Mr. MacDonald comparedi the long and distinguished record of public service of the Progrcs-l sivc Conservative leader, Col. Geo. Drew.‘ with the comparativelvi recent entry into public life ofl Mr. Louis St. Laurent, the leader‘ of the Liberal party and Coll Drew's chief opponent. | In discussing Dominion-Provin-i cial relations he spoke of thel poor deal which P.

Keith MacEwan, 4Q Their action has resulted in a storm of protest from some 40 pupils and their parents. Chairman of the high school board, Stafford Yanch, Flin- lon hotelmoh, states the board was justified in asking for the prin- cipals resignation. But further than that he will not go. He would give rio reason for the dismissal. "If the school board is not permitted to make its own decision in a matter of this kind, then there is no use having a school board," he says. flan/l WEMI.

He declared that one of the reasons for high taxes was the un- necessarily large number of civil servants. He stated that many; war-time appointees were kept on because the Liberal government was afraid of losing support if; it discharged them. "We need a - new government with an ener- getic leader to solve. the problem," declared Mr. MacDonald, "and in Col. Drew we have that leader." Mr. MacDonald said the Liberal administration had slipped up in their marketing of agricultural products. He. said that they were trying to put on a show but we knew, and they knew, that they were not meeting with success. To prove his point. he cited the decline in the food contracts to the United Kingdom. He said the Liberal government had tried to direct the trade to the United States to replace the losses in the British trade but without much success. If the Progressive Conservatives were elected, he said they would take steps at: once to regain the lost markets or to find new ones. Mr. Brac- ken, a sincere and well qualified man. will likcly be Minister of Agriculture if the Progressive Con- ~ servatives form the next govern- mcnt. Mr. MacDonald said that it took. a long time to convince the Liti- rral government that the Mari-l their potatoes, as the Western farmers were getting for nvheaf- and when finally the legislation was passed. the 69c a bus. which was granted was wholly inade- times needed a support price foriSUPPO quate. And although the cost of production had risen a great deal since the first floor price was guaranteed in 1947, the support i price was again only 69c in 1940. Mr. MacDonald then yvent on to review fully the Progressive Conservative policy in Social Ser- vices and veterans affairs. In reviewing Maritime pro- blems, Mr. MacDonald said that although it was a_n acknowledged fact that the Maritimes need spe- cial consideration with regard to freight rates, the three Liberal members from P. E. Island voted for the straight 20% increase. He also called attention to the unfair zoning system,,in which Queen's County enjoys advantages owr | King's and Prince in freight rates. ‘ Ife said that P. E. I. should be only one zone at the rates prevailing in Queens County. The Progressive Conservatives if elected. would supply Federal aid in developing a large scale hydro- electric system in conjunction with the construction of the Chig- necto Canal. Mr. MacDonald pointed out that during the war years, King's County had not received any grants for a project such as an airport. He said it is doubtful now if we will get a part of the Trans-Canada Highway in King's County. He also mentioned the slow system of delivery of mail at this end of the Island. Mr. MacDonald said that if he is elect- ed in this constituency, he would do all in his power to remedy these conditions. In conclusion, he said that the Liberals had grown careless and should be replaced on June. 27 by a Progressive Conservative gov- ernment led by ‘Mr. Drew. Mr. Murdock MacGowan spoke briefly in support of Mr. Niac- Donald. I-Ie called attention to the fact that although the prices for farm produce are good, the cost of production is so high that there is very little left for the farmer. He also pointed out that profitable contracts for construction of roads. etc. have not been given out to benefit the public as a whole, but have served to en- rich s comparatively small group. lVir. MacGowan felt that it was time for a change and said we had an able candidate in Mr. Mac- Donald.

(By Tom Whitney) MOSCOW, June l4 -— (AP) - l Dmitri Shostakovlch found much to ‘ criticize and even more to smile at ion his recent visit to the United States. , Writing in "Crocodile", the So- iviet humor magazine, the famed iRussian composer registered his dislike of New York's skyscrapers. ‘ “From above," he wrote, "they flocked like immense pencils which ‘some mischievous giant had stuck into the ground. The dismal bar- ‘rack-like height of these buildings ‘docs not inspire, but humiliates a person. Shostakovich expressed surprise at the way American concert-goers dress. He said: "I went: to a symphony concert under the direction of the well- known orchestra leader L. Stokow- ski. The program .. .. had no inter- est, although the ochestra played very well. “I was astonished. .. .that the majority of those in the hall sat slumped down in the chairs, in coats and hats, although the vesti- bule of the hall had a coat and hat- check counter." Shostakovich did not like the manners of American newspaper reporters. He described how in n Berlin hotel room he was awaken- ed by a photographer who entered the room and was about to snap his picture in bed. Note On Montreal Fashion Show MONTREAL, June 14 —(CP)— Clothing manufacturers and de- signers being what they are-al- ways ahead of the girls-the new duds being shown during Mont- real's fashion week have to do with autumn-winter wear despite the ‘current heat wave. The tip is some fefllllrfl aren't so different from the late 20's. For one thing cloche. Fashion writers reported today it is not as "clochey" .15 it wgg 1n the late 20s but it's unmlstakenbiy a hell-like topper and nlong with it came a camel hair coat. The duster coat was another old- ilmfl‘ bPOiII-Iht out in refurbished form as compared with the horse- lessi carriage days. Some collar treatments appeared to have come right out of the old picture frames, bonnet: with ties under the chin and all sorta of pretty lady touches found lii the llntype era. One fashion writer reported: “Fashions are gayer than for years, more wearable, more versatile," which is about what was said dur. inf! last year's Montreal Fashion Industries show. Still there was plenty to attract attention. Fell relnweiir features fsiiiel, Iabardlnea, corduroya and latina in glowing colors.
