!LIBERAL GROUP,
SOLID AGAINST
RADIAL POLICY
Favor Reorganization of Hydro'
Commission, as Suggested in
January
Toronto July tSth—The following
official report of the caucus of Liberal
members of the Legislature at the Par
!lament Buildings on Tuesday was issu
ed last night:
"With the exception of ;Mr, Currie
and.Mr. Tolmie who were not in vited
and Mr. Sam Clark who is in the North
west, and Mr. Mageau who is overseas
all of the Liberal; members who were
present or who have been eominuuicat
ed with since the meeting have expres
sed their views in approval of the unan
imous action of the members who were
present at the caucus, The statement
given out by Mr, Dewart on July 9th
with reference to the policy of the Pro
vincial Liberal party as to the Hydro -
radial railways, was absolutely endorsed.
The liberal members are united in favor
of the re -organization of the Hydro- ale
ctrie Commission upon the basis sug
gested to Mr. Drury last January and
advocated in the House. Such a re -or-
ganization would have rendered unnec-
essary the appointment of any commis
Sion to report to the Government upon
the workings of the Hydro -electric
Commission now.

Elected As Legislators
"Several members emphasized • the
fact that they were elected not to ask
others how the business of the country
should be conducted but to perforin
the duties as legislators for which they
had been elected by the people.
"The statement of the Premier and
Mr. Raney's speech of Mount Forest
were simply repititions of what was
contained in the report of Mr. 0, T.
Clarkson which h was in the, hands of
the Government immediately after it
was transmitted on March 19, 192o,
The I•Iouse was then in session 'until
Friday May 28th. There was ample time
for the Government to have conte to a
conclusion with reference to the mat-
