The men who made Confeder- ation had been willing to submerge Ilarlilillfislllp in the national inter- eib. being men of stature instead of mere partv politicians. Ml‘. King ad accused him of scuttllng the Conservative Party in groposing a National Government. ut Dr. Manion flatly denied it. Country First "I'm loading the Conservative Party in it's best traditions," he said, "placing the country first and the party second. and rising in the emergency above petty miltlcal ambitions." While Mr. King posed as a great defender of democracy on one hand. on the other he stopped broadcasting of such meetings as his, had “gagged" Parliament and was censoring speeches broadcast from studios. King Inconsistent Mr. King's whole history was a record of similar incons tencles. of promises unfulfilled. as though a promise without action solved a problem. Mr. Manion claimed Mr. King “promised to protect the com- mon people, but was always align- ed with the blg interests." He charged Mr. King was both mentally and temperamentafy un- suited to handle the affairs of this country in a time of crisis. His record was one of futility. incom- petence, unemployment, lack of defence -although fir. King was boasting he had seen tlie war com- ing for three years. Canadians today were actually fighting for their lives and liber- lief. for if Hitler won the liberties Br tishers had enjoyed for 1,000 years would be short-lived. He at- tributed to Mr.Kinga“consplracy" against those liberties in his policy towards political broadcasting and 0n March 26. the people of Can- ada should make clear that they condemned the scuttllng of those basic liberties by Mr. King or any- body else. National Government Aims Dr. Manion briefly sketched the wartime aims of his proooscd Na- tional Government. as well as some of the stops it would lake to deal with the ‘Post-War sltuilon. When the country could snc-nd $l.000.000 c. day on war it. would also have l-o spend money to make the coun- try's youth good Canadians. Urging revision of mining taxa- tion.

An excess profits t x had been tried out in South A rica bill: hnd been abandoned because of the de- cline in number of mining com- panics.
