The Leader of the Oppositional -to -fie
R. B. Hanson, led off in the Budget
Debate on Monday. When. all parties:
ere agreed that an all-out,war effort
is essential, there is little criticism
of the budget or the grounds of
severity, ,the only quarrel being yeltIsi
the method rather than the objective
of the °budget. The New DemotraeY
gtoup, represeneed by Victor Quelch,
(N. D. Acadja)heved an amendment
• which. emoletlited• to. a vete of want of
confidence, eonserveitive leader Han-,

• THE .PRESS AND
THE ADVERTISER'
. Theirelationship between the news-
paper and its advertisersis as • im-
portant to the newspaper'' reader .as it
is to the publisher. Newspapers are
sometimes .unfairly accused of beingsabservient to the advertisers who
provide the revenue 'upon which the
newapaper exists. This erroneous im-
pression. has been gathered because
the Average person • knows that the.
newspaper must'. have 'advertising to
exist, :and therefore if hehappens
to be et a suspicious turn, of mind.
he concludes that the advertiser must
set .the. policy of the newspaper-.
• Not only is such a suggestion un-
true, but is is unfair both to the
newspaper and to the advertiser,
• Piactically every publisher will tell
• you that few • merchants ever at-
• tempt to dictate the policy 'of the
newspaper. They may express 'oppos-
itionto some stand the newspaper
has taken, !but few :would go so fare
as to threaten the newsPaper • with.
withdravval of bueiness, if that policy
was not changed to conform with the
:wishes of the advertiser. The success-
ful merchant is usually successful -be-
cause an honourable man, and
few would stoop to the level of threat-
ening a °newspaper because its pub-
lisher had different ideas on a giveh
• questien the:n the advertiser.
The relationship hetWeen'the adver-
tiser and the newspaper is similar to
that: which exists' betweeirEi' merchant
and his eustomer, only in thh4 case
the publisher is the merchankand the,
advertiser the customer. The adver-
tiser purchases space in the news-
paper because be has a story to tell
the readees of the ;Japer. He use
advertieing, tts alegitiniate means of
drawing custom to 'his store: If the
newspaper eontinues to provide the
• service required and Eidequate%retinW
for the inveCtment, the mei-eh:Intl
,continueS to Advertise : When he feels'
he, is not getting Piet Ntalue he ceases

ship which emiste between env othey
Merchant find his • eustomer. So lone
•,ae the tuStomer feelshe is Oetting

he 'continues to he a customer. When

Dear Sir: •

to enter a strong Protest to the Coun-
ty Council of., Bruce, for What I claim
a raw deal handeththe. people of RIP -
ley and Huron Township by the Coun-
ty' Highway Comniission, in regards •
to the paving of sideroad 15 from nip -
ley to &ovine/el highway 9 'utlieemise
known as the Durham Road:
During the past suninter eeitain

few if any. of the business men ofthe
