many they could not eat it because
it was too dear.

Millan, Mr. Radei’ declared, that the I a .tlie. 1101136 aUci Quite
deceased man was a farmer and d^61.61^ tlung to be a member ot
he (the .speaker) felt that it was! only right that a farmer should Te-1
present South Huron. “This riding'
is chiefly composed of farmers”
stated the speaker. “You need a
farmer, one who understands the
farmer’s problems. I have been a
farmer all my life, as was my father
and grandfather. The candidate
went on to relate that he had been
a member of Hay township council
for 12 years, part of which time he
had served as reeve and this year
was, warden of the county.
Geo. Spotton, member of the fed
eral house tor North Perth next took
the platform on Mr. Raders’ behalf.
Raising Ministers’ Salaries
“Somebody has said that the pre
ent cabinet is one of millionaires
working for millionaires,” said the
speaker. “It has been said that one
of the first actions of the new gov
ernment was to raise the salaries of
the cabinet ministers. Under the last
government the members of the cab
inet were supplied with expensive,
cars which carried the cabinet min
isters their families, and friends all
ovei’ the country. The country paid
for’the gasoline and "oil, for chauf
feur’s salaries and for chauffeur’s uniforms. 'SStons as high as $3,000,
$4,00’0. and $5,00'0 were spent for
these services* V/heii Mr* Boniiett
Xook over office he determined that
this expense would be wiped out^and
toe allowed the Cabinet ministers
$2,0'00 each for travelling expenses,
leaving them to choose whatever
method they desired. In this manner
Mr. Bennett saved the country be
tween $45',000 and $50,000 a year.
Mr. Spotton again referred to the
farmers’ delegation-.to Ottawa, of
which he had the honey of introdu
cing to the
had reserved
a half of his
IfiUSed to go
meeting, but
glad to get the gathering’s briefs.
He expressed disappointment and
said he understood the meeting was
to submit its briefs, ’ %
Oiii Higher Taxes
. "You have been told that your
taxes have been higher during the
last couple of years,” continued Mr.
Spotton; “But your taxes have been
no higher than your township Or
municipal authorities have made
them. Not one dollar that you have
(Continued on page 2)
It is one thing to be a farmer and
a member of the House and quite
the cabinet.
“The Government did not dare to
make the agreements of the con
ference as they will become known
in their entirety the issue of the
by-election in South Huron.” said
Mr. King, asserting that the by-elec
tion was called for a few days be
fore .Parliament was to meet pur
posely to avoid discussion on the
text of the agreements to be tabled
in Parliament.
"They ask you, nieawhile, to vote
in the dark, and to vote solely on
what they tell you the agreements
will mean.
Mr. King touched on the Cana
dian National Railway; the Confer
ence in England in 1980; the tar
