Hon. W. F. Allan Stewart, Speak- erdn the legislature during the last session, and Liberal candidate for the district, complained that, he did not know one bridge in the dis- 'trict which had been painted dul- ing the four years of Conservative administration. The Lea Govern- ment had been accused of not using Island gravel; but why. he asked, didn't the Conrrvatives use it 111 their time?

"Our policy" he promised “will be to use altogether, where it is practic able Island gravel." He then went on to complain that the Conserva- tive platform “consisted altogether of promises."

having any platform. Our platform consists of our record for the past four years-which we intend to continue", he declared.

, "Dominion policies are not the issue," Mr. Stewart admitted nfter assuring the audience that he did not propose to take up much time in discussing Federal “ rs.

"If we did spend more in capital expenditures we have a good deal more to show for it." he ‘argued enunciating some of the public works built undcr Liberal regime.

“Everybody" he said “has been talk ing about the Guardian's criticism of the Maclntyre highway “He rcfcrr- ed to the photographic reproduc- tions of the cracks and crevices-

"There are a few flaws in it," lle admitted, "but the people appreci- ate lt very much. It is a very good investment."

The $27,000 expended on the Mc- Intyrc highway lust full was too much for the amount of work done, he admitted, but this was because it was done undcr the uilemploy‘ ment grant and the work done this year would not be so expensive.

MR. WALTER MACKENZIE

Congratulating his opponent uDOn "making the best of a hopeless case" Mr. MacKenzie amid enthusi- astic applause scored the Liberal ‘candidates for confining their dis- cussion at previous meetings to road making and federal policies.

Tllcsc were not ihc issues on which the Lea ~Goverllment had solicited the people's support in 1927 he dcclarcd;-and thc audience re- plied with prolonged applause “Why doesn't Mr. Sinclair come out now and soy: keep the Govern mentfs In llnc, as he did nt thc last election campaign?

_ “l think before long every road will be looked after," he declared in thc course of an eulogy on thc Gov- ernment's road policy.

Showing The Guardian's photo- graphic reproductlons of the crack- ed McIntyre highway as an ex- ample of “political propaganda," he was interrupted by a voice from the uudicllce:

“It just. looks like it!" (Applause).

Mr. Sinclair asked his hearers to "drive over that. road and see if you could find as many cracks in it as appears in the Guardian pic- turcs." It was only in two places that those cracks appeared, he add- ed, claiming that “the main paper in the Province" was working against the tourist interests by pub- lishing pictures of that kind.

This year. he declared the Gov- crnmcnt is using “almost all" iocal gravel though this did not apply to the past three years.

The price of the large road ma- chines was saved in their first year of operation, he maintained.

Excusing thc Government's large highway expenditures, Mr. Sinclair asked, was it not a good policy for the Government to spend nloncy when money can be borrowed so

easily? "Those of you who got your cllccks will not say it was squand-

The speech of Mr. Bethune was followed by the audience with keen attention, and made on evid- ent impression. Mr. Jenkins dealt discerningly with the rccord of the Saunders-Lea Government and both speakers were warmly applauded. Mr. McPhce made an effort to ex- plain the financing of the Govern-

Hon. B. W.

The audience was considerably surprised to learn from Mr. LcPagc that not only the new car ferry, but also the Canadian National Hotel, and the standardization of the rail- way were direct results of the Dun- can Commission report. ‘

Mr. Stewart stood by responsible government; hence he stood behind the Prohibition Act, he stated. What had the Prohibition Commis- sion done to enforce the law? What had Hon. Russel Clark done to en- force the law, Mr. Jenkins asked. The Liberals do ‘not wlsb to be too hard on the bootlcggcrs, because the bcoticggcrs were good to tllcln. Mr. Jenkins outlined the various ill- consistencies of the Liberal adluill- istration in relation to prohibiflm enforcement.

In eulogizing the Premier, Mr. Lc- Pnge stated that at the last session of the legislature, without a law- yer, Mr. Lea had put through all his legislation and there had nevcr been one clause added by the Con- servatives. He severely criticized Dr. McMillan stating that the Doc- tor had never clone anything for public health, unless he was lvcll paid for it. l-le criticised the Stew- art cabinet because it had been composed chiefly of legal men.

In discussing the financing of tile Saunders Lea Government Mr. Angus McPhcc had some difficulty in his terms. He attempted to dc- fcnd thc action of the Government in going into debt. He could not sec how the Government could have went less money.

Mr. McPhee claimed that the Conservative policy was a, Liberal policy. It was a "matter of a. little theft.” Although nobody present had scan the use of local gravel it was the practice to use such gravel in other sections of the Province.

If the Conservatives were elected, Mr. lifcPilee‘ hoped that they would carry out the Prohibition Law.

Mr. McPhce, however, did no‘. comply.

Mr. D. F- Bethune dealt with the large amounts of money expended on thc department of public works. Value was not being received for the money expended.
