Progressive Conservatives Continued from Page One Following the rag -tag band came a procession of party stalwarts carrying the highways minister on a sort of four -man buckboard, from which he was hoisted to the stage. Lloyd Ackert of Holyrood, who had arranged the program, introduced campaign manager ' DeWitt Miller of Wingham who outlined the tasks which remain for party workers on and before election day. lle expressed his conviction that as long as the PC supporters are willing to work hard, the election will be won by George McCutcheon. Community singing was led by Bill Conron with Reg. Bitton at the piano. CANDIDATE SPEAKS George McCutcheon express - his appreciation for the ex- 3ellent turnout and stated it was a very definite sign of the en- thusiasm which pervades the Progressive Conservative sup- porters. in Huron -Bruce. He said the Liberals have been crying for a change of govern- ment, but contended that they have not made any clear state- ments about what Ontario should turn to. The Liberal leader, he said , promises that sales taxes will be modified, but he has not suggested how this policy will agree with his other declar- ations of ever increasing public expenditures. The speaker also pointed to Ontario's comparatively low un- employment figures , the suc- cess of the Trade Crusade, the fact that personal incomes in this province are considerably higher than the national aver- age. Concluding, Mr. Mc- Cutcheon said the platform of the Robarts government is to continue the brand of first-rate administration which is already well known to the electors. His final remarks were to in- troduce the guest speaker of the evening. ENVY OF ALL Mr. MacNaughton referred briefly to the department of which he is minister. He said that Ontario's roads are so good that they are actually envied by many other countries. He said that his department, in line with Robarts policy of pro- vincial government is to create the closest possible integration between provincial and munic- ipal road systems. Out of a budget of nearly $300 million, he said, $100 million is turned back to the villages, townships, towns, cities, and counties of Ontario, for the improvement of the roads under their control, thus saving the taxpayers from and insupportable burden of taxation. "When you have elected George McCutcheon", he said, 'you can rest assured that Huron - Bruce will get every bit of its fair share of money for road expenditures.'' FLAYS WINTERMEYER Turning to some of the state- ments made by Liberal leader John Wintermeyer, Mr. Mac - Naughton branded as " nonsense" the former's stand on such mat- ters as the present pension dis- cussions. He read excerpts from the official record of the Legislature to prove that the Liberal leader had demanded a portable pensions act two years ago—the legislation which Wintermeyer now contends is an act of sabotage for the fed- eral government. " The speaker read from a letter recently written by Mr. Robarts to Prime Minister Les- ter Pearson, in which he de- clared the Ontario government willingness to co-operate in 10 every possible way. Mr. Mac - Naughton said that Mr. Rob - arts' only demand is that time be permitted to study the fed- eral plan to make sure that it is suitable for the people of this province.
