PIIDVINOIAI. ISSUESF-Wo havo many things to discuss In this clmraln l-hlt are very important to tho electors; matters which por- haps affoct us moro intimately than ovon federal politics; and how can we properly grasp thcso iaauos which are so Important In this campaign and which will ho decided by this election, if wo mix them with purely federal matters? I may say that if thcrc wore timo, and If there worc the proper opportunity. I personally would ho_ delighted to discuss those matters with the Premier or with any other Liberal gentleman; and l do not think that any of us ou this sldo of politics would fear tho rosulti But, as I said boforc, 1t. is not tho time, and it Is not tho place. We want to bo logical. at least.

LEA GOVERNIVIINT FINANCINGPWhat would you think of tho ﬂllllwllll 0! I mill Who hada surplus of $15,000, and yet, at the cud ‘of that year, was found to have gono behind to tho tuno of $235,000? Prodaclns a "Hindus" and at “the ll-ulo timo going in debt r That Is tho situation with respect to tho ﬁnancing of this Govornmcnt last yoar. and they admit it. Their Audit shows that during tho year 1030 thoy went bohlnd to tho extent of $235.000,—aud yet they had a "surplus" of 815.000 I

NE 0F SU$SID~Y~If there Is ouo thing that this Province ls In dire hood of at the proscut time, it is more rovonuo; and. as I said boforo, we cannot afford to place any heavier burdens of taxation upon our pooplo. It is a great struggle, oven in this Province, to exist. Thcro are Just two avenues to further rovcuuo; tho first is increased taxation on our pooplo: tho second is obtaining tho implementation of tho Duncan Commission report. , You know tho early history of that mattsr, that there has always boon a struggle for a. subsidy settlement iicall all tho increase of subsidy that has boon obtained for this Province had been obtained by tho_ Conservative party.

192'! INTEBPDOVIIWOIAI. CONFERENCE-There was their oppor- tunity, whoro thoy had representatives from all the Provinces assem- bled, together with rcpruontativos of tho Canadian G... can-all the parties to tho contract wore there, prepared and ready to do busi- ness. and only waiting for a proposal as to how it should bo done. Yet thcoo gentlemen, going up there at tho expense of this Government- at YOUR/expense. with YOUR. money-hadn't the sense to suggest means of making this adjudication, and so tho matter ended, In "expressions of sympathy"-a.ud "not one dollar of additional subsidy from that day to this.

THE TAX BOOSTEISPWhat has been tho record of tho present F > ‘or with ._ ‘ to taxation? Ho has always claimed that he was the father, tho Instigator of tho Ina Tax Act. He was most indignant at us became wo took off the Poll Tax and made other reductions In étagiion at that time. Has ho over suggested that he would ro- idu-ee tho taxes‘! Has not his whole record pointed in the other direc- tiara-Just like Mr. McIntyre’; who says wo should "broaden out"—wo ‘ shoquld pay more taxes-so that Mr. McIntyre will have more money to spend on tho roads f

ECONOMY NOT PARSIMONYw-‘Al I said boforo, we don't want parsimony; wo don't want pccplo to work for nothing In tho public sorvicos but we do fool that It is a time when expenditure should bo wisely supervised, and that no money should be thrown awayhwhcthor upon the roads or otherwise.

amzmo rmromumda-r was rathor amused, In tho Patriot newspaper's account of tho Liberal meeting at Hunting River, to road that Premier Lea had shown “very clear " how all the planks In their platform of 1927 had been "fully implemented," in fact more than im- plcmtodl Tho Patriot said that tho hall fairly ‘ ’ with applause. The thing that surprises me is that after a statement of that kind tho hall did not fall about their cam. l

