[wilaring Misstatement By Fisheries Minister I Re The Duncan Report

Many Important Recommends. tions Dealing With Freight Rates Still Unimplemented By King Government, Despite Hon. Cyrus MacMillan’s Ern- phatic Statement To The Con-

trary At Political Gathering.

"' At the York political meeting, according to the local Liberal organ,‘ Hon. Cyrus Macmillan stated emphatically that the Duncan Report “has been im- plemented in full except for the final adjustment of subsidy." lf Mr. Macmillan is correctly reported, then he is guilty either of gross ignorance with respect to recommendations to which he himself, as a member of the Duncan Commission, affixed his signature, or he has deliberately attempted to deceive the elect- ars of Queens County from whom he is now solicit- irlg votes as a Liberal candidate. Even with respect to the single series of recommendations dealing

with freight rates. Mr. Macmillan's statement is far

jlrom the truth.

Still Unimplemented

in the first place, the Duncan Report (page 22) recommended a reduction of 20 per cent on import rates to cover traffic moving from ports in the Mari-

Kzngis Opposition To Federal Grants, Beyond All Denial

Prime Minister lWhile Admitting This Government Could Grant “Any Sum Of Money They De- sired To The Provinces” Em- phatically Refused Further

Financial Assistance.

-The Liberal candidates and their party organ are obviously alarmed atthe favorable effect of Hcrl. R. B. Bennett's assurance that the federal grants for agricultural and technical training, discontinued by the King Government, will be revived by the Con- servatlve administration when returned to power after July 28th. The endeavor is being made to show that the Prime Minister is not unfavorable to these grants. while the local Liberal organ has gone so fai as to deny that they have ever been discontinued.

Ever on the offensive. aligning facts in formidable array, never successful- ly contradicted, the Conservative can- didates received at the beginning and end of their addresses loud and en- thusiastic applause.
