History ln The Making L- a.__ I

The first of a series of booklets entitled “The War" has been published by the Oxford United Press, Canadian branch, Toronto. It covers the back- ground and origin of the present struggle in Europe, specifically the period between Hitler's access to power in Germany in January, r933, and the Nazi invasion of Poland which brought Britain and France into the war. The publication is sponsored by the Canadian In- stitute of llllkfllfllillllill Affairs. The author, Mr. Edgar llclnnis, Professor of History at the University of Toronto, is a native of Char- lottetown, and served with the 8th Siege Bat- tery in the lust \\’:lr. Mr. Mclnnis handles his difficult subject in masterly fashion and pre- sents a vt-ry ro-idnblc, as well as authentic, out- line which will he continued periodically dur- ing the conflict Not the lczist valuable part of the work is lhc tllil‘lllll(‘lll.'ll'_\' appendix with its extracts from ll'<‘.'lli(‘<, speeches, comniuniqiics and offiriil snurrr-s of all kinds.

The Liberal-Conservative party had ss its basis the National Policy, and Sir john A.

The Liberal-Conservative party was the party of Pf0g_r€§5—th¢ Canadian party—the party of patriotism.

While in the I917 wartime elec- tion soldiers wcre free to designate the coli- sliturncics to which their ballots ntight be al- lotted, this time both those overseas and those in Canada will vote for the candidates in the riding: in which the stildicrs were resident at the time of enlistment.

No me doubts his personal loyalty, but there have been times 1n his long and cliicuiwils career, when his legislative actions were open t0 grave suspicion.

In 1911, as a mere strlpllng 1n the political arena he fought aq- ainst the proposed building of two drvazlnnughts to supplement the Brll-ish Navy.

BIIAMEFUL ATTACK

sin-What on earth 1s P. E. I. coming to when any person 01‘ party would find fault with Hon. George D. DeBlo1s. and especially with his actions while he held the honorable posh-ion of Lieutenant- Governor?

I as l. citizen of Charlottetown and ln conversation with a mod many citizens know that when the then Governor was spoken of in any way. lt was always ln praise or his deeds and actions. And knowing Mr. DeBlols so well my- self I certainly felt assured that any actions he took were for the ignood of the people and the Prov-

c0.

SOLID LABOR FACTS

sin-In yesterday's Patriot a letter appeared bver the signature of Labor. The writer made sure to time his letter for the eve of an election. so that I would not. have an opportunity to reply 1n the evening paper before election. This ls Just another Liberal ‘trick of cheap politics. I wish to say that I can prove every statmtlent I made at the Conservative meet- ing in the Sporting Club. Why the writer tries to bring Organizcd labor lrito the controversy 1s nlore than I can understand. I want him to know that I am not censored by organized labor. I have the privilege of expressing what I know on any public platform 0r through the columns of the Ploss.

One very remarkable fact is that the Liberals had no laborers, or- gsmized or otherwise to speak pub- licly ln their behalf.

I can bell the writer that the Uberals did not by any means carry out their projects to the satisfaction of any kind of labor. On the Victoria. Park PHocct s. large number of men were ‘ignor- ed and did not get. one hour's work. They had one stool pigeon who tried to and partly controlled the hiring of the men. Political interference was used the siune as on the airport. Scab wages ivere paid on Dominion contract jobs in this City.

Thebnly mjecl: under the Con- servatives at. paid less than 35 cents per hour was the Exhibition projec. which was an emergency employment. job, late 1n the fall, and the grant. was made with the assurance that not one cent of the $25000 expenditure would go for any purpose but labor. Labor rep- resentatives were called 1n and advised of this fact. alncl they agreed to the condltlon before the project started.

Thé Conﬁcfvatlves never brought politics into their unemployment projects. I have always stood solid behind the worklngmen o! this city 1n all their labor troubles. 1 will let the worklngmen Jildge for themselves who has Spoken the most. 1n their behalf. The Con- servatives both local and Federal Wm always solid behind the labor mdvelment.
