Therefore, I speak without much thought in my place in the national scene af- ter polling day. I ask you to be- lieve that. because I want you, in these days of national danger, to think without like or dislike of me, of what. I tell you.

Mr. King's Forlorn Cause “When I speak of my deep desire to serve you. I do not intend upon that basis to suggest any difference between Mr. King and myself. He also wishes your welfare. He has been long ln public life. l-Ic might fairly claim a. release from it. As- surcdly he has earned your com- mendation and your kindly fare- wcli. But he comes before you once again as the leader of Liber- alism, asking for your support. That is a tribute to his patriotism. And yet you must deny him. 11hr he comes as thc leader cf a. party once great. whose greatness was nurtured by an economic state of things to which we long since have bid goodbye. He comes as the rapt student of an economic philewllhl! which todays fierce struggle has rent and tossed arlde. Ha comes as the leader of a. oausc for which the bells have tolled. He comes as the vrill-if-tlua-wlsp who quite unwit- tingly will lure you on and on into the morass which waits for those who have eye! and sec not." Dimculties and dangers had in- creased and intensified throughout the world. Mr. Bennett continued. and while thc means of ending them had not been revealed, the means to safeguard Canada from them were at hand and - the people would bc asked to pass upon them. The Prime Minister referred brief- ly to his illness of last spring inso- far as it "was the cause of delay and confusion in the development of the government's reform pro- mm... "Meanwhile? Ml‘.

There was uniformity among them only in the realisation by governments uu _ ut thc world that the depression would ncvct cure itself and. that salvation re- quired government intervention. “So governments have intervened. And I believe that i! governments had stood uldo, the depression would have grown into an uncon- trollable fury which mllhf. well have brought to ftc knee; our very civilisation. "And no fair-minded person will say that governments have not done much, simply because much that governments have done has been ill-considered and ineffective. There never yet was action which was faultless. There never yet was conflict without casualties. Those who in the last five years have not been called won to bear tbeheat and burden of the day would do well to moderate their censure and abridge their indictments. and in the time thus saved to give some little thought to what they might have donc had they themselves been in the firing line," said the Prime Minister. A HARD FOUGHT BATTLE "For, in the last flvs years, this has been a battle, believe me, bo- tvvcen the depression and the gov- ernments of ovary self-respecting and courageous country in the world. Fair play to those govern- merits, fair play to your own gov- ernment, my friends. We do not ask sympathy or thanks. We claim no right to either; just fair play. And to be fair. Canadians first of all must reach an understandingof what has happened throughout the world in the last five years." If his government had not rc- turned Canada to prosperity it had saved the Dominion from “the icr- riblc adversity which threatened" and carried it through the first stages of a permanent reform pro- cram. Mr. Bennett continued. No government in the world had done more than that. I-Ie then turned to the political picture. "Mi! 9191158. 1n these hazardous days, it is the duty of those charged with the conduct of gov- ernment to allay alarm, to com- pose disturbance, to do everything possible to maintain the spirit of equanimity and tolerance as thc best assurance against strife.

We have bought and paid for security and for peace, and we mean to have them. "Mr. King has told you that. should the question of Canada‘s participation in a European war arise, that question would bc de- termlned only by Parliament. "But, as Mr. King must know, under the law that question can only be determined by Parliament. Sc that his statement adds nothing new to the discussion. ty stands for Canadian rights. and stands against the economic ag- gression of any foreign country. So also in war. We will not be em- broiled ln any foreign quarrel where the ‘rights of Canadians are not involved." Where Docs King Stand? "Now that the issue has been raised and the Conservative party has declared its stand upon it, you have again the right. to demand that Mr. King and the Liberal par- ty say where they stand upon that issue. The country awaits that statement." Improvement in world conditions would mean more satisfactory con- ditions at home. Mr. Bennett went} on, speaking of the state of agri- culture and industry. But if world conditions did not improve it re- mained for Canadians to improve their own state if possible. That was a practical question to which those who would rule should seek the answer rathe than spending time debating ma tcrs unrelated to the immediate problems.

