Platfortn Dedicated To “The Common Man”

OTTAWA, Oct. 3 --- lCPl - The Progressive Conservative Pz-rty has a new pintfcrm dedic- ated to the common man.

The last. of the 30 planks were cemented down Saturday in the closing hours of the Party's na- tional convention and with them went one hearing a magic, vote- cstohing name: Margarine.

The margarine resolution, em- erging ss one of the major polic- ies o1 the new program, calls for the lifting of the han on the pm- duction and sale of margarine in Canada.

It ranked in importance with a defence plank urging the prompt strengthening of Canada's armed forces and calling for immediate

Canadian participation in the Berlin air 11ft. But, while {he defence resolu-

tion came from the Party's pel- icy-mskcrs, the 1934mm resolu- tions ccmmittce, the margarine plank came from the ranks of the

delegates on the convention floor ‘

during a debate on how hast the Party could fight the rising cost or living.

It. author was a British Colum- his. delegate. L5. Eckardt of Pow- ell River. 3.0., who added it. as an amendment to the cost-ot- llving resolution and won prompt support from three other deleg- ates and a clamor of HD1110"! from the whole convention when
