He was referring to an. an- nouncement by the federal Cana- dian Egg Marketing Agency that another 13 million eggs. will have to be buried by December. That will bring the total number of destroyed eggs to about 28 million. He accused Mr. Whelan of demonstrating “mismanagement, misinformation and unconcern” in regard to the egg situation. United States President Gerald Ford has issued what amounts .to a naked threat to any country whose govern- ment does not suit the U.S. administra- tion and its Central Intelligence Agen- cy. There. was a specific reference to Canada. In a news conference Sept. 16, Ford acknowledged that it is U.S. policy to decide unilaterally what is good for people of other countries and to inter- vene to destroy the economy, the gov- ernment and democracy if it suits U.S. aims, as it did in Chile.

The real outcome of such policy will be a cut- ack in consumption particularly by low income families; and still higher profits for the grain and monopoly which robs consumer and farmer The same bankrupt poli llows monopoly price ; pt policy allo n i fixing machinery to be steamed up to raise the price of bread and other grain products the moment the u drops of early Fall rain descend upon the The same to sy-turvy policy incites the state- owned (CBC) adie and TV to foster, day in and tion is “world-wide”. This is sheer deception — mis- leading advertising. Inflation is only capitalist world- wide. There is no inflation in the socialist world. Government policy which puts people last has now ‘produced stagflation. Namely, a no growth situation in the economy coupled with inflation. In practical terms what the people have got out of this policy is inflation now running at 14.5% annually, real wages declining at an annual rate of 5.6% and an unem- ployment rate of better than 6%. On the other hand monopoly profit-taking is increasing at an annual rate of 28%. BS aie 2 This outrageous government policy is a “big business first” policy. It is whole-heartedly sup- ported by the Liberals and Conservatives alike. And, unfortunately, in a growing number of in- stances by NDP provincial governments. Continued on page 10 = of millions of U.S. dollars to wreck Chile’s economy, paving the way for the murder of President and the overthrow of his elected gov- ernment, Ford said brazenly that this was justified because the U.S. adminis- tration had decided that it was “in the best interests of the people of Chile and certainly in our best interests.” ~ Asked by a reporter how this differed from subversion in a country like Can- ada, the president replied that any U.S. activities are for the good of the coun- tries concerned. Presumably Canadians ‘would be treated to the same subver- sion, economic sabotage, arming : of fascists, and the same im-. prisonment, torture and summary i alvador Allende executions as the Chileans, should we elect a government - inimical to the interests of U.S.- 4 run multi-national corporaitons. The _ president’s fusilade, which brought unbelieving gasps from correspondents, was much in line with remarks attributed | to Henry Kissinger who, as: chairman of the 40 Commission ; which authorized the CIA’s $11- | million rampage in Chile. Kissin- ger said at the time: “I don’t see why we need to stand by and watch a country go Communist due to the irrespon- sibility of its own people.” Go- ing Communist could mean al- most anything to the rabid im- perialists in Washington. For four years the U.S. gov- ernment and the CIA have lied about their key role in establish- ing fascism in Chile. The chill- ing new threat by Ford that “such actions” are “a recogniz- ed fact” .. . “in the best inter- ests of the countries involved,” demands sober examination, with urgent steps to reduce the al- ready smothering U.S. control of \enb rina nonsense that nothing can be done to When it comes to inflation, prices, interest rates, ®D criminal price-fixing by monopoly because infla- 0) Canadian life.
