Attention is drawn to the Election Act, which makes it un- lawful to engage in corrupt practices, including the buying and selling of votes and the use of intoxicating liquor for Election purposes.
The Electorate is urged to use its democratic right to vote, and to use its influence to prevent such violations of the Elec- tion Act.
Indifference regarding voting and the winking at corrupt practices will not only weaken our political life, but lower the moral life of our people.

Chief Justice Reviews Charge Of Manslaughter 2
..m
Offering a suggestion to the At- torney Generai. Mr. W. 1:. Derby, that it might be advisable for him and the law makers to seek ways to avoid what he termed "a judicially unsound position” from occurring again in the future, chief Justice T. A. Campbell, in Supreme Court yesterday, regrett- ed that he had to sit on a case in which Mr. Justice George J. Tweedy appeared charged with manslaughter. , .
The Chief Justice stated he found it embarrassing that there is not some other machinery in the Province for handling a case arising out of circumstances of this kind. "It appears to me that s. member of the judicial court should not come up for trial on a serious charge of this kind before one of his colleagues." I-lis Lord- ship stated. He added that it was a happening so rare that the mak- era of the law did not foresee it arising.
He said the result of the present system was judicially embarrassing for the Court. He compared the situation to one of the counsel present having to prosecute his law partner or a businessman proceeding against his associate, and if such a. position arose in- volving a petit or grand juryman there would be raised the question of qualification.
"By the same token I do not feel I should be on this case and if there were any alternative machinery I would decline." say- ing that he knew of no such machinery he had ijurlsdiction of necessity!
Chief Justice Campbell ment- ioned the widespread publicity the case had attracted and the talking that had been done by people concerning it.
In addressing the Grand Jury about the case he said the charge made is the serious one of man- slaughter by causing death by criminal negligence and he would indicate to them what was meant. He said it was not like simple negligence involved in a motor vehicle collision where damages might be collected. Then only a small degree of negligence need be established to fix liability.
Degree of Negligence
This was niat so in criminal negligence. It is a degree and kind of negligence which results from complete disregard of the con- sequences ad an action. It is des- cribed as gross negligence or culpable negligence. Such a type depended on many things such as conditions of traffic. of the high- way. on people and motor vehicles. I-lc told.the jury that considering all those they would have to ap- ply the standards of a reasonable man. Even if a person were proven negligent and liable to compensate the injured he would not neces. sarily be guilty of criminal neglig- ence.
The Chief Justice stated thatit must include a high degree and special kind of negligence consist- ing almost of moral turpitude; such a degree which will call down the condemnation of a community as a whole.
He told the Grand Jury that this case has received a great deal of public comment. The accused was entitled to exactly the some consideration as the humblest person. Any factor or prejudice arising in the public mind due to the accused's , n In society should be eliminated from the mind of the jury, he stated, as he told them they should deal only with the facts and evidence be- fore them.
outlines Evidence
Chief Justice Campbell gave the jury is brief outline of the events leading to the trial. He told how Gerald Solomon. Mary MacDonald and Charles Gardiner left the city in a 3-ton Ford truck about 7 p. m.. April 14. He traced the route they took over the Hillsborough

Gerald Waring Reporting
OTTAWA -- There's perhaps less sympathy in Ottawa for the automobile industry than it de- serves, now that it's plagued from manufacturer to retailer by a. sur- plus oi almost unsaleable new cars.
"Theylve made a killing in the last few years." one member of Parliament told me. "I can't get worked up about their difficul- ties now."
The industry contends the chief cause of the car pileup is the Federal Government consumer credit regulation which requires car buyers to lay down half the purchase price as the initial pay- ment, and pay the rest in not more than a year.
Trade Minister Howe. on the other hand. argues that the dot- drums in the car business are at- tributable to the fact that many people rushed to buy new cars early this spring, before Finance Minister Abbott brought. down his budget containing a 10 per cent tax increase on autos.
Objective observers believe both arguments are valid. However, that's little consolation to manu- facturers who have to cut pro- duction and lay oil workers, and to retailers whose lots are jam- med with new cars costing them money every day they remain un- sold.
A sharp reduction might start them moving. but rather than face such loss of pro- fit, the industry is trying first to get Ottawa to ease the consumer credit regulatl.ons. .
From the manufacturers point of view, the situation wouldult be quite so bad if there were alterna- tive deience orders. They could switch part of their productive capacity to making army trucks. confident that eventually theyd be able to dispose of their large civilian car inventories. But that isn't the position.
As Howe told the C mmons the other day, Chrysler will make 456 light trucks for the services, and General Motors 780 heavy trucks. In addition, Ford is study- ing the possibllity of producing jeeps. But that's a Dlcayunc pro- gram for an industry geared to turn out 171.000 units a. year.
However, any easing of the cre- dit restrictions means adding to inflationary pressures, and the Government will think long and seriously before taking such ac- tion.

the only ones suffering none the effects of this anti-inflation policy. Makers of washing machines. and refrigerators report the same pat- tern of surplus production, re- duced current output. and layoffs. It's the same with the radio and Sales of radios are down 50 per cent; TV sets down 75 per cent. Top of- ficials of one big company were in Ottawa last week crying on the shoulder of Howe in his role of defence production boss. 'I'helr warehouses are full of radios they can't sell.
Their company already has de- fence orders for radar and other electronic equipment up to about a quarter of its productive cape- elty, but it's handicapped by lack of cash. It has millions tied up in its warehouses - money it needs to tide it over until defence contract payments start rolling in. Normally it would borrow the money it needs. but the banks are not permitted. by the Gov- ernment's anti-inflation policies to extend the required credit.
Thus the company may be forced to lay off workers and risk losing them to other industries- a serious matter. for the com- pany will need all its trained work-
