Today Nelson's flagship is berthed in dry- dock at Portsmouth where it stands as a fight- ihip H.M.$. Victory, miral Horatio ing symbol of His Majesty's Navy. Mortally struck by a sharpshooter from the top of an enemy ship, Nelson is said to have that his face and decorations be cov- requested ered by a handkerchief so that his might not be noticed by the crew. He was taken below where he received the news that l5 of the enemy ships had surrendered. "Thank God l have done my duty," were the last words that came from his lips. The "Nelson touch" is immemorially asso- ciated with the British naval tradition, and it is fitting that this anniversary of his greatest victory should fall during the celebration of Navy Week in Canada. As will be noted from an ad- vertisement in today's issue, a special CBC broad- cast has been arranged for this evening between i030 and ll.30, Atlantic time, which has been sponsored by the Navy League of Canada in co- operation with the Toronto Musical Protective Association. Also in traditional Naval style, Oct. 23rd. is being observed at H.M.C.S. Queen Charlotte as "Come Aboard" day, when the pub- lic is cordially invited to meet the officers and men of our own Naval Division. This not only affords an opportunity of inspecting the train- ing quarters and equipment but of learning some- thing about the peacetime work of the Royal Canadian Navy and of showing public interest and appreciation in what is being done. Rosthern By-Eiection The Federal constituency of Rosthern Saskatchewan was established under the Redis- tribution Act of i933. Since then it has been held continuously by Mr. Walter Tucker until he resigned to contest the provincial election as Liberal leader. The by-election to fill the va- cancy will be held October 25. lin the Federal ‘general election of i945 Mr. Tucker won with a vote of 6,898, the C.C.F. getting 4,678, the Progressive Conservative 1,299 and the Social Credit candidate 792. The campaign, now in its final week, is being fought with great vigor not because a Liberal defeat would endanger the Government at Ottawa but because it will test the strength of protest feeling in Saskatchewan as well as of C.C.F. policies and record. The C.C.F. candidate, Mr. ‘Peter Makaroff, K. C., has placed it on the basis of on appeal to the protest vote quite plainly and the C. C. F. party leaders have indicated his election would be o declaration of disapproval of freight rate increases, the cost of form implements and in- creased cost of living, as well as of Government policies on livestock, coarse grains and on in- come tax regulations. The Liberal candidate, Mr. W. A. Boucher, has a long record in municipal affairs and in his speeches has given support to Liberal policies for agriculture, vocational training, national health insurance, extension of P.F.R.A. and P.F.A.A. and admission of refugee immigration, He has urged old age pensions at 60 for women and 65 for men, a fair deal in freigth rates and offered strong opposition to further socialization and tc Socialist and Communist activities. The Social Credit candidate is Mr. George Bielhortz, who ran in the provincial election, coming second to Mr. Tucker and beating,the C.C.F. entry. Rosthern being a farming constituency, election will in some measure register farm re- acticn to C.C.F. labor and socialist policies as well as to the Government's record. i on... in...
