      the farmers, and true farmers behind barleyvote.ca need any help or informating choice producers can give them too. The CWB, no doubt, will be funneling our pool accout monies to the pro CWB side some how! Need to control them doing that, and get the vote out, and get barley the freedom it deserves!!

        Wheat was no longer a free article of commerce, but was subject to the policies decided upon by the wheat committee of the Canadian Cabinet, the really effective body in determining the course followed by the Wheat Board.

        QUOTE
        It should be noted, however, that while the Government's measures were directed towards giving the wheat producers basic protection, the general wartime controls instituted to keep prices down applied more severely to wheat than any other commodity.
