Meanwhile, however, the emphasis seems to have shifted to the agricul- tural field. This, Mr. Campbell insists, is where the government: has fallen down most calamitously, ignoring the dact that agriculture is the backbone

- greater percentage of our citizens. Well then, says the ‘government:

‘____let’s see_where_this-argument teadg®) Farm dollar Sales were a record $41,- “000,000 in 1965; in the last full year of Liberal rule in the province they were $28,307,000. Estimated net farm income for 1965 was $16,000,000, as against $12,218,000 in the last Me eral year. The current budget of Department of Agriculture i is $1,500,- 000—three tines greater than in ‘he: last year of Liberal government. The Conservatives claim credit, moredver for $3,000,000 loaned—in over 875 loans—to young farmers to settle on farms. New, farm-related industries have involved upwards of 1,000 farm- ers and created fiundreds of jobs for ‘farm men and women. Impressive gains were also made in: dairy herd improvement, quality control inspec- tion and other phases of the industry. Much more is being promised under the Rural Development Auth- ority to be set up by the Conserva- tives; much more, too, under the new, | Liberal: policy: On both sidés,. now, | the farmers are being wooed with ardor, and it may be difficult for them to make a choice: We shan’t _attempt to do it for them. But against the argument of having negleeted their interests there is the past record of both parties which may help to throw some light on the subject. We have had to take the comparison made by the Conservatives~6n ‘this > point, for the Liberals haven't: pre-

Sented any.

What, No Bouquets?

Former Finance Minister Walter Gordon now thinks he might have been wrong in asking ‘the Liberal party to “move to the left” in his ‘widely publicized new book, A Choice for. Canada. ‘‘Progressive,’ he con- -cedes, might have been a better word. But that will only get him another blast from that “progressive™ com= mentator and former NDP member for Port Arthur, Douglas Fisher, who

~ claims Mr. Gorforf's new gospel is as _ \ phoney -as a plugged. nickel. “This |

« is the developing con game,” he chargey. “in which the Liberal Party recaptures attention of the public _with a repeat exercise: in putting on an apparently radical and national- - istic face.” The fact*that it is being assumed at a’time when the party is holding power: makes it ' “nothing but a swindle.”

“The game is developing in or:

eral Party organization,” » Says Fisher. “Not even ‘the Toronto Star has the nerve left. to resurrect another ‘new’ Mike Pearson. So it has to be tem Liberal .Party’. with Walter Gordon back from the comfy wilderness as John the Baptist and, ee: its messiah.” »

But Mr. Gordon's—book. is. get- ting blasts from Liberal sources as well. Manitoba Liberal leader Gil Molgat has called on Prdirie Liberals

staunch and seasoned Liberal writer,

Bruce Hutchison, has some devastat—|

ing comments on the subject. For the most part, he says, the work is “an assortment of highly respectable platitudes,” such as Mr. Gordon’s be- lief in racial unity, economic growth and the good life for all. Canadians. “Apart from certain specific proposals

He may suc- -ceed in both directions but. it will be a pity if the Liberals, and other Can- adians, don’t understand what he is really doing.” : Which raises the question, of course, whether Mr. Gordon himself understands what_he’s trying to do.

The Year In New York

Poor old New York! An Associat- -

ed Press dispatch says that in the great American metropolis, 1966 will go down as ‘the year of the big flat tire.” The year isn’t half over, but so far just.about every form of public transportation in the_city has had a strike-caused blowout.

The taxi drivers went on strike Thursday night, leaving only a few of the city’s 11,700 cabs on the street, The few cabs left headed for the air- ports to take care of some of the travellers stranded by a strike of airport bus drivers.
