By his devotion to public duty
in various fields, “Syd” Smith
has made a host of friends and
admirers, not only in his adopt-
ed province but throughout
western Canada.

Mr. Smith's lifetime oceupa-
tion has been that of automobile
dealer but his sideline activi-
ties have been largely in the
realms of farming and ranching.
His lifetime hobby can quite
probably be said to be politics
He has been interested and ac-
tive in the Liberal party since
before he had a vote, and his
party has entrusted him with
many important assignments.
He is an ex-MLA for the Kam-
|loops constituency, 1949-52, and
since 1953 has been president of
the British Columbia Liberal As-
sociation.

‘Ask Exemption
From Raise
in Freight Rates

Following the announcement
that the Board of Transport
Commissioners had authorized
the railways to boost freight
rates by a further four percent,
effective January 1, in addition
to the seven percent increase
granted last July, the B.C. Fed-
eration of Agriculture has sent
a telegram to the Hon. James
G. Gardiner, federal minister 97
Agriculture, strongly supporting
the provincial government's re-
quest that fruit, vegetables,
livestock and grain for domestic
use be exempted from such jn-
creases,

The federation stated that
C. farmers’ net income in 1955
as 29 percent less than it was
in 1951, whereas the average
salary and wage forall other
segments of the population in-
creased 19 percent in the same
period. The farmer therefore
finds himself in a “squeeze” be-
tween the ever-increasing coste
of the goods and service he has

for his agricultural produce.

Net farm income is at a dan-
gerously low level and this tur-
ther burden in the shape of in-
creased freight rates constitutes
a most serious threat to the ag-
ricultural producer in British
Columbia, the federation pointed
