Lake Simcoe is situated be- rvrcen Lake Ontario and Georgian Bay; named after Governor Simcoeb father. Its area is three hundred square miles, known to the Indians as Teyoyagon, and to the French as Lac ill] Claiea. It was discovered by Champlain in 1615, and was within the field of the famous Huron Mission of the Jesuit fathers. La Salie cross- ed the lake in 1680, on his way west to the Mississippi; and tile following year dated one of his letters from the long portage between Toronto and Simcoe. A ument was erected to Champlain at Orillia, on Lake Sim- voe, in 1925.

Public Opinion Points "Why. the trend of public opinion reveals this even to those who do not know the entire affair," he continued. “It is terrible- It is the most scanda- lous aflair I have ever heard of." Bcauharnois, he intimated. will be the battle cry of the present election before voting day is passed. Western Canada. from which Mr. Preston has only recently returned, is talking of the deal, it is on every lip, he said. Western Canada, he suggested, will Want to know the entire story. For 50 years Mr. Preston has been closely allied with Liberalism orl the platform in the press and in party work. He has been Liberal organizer in Ontario and several times was a Liberal candidate for election to par- liament. Now. he claims, because the Liberal Government has failed in its discharge of the duties of office, he can no longer support it. “I have not become a. Conservative," he stated. "Perhaps I have become conservative as one will as the years pass. I am as firmly behind the great Liberal principles as I have known and preached them for half a cen- tury. Little details in the carrying out of a policy may change from time to time but the basic principles remain always the same and it is be- cause of the utter disregard for these principles by the King administration that I have been forced to withdraw my support for the government. “Liberal principles uphold truthful- ness consistency and straightforward- ness. Keeping faith with the public redeeming solemn pledges made to the electors, protection of the public treasury, honest "administration of public affairs and the safeguarding of the public domain from plunderers and explciters are Liberal principles. Like Some of Them “I would not say that in some of these particulars the Government has been found wanting," he continued. "For some of its members I enter- tain the highest regard and respect, but of certain Cabinet Ministers I fear that my opinion is well founded. For five years I have been struggling with myself because it. is difficult after a life-time of associations to voice oile’s opposition to the party which was chosen by the people for the principle it. expounded. But since the party was winner in 1921 and its‘ government‘ took ofllce there seemed to be a decided determina- tion to avoid redeeming the pledges which it had made to the electors to win their support." His first real shock and realization that the King Government disregard- - ed all but itself came, he stated. dur- ing the discussion in the House of the lprcposed contract with the late Sir William Peterson for the operation of a. fleet of ships on the North Atlantic to bring about a reduction in ocean freight rates. “Then when 1 heard the Prime Minister earnestly state in the House that the much discussed contract with the shipping magnate/was not due to or based upon my report to the Gov- ernment, I had my first real shock," he stated. "The Prime Minister then augmented that the contract had been made in early December, where- as my report had not been received until December 31- “Even while he said that, I had in my pocket a. letter signed by the Prime Minister and dated five months previously, acknowledging my interim report, thanking me for it, congratu- lating me upon it and instructing me to bring Sir William Peterson to Can- ada. so that my negotiations could be completed between Sir William and the Government. swallowed Pride At that time Mr. Peterson had ‘swallowed his pride, he stated. and waited. Rather than jeopardize the final details of the plan, for which he had worked so long and upon which Sir William had assumed $7,- 000,000 in ship building contracts. he held his peace. Had he challenged the Prime Minister at that time, he stated. he might have ruined Sir Wil- llam, who had shouldered heavy fin- ancial burdens on the Prime Minis- ter's assurance that Parliament would press the ratification of the contract for the operation of the ships. Still further, he continued. had he been placed in a. bad position by the Prime Minister. After 1921 when the Liberal Government took office, he had acted as go-between for Premier Kim: in negotiations with the late Sir Clffiord Sifton. . Certain promises weer made regarding immigration, he claimed upon which Sir Clifford was . to throw his support towards the Government- These pledges were never fulfilled, he added. Regarding Western Canada, he said, the King Government had broken faith continually. To win Progres- sive support in the House when the Liberal ranks were weak, promises were made that the Crow's Nest pass freight rates agreement should be made operative on shipments both east and west over the mountains. Then; he stated, when the bill was brought into committee a. Liberal high up in the Cabinet had can- vassed the mmittee ‘ rs and had it defeated. This relieved the Government of the responsibility of enacting it and sponsoring it further "'I‘hen I became truly assured that for bbsoluts want of honesty and downright treachery an aspect or Government was being presented which was a. disgrace to Liberalism or any other ‘ism."‘ he stated. Abuses Continued _ And so the abuses had continued. While the Prime Minister was daily assuring numbers in the House that "no application had been made to the Government in the Carillon power matter," a. oompletod llfeement was presented to members of theClbinet for approval, which awardsd the franchise to “friends of the Govern- ment." Still furthti‘. he stlfll. the THE CHARLO fsbameful handling of the Seven Sis- ters power site in Marlitoba. was enough to bury the Liberal party for a generation. ‘Ihen had come the Beauhamois power deal and. as if to climax it the sale of oil lands in Alberta to a friend of the Cabinet the day before the transfer to that province of its natural resources. The 5,000 acres of oil lands so sold possess potentiall- tiea, he said, which are inesomable because of the oil sands, which are of greater value than the asphalt lake of the .West Indies for road purposes. “The wilful disposal of public lands like this is contrary to every tradition and principle of Liberalism," he de- clared. “Then the party is doomed in Canada. through the tactics of Mackenzie King in encieavoring to merge provincial Liberal forces with U.F-O. and Progressive ranks. In Ontario the Liberal party was almost an unknown factor; in Manitoba Liberalism was gone; in Saskatch- ewan it was disappearing, anti in Al- berta it was‘a. nonentity, he stated. All this was due. he declared, to Mac- kenzie King's manipulations. The Dunning budget he termed an election budget tossed up to catch the four winds. In two months oper- ation trade had dropped, revenue re- turns were down by millions and the volume of trade had declined notice- ably. The British market “p1ea" had not started Canadian wheat flowing out of Canada, and wheat growers were still uiting for relief. SLQE by Bennett Finally, he stated, he had been struck by the clear-sighted, broad- minded logic of Hon. R. B. Bennett's addresses throughout the Dominion and in the House. Although he did not know the Conservative leader personally, he had found his words definite indications of candor, hones- ty and courage. "I am prepared to trust Bennett," he stated "in this present crisis in Canadian history. The group admin- istration .of the last nine years is evidence that party government is an absolute necessity. ‘The minority tail has been wagging the majority dog for too long a time and the need for courageous, decisive action is pres- ent. ‘The only hope for this is in Mr. Bennett's success at the polls." POTATO GROWERS (Continued from page l) IANAGEIVS REPORT The report of the year's work was presented by Mr. J. W. Boulter, sec- retary of the Association. In open- ing he oommezzted on the excellent financial statement brought forward “A busines of two and three quarter million dollars in Prince Ed- ardw- Island he said. represents with out question the largest concern in the province, and your management forls that are greater posibilities for the future.“ “Our volume this year of potatoes. turnips, fertilizers, arldlnsecticides, is each higher than in 1929. The val- ue of our business in i928 was $600,- 000 less than for this pfefient yflfl-l‘. but in that yea: we handled an ab- normal volume of fertilizer-IMO) tons more than for this year. which ladded $300,000 to our turnover." More potatoes were hazdled from the 1929 crop, lvIr. Bouitsr said. than from the bumper crop of 1928. Since January, Mr. Boulter said. no oppor- tunity has been loos. to alarm of storage stock at the best price offer- ed. ‘The association was repplesentei in New York by Mr. McFarlane. who kept in close touch with the trfldc Every sale made was justifiable and an average price of $1.20 per bushel was paid for certified seed.

