Statements By Party Candidates 1

in a statement to the press last night Mr. J. Angus MacLean, Pm. gressive Conservative victor in yesterday's Federal by-election in Queen's, said he regarded the outcome as a double victory - not only for himself and party, but. in the interests of clean elec. tioneering generally. He con. Ehatulated his opponent, Mr. Mill- er, on running his campaign per- sonally on a high plane.

He expressed his thanks to all who worked on his behalf, especi- ally Mr. Nowlan, M.P., I-Ion, Mr. Drew. Mr. McLure, M.P., and Mr. R. R. Bell; also all the

YWHE P60- ple. who had backed him with their first votes. He regretted

that some of those who had sup- ported him in his two previous campaigns were not now able to share his victory. He also express. ed flppreciation of the manner in which the campaign wag handled by the press and radio.

Mr. MacLe.-in was particularly pleased with the strong support he received in his own Belfast dis- trict.

He added that he felt especial- ly responsible to those who did not vote for him and that his en- deavour would be to represent an the people Of Queen's County to the best of his ability.

M11. MILLIIIVS STATEMENT

"The public have spoken and I am satisfied with the result," Mr. Cecil Miller, defeated Liberal candidate, stated to I Guardian represenltative last night. "I wish to can-grs-tulate my opponent on a splendid victory. I have no alibls to offer. .

"It is evident from the results that the people of Queen's prefer a Conservative representative to 1 Liberal at this time. That was apparent not only in the city but in the rural sections as well. They exercised their inalienable right, and it is a matter of gratifica- tion that they turned out to vote in such large numbers. -