CONSERVATIVE TAX REDUCHOPL-Whcn wc took office In 1923 ono of tho planks of our platform was that we would press for further subsidy from tho Fodoral Gov cnt, and upon attaining to that, that wo would glvo tho beneﬁt to tho pooplo In reduction of taxes. We obtained an increased subsidy, and we kept our promise by reduc- ing tho taxes. We are accused-and just think who accuses usl-of doing that for tho punposo of pandering to tho electors on the ove of an election; of cndeavoi... to "buy the people with their own money!’ e e ' The present Government docs not seem to understand what it moans to keep its word to tho pooplo. That is what we dld; we pro- ruiscd that if we obtained a ccrtatilt thing, wo would givo tho

value, that it was simply a stop-gap. a gcsturo on tho part of tho King Government to mark time until tho federal election was over. So they did not attend tho sitting of tho Board. We had representatives from this Provinco in tho _ on of Mir. Lea and another. Did wo got any- thing ‘t I will toll you what happened. It cost this Province a thous- and dollars for their attendance. It is ‘charged up In the Public Ac- counts and to tho taxpayers of this zrovlnce it was not worith one ﬁve-cent plociwas Mr. King might say.

IS HE slNCEltEf-Nciw I want to draw your attention to this. that when Mr. Lea went to Ottawa and presented a claim of $438,000 bcforo tho Audit Board, ho had already published his claim for 83,372,- 10657 in tho Patriot newspaper. In other words. when ho presented his claim in the Patriot to tho pooplo of this Province he claimed over three million dollars, and when ho presented it to the Audit Board It

had shrunk to four ‘ ‘ ‘ thousand dollars. If he cvcr gets before tho Privy Council what will ho claim ‘i -

GRASS STUPIDITL-I have taken up some time with this subloct. Inanondoavcrtcahowyouwhatthopcoploofthishovincooan oxpocttoobtainfromthsoifortscfthlsﬂovcrnmoutbywayofim- plomontailon of our subsidy claims. In the ﬁrst placo, wo have negli- gence; wo havo want of faith; we have lack of knowledge. That Is

add to this,_cran stupidity in the way of presenting them-stupidity to such adogroo that it holds this Province up to tho ridloulo of Could!» than I think you can o...» to a fairly accurate conclusion as to what you may expect from this Govornmont with ‘ to obtaining a sub- sidy scttlomont from tho Dominion cf Canada. '

WASTE LND lxTBAvAGﬂNUEr-WQ [Io not mnﬂgmnlng [ho Govornmont bocauso thoy havo funded tho auto liccnso foes and tho gas taxes; but wo are blaming them because in raising thcso largo sums of money thoy have not supervised the expenditure as they ought; because they have wasted a largo amount of it,—spent extrava- gsntiy tho money that will have to bo paid back, as 1 “is before, with interest. by ourselves or thoso who come sim- us.

ROAD GkAvliLLINGr-In this Province wo have valuable gravel Iltllﬂﬂli-s- equal to tho matcrlal imported by this Government from tho inland, and rhaps better; gravel that can bo dug and hauled to whcro it can be usod by our own popolo and our own people will obtain the wages and remuneration. That will be our pollcy. Thor-o is where wo blame tho G ‘ ‘ _ , having ‘ ‘ thy n they have lot It go completely out of the Province, and the pooplo have not obtalnod any beneﬁt except such as they have received from the gravel- od roads.

STATUTE LABOIL-Wo claim that ovory man in this Province, whatever his politics may bo, has the same right in work upon tho public roads, and our W"?! will bo to sec that every man has the sarno opportunity of commutlllt his wxcs in this manner.

LENS INSINUATION’ CHALLENGER-Mr. Lea has made the statement that some of our pooplo arc going about, canvassing in one ‘ placo on Government Control, and in other places on Prohibition. I say that that statement is not ‘. (Applause), W; hhvg not g room-q of that kind- (Arrlwui. It is , rfcctly true, and 1 admit it, that wo put forward the platf of Government Control at tho last oloctlon; but we did it honestly, and the pooplo having decided against It we are prepared to stand by tho decision of tho pooplo and carry out the law of this Province. And I say no man can assert truthfully that tho Conservative party over took any other attitude with regard to tho laws of the country which thoy wore attempting to govern p111] that any man who would attempt to mako a canvas of that kind is rccrcant to tho party to which hobolongs.

