QUEBEC ELECTION

If M. Duplessis is 'defeated 'at

If M. ,Duplessis' government is.

evidence that he has made sue=

the unfortunate financial situation,
• in which the. Quebec 'Government

Gooseberries and currants are
also berries, so are.grapes, secure-,

raspberries, blackberries, and to-,

not berries=because their, seeds
are . external, They are proper
