May Broaden Manitoba Marriage Act
Manitoba may broaden its marriage act to allow justices of the peace or magistrates to perform civil marriages. Attorney General Stewart McLean noted no Anglican Synod petition yet but will consider it upon receipt.

Invested Capital Drives Manitoba Farm Net Income in 1964
A Manitoba study shows net income in 1964 hinged more on capital invested than soil quality. Analyzing farm books by soil productivity and investment, researchers found higher investment boosted farm size, livestock, and equipment costs, with varied income impacts across soil classes. Current living costs averaged 3033 dollars, with a range from 1854 to 4436 dollars. A fuller report will be released in fall.

Hot grain claim disputed by Vancouver grain workers union
Louis Driscoll, general manager of United Grain Growers, calls the term hot grain misleading. He says only Alberta Wheat Pool terminal grain near the Vancouver terminal is affected by a strike, while all cars at the UGG terminal come from holding yards or country elevators. The blockade by Alberta Wheat Pool dumper operators has left the terminal nearly empty and may force a temporary shutdown.

Reduced Bag A Shorter Duck Season is Possible
Manitoba wildlife director G A Malaher says hunters may face a shorter season and lower limit this year. He spoke at the Manitoba Federation of Game and Fish Associations meeting about weak duck populations despite good water conditions. Evaluation before mid July could sharpen outlook, with ward noting below optimum production in the Mississippi flyway and declines in Saskatchewan and Alberta. Drainage potholes in Manitoba erode habitat at about two percent yearly, and Ward urges a tax base adjustment to protect water areas noting most game is produced on private land.
