0n Wednesday night a large ga- thering attended the Conservative meeting at Murray River which was addressed by Mr. J.A. Mac- Donald, and Mr. PD. MacArthur of Quebec

The chalnnan. Mr. William Whitewuy. introduced Mr. Mac- Donald who expressed his appre- ciation to those attending. He stat- ed that there were three phases to he considered in the coming elec- tion. leaders. policies and candid- RWB. and went 0n t0 compare the careers of the two party leaders. Mr. St. Laurent, although capable, had entered public life at an ad- vanced age. and consequently lack- ed experience, whereas Mr. Drew had the experience of many years in municipal and provincial polit- im. As Premier of Ontario he had shown his ability which had brought him to the forefront. and showed him to be the logical ma-n as successor to the leadership of the Conservative party.

During the war. he said, the provinces were obliged to give up certain tax fields, and in return were to receive a government sub- sidy. The P.E.I. government which had prepared a minimum budget, were obliged following settlement to return with one million dollars less than the budget called for. The Progressive Conservatives will reconvene the Dominion-Provincial conferences and adjustments will be made. The belated tax reduc- tions of the Abbott budget uvere not great enough, he stated. Ex- emptions of at least $1,200.00 for l. single person, and $500.00 for married persons are on the Con- servative platform. The large gov- ernment surplus of post war years has indicated too heavy taxation. and a reduction of buying power in the hands of the public.

He decried the loss of Canada's foreign markets, the failure of a substantial fisheries program, and the rising unemployment: all of which indicated inefficiency in government. This, he said, was the reason why the government had gone to the people so soon since they felt they had a better chance now. He described the Clil Service as a war bloated monster whose unwarranted members led to over- lapping of work and inefficiency. The Government, he stated. did not have the courage to attack the problem. but the ncccsslly of pair- ing down the numbers was present, and the problem would be attacked by the Conservatives.

Conservative Program

With regard to the Conservative social security program, he ex- pressed their policy of granting old age pensions at 65, and without bhe iniquitous means test. The gov- ernment passed the raise to $40.00 only after being forced to bring it to the top of the agenda by the Conservatives. The short term pol- icy of the Liberals regarding vet- erans affairs’ is quite good, lie stat- that this

Conservative Meeting _ At Murray River Hall

Policy was draw-n up by the various veterans organizations. However. the long term policy definitely lacked a substantial program re- Bﬂhdlnz hospitalization and pen- sions.

With respect to pensions, he said that the pensions had been set up in i925. and that no revision had been made until 1947 despite 60'7" rise in cost of living. Under pres- sure from veterans and public. the government had made a raise of "Om 13% to 16%, and on pressure from the Conservatives had raised it to 26%. whereas the Conserva- tives wanted a 33 14% increase.

Referring to local problems. Mr. MacDonald brought _up the freight rates question stating that the Maritimes were being discriminat- ed against in that the cost of transportation raised the price of Maritime goods so high that they could not compete on the upper Canadian markets. The Conserva- tives. lie said, would give special consideration t0 the Marltlmes on this question. ‘The Conservative government would also support a program for the development of hydro-electric power. and the pro- motion of large scale rural elect- rification. Such a policy would help in the establishing of small indus- tries particularly in P31.

It. wu the view. be said. that the Trans-Canada highway would connect only Borden and Wood Is- lands, and the best Kings County could hope for was a feeder line from Wood Islands to Souris. Without this, Kings County would not benefit from the tourist trade, and that truck haulage to the ferry and other towns would not develop. The Conservatives, he said, would give every considera- tion to the transportation problem of PESL, and would also strive to improve the mail service in Kings County with a morning service. Only the Conservatives, he stated. could give the country strong and vigorous leadership which would serve the people in their best in- tea-sets.

Mr. Maoﬂae, the next speaker. pointed out that the govemment was ruling primarily by orders-in- councll, and a change of govern- ment was required t0 eradicate this. The veterans. he stated, who had settled on land had lost some of their benefits accruing to them from overseas service. a condition hardly fair to those who had given up so much for the country. He also spoke against the rise in freight rates which would raise the costs of feeds, thereby reducing the profit to the farmer. On outgoing produce this increased rate also worked to the detriment of the farmer who had still in accept the

same price for the article thereby losing money. He hoped, he said, a change would bring an erid to these things. and that Canada would go forward under a Conser- vative government. Mr. MacArthur‘! Addreal

Mr. PD. MaoArtftiw. the final speaker, brought to the meetinS first hand information on Can- ada's agricultural problems. During the war, he said. the farmers with less available labour had increased production by 40% in accordance with the long term policy laid down at the Dominion Provincial agri- cultural ‘conferences. He said that sales to Great Britain have fallen off by 50 million dollars by reason of exchange, a problem Whlﬁh U18 Liberals did not attack. He also stated that Mr. Gardiner was aware that the United King- dom buyer was unable to purchase our goods at world prices. but i8- nored the situation. Mr. Drew, he said, stated that an answer must be found for this problem, other- wise we face disaster. for statistics show an enormous slump in Can- ada's export economy, and also said that the Conservatives would fight to regain these markets.

He was pleased that the youth were enterl-nz public life which would give an energetic and vigor- ous impetus to government in Canada. He urged all voters to ex- ercise the right of the franchise. otherwise. as had happened in other countries, the entrance of "isms" would eventually remove the exercise of this free right. Be also urged the support to the 0on- servatlve Party as the only one with the leadership and energy to lead Canada through the next. years.

With regard to the p. " oleomargarine, he stated that vest- ed interests had exerted pressure so as to produce oleo to satisfy the consumer demand, despite the fact. chat dairy producers could suDDly sufficient butter to meet all demands at a competitive price. The government. refusing to face theproblem, referred the matter to the Supreme Court who said that government ban on manufac- ture of oleo in Canada. was illegal. The ‘ , however. was not re- moved from the books. yet the companies went ahead and pro- duced oleo without the government stopping production. The farmers. he stated, have lodged an appeal with the privy council.

Regarding freight rates, he said, the Conseravtlves would encourage a program of developing each part of the country in what it was best suited for, such as livestock in the east. and grain in the west, and then the two would be brought to- gether with a freight rate consid- catlon to the central provinces.

Ho expressed the idea that man today was taxed for his initiative, since those who succeeded were taxed the greatest. thereby not taking into account the assistance required by those who were trying to succeed.

He further stated that the Con- servatives would encourage hydro development, the building of the trans-Canada highway with feeder roads, the solution of transporcg. tion problems. the expansion of
