Exploiting Canadian Patriotism A motion picture on Canada's war effort was advertised by the Vancouver Liberal As- sociation as “a graphic record of accomplish- ment which is. in great part, the work of our British Colunlhia illiuislcr, Ian hlacl-zcnzie." “This," says the Vancouver Province (ln- depcndentl “is [vlayirlg elcction politics and ex- ploiting the patriotism of Canadian men and women in this war with unblushiilg effrnutery. It is tncnn enough to arr-use a rczlctiiul quite the Contrary to that (l('<l!'('t,l by the people who have lcant thcnlsc-lvcs to such tactics." Swilent As A Clam lVith the election only a couple of days away, it would be expected that all Liberal cabinet min- isters would have been heard from. But Fish- eries bliuistcr l\llCll£1llCl, who is a lawyer from a. lumbering district-—-whcre is he? He has been as silent as a clam about his department. Seeing that not so long back he was rapped ovcr the ltnuckles by Liberal newspap- ers and at least one prominent Liberal Senator for being incompetent to hold his job, it is no wonder Mackenzie King is keeping Mr. Michaud in hiding. One Liberal paper (the Eastern Chronicle) suggested it was no use telling Mr. Michaud he should resign; he should just be "thrown out l" Yet he is still holding down one of the most important portfolios in the cabinet so far as the Maritime: are. concerned. This is the man who in conjunction with our own incompetent Liberal representatives allow- ed Sgooooo voted by Parliament to rehabilitate the lbllcry’ iurlinlty lapse uncxpcnded a cou- plc of years ago. Between them they Qidlft have the initiative to devise ways and mcans of utilizing the money properly, The re- stilt was that many additional thousands had to be expended in fishermen?» relief. Inactive Mr. Michaud got the job which should have gone to the late lamented A. E. MacLean in I935; which is just another ex- ample of the discrimination practised against this Province under Liberal rule. Manion's Youth Policy At the enthusiastic Conservative mecnng at the Sporting Club on Tuesday night, Messrs. McLurc and l-lynclman both emphasized the im- parlance of Dr. Iifanionh pmpogal to appoint a blinistry of Youth Welfare to work in co- operation with the Department of Labor and other departments concerned in the problem of uncmplovtilcut. Dr. .\lauiou's youth policy has bccn criti- cised as an election-eve gesture, but the facts speak otherwise. It was back in July, r938, un- ntédizltcly’ uficr his election as lcntlcr of the Na- tional (Ionsvrv;ttivi~ lklrty, that llr. blntliott au- nounced his intuition to establish a Department of Youth. Now, u leader oPthe National Gov- ernment party, he hafcontinued to emphasize the vital importance of such a department to be included in his cabinet if elected on March 26. In accordance with the recommendations of the Purvis-Moore Commission (ignored by thc King Government) Dr. Manion proposes to take steps to organize the Employment Bureaus of Canada and to include Youth Employment Bureaus which will work in close co-operation with agriculture, industry and commerce to assist in placing all our young men in gainful employment and to disseminate employment in- formation throughout the country. The Depart- ment, will also dcvelop and extend the existing farm placement plan, removing its present de- fects and nlalciilg it applicable to the special needs of each agricultural province. Is not this a policy well worth pursuing, even in war time? Its importance in solving our post-war problems will be still more apparent. Farm Implement Prices What about that promised reduction in farm implement prices on which Mackenzie King got imo power five _years ago? Ollr farmers know the answer! Hay mowers cost $115.50 last season as against $96.00 under Bennett. Binders $267.00 as against $31000 in 1935- Mauure sprcaders $205.00 as against $13599 at that time.

Mr. Ralstou says it is very necessary that there be “the check and curb of Opposition criticism and inquiry so that Government will, as they say, keep on the rails.” If Mr. Ralston was luorc familiar with Is- land pltllllCS he would kuQw that this theory is anathema to the Campbell Government. Moreover, it didn't keep the King Govern- ment “on the rails,” because at the first threat of Opposition criticism and inquiry hlaclteilzie King scuttled Parliament. A better “check and curb" would surely be a government constituted along non-partisan lines, which would be amenable to criticim, atld representative of all our people. — LDITORIAL NOTES — Orle- morc day. and that a statutory holiday, before our l§rl~'tt-l' clcvtii-u. t t a The $200 a day plus living and travelling ex- penses‘ candidate is mther an expensive luxury for an agricultural community. v a v a Tomorrow Easter Sunday when all good peo- ple, politicians and others, will go to church in celebration of the Resurrection w m e v “Carpet baggers", is the epithet applied in Britain to candidates who hail from here, there and everywhere in search of a seat to raise themselves by their shoe strings. w n- u- m One thing nobody can dispute Messrs, Mc- Lure and Hyndman, Drs.

At Georgetown he told the electors that it was not against the Govern- ment but Dr. Grant that the returned soldier, Mr. Jay had a just grievance for illegal dis- missal. Similarly at Souris he told the electors, in spite of Dr. Grant's assertion to the contrary that it is not the intention of either the Dr. Illaniou National Government or the Mr. Mac- kenzie King Libcral Government to enforce con- scription. ' a n- u- v blacltenzic King's lieutenants are bragging of having saved “national unity" in the Quebec provincial election. The fact is that they entered that contest to restore the unity oi Quebec Lib- eralism and to get their Liberal machine men back in the Quebec political trenches in prepar- ation for the retreat from vulnerable positions in parliamentary debate to the czuuouflagcd de- fcttscs of a general election. Anything but heroic was their threat to resign their seats at Ottawa- to quit their posts on the Liberal anti-conscrip- tion ramparts-if Dnplcssis won. a r a e One thing this election has demonstrated — the inadequacy of the radio as a substitute for public meetings. Only those vitally interested listened in. A politician took the trouble to as- certain from a cross section in a particular dis- trict the effect of a broadcast. Result -- Eleven had no radio; I6 were not interested in the speaker's views; 7 were not home at the time, 8 did not time in, 3 listened in part, one listened to the whole. And this is not merely a local experience. Sydney Post-Record says: "Report says that both major party headquart- ers at Ottawa express themselves as dumb- founded over the proven ineffectiveness of political broadcasting in this campaign, and as being resolved to revolutionize their publicity methods before another general election rolls round. Meanwhile this one has been lulled aJ- most to a comatose condition by the sad swan songs on the air which have become the order " ' ' . ...ii!i'f.’.mi.." fll.x 9i the elem vicar. is mama m; CHARLOTTETOWN GUARDIAN‘ NOTES BY TNE WAY Nod: had no mine: 1o far.

It. is one of the great reasons why Germany has entered upon anothtr conflct. The fighting was never carried into G-emaan territory and Germany did not experience the demolftlon or towns and cities and slaughter of civilians as in Belgium and France. As General Pershing, former commander of t-he American Expeditionary Force, recalled recent. ly "the armistice permitted the Ger- mans to nlarch back with colors flying and bands playing and pos- ing as vie-tunes of polivcal condi- tiorla." But for all that, the Ger- man armies were soundly defeated in 191B.
