the enemy.

In sicily it came to grips, and won the day in common with the British and American forces en- gaged in that operation.

The navy now can look bacic on a major share in what may rank a; one oi the itive United Nat- ions victories, t. e squelching oi the U-boat menace in the north At- iantic.

The air force can claim the eq- uivalent of a major victory in the now - establltlted success o1 the British Commonwealth Air Train- ing Plan which has given the United Nattcns air superiority over Germany. and, on the oper- atiOlill side, in the big part played by Canadians in the bombing off- ensive against Germany still in progress and with consequences still to be appraised.

The fifth year oi war promises more action ior all three forces, particularly ior the army.

Canadians Push Ahead on Foot

By WILLIAM STEWART Canadian PrmWarCot-raapondent W111i THE CANADLANS IN ITALY, Sept. 5-(Delayed)—(CP Ca-blei-Canadian troops have penetrated more than l0 miles in- to Italy and helped to occupy‘ a mountainous area of more r an 200 square miles._

They are prlslnng ahead largely on toot and their enginee , work- ing vroll forward, are repairing hastily laid German demoliriona. Only slight opposition has been encountered. Troops on the road came under tire ot one Qverman machine-gun nest. which was quickly si enced. The gun was man~ ned by a party covering German engineers who we‘; preparing road demolitions.

In another area Canadﬁins met a reconnaissance wit)‘ at British commandos which had landed on the night of Aug. 3'7 and taken cover in the hills.

A Canadian headquarters staff officer making a personal recon- naissance in a Jeep was fired upon by the cornmand- who mistook him for a German officer. The Canadipn identified himself and gave rations to the soldiers. Transport an supplies ior the Canadians conti ue to arrive in an endless stream across Messina Straits without interference.

The proposals of Progressive Conservative Leader John Bracken, and the Progressive Conservative Program for Conodo recently formulated ere for ond ov/oy the most forward-looking end the nest hops-inspiring that Canada has ever known.

They give to the common mun-the herd working teller- former, laborer ond fishermen-a new vision of better things to come; and solid grounds for belief that immediately following the close of the war ond the election of a Progressive Conservative gov- ernment there will be mode available to him in substance and reality something of the better world hoped for as e result of the bloodshed and sacrifices of these present doys.

Meanwhile in Prince Edward island o provincial election is to be hold. it was brought on hurriedly, undoubtedly because Mr. Mc- Kenzie King beiieved that on o quick decision, with such on immense proportion of the younger generation disfronchised, and with some lavish promises ond other unmentionobie considerations a Liberal victory might be registered here, thus offsetting to some extent the

- disastrous and devastating results of the provincial elections in Ont- ario end the bye elections in the other provinces. So the eyes of oil Canada are upon us here. The result is of undoubted importance.

The thirty Progressive Conservative candidates seeking election here on Wednesday next under the leadership of Hon. Doctor Mn:- Miilen are working in close ctr-operation with Mr. Bracken ond all his policies which are being received with such enthusiasm from coast to coast.

And particularly in respect to his policies for social welterw-

sccioi betterment—o wider distribution of the good things of iite—

more certain amelioration of difficulties resulting from accidents, ill fortune and iii health.

In Prince Edward island the outstanding-tho crying need-in the social field hos been for increased accommodation at the Prov- incial Sonetorium.

The need for more beds at the Sonotorium has been apparent for years. Public opinion has been particularly focussed upon it tor many months. The institution has not been ebie to occommodot‘ anything like the number of those who should have been cerod for within its wuils ond nursed buck to health instead of being allowed to go down to early death. Ail the Wemens‘ institutes and hundreds of other organizations have been asking and praying that construction of additional accommodation be started.

Yet month after month has passed ond no sod has been turned. No excavation. No construction.

With the outbreak of wor four long years ago a considerable portion of the Sonotorium accommodation had of necessity to bo reserved for men in the armed services, thus reducing the accommod- Oil-a for civilian use.

Fortunately indeed the stress and strain of active fighting was deferred for most Canadian soldiers including the men from Prince Edward island. But what may happen at any time.

The needed increased accommodation is new to come.

But why in heaven's nome has construction been so long deioyi ed?

Why isn't the increased accommodation ready for occupation now i Another building season is drawing to its close.

And no hope remains for the completion of this terribly vital work before winter comes.

And unfortunately Mr. biackenzie King having steadfastly with- held Federal aid (until just before an election which it is vitll tor him ta wlni construction costs have so increased in the meantime as every builder know: that a one hundred bed extension will now cost at least fifty thousand dollars morv-perha a sixty thousand or even the tull seventy-live thousand more-than t. would have cost it built in 194?- leaving the cost to the Province almost it not uite as great an it it hid done the job last. your or in 194i without any rderal aid.

The thirty Progressive Conservative candidates proclaim to tho world where they stand in respect to Snnoiorium accommodation.

if they had been in power there would be no need for agitation new. With Dr. MocMiiion at the helm the work would have been storied inohtirs ogo.

Here's the paragraph which states their policy in their Prov- incial Platform.

Plank No. i2. "We viii vigorously prosecute tire war against "tuberculosis including the enlargement of existing facilities at the ‘Provincial Sonotorium ond will initiate a practical policy of post "sanoforium and home treatment,- working in close ire-operation with "all citizen organization; end will endeavour to bring medical "assistance to remote sections of the country where the need exists."

Two other paragraphs in the Progressive Conservative Platform deal with Social Welfare. Here they ore:

Plank No. 2. "We will at ell times work in effective co-operotion "with the Dominion Government and oii other governing bodies in "Canada in oil activities which will assist in the prosecution of the "war to a successful termination and in establishing e sound basis of "social and economic security for oil our people."

Plank No. H. "Our Party having introduced Old Age Pensions "in i932 and the cost of living since then having greatly increased "we will increase the Old Ago Pensions to the fuli limit now possible, "nomeiy Twenty-Five Dollars per month and here-after the property not persons in receipt of pension will not be subject te e pension

ten."
