Mrs. MacDonald, in her in« trod , said construction of vocational schools arose out of a need for skilled workers. “Many men and women are unemployed because they are unemployabls," she stated.

Mr. Drury said that contrary to the claims made by the Con- servatives. the slate at which legislation was put through the house '

Mr. Drury. also blasted Mr. Diefenbakler and his govern- ment for either not trying. or not wanting to make up their

minds about Canada's obliga- tions and commitments to NATO.

He claimed that by his action in this regard Mr. Diefenbaker had placed Canada in such a po- sition th at the United States were beginning to look at us with the thought that we are un- reliable. unpredictable and also irratlon I.

Mr. Drury stated that should nuclear warheads be acquired for the weapons now in Canada, it w o u l d not cost this country one cent. '

He also stated that if it is de- cided that nuclear arms must be brought to this country, it should be remembered that it should not be left until the last minute. "It is impossible to bring these weapons to Canada. to fit them. test them and give last minute training in less than three weeks" he said.

If on the other hand it is de- finitely established that the Bo- marc missiles and. their launch- ing sites are obsolete. they should be got rid of right away. "The high cost of maintaining the sites and their personnel should be cut immediately" be said

last evening.

“During the past week or so. a large barrage guns w a s heard from the Liberals in Prince County. As far as I can see, they have not fired too much," Mr. Monkley said.

"They say they are a new party, but they’re th e same gang with the same old medic- ine "

Mr. Monkley. speaking with difficulty because of influenza. addressed a large audience in

Legion Community Hall. Other principal speakers were Hon. Andrew MacRae. minister of agriculture, and Hon. Leo Rossiter, minister of fisheries.

Mr. Monkley said the Liberals were promising to “cut Can‘ sda's deficits and give us more at the same time."

He said the Island and other Atlantic provinces were getting “equal rights" under the Diefen- baker government.

Mr. MacRae stressed the im- portance of the coming federal

part yo as people were playing in poll lcs.

ANT He spoke of road work done in Prince in 1959. and of the frozen

flood plant in Kings County. stat- ing that these would be one built in Prince.

In regard to nuclear arms. the minister said. "You might aswellgooutwithspopgun as try to knock down ‘ - tinental ballistic missiles with mch unis."

MT. Rossiter said the Liberals ind accused Prime Minister Dlefmbeker of being indecisive. “ ould you call it indecisive to have all our grants raised under

Stating that some persons had more than one vote in the same district in the last provincial election, the premier suggested it would be better to rob a person at the point of a gun than cheat in voting.

“There is also the case" he said “of the civil servant who bragged that he voted twice. I gave him a good clicking and he won't to it again. One in vot- ed on a cemetery plot —- I lieve he took his oath on it. I don't k n o w what they will put on his grave when he dies."
