JUNE 12. 1930 Premier K ingfls Ultimatum Ari unnecessary convention for the selection of candidates to contest Qlleflfi County has been called b,v the Liberal executive at Charlotte- town. According to the Patriot. it is for Premier Mackenzie Kling to decide "who the man shall be that will be associated with him around the Council board." Consequently Li he wants a particular friend and favorite in his Cabinet, he has the well-known." They are. There is no difference between them and the re. markable fiscal ideas which made up the National Policy of Macdonald, a policy which contributed more than any other one thing to the progress and development of Canada. The Macdonald policy was not “based up- 0n the principle of trade exclusion,“ and the Bennett policy is not. But this kind of wilful misrepresentation has been characteristic oi all Liberal campaigns in recent years and, ap- rigbt to dictate to any constituencyl parently. it is to serve its purpose in whom their resprcsentative orvrepre- aentatives shall be. Unfortunately for the freedom and independence oi the Liberal delegates. Premier Mackenzie King has fixed upon Queen's Coun- ty as a constituency on which he can practice his Mussolini proclivit- tes. it has been decided by Premier Mackenzie King that the Liberals of Queen's County shall select as one oi their candidates Dr. Cyrus Mac- millan of McGill University; and. oi course. u M'r, P. H. Jenkins. the late member. failed to get the Senator- ship which his colleague Mr. Sinclair the contest which is now beginning. The [Vational Policy "We are all proud to belong to a party with a policy. Not a make- shift, not a make-believe. not a. vote- catching policy. but a. real policy’; a policy that was born when Canada was born; a policy that was laid down by the makers of Canada; a policy that has done everything to build up the Canada of today; r. policy that will do everything to carried off. it has also been decidcdi by the executive that he shall be; Dr. Cyrus Macmillans running mate. This being so. is it really worth while holding a convention to select can- didatesr Even were there any opposition to the candidate designated by the "power that is" at Ottawa, the pro- posers would immediately be toldby the executive that any man who dared to oppose this nominee would be ostracized by the Prime Minister make Canada the great country it will be in future generations. "It is said that the Liberals have stolen our policy, They haven't stol- en it. We have it yet; and we shall implement it after the election!"— Hon. J. D, Stewart, K. C., at Tuesday's Conservative convention at George- town. America and India Commenting on the recent press and his Government. It 15 a Very humiliating P0531011; clergymen have made a memorial to for the Liberal delegates at today's: the premm- of gm“, Britain 35k. convention. Premier Mackenzie Kingi l is treating them in the same way that Premier Lea treated the farm-ll ers with regard to taxation. They‘ have to take. their candidates in the: same manner as children are dosed: with castor Oll. Democracy has come to a pretty pass in these days of ‘ Mackenzie King Liberalism when. qovaizumant is administered from the I cupola‘ down instead oi from the‘ basement up. With all due deference to the opinion of the Liberal organ“ we do not think the Prime Minister». has an unrestricted right. to say whom he shall select to sit with him around ‘ the Government table. His right is confined to the men whom the free and independent electors choose as their candidates and return as their members in the House of Commons. The Safest Plan ivrrmy are the comments heard by the Conservative candidates on the topsy-tuny tariff tactics of the Mackenzie King Government. Hon. J. D. Stewart related one at the Georgetown convention. It was told by an old gentleman in Queen's County, a former staunch Liberal but a stauncher believer in political con- sistency and sincerity. "The Liber- als," he said, "have brokendn and robbed the Conservative nest and stolen the Conservative eggs. But I think, after all, that those eggs can be better hatched by the auld hen that laid them." Western Campaign Provender The Manitoba. Free Press makes the bold statement that the King Government's leading concern is to stimulate Canada's export business. particularly with Great Britain. The Dunning tariff. as the Montreal Ga.- zetter points out. accomplished noth- ing whatever in that direction, while it does encourage an exactly oppo- announcement that 102 American ing him to make an amicable settle- ment with Mr. Gandhi in India, a writer in the Vancouver Province says: . "America is awfully interested in India because it thinks it could run it better than we do. One might note, however. that strange as the proceedings in India may seem to the American mind, it. has never yet been recorded that any English officer, soldier or other resident nas ever iymfri-a‘. a r532 for any alleged crime. "Let these soft-hearted diviries start a crusade into Alabama, Tex- as. Arkansas and contiguous points and look into the situation of their owri colored population. There was a rather beastly lynching only last week." An Ostrich Egg? r Discussing the King Govern- ment's. failure to implement the rec- ommendations oi the Duncan Com- mission for readjustment of the sub- ~ sidy claims of the Maritime Prov- inces, Dr. W. J. MacMillan, at the Georgetown convention on Tuesday, referred to the extraordinary state- ment of Hon. Charles Stewart. Min- istcr of the Interior. that if and when the Maritirnes presented any claims the‘ Government would be pre- pared to consider them. “Where,"_ asked a gentleman in tho audience. “was Mr. Leas pamphlet?" "Oh. they don't know yet what kind oi an ‘egg that is going to be." Dr. MacMillan replied while the audience roared with laughter. "It is still hatching." Editorial Notes British schoolmasters back from a trip through Canada have been seiz- ed with an idea not of their own con- ception. They suggest that British boys, looking to careers overseas. should complete their education of a Canadian university-an excellent way of bringing youth into proper re- lationship with the psychology and conditions of the Dominion. But. site movement. an increase in Can- adian imports of manufactured pro- ducts from Great Britain, and pro- portionately keener competition for Canadian industries, Canadian Agri- culture and Canadian labor. As to the Conservative policy, the m»: Press states that Mr. Bennett's says the London Saturday Review, there is a side in the questio the schoolmasters overlook. ‘Boys educat- ed at Canadian universities are snapped up by the United States. where larger emoluments are offered than Canada can afford.

