formai Report
Tells of Government Activity As
Basis of Election Appeal
Toronto, Oct. 19.—A statment was
issued Tuesday morning by Premier
Ferguson. It reada:
To. the People of Ontario:
On assuming office three :mil a lulf
year ago. this Government determin-
ed upon a policy of honest, ere], imie
al and efficient administration. While
extending the various public serv;eos
to meet tha growing needs of this
great province, our aim has lrien by
rigid economy arid improved methods
to overtake the huge defict with which
100 were faced Ilnd begin a program
of relieving the taxpayers as rapidly
as possible from the henry burden
of taxation.
It will be gratifying to the taxpay-
er to learn that we are now in a posi-
tion to announce substantirl reduc-
tions in taxation. We are peoud nf
a record that in ,so short it tirrt. en-
ables the Government to ask your
approval of a course of ru tam that
has brought about a new era in the
huainese arairs of the provine,--a
Milanced budget and lower taxes..
A brief review of the work. of the
Government shows that the finansea
of the province have been etsablish-
ed upon a sound basis, A (leftist of
$15,00 0,00 0 in the annual budget of
the province has • been successfully
met. Foe the iirst time in the history
of provineial finance a system of
continuous audit of both revenuss
and disbursements in every depart-
ment has been inaugurated. Provie-
ion has been made for paying off the
debt of the province.
Road Building
Reorganization of the highwi-y de-
partment and the adoption or Mori,
economical and efficient methods
have enabled the building of more
mileage of highway at greatly red.tic-
ed coat. The provincial program, as
originally outlined, has been complet-
ed to the point where the Goearnment
feels warranted in adding substantial
mileage to the otigital scheme.
A great impetus has been given to
the development of our vaet wealth
in minerals, forest products rani oth-
or natural resources - and to the role
onization of Noethern Ontario. Ibti