ESSENTIAL MEASURES “let us now examine the ways in which we can safeguard our high stands-rd of living and give it uni. versal application. ‘These are pep- hapl the most important of them: (l) By returning agriculture and industry to prosperity. - (2) By decreasing our burden o debt. ' . (ii) By restoring the labor man- iret to a sound condition. (4) By removing unnatural and unjust inequalities. (5) By better utilization of our natural resources. _(6) By better distribution of tho products of agriculture and of in- dually. . (7) By strengthening the Con- Rdellllflll. and so increasing our power to work together to achieve these purposes. . Agriculture and Industry "I will first begin with the ques- tion of how we can return agricul- ture and industry to prosperity. "That can be done by protecting the hOm: market against unfair competition; which means, essent- ially. by protecting the standard of living of the workman against at- tack by countries where wages are infinitely below ours and where currencies are operating on a. lower level than ours. I give you the case of Japan. It is a practical illus- tration, and a. present one. "Japan Amposed a prohibitive and discriminating supertax against our exports because, forsooth, this gov- ernment had taken action to cn- sure that the standard of living of our people should not be assailed or destroyed by any country with wages so low and with currency so depreciated that Canada could not fairly compete with its products in an unprotected market. Protection Against Japan “The supertax imposed by Japan was solely to force the removal of these oorcective measures whlchthe government of Canada was. by the national interest, compelled, to take. Japan, in other words, com- bats the efforts of this government to protect the standard of living of our people. Therefore, on that point. this government joins issue with the government of Japan. And to maintain the principle for which we rightfully contend, this government after patiently at- tempting to persuade Japan by other means, has now notified that country that unless the unwar- rantable and prohibitive duties against Canadian imports is re- moved. the government of Canada will serve notice to terminate the treaty of commerce and navigation. and will take such other steps as may be deemed necessary to pro- tect thc national interest. This is u rrinclple, a great and just prin- ciple. for which we Canadians fight. We will not surrender in this fight. “Our Liberal friends will bewail this action of the government, tak- en in the interests of Canadians and in the interests of no one else. They will talk about the wisdom of lowering our ‘tariffs to Japanese goods. Thcy have talked about it. Listen to this: Mr. King at Wood- stock on August 13th. 1935. was re- ported by the press as saying that by raising tarifls, the Bennettgov- ernment has restricted the ex- change of goods and increased un- employment. It has lcd to the closing of foreign markets against Canada by such retaliatory action as Japan has just taken. "If you elect Mr. King, then you will know what to expect when Ja- pan demands. Again I quote from Mr. King's Woodstock speech, as reported by the p105! ‘Japan was buying from us four times as much as we buy from her. yct we find the government prepared to fight rath- er than to deal in goodwill.’ If you clect Mr. King. you will know what to expect from Japan when Mr. King bows i the will of that ag- gressive country." The Prime Minister advised his hearers to refer to the Liberal lead- cr's speech to assure themselves he had quoted Mr. King correctly. Such a. surrender would not sell Canadian goods to Japan or else- where. Kim: Statement Dctrlmcntal to ' Canada's Interests "Now herc is another aspect of the matter, which l mention re- luctantly and only because you are i entitled to full knowledge of this‘ critical situation. By what he has said. Mt. King ha< strengthened Japan's hand. lie has aided and abetted Japan in her demand that we lowcr our protective measures. l-le has encouraged Japan to maln- tain her discriminatory dvjles against us. To scrvc a political pur- pose, he has failed in service to Canadian interests. Japan, believ- ing-and certainly hoping. thatthe ett Government would be de- feated, dared io flout it and at- tack your interests. knowing that with a, change in governments it could safely continue to do so. Be- cause then Mr. King would be out " down our protective walls so that the comm ' ' invaders of this country might S07E21) in safely over the ruins of them. "This is a grave charge that I have nude. Thereforf. l repeat it. If Mr. King's friends excuse him and say he did not mean it in that way. is not this condemnation com- plow) ‘This is one ‘of the great issues bcfora you for decision.

