Social Credit is Making his Election Big Bid T By ALAN DONNELLY Canadian Press Staff Writer OTTAWA iCP)-Social Credit. I political movement bornbin Can- atta in the depression, is making what may be its biggest bid for advancement in the approaching federal election. its campaign effort, begun last fall. is employing a novel method oi clectioneering by mail. The literature features assur- ances that the party, if it gains government power, would take a rzi-I'iv-ins. "'!n slow" l"1"Tn?Pll to Implementing the economic-monp tiny uieoru-s ulucli are its main hiiyls. NEW TECHNIQUE .. The letters go to a mailing list of some 5.000 in Eastern Canada. The party. with 15 members from Alberta and British Ciiumbla in the 265-seat Commons. apparently feels it is well enough known in Western Canada not to send let- iers there. It's planned to issue letters every two weeks or so-an election technique hitherto unde- deloped by any party. The mail goes out over the sig- nature of Attorney-General R. W. Bnnner of British Columbia's So- rial Credit government and chair- man of the party's organizational rommitlco to!3'the next election. The first letter ted: "Social Credit be vel that the lumwledtzc and understanding of a national financing system that will adequately protect the country's economy at all times is still in from complete. "At the some time it is realized that the mechanism of this system is so intricate and so delicate that only through a gradual process oi evaluation in the light of greater experience and understanding can it be improved." NOT CHANGING THEORIES Some published speculation has suggested this means tltn party may be backing away from its economic theories. - Not so, says party leader Solon Low. "fits a statement that we wouldn't rush in and upset things," he said in an interview here. ”This is a thing you have to be careful about." The party-Social Credit calls itself a "movement"-would con- tlnue'to stick to its theories. That theory took root in Alberta during the 1930s. It was first pre- sented in the 1935 Alberta elec- tion which elected the party as a promise of a 820 monthly ”social dividend." Basis of the theory is the claim that consu , IUII of goods-purchasing power in the form of money-lags behind pro- duclion of goods. The Social Credit prescription is to issue ”new" money direct to individuals to bal- ance consumption with production. If social credit came to power, said Mr. Low. this would be done "only at the times and in the amounts requircd.' FIGHT ON OTHER ISSUES The party will be fighting the Elmsdcile Holds Women's World Day Of Prayer Mrs. G. W. Irvine of William- atown, Ontario. one time mission- ary to Trinidad and a former mem- ber of the Dominion Board of the Women's Missionary Society of the United Church of Canada was guest speaker at the Day of Pray- er service held ln Elmsdale Unit- ed Church Friday afternoon. This group with thousands of other wo- men all around the world meditat- ed upon the theme ”Who shall sep- arate us!" The order of service this year was prepared by Mrs. Serena Vassndy formerly from Hungary. The service was conducted by Mrs. Norman Green. president of the W.M.S. auxiliary of the Unit- ed Church of Canada in Ii” 4 ' next election on other issues too. But it has stated its faith that So- cial Credit theories in themselves will appeal to voters. It is still not definite whether Social Credit will be fielding enough candidates in the next election to give it e chance-even if all were elected-to win a ma-i jority in the 265-sent Commons. l Before the last election in 1953. the party made similar assertions that it would field large numbers of candidates. A total of 7l can- didates ran. On.ly nine were en-i tered among the 193 seats east oi the Prairies: eight in Ontario and The Minister of Education's ex- cuse that it would have been use- less to appoint a Royal Commiss- ion on education because the Pro- vince has not the money to sup- port an improved educational pro- gram reflects a deplorable timid- ity of approach to a problem which grows worse and worse in Prince Edward Island as the years go by. education and its costs as if it were somewhat the same as a man debating whether he could or could not afford to build a garage for his car. The problem more nearly resembles a man considering whether he could or could not at- ford to buy milk for his small children. In the realm of so vital a matter as education the question is not can we afford to have an adequate system. but rather can we afford not to have it. We can always raise money for needs considered by a government and its people sufficiently import- ant. If we were threatened with subjugation by a foreign power. we would tax ourselves to the hill to raise money to provide adeq- uate counter measures against at- tack if that were at all possible. Can you hear anyone saying. "We don't have the money." in such a situation? Admittedly an adequate educa- tional program is not that import- ant. But it is important enough to deserve more attention than it is getting from the powers-that-be. It is important enough to deserve a more generous allocation of gov- ernment revenue. The present al- location has dwindled alarming- ly in relation to other less vital needs of the Province. The truth of the matter may be that a large percentage of our people do not realize the down-hill trend of our ieducational progress chart. and (the deplorable consequences which may attend such a trend. Apathy towards education can develop into a vicious circle. An inadequate program leads to our one in New Brunswick. The 15 So cial Credit victories came from the 62 candidates entered in the four western provinces where there are 70 constituencies. For the coming election. Mr. Low said there likely will be can- diates in every riding of the four western provinces. He said Quebec organizers have told him that, provided time and finances are available. it might be possible to run 50 candidates in Quebec's 75 ridings. Organizers in Ontario. with 05 ridings. had told him they were "going out for the whole works." In l0-constituency New Bruns- wick. where Soctal Crcdlt made a bid in the last provincial elec- (ion with no success. the party was "hopeful there will be a full slate." Ef'orl.s would be made to enter candidates in the other At- lantic provinces. iThe Scripture lesson Romans: 8: 31-39 was read by Mrs. Burton Stewart.
