Progressives of 74, Huron Reject Or-

Separate. Parley
WING]-i'AM, June 6, --Decisions of
the Progressives of North Huron a-
gainst joining forces with the Liber-
als to support a Liberal candidate in
the next federal election, and of the
United Farmers faction to hold .11
separate annual meeting in October,
featured the annual meeting of the
Por t
Progressives l t.ld.ore to-day,The
h
gathering wen addressed by Joint W.
Xing, 14I2., for North Huron, and C.
W. Stewart, M. P. for Humbolt, Bask, ,
The decision to remain aloof from
the Liberals came about informally
President William Rutherford had re-
ported that he had been approached
on the subject. He stated that a Lib-
eral organizer had come to hien sev-
eral -days ago and asked him if the
Progressives would support a Liberal
candidate. Mr. Rutherford told the
meeting hie answer had been an em-
phatic "No" and his answer was echo-
ed with equal emphasis by the mem-
bers present.
The decision of the 11. F. 0, ad-
herents to call a separate annual
meeting followed considerable discus-
sion on the policies of political action.
to be followed, members of this
group favoring keeping the move-
ment strictly agrarian, while the Pro-
gressives favored extending - the
movement to the urban centres. At
the meeting in October the United
Formers faction will select their own
-officers and settle their own,poliey of
political action.
In addressing the meeting to -clay,
Mr. King dealt principally with the
tariff and urged reduction of the dut-
Mes on automobiles, boots and shoes
and other staple products. Mr. Stew-
art touched on the political action
issue, declaring, that he didn't ap-
prove of making the party exclusive-
ly of fanners, but would take in men
from the cities, towns and vdlai ev.
He voiced the opinion that the U. F.
0,'s failure was because the members
did not stick together as they should.
Mrs. Lane,`U. F. W. 0. riding dir-
ector, told the men that things were
not being run as they should. They
had had too easylast
a time for the
year or two, she said, and must now
do some hard work.
It was decided to hold a picnic in
the near future, arrangements ad to
One and place being left in the hands
of a committee. J. W. Xing, M.P.,
end Bliss Agnes Maephail, M.P. for
South Grey, are expected to be am-
ong the speakers.
Officers were elected as follows:
President, William Rutherford, Wevt
Wawanosh; first vice-president, Shel-
don Bricker, Howick; second vice-
president, Mrs. Wnt. Currie, East
