'Ikea said It", a comedy full' of laughs, is being presented in the Town Hall on Friday night;; April 20 under the special arrangement .with Gip this and mail it overseas—airmail today., A Message from GEORGE DREW to all with Relatives and Friends Overseas ARRANGEMENTS have been made by the Ontario Government for members of all the It Armed Services overseas to vote in the coining Ontario election by placing a ballot in a ballot box for the candidate of their own choice. The arrangements which have been completed for the Ontario vote