He said the Average intelligent citizen could not tell the difference between the Lib- erals and the Progressive Conserv- atives. He said the only difference he could see was that one was in and the other was out. Both these parties are trying to institute progressive pro- grams and the yeason for this he said, was that the C.C.F. are setting the pace. Mr. Noseworthy said, I was very pleased to read in-the local press, that Mr,- Challies had taken such pride in the Ontario Hydro. As you well know, the hydro is one of the pub- licly owned enterprises, in this coun- try that we are all proud of. Mr, Nelson, is spending a short ',furlough at his home here. Mrs. Mel. Brown of Waterloo, was a week-end visitor with her parents. .08••••••••••••.e • .1 • A soldier risks his life, hour after hour and day after sits day, to do his duty; And a worthy soldier never q because his objective is "almost" reached. - One Victory Bond ; : : that extra bond you might buy if you would deny yourself; that small bond that may seem like a drop in the bucket to you ". is so vital that it justifies any self-denial that you can make.

He said that the changes listed in the first of this article were necessary to have full employment after the war, adequate wage& and proper security. Whether we are willing to make these changes is what we will have to de- cide. The C.C.F. maintains that it cannot be done by following the old parties or old system. If we do not find full employment and freedom from want the democracies will go , down, he charged. After the war, 1,500,000 more wil have to find jobs in -a, new economy. This may not be so difficult for a year or two, lie said; but after that it is going to be a problem. He charged that neither old parties had been able to find jobs for all except in war. Dr. W. V. Johnston of Lucknow, was the chairman of the meeting. Mr. Moffatt Jamieson, C.C.F. candidate for. the Federal riding of Bruce, also ad- dressed the meeting, as did those nominated.

No one, not even a hard-shelled toffy would suggest returning Hydro to private enterprise. If you really want the advantages of hydro in rural areas, elect a party that really be- lieves in public ovnership, not one that is forced into public ownership against its will, he advised. There are other fields into which the C.C.F. believes public ownership should be extended. One of these is the packing honse business. There is no more justification for a privately owned packing house industry in this country than for a privately owned hydro system, he declared. He charged that the old parties had failed regarding their promises tb the veterans of, the First World War and he said that even the promises of the Liberals or the Tories as set forth in their respective progiams, make ample provision for the men already return- ing from this war, Many of them, he charged, are again finding the same difficulties in establishing their right to a pension as did their fathers after the last war. There are three benefits provided for, the men and wonieb returning from the forces in the C,C.F% program that should have - priority in any pro- gram, and he named then as follows: 1. Any man declared physically fit on being 'taken 'into the army should be automatitally,, entitled to a pension should his disablement• warrant it. There should -be no question about pre-enlistment causes once a man has been accepted as medically fit. 2. Every service Irian who has seen active service overseas:At least should be en- titled to free medical and hospital treatment for the rest of his life, 3. The pension and medical benefits that are provided for the men returning from this war should be available also to the veterans of farmer Wars ' in- cluding those of the First World 'War and the South,;African war-,who are still living.
