Do hot fail to hear these able speakers discuss the questions of the day. Ladies especially invited. All Welcome, Where Do You Stand 1. Why in a period of hard times waszit necessary for the present gov ernment to spend, in 193'2, of $56,000,000 more than vious government spent in the sum the pre- 1930? 2. Are you in favor of travagant policy "which in two years of the Bennett ment, has added $209,000,000 to the national debt? the ex- the last Govern- ■ 3. Why, under the, Bennett gov ernment, have we. had steady in creases of taxation, while under the previous government every budget brought reductions? 4. How has an increased tariff on implements, fertilizers, boots and shoes, wear- etc., benefitted ' the agricultural motor cars, ing apparel, farmer? approve of the increas- other restrictions 5. Do you ed tariffs and ■which have forced up the price of gasoline to a point 5 to 7 cents above_the level of American prices? 6. Do you believe in the policy of trade restriction in force since 1930 under which our exports have been almost cut in two and the export, of agricultural products has fallen from $368,000,000 to $198,000,0.00? 7. In view of the decline in the export of farm products, do you not feel that Mr. Bennett’s ’“blasting policy’’ has been a failure and that other means must be employed to secure markets for the farmer? 8. Why should it now require a sum equivalent to over 75' per cen^. of our total exports of Canadian products to pay the expenses of the Federal Government, when less than half that amount (34.7 per was required in 19 30? 9. Do. you approve of the of the Bennett Government creasing the sales tax from cent.) action in ln- - „ . . 1 per cent, to 6 per cent, when Mr. Ben nett himself, in 1928, opposed the sales tax and referred to it as the poor man’s income tax? 10. What remedy has Mr. Ben nett for unemployment in view of the fact that , the remedies lie has tried have only made matters worse and the unemployment situation is now worse than it ever was before? <5n all the-se questions my own position ‘ price of farm products during the last two years has been almost cut in two—the price of manufactured products remains high—held up by the tariffs imposed by the present government. There is no remedy save one—the present excessive- ta riff rate must be cut sharply—A.

Dr. Manion tried to say something about it. Mr, -Stev ens says it’s a secret, Would you suggest that something of which the people have no knowledge be brought in. I would gay not. If there is good to come out of the Confer ence the Liberals will 'be behind it. And if there is any credit coming to the Conservatives they should get it, for they can’t take credit for anything else. It would have been more sportsman-like if this by-elec tion had been held un until after the next session when the report will be debated. The people will ■will then find out the results. It is the Bennett government that is on trial. Its record is to be examined and analyzed, The promises Bennett made at the last election should be discussed, Hi$ is a one-man gov ernment; Bennett controls and dom inates it; he is the Cabinet.

In referring to the Hamilton ^By election Mr. Spotton said the Liberals couldn’t get a candidate and that they had to gather too many factions to gain support. ■ Mr. Spotton spoke in the rain and by his forceful manner held his hearers.
