Increasing rowdyiem has led attacks on cadidates of many constituencies. Liberal-Conserva- tive lteadquarlers here both issued a state-melt! this morning to the et- fect that these attacks do not em- anate from either of their follow- ene. It is evident that a gang of Communists is abroad, attempting to intimidate candidates of many rldings. Liberals are centering their appeal of the closing hours of the campaign on women electors. pointing out how many commodi- ties in their opinion are certain to increase in pritrc.