STANDING BSY l-Thoy promised to stand by tho Prohibition Act, and they are still "standing by"l They stood by and saw tho law violat- ed; they stood by and saw more liquor brought into this Province in tho last four years than was eivcr seen or heard of slnco the Prohibition Act was introduced. They stood by andailowcd the poor man to bo taken and ﬁned and committed to iall while the big man, tho party hcoler who was making hundr ’ and thousands of dollars out of tho traffic. went unmolosted. That was the way they “stood by"; that is tho way they enforced tho Prohibition law during tho past four years. And those are tho men who say that we have not been honest and sincere!

PBDVENOIAL POLIOIL-I do not object to s. Provincial Polico force. I think perhaps it is a good ' tltution, and I know thoy have it in other provinces. But It can bo carried to excess. Hero they have a staff costing from. $30,000 to $40,000 a. year. You sco them about, in great numbers, and they are dressed vcry ﬁne, wearing magniﬁcent uniforms; better than tho soldiers‘, perhaps better than the officers‘ uniforms. And it is all at tho expense of you pooplo. That would be all right if It were necessary, but unfortunately this organization has boon _ used for purposes of party politics. They have appointed men who arc simply party heelcrs and who have no qualiﬁ “ whatever, and I say when they are paying men of that stripe as policemen they are throwing away your money and they are holding up this Province In rldlculc to tho whole of Canada.

TEACHERS’ IJVOREASIh-If thcsq gentlemen had. performed their Boundcn duty, If they had pressed our claims at Ottawa and obtained the money they should have obtained, it would not bo necessary t0 , placo any plebiscite on tho election ballot. We would then bo obtain- ing from tho Dominion Government tho money they now Invite you to loavy upon yourselves as a tax to pay tho toachon.

OLD AGE PENSIONS-Pending full payment, the Federal Gov- ornment has passed a statute to provido‘ for ‘l5 pcr cent of tho cost, and It is our intention, if cloclod, to provide the other Z5 pcr cent from money which we beliovo has been wasted by the present Provincial Government In other things. and so cam out this pledge which was made to the people of this Province.

TIME FOR ACTION-Tho time has come when the Go-vcmment of this Province should not be permitted any longer to play hide and cock, and blind man's bluff, with this matter. We should got our claims, wo should have them implemented without any further delay, because for want of that money our public services are suffering, and our people in many cabcs who have to perform public services aro not paid as thoy should bo paid. .

FOUR. YEARS 0F FAILURE-I submit to you that you should elect hichove. party you consider is most likely to succeod in Imple- menting cur subsidy claims. You have had four years of experience with tho present Government. You have had some experience before that. You know what tho Conservative Gove. ent secured from an Opposition Government at Ottawaa-an adverse Gvvva cut, and you know tho record of tho present Government, with its own party In power in tho federal ﬁcld- When this Government took office four

years ago tho door was open for them to deal with tho matter of a subsidy settlement. They had, as I said, a. favorable government In power at Ottawa; and you sec the result. or rather you sco tho failuro of any result.

KEEP THE GOVERNMENTS IN LINK-Mr. Saunders told the Lcgislaturn in 1921 that it was a. good thing to have "a friend at Court." Ho said that when ho was looking for. a change In the Provincial G...“ cnt. Might I bo permitted to say it now? It would be a good thing for tho province to have s. friend at Court; to have one who has had_ some cxperiencwand, I trust, with ‘some knowledge-of there matters. I think the pooplo have learned, In very many ways, in many

The annual examination of Afton Road School was held on June 29, with a large attendance of parents and visitors. The pupils were ex- amined in the various subjects by their teacher, Miss Mary MacGllllv- ray, assisted by Mrs. Stephen Mac- Dougall, and showed by their accur- atc answers the careful training which they had received during the school year. , '
