MACKENZIE Kl

Shall I Vote for

KING 0R MANIO

There is only one decision to be made by the Canadian people on March 26th. It is this:

Shall our country’s war effort be handed over to unknown, unnamed politicians . . . to a makeshift cabinet with Dr. Manion as the self-appointed leader?

OR: Shall our country’s war effort be continued vigorously

and faithfully by the known and proven administration of Mackenzie King?

That is the question YOU must answer.

ﬁ Up a Blind Alley?—or—Ouf in the Open!

It is time for plain speaking. Dr. Manion’: pretence of offering “national" government is sheer political deceit. Because: even if he were elected to office, Dr. Manion could not organize or lead a truly national government. The parliamentary group which might follow him would fail to represent all Canada. It would not represent the people of the national Liberal party. It would not represent the people of the C. C. F. party. It would not represent the people of the historic Conservative party which Dr. Manion has now scuttled.

Do not: be deceived! Dr. Manion cannot iii/e you National Government. The best he might give you would be government by unknown followers. He invites you to follow him up a blind alley-to vote tfor a government of his own iniagination— answerable to some undisclosed political group.
