Liberal Party Programme

a

Following the announcement of Monday's minion election results, u Liberal worker was lfiard to boast that his party hadwon without lfiving to make any election promises. Mr. KING, in his last broadcast before the election. 1' t color to this assumption when he denounced t e other parties for making promises. The fact l‘ that apart from the backdoor campaign of Iiiberal candidates in which promises were as thick as blackberries, the ‘party federally stands

pledged to an ambitious programme which it is

flow in duty bound to implement. This pro- gramme was indorsed by Liberal associations in

Q1 parts of Canada and unanimously approved

Liberal members in the last House of

wuunons. ‘

‘.2 “Prosperous trade and industrial conditions"

}regardless of world depression which Mr.

‘infirm; and his followers persistently ignored in

griticising the BENNETT administration-stands

in the forefront of Liberal party pledges. These ganditions are to be brought about “through

‘Epund and tried methods.”

1 Unemployment, according to the Liberal

alien’, is Canada's most urgent national problem.

e party is pledged to deal with it “through a

fepresentative national commission cooperating

with the provinces, municipalities and other gencies in administration of relief and an en-

deavour to provide work." . ' As a long-range policy a constitutionally

valid system of unemployment insurance should lie enacted in the Liberal view. “As rapidly as financial conditions permit," old age pensions are

E; be expanded into a general scheme of social

insurance including health insurance, -

Trade policies are the key to the Liberal party's recovery plans. A Liberal government would liberate and expand external trade in the belief that on foreign trade depend industrial and commercial recovery, the platform says. It would also liberate internaltrade by ending "artificial" price control and price-fixing. ' _ Mr. KING and his party also stand pledged to the following policies and measures among othcrs l

Revision of the British North America Act by agreement between the provinces and co-oper- -ation with the provinces/in the promotion of policies designed to hasten recovery;

Development of primary industries by re- duction in the costs of instruments of production and by stability and uniformity in la\v and administration relating to mining and other basic industries;

State assistance in the marketing of natural products;

Restoration of control by the state over cur- rcncy and credit through reconstitution of the Bank of Canada;

Maintenance of the integrity of the Canad- ian National Railways as a publicly owned and controlled utility; ~

Sympathetic and generous consideration of all problems relating to war veterans;

Democratization of industry through poli- cies seeking to give to workers and consumers a larger share in the government of industry;

Restoration of responsible government, re- assertion of personal liberty and the right of free speech and free association.

.. The Liberal party platform also calls for measures of electoral reform and an inquiry into federal, provincial and municipal costs of gov- ernment. It seeks furtherance of international peace and the work of the League of Nations and declares for “a more equitable distribution of wealth which will have regard to human needs, to the furtherance of social justice and the pro- motion of the common good."

Agricultural Clubs

The provision of special grants by the Dominion Department of Agriculture to Class A and Class B Fairs and to sununer and winter shows for junior activities has afforded an opportunity for a great number of club members

. and, other. juniors to participntenin competitive

and educational programmes at a great many exhibitions. With the approach of the Royal .Winter Fair at Toronto, at ‘which time the jlflllllal national club contests will be conducted, interest in provincial elimination" contests for the selection of teams to compete at the Royal Winter Fair has reached a high pitch. The con- aesrs at Toronto will be heldron November 19 § next under the direction of the Canadian Council ; op Boys’ and Girls’ Club Work, and the com‘ f peting club teams will be guests of the Council i at Toronto for five days. ‘ _' Thirty-two teams, of twdmembcrs each, representing all of the Provinces, areex cted ‘to participate in the contests at the Royal inter Fort under six projects-dairy cattle, beef cattle, svgitttpoultry, seed grain and seed potatoes. fiddly“ will. have earned the‘ right to compete to, first bythavipg attained the highest n; in the local club and then by having the ‘ovihcial elimination contest.‘

“As ‘Canadians read United States com- ments and discuss the election with Americans," says Canada's Weekly," they are both amazed and amused at the ignorance which many in the States, who ought to know better, display in regard to Canadian matters. It is astonishing, for instance, to note how many otherwise intelli- gent folk in the United States apparently believe that Canada is run from Downing Street, and some have, oddly enough, added colour to the notion by finding significance in the coincidence that the Dominion is changing its Governor- General while the elictign in progress.”

The unfortunate part. about. food causing eczema ls that some of our most. nourishing foods, rich also in vitamins and minerals, are as likely to cause eczema in those sensitive to them as foods with poor fuel, min-

eral and vitamin value.

The point then la that there ls a family sensitlveness of the skin to various foods and other substances and that the substances causing ce- zema in anv particular case should be searched for. Just as ls the cause of any other ailment.

Summerside Courtesy

(Halifax Chronicle)

Strangers moving from place to place where different regulations prevail, are not always zware of the rules obtaining tn the parttzu- lar locality in which they may happen to find themsel es, and not infrequently have complained, not without reason, at. the rather harsh treatment which they have received through the unconscious neglect of traffic laws. It has sometimes even been alleged that advantage has been taken of the touristic obvious ignorance of the rules, to swell the local treasuryb finances. References have not been at all uncommon m the press of some of the provinces, rcbuklng such a practice.