The prevalence of the au- more people to get outdoors and to see more of the world in shorter time. and in their enthusiasm over this. new development, and in the natural, delight in being out in the open iti is very posible that the home in many cases suiiers. Thisdoes not justify, however, ex- travagant statements or condemna- tioris of youth. If there is anything in the laws of heredity or oi envir- onment what the young people pos- sess today in the way oi a roving or carefree disposition is directly trace- able to what their parents are or to what their parents have done. It is useless for the older generation to attempt to shirk their responsibility in this respect and presume that some new spirit has entered into the younger generation not known to their fathers or their forefathers. All progress is due to shaking off the trainmels of the past and em- barking on unknown seas. as illus- trated in the great navigators and ex- plorers and in the lives of hundreds oi Englishmen who have gone into the farthest corners of the earth to plant the seeds of law and justice and “orderly government.

An astonished motorcycle policeman saw two old-fashioned horse-drawn buggies coming down the street at a terrific clip. As they shot past him he ordered the driv- ers to stop.

It had never occurred to them that they might break the speed lim- It is not often. these days. that the driver of a horse gets arrested for speeding. Our faith in freedom is based on the belief that every human soul has its own sovereign rights-rights that are not merely granted by so- ciety but are an essential of the hu- man character. Since society is no- 'thing apart from the men and wom- en of which it is fashioned it can never ignore this right of freedom without courting its own destruction. Th, dug" o: neglect in making necessary repairs especially 1Y1 matters which involve danger to human life is pointed Out lfl 8 paragraph in the Toronto Telegram of recent date. It says: "That there should be any level crossing on the Toronto-Montreal highway is a difficult thirg to explain It is even more difficult to explain how it could be that the protecting gates at one of these crossings should have been out oi commission for twelve days. Had the gates been operating it is possible that they might not have prevented the fatality in which six pcrsozt‘: met death near Ooburg on Sunday. 0n the other hand, it is possible that had the gates been down the accident would not have occurred. The striped arms of the gates offer the wai-ning a motorist expects at a crossing and are more effective than even a man with a lantern. It is explained that a. truck had broken the gates on May 13th, and that to effect the necessary repairs it was necessary to procure a casting. are broken would suggest that parts would be readily available. Some further explanation should be forth- oomicg as to why. after the expiry of two weeks, the repairs had not been completed."
