' In the Legislature last night, amid a. ghastly silence from Government benches, Premier Campbell and his cob- leagues sat and heard two of their party supporters de; vote most of their time in the Budget debate to a scathinw analysis of the difierence between the Liberal elcctio platform and the Government's performance la ofllcc. The revolting members were Messrs. W. I‘. Alan Ste j art, First Queens, and Mr. Wade Hughes, Fifth Kings. ’ Taunted with the reminder of the party’s pledge to balance the budget ANNUALLY Hon. T. W. L. Prowse,» the only Government spokesman last night, said he did not recall that any such promise had been given. The pledge, as he recalled was to balance it before the end ofll their term. 5 Other comments from disgusted Messrs Stewart an Hughes: w’ “The balanced budget is a will-of-tho-wisp like the? phantom that we have seen oif our coast recently. The, farther we go after it the farther it goes.” “If Mr. Lea’s financial programme had been carried into effect we would be on a sound financial standing-no in the case we are in now!” ~ “The course we are proceeding on leads to a repudi ation of debts and to a condition of affairs epitomized by the Farmers Creditors Arrangement Act.” ‘The Fishermen’s Loan Board of which the PresidcnQ, of the Executive Council is chairman, exceeded their ad-f‘ ministrative estimate by one hundred per cent.” 1 “Public Works expenditures may he all right. but the blue-books do not indicate they are.” “If we go on as we are doing in a very few years, . whatever Government is in power in, this Province will find not only the treasury empty but the credit of the Province exhausted.” These and other pointed criti- cisms were iniorlarded with mild- er speeches from other members. Mr. Savllle led ofl when the House met after recess last night. He was followed by Mr. Stewart, Hon. Mr. Prowse, lvilr.
