fiPrnmise Versus Performance

l Government promises, on the eve of elections, always t have a suspicious flavor. They are looked upon as catch votes --frequently they are nothing more. For four years the Lib- _ _ eral government has not been in a performing mood. Now- ' when votes are wanted—there is no limit to what they are ‘ willing to do. Just “ask and ye shall receive.”

p when King W115 Seeking power; the King a saint would be; a When he became Prime Minister, the divil a saint was he.

r When (Sir) Robert Borden, Opposition Leader, addressed the people of this Province he promised that ii returned to l power he would promptly remove our winter transportation difficulty. We sent members from Queens County to support l him and within two months after accepting office the glad news was wired to us that his Cabinet had decided to establish a. Car Ferry system and standardize our railway. Both were proceeded with with all possible despatch and at the first ses- nion of parliament he added without comment $100,000 to our annual subsidy. This is Promise and Performance.

When Mackenzie King addressed this Province, in the last election campaign, he dwelt at length upon the Duncan Com- mission, fluently pledging his Government to fully implement that report. Apart from voting the interim “payment on ac- count," which he could not avoid, that report has been pidgeon holed and is only now, after four years, being paraded for elec- tion purposes.

In his opening campaign speech, at Brantford, lieboasted of returning the natural resources to the west-—a hundred. per cent. (if not more) fulfillment to the Prairie Provinces--and a “Satisfactory" settlement in the Maritime Provinces.” Mr. 'A. E. McLean, l\i.P.. stated in his speech, in the Capitol Thea- tre last Saturday, that “The. Duncan Report has been 100 per cent. fulfilled.”

Premier King declares that our case has been satisfactor- ily disposed of; Mr. McLean says that it is a hundred per cent.

This is Promise without Performance.

But the King Government are after votes. They will of-

‘ fer any bait to catch what they imagine are suckers. After

doing nothing for four years the Prime Minister had the aud-

acity to give as his reason for taking Dr. Cyrus Macmillan in

the cabinet that he wanted the benefit of his knowledge of the

Duncan report to assist the Government in implementing the Commission's recommendations.

=‘ Could there be a more gigantic bluff or a more shameful ruse adopted to deceive a people? Dr. Cyrus Macmillans help, forsooth, to complete an already “100 per cent. satisfactorily" disposed of obligation. What an lsult to an intelligent elector- ate? What a deliberate attempt to catch votes with a bait of four year old rusty promises. Wouldrvt it be more sensible to

elect a party which would respect its solemn pledges.
