OTTAWA (€P) — The federal government will announce
‘Tuesaday in Winnipeg its plana for raising Prairie grain :
freight rates, aspokesman for Transport Minister Jean-Luc --

ral raipiuters will,fan put accosa the onumbry. that day

; telling regional audiences how they will benefit from. the

main announcement to be made in- Winnlpeg by Pepin,
spokesman Geoff Seaborn said.

----The-long-awalted announcement - on- how. Ottawa’ will

spend $3.6 billion over four years on raising the &@-year-old
Crowsnest Pass freight rates is an attempt to draw a
compromise between- badly divided, factions i in the weést,.
while also appeasing Quebec farm groups’ who fear the.
changes will increase competition for their livestock

producers, -

The program is supposed to prompt the railways to spend
$17 billion in the next decade, to iniprove their western

operations.”

The railways say. the: Crow rate — which’ now covers
about one-fifth of the actual cost: of hauling grain from
country elevators to Thunder Bay or West Coast ports. —~ is
causing financial losses that block the desired. expansion of
their western networks..

Pepin is. expected to announce.a 50-80 sharing | between

railways and farmers of ‘$600 millionn, federal subsidies, a
majorreview of the whole Crow change program In 1985-868,
a faster-than-expected rise in grain freight rates, a. paring
down of the $700-million railway branchiine- rehabliltation

_ program, and protection for Quebec. farmers who. fear’
_ Stronger conipetition from’ western livestock producers.

“There will also be compensation to the railways for part ~

' of the #40 million they lost hauling grain In 1982, increased

money for agricultural research in the west, and a limit of
31.4 million tonnes of grain that will be eliglble for shipment
at rates below the actual shipping costs.

Statistics high

CALGARY (CP) — The fat-in-meat statistics used by.
health professionals to warn Canadians about the amount of
fat in their diets may. be 30-to' 50-per-cent too -high, says.a
study being conducted. by a University’ of Guelph, meat
scientist. -

-’ Stephen ‘Jones said statistics currently being wed a are 30
" yearsold and based on U.S, studies of American heef which.

is generally considered fatter than the Canadian -variety.
Even the Americans have recently decided: to reanalyse
- thelr fat statistics, he Said; °°). :

. Although - Jones’s research ‘is restricted to beet: ‘he's
willing to theorize that other red meats like pork ‘will also
show lower fat percentages. Obesity and heart disease are
among. the results of high-fat diets.

2 Patin-pork statistics are. inflated - because. ‘previous
Studies included the strip of fat around 'a lean. cut which
consumers may be trimming off before the meat is cooked,
Jones said, .

"He also’ draws ‘attention to the different ways: fat is
deposited in pigs and cattle. Most of the fat on a pig ia -

- larded on its backside while beet fat is marbled throughout
its muscle. -

- Jones (g more interested in the fat levels of" lower-graie

_meat and how different degrees of leanness affect meat’s
palatability. Perhaps beef grading..can -be adjusted...
. downward, thereby improving the dietary fat levels even
more, he sald. _ ,
Hog-grading standards were adjusted in 1969 with the goal
of encouraging farmers to raise leaner animals, =

. Producera were pleased with the change because a fat

porker costs more to: feed than a lean one.” .
