     years of Liberal rule in this province has underlined history’ s lesson that long years in office make a government weak, neglectful of the public interest, cs: 
     
     tul of the fact that they are the elected representatives of ALL the people, and not a government of special privilege to the favoured few.

     The Conservative Party is convinced that the electors of Prince Edward Island will remind the Liberal administration of their neglect, mismanagement and for- 
     
     getfulness on September ist by electing at the polls a Progressive Conservative Government . . . A new government, a revitalized government, & government

     We are confident of our ability te fulfill this pledge to you because of the variety and high order of the skills our candidates bring before you—the electorate, 
     
     Truly, these men have been selected from the highest level of the occupations and professions they represnt. It is fitting that agriculture is the chosen: work of 
     
     50% of the Conservative candidates, many of them with national reputations in this field. Many are successful businessmen associated with the farming and 
     
     fishing industries; others are prominent lawyers and doctors. The fact that such outstanding candidates have placed their namés before the electorate gives

     tors of the Island led the Conservative victory and made history when we became the first province in Canada te have a solid Conservative delegation of 
     
     Federal members to represent us there. Not for a moment has any man, woman or ehild had eause te regret this decision for there has beon a new deal in Can-

     interests of Prince Edward Island will be better served by, a Conservative administration at Charlottetown, a government in line with the one in power at . 
     
     Ottawa arid with our ewn four Federal members. Our claims will thus be assured of a vigorous, united representation.
