishment should no longer be postponed of an agreed common [on- E11329. The Conference views with concern the lack of consideration and cour- tesy in the life of to-ilziy, and urges that every effort be made in the homes and in the schools to instil in the rising genera'inn the true meaning of citizenship which is that of Service to the Community and State. Moral teaching uninspired by Spiritual \an- ues will never equip the individual with the necessary understanding and driving power for good that nlonc can help us tn solve the problems confronting humanity to-day. That all women give rm 9. implu of a natural and simple way of life and thereby stimulate both the individual and the family to return lu good common sense principles, which in~ clui‘e the love of work and of pro» ductinn and a legitimate pride in a well ordered home. That women accept the responsi- bilities of their position and by their example inculcate the love of home and family. That all women's societies realize the urgent necessity of spreading the knowledge of good housekecping and better airriculture. I That the A.C.W.W. is of the opinion that war should not be considered as a possible solution of difi‘ercnces and that the members~ of the AiC.W.\\’, all over the world. by thinking and acting peace, could make a valuable contribution towards bringing about this end. action \iilhnut study is fatal. One of the greatest curses of our time is that we disassuciiitc moral and spiritual values from our economic problems. Surely we have learned during these war yenrs that wheat is more than carnal fodder and that when our neighbour is hungry it is our proh- leni. “There is no savnur like bread shared with a neighbour.” "Cast thv bread upon the water and it shall return after many ll' This still is the measure by which \vc meet. 6. We must have faith in ourselves. and our organization and always remember that there is ‘no men or woman made problem which we can< t solve.

Graham, Deputy Minister of Agriculture was guest speaker at Barrie and Belleville conventions. We publish below excerpts from his address: The word "agriculture" is a com- prehensive term. Agriculture is the science. art and practice of cultivating the soil. the produclion of live stock and field crops. The most basic and fundamental need of the humnn race is the nch of food. Down from primitive times it has been shown that man can 0. st with certain types of shelter rind clothes. Modern days have brought modern conveniences unil luxu es in home conditions and great \‘uriiitions in styles and types of clothing but those are not fundamentzil require- ments for the maintenance of life, Food. however. is an absolute iie sitr. Without it man could not exist. Thus it is apparent tliiit ilic agricultural industry is the foundaâ€" tion of ti sound economy in any Country. Today in the aileriiiiith of n great war. that is more apparent thiin over before. In those countries which new overrun by \vnr, auricul- ture has been duslrol‘el‘l and millions of people are pour the border-lino of starvation because their forms nrc not producing. It is cspccinlly significant that soil conservation and Innd use are lining emphasized as a major phase of the agricultural pro rnin lnday. The con- : i-vntimi of soi and water resources is one of the most important problems before the world today. Not only nlll‘ food and clothes but iilso the [wave of the world and thc \vell’nre nl nations depend on maintaining an adequate productive sail. ’I‘h is the foundation upon which indii' ' liiisiA ricss, agriculture and the stiiinlni'il of living which we cnjoy toilny nn- built.
