Conservative Leader Nails Whispering Campaign And Appeals For United, Non- partisan Administration. BROCKVILLE, Ont., Feb. 8--(CP)—Consrvative lead- er Manion opened his Federal election campaign tonight with the charge that Prime Minister Mackenzie King had

hampered British defence plans by refusing permission to Britain to establish air training camps in Canada two

years ago.

Speaking to a party rally here, Dr.

Manion gave an

address that is expected to be the keynote of the Conscr- vative campaign in the Federal election. Dr. Manion, in brief, made the following claims:__

l. If Britain's request had been met, schools would have been established

factories in Canada and

Dr. Manion defended his plans for a‘ National Gov- ifhmrlii- against what he termed were rumors circulating

Dr. Manion said “I very . it is unnecessary under

present-day conditions of war-fare. “in the last war its chief result was national disunity “mi misundt-Tsiilhdi"! and it raised "few men for our

army.”

Reizarding a rumor that n National Gove nrment would b11112 in amp gamation of ilic railways, Dr. Manion said his own '1 position and that of his party was the same as it had been, opposi- tion to unification.
