These amounts are the concrete result of “Tory, picnic trips” to Ottawa which Liberal apologists condemn because of the few hundred dollars paid in transportation and hotel accommodation l _ ~ . In addition, the Government o tained from the Carne-

gie Foundation over $100,000 for demonstration library purposes for the benefit of every rural community in the Province. Also $88,000 for establishment of a chair of Economiés and Sociology at Prince of Wales College.

The late Liberal Government obtained NOTHING in the way of subsidy increase and “on difierent occasions”, according to Ex-Premier‘ Saunders, “DECLINED TO CO-OPERATE” with the Conservative Premiers of Nova Scotla and New Brunswick, andwith the Maritime Board of Trade. ,

They obtained NOTHING in the way of unemployment relief from the Mackenzie King Government.

They obtained NOTHING from the Carnegie Foun- dation.

“We are not concerned with the past”, says Mr. W. M. Lea.

Why should they be? Their past is as barren o. achievement as their platform is of hope.