We cannot but com- mend the extra care of the inspect- ors, under Mr. Peppin. even though at time some oi us feel w are be- ing imposed upon, yet. notwithstand- ing the severity of the inspection. we have been faced with trouble in the south. which is not easy to ex- plain. "We are confident that the cause of the trouble did not rest ‘wrl-l us. In order to find this out. Mr. Pep- pin made two tripe to Carolina dur- in; April and May, to investigate, and to learn why in some section! theme was a poor stand from Island seed. I shall not attempt to discuss this matter with you. as Mr. Peppin can speak for himself.” m. Soultor believed that part of the cause of the trouble may .be traceable to tin fact that growers ne- gieettheir spraying. ‘We have also discoverer during the past your, that some of our i‘ FETOWN (EITARDIAN people pack their potatoes, and mar- ket them, without ever using a set of scales. ‘This is most unsatisfactory, particularly when sacks run from fifteen to twenty pounds under weight, and by actual weighing. socks‘ such as these were discovered-not only in shiphrnts made last fall, but. in carload shipments made thi-sl spring. ' "We wish the Federal Department would add to the duties of the in- spectors. one more duty-that of l 1 sacks. 1f we cannot grt them to do this we shall have to impopse this duty upon our own men who are charge at the warehouses, or at the loading points.

We have always sought to emphasize quality, and we must keep in mind that it is more rernunerative to place less volume of a. high class product, than it is to place the greater volume of an inferior productFand the for- mer practice insures repeat orders." The speaker recorded his apprec- iation of the co-cperation of the Canadian National Railway officials "Our ‘relationship with the bank has been a. vsry happy one.
