A recording thermometer registers this temperature for future otuh by the inmectors. After being pas- teurized the milk then passes to the cooler through a filter. The water for the cooler is supplied by is jot-pump which is another mod- ern invention. From the cooler the milk goes to the bottle-filler and copper. This instrument has o large tank on the top to receive the milk. Below are four fillers’ and four clippers. The efficiency of this machine is somewhat similar to the bottlewauher. While four bottles are being tilled, four sre being capped, and four full ones are being removed to be replaced by fauc- emptles. When the cases full, they are placed in the cold ro m.

WRITING PAPER, Christmtll loxod 25c to$4.25 Conservative ‘Address i By Maj. LI. A. McDonald i The following oddrosslrwls given recently by Molar John A. Mac- Donald, Pardlgan. Conservative candidate : Third Kings: Some weeks ago I was asked to make an address an this date in the interests o! the Prwresslve conservative Party. I had been getting some of the subject mat.- ter ready when subsequent events were to change the p‘ ‘ con- sldersbly and revisions became necessary due to the sudden call- ing of o provincial general elec- tion. In view of the many slate- ments of the Premier to the con- trary and to the uncertain wea- thor conditions which usually pre- voll st. that. season. such action wan unexpected, unwarranted and can only be traced so Liberal pol- ltlcal expediency. ' Considering the above mention- ed factors and the unusual cir- cumstances surrounding the on- nouneoment. of the datlo by the acting Premier, we are left. with the obvious impression that o split or crisis had developed within the Jones Government ‘which neces- sitated their calling an immediate election. Perhaps we are In an even greater mess than most people be- lieve over the Canada Packers strike - at any rate, we are kept very much ln the dark - possibly the dimension among flovornmenl. members has reached a bursting paint. or could lt. be that the pres- ent government just‘ does not went to ensure that a 800d repre- sentation of the electors cast their ballots on election day. As the time available is short and o number ofspeakers have covered the field from both view- points, I shall endeavor to deal briefly with n few o1 the salient issues involved. Both party manl- festcs have been placed before the people through the press and ra- dio and from the public platform. (A second Liberal manifesto has been placed before the people since this radio speech was delivered). The Liberal one is a peculiar hodge- podge rwhlch gives tho appearance of being the result of someones nightmare. It ls a weak Dlatform containing half sentences. half truths; untruttrs, more wild prom- ises, o. listing of minor routine achievements and a grasping out desperatel to take credit for ev- erything t at came our way in re- cent years. In contrast, the Progressive Conservative Platform is wall writ- ten and balanced, presenting a comprehensive program of excep- tional merit covering all phases of government. I ask you to examine it. ln detail and you will find there a. splendid pattern worthy of your wholehearted support. One of the main items under discussion in this campaign, and no doubt: the most important. is the Dominion-Provincial Agree- ment as it effects this province. After a long period bf negotiation at Ottawa. mostly behind closed doors. the terms of the Agreement were disclosed to the Legislature last. winter for debate and ratific- ation. Hum that time on the more they were examined and exposed by that. body the more evident lt. became that we were on the re- ceiving end of a very bad bargain. The Premier himself could not conceal his disappointment. In his statement to the House he made the following submission: “This province ln its presentation stated that. the minimum subsidy we would require to implement our program within the next five years would amOunt to three millions of dollars, and rwe belllve that had the conference not. adjourned sine die we would have received the fullest support from all the prov- inces". In plain language we re- ceived only slightly more than two-thirds or what we require to carry on the business of the prov- incc. The only hope the Premier held out was that our cause might have been supported by the other provinces had the Conference not adjourned indefinitely, Large Federal Surplus No hope was expressed of a sat- isfactory settlement with the Do- minion despite the fact that Ot- tawa reported s large surplus last. year. Granted that. this surplus was artificially swelled by the sale of War Assets and the reduction of war expenditures the small dif- ferential needed to ensure carrying out the required services of our governmeht. would scarcely have been noticed by the federal gov- ernment. Do you call that grati- tude from Ottarwa, for having n Liberal government ln llne with it? In this the most important re- lation with the King government the fact of being ln llne has ap- parentl availed us no advantage. Deopto all this Government speakers have tried without avail to shove down the throats of the Opposition and of the people of this province the impression that they have done well. Money re- ceived has been acclaimed as l4 lt were a gift, Nor‘. o word about the amount we pay to the Dominion. Last. ear Ottawa. took from us flmdgoo-alrnost. the some amount we are now receiving in subsidies -from the personal income, cor- poration and succession duties tax fields alone. Add on the huge am,- ount derived from the s1. sales and other taxes and you will have some ides, of how