Ministers Pose _at Ottawa- curing trade agreements did not depend solely upon Canada's will- ingness to reduce tariffs but upon the willingness of other Bill/Em‘ merits to reduce theirs. Nations of the world were out for economic self-sumclency. talking free trade but practicing economic nationalism. Whether this. was right. or wrong it was a fact, Mr. Bennett declared. Canada's voluntary reduction of tariffs would not force other coun- tries to do likewise. “This -ha.rd- pressed country must look after it- self flrst." said the Prime Minis- ter. "in this world where nations have re-psoclaimed the ancient iulc —‘Each for himself and the devil take the hindmcstf" l U. S. Trade It had been said‘ by his oppon- ents, Mr. Bennett continued, that the government was not making sufilcient efforts to secure a trade agreement with the United States. "It was said." he went on, "that we had a brief for the industrial- ists and didn't care a hang about the agriculturists." Ever since the government had been in ofllce it had dons every- thing possible to increase trade with United States. When in i934 the president of the United States had secured from congress power to negotiate trade agreements, »the government of Canada had taken steps to secure the advantages of- fered in that market. The nature of the Dominicnb proposals to Un- ited States would be made public Monday, Mr. Bennett premised. When the Liberal government was in power from 1921 to 1930, "in the days when freer trade was eas- ily possible," no trade agreements were concluded but Canada had lost the United States market, the Prime Minister declared. He urged his listeners to turn a deaf ear to free trade talk and see that Can- ada was not “victimized by the ap- plication of some antiquated theory which will make us the laughing stock of all the nations."

Stephenson As- sociated Press Staff Writer) HYDE PARK, N. Y., Sept. 6- Satisified that the "basic program" of the new deal is- substantially completed, President Roosevelt cell about tonight-to lend an example to the United States cl today's declaration for a "breathing spell." In exchange of letters with Roy W. Howard. publisher of the Scripps-I-Ioward newspapers, the President noted the publisher's statement that ‘many business men who once gave you sincere support are now, not merely hos- tile, thcy are frightened." . “This administration," replied the President in a long letter, "came into power pledged to a very considerable legislative pro- pletion and the ‘breathing spell‘ of which you speak is here—very decidedly so. "I take it that we are not merc- ly seeking but getting the recovery of confidence, not merely the con- fidence of a small group, but that basic confidence on the part of the mass of our population; in rhc soundness of our economic life and in our honesty and justice of the purposes of its economic rules and methods. In lmusual good spirits at his regular press conference at homa today, Mr. Roosevelt told news- papermcn he had about concluded work on the legislation of the last session of Congress and indicuteil he was looking forward to the ‘breathing spell’ prescribcc for tho nation. Smiling away further about fears of business men, left an impression he would occupied perhaps for a while quieting some nerves. inqui l)‘ c be in REPUBLICAN REACTIO.‘ WASHINGTON, Sept. 6-—A R0 publican cry of "campaign prom- ises" today picrccd the mingling of praise and criticism evoked by President Roosevelt's, statement that business might lock forward to a legislative "bran-thing spell." Out of the storm of clcbato looscrl by the assertion came tlie interpretation by some close ob- servers that it meant a let-up in new deal reforms at least until after next year's pi-csidcntial cam- paign. Dcmocrais wci-c quick to praise the decision. Republicans leaped to the attack. Business comment was varying but the market went up. The obscrvaticn of chairman Henry P. Fletcher of the Repub- lican National Committee came near sounding a. keynote for mem- bers of his party who commented. He said: "The President has opened the 1936 campaign with a new set of assurances and promises." Some Republicans, too, men- tioned that the statement did not refer to a balanced budget. In other quarters it was suggested that the President might bc sav- ing this to be dealt with later. Appointed Lihief- Registrar For F.C.A. Act UITAWA, Sept. 0.-Lt.-Col. G. S.
