J. Deachman, . Liberal Candidate for North Huroh Elston In an interview in the Britssehs' Posit a few days ago. Mr, Cardiff, Conservative Candidate in. Worth Huron said "I do believe that I understand the needs of Huron-Counr." If he does then his understanding is. a great deal wider than the rectnrothe understanding of his. party. Conservative op,osttiou to citY and to the ex,pa>vsies o3 marketts always has been - always will be a plank of the Conservative panty. Mr. 'Casrdiff is a Conservative. The National Party and the Conservative Panty are the •salve thing, The policy of the 'Conservative party is ,trade restriction. et loes net alter that policy by changing its name, Progress for .Cana an farmers is based on wider markets, not reistricted. markets. This is a rural area, interested particularly in live -stock and live stock products, The pr'rrp=riiy of the town depends directly orb the prosperity of the farmers, The farmer needs markets. Yet, if Mr. Cardiff had been in the House od commons during thelant five years, he would have voted' twice against the reciprociity agreement with the United States, which cut in two the duty on Canadian beef cattle going to the Gutted States market, cut it trona 3o per 11r. to 13hc per 111. And what would you have done - you who now read this story? Without doubt -or hesitancy, regardless of politics. in your own in- terest, in the interests of the nation, you would have voted fur reciprocity, Why should Mr, (Cardiff not have done .. the same. That is a question. for ham to answer. i the guests' were free to visit, ell the Admission Gents 25c, Lad ies` 1 5c ! roosts, The Settler Rede Gross * 'r " w Y•N•N4•4,0•4.N•N•M►�,~ e •NMN •d veeee• 81101 9andwlohee were scored. girls, bad a booth art which coffee Did the opening of the American us arkei hhelp the the farriers of Huron County?

The total calves and crottle slaughtered at 'Can- adian insPepted establislranents in an average year is roughly 1,600,000. Id in addition to this there bad gone to the Canadian market the 280,-- 000 80,,000 shipped to the United States, what would have happened to the'price of live stock? The market would have collaPeed. It would have affected the price of all live stock. It would have lowered the. price of all tam precincts, The tarn1ers of North Huron wotilO have paid, the ;price which must al• ways be paid when we vote dor ,the resitriction of our o'wn' markets. The question now before us, le simlpty title — is there ore farrow in' 7tttron Nanny who wouldr, if he knew the circumstances, deliberately try to prevent the expansion of our live Mock market Cat Mr. Cardiff Hanle one except himself? Is there a merchant or lrnslnes0 anon in ani town of North lturou who, having etrudied the question, would . North Huron Liberal Association favor such reticles? Is there a worker? He would indeed be foolish, for the e%pansion of markets means increased purchasing power tor the farmers —more business for the men who make and sell goods. Does the latter statement need woof? If it does the figures are available. $n[ 19345 - 856,000. workers 'were employed In Canadian: mannill'actur- ing industries - in 19427 there were 660,000. The Increase In value of products produced was greater than in any other similar period In Canadian history. Yet 'while this develcpmewt eels taking place, we were told every year in the House of Commons •that lower tardffd would ruin Canadian, industry, The eacts ere the only answer which need ever be given to such mis- statements, Revision of the .present reciprocity agreenieart will take place within the life of the parliament we nee about to elect. 'There will he op ortundtiea for trade expansion in other markets. We shall need' larger markets in the next fent/ Years, Tee Conservative nailer has always' opposed the development of the American market as an, outlet for Canadian piodrtcts. The Liberal party ,is for wider and wider markets le every gauntry,. I wonder if Mr. Cmrdlff has ever • sa.i1 to himself, "It ie good Chert the Liberals opened that market -- good arketgood' both for farmers, and townaherople .alike;". Will Mr. Cardiff tell us if he is, still opposed to beeping alien the American market for Canadian cattle? Per a5 years I have consistently tought for the farmer's cause in the press, on the public platform, oven the radio, and iii the House of Commons, I will not fail you now. I will never work nor. vote against your interests. Help me to help you by Voting Liberal,