badl we fared. Accordlnl to m. . Graham Rogers, Government Stotlstltlan, the amount we are paying in for exceeds whet we are receiving 1n return. In his recent survey ho says: "I hon stly bellovo that we pay in all t taxes. direct and indirect, and freight on goods im- ported and exported at least. $10-- 0001100 oer year." And when the Income Department finishes tho job of collecting from» more » and more‘ farmers the sosles will be tipped still farther in tsvor of the on. The failure of the Janos Gov- ernment to obtain an settlement ls most regrettable la view of our heavy provincial debt. Government speakers hove en- desvored lo minimise this by stet- lng that. this government borrows at 235% while the Bteworvlloc- Mlllnn Government. paid about 6%. As any one with an elementary knowledge of business andflls trends knows this is merely the difference between current borrow- lng, rates and those of the jorrner period. Liberal supporters will also try to impress you with false sur- pluses declared on ordinary ac- count only, rwlthout considering capital account. This is a deliber- ate juggling of the figures without giving s full picture oi the (inan- clal position of the province. Hem is the true state as set out. in the government's report "Comparative Statistics of Public Finance." It shows that our gross funded debt in i936 was $515-$000. After ll years of Liberal government it ls $l1.533.000. double what it was in 1985 and aver five times what it was in 1925. When some of the other provinces have been Con. templeting complete debt. retire- ment and others having been re- cording substantial overall sur- pluses yearly, our pnslllon under the recent Liberal governments h“ become an extremely unen- vlable one. Treatment o’! Vetonna let. us turn for a short time to the Jones Government/treatment’. of veterans. To begin with this Rovarnment in 194d denied us the privilege of voting when govern- menls of other provinces were most. solicltous during the war in seeing that their servicemen were Riven the vol/c, Any one with a spark 0,f patriotism or interest. in his province wishes to exercise the franchise and its denial to ul was deeply resented. The lame excuse that. it would dost too much was exposed in all its lnslncerlty when it. was slrovrlr at the last session of the Legislature from figures re- celved from New Brunswick and Nova Scotla that the cost per man would have been only s. few cents. The statement in the Liberal manifesto that “Veterans demand; have been met" ls maliciously WPOHS. (In the latest liberal Plat- form no provision ls made to deal with their problems). Every mem- ber of the Government and any one with a. knowledge of veterans problems here knows than At, the second lust session, n resolution was passed endorsing the principle of the veterans preference and promising that. veterans organisa- lions would be notified o! perm- anenl. provincial Civil service jobs when vacant. Every member of the Hausa voted in favor of this. mspite placing themselves on record as endorsing this policy the govern. merit has broken its word repeat. edly by appointing non-veterans to permanent positions without con- flicting veterans orzanizatlons to find out if there is a qualified ex- rrervlceman or woman who could do‘t.he jab. These backdoor meth- ods can scarcely be appreciated by men often placed at a serious dis- advantage on the labor market due to their years of war service and often desperately 1n need of Work. These men who have served their province and their country so'un- selflshly in her huur ol greatest. need are thus forced to stand down [or political favorites, On the first. day that. I look my seat in the House an examrple of this oc- curred. The position of Law Clerk was declared vacant. and the Pre- mier proposed a non-veteran. The Leader qt the Opposition. Dr. Mac- Millan immediately proposed the name of a well-qualified veteran with five years overseas service. The Opposition supported the vet- eran and every Liberal member vorcd against him so that he did not. Bet the job, During that ses- sion I listened ta the Premier and other melrrbers of the government. cxtoll the returning servicemen. stating "that nothing was too good for rlhem". etc.. and I wondered just‘ how much they meant it. We are finding out today. Fbr this situation 1t is obvious that. we sorely need exservicemen in the Legislature and in tho Gov- ernment to uphold our cause. The Liberals have none in the House nnd have only nominated one. The Progressive Conservatives have three sitting members to fight for the veteran and have nominated eight men who are veterans. rop- resenling districts 1n each count]. From these significant figures you can surmise which party will give the veteran the most support. It has been noted that where vet- erans have been elected to public office in other parts of Canada and in the United States they have dealt with the problems of the do in o typically courageous and in ependent manner. They have been particularly effective in deal- ing fearlessly with the political lrlrellngs and parasites of govern- ment. Rehabilitation 5 e Liberal speakers have stat- ed t. at there will be no need for tho Department of Labor and Vet- erans Affairs which the Fran-es- rive Conservatives will set. up and operate st little or no additional expense under- a competent minis- ter. It ls too bod that s number of people evidence little interest in Veterans Affairs - olcopt their vote. otherwise they would know thatthore ore many difficulties confronting veterans throughout the province today where great os- slstonce could be gtvvlfby such a department.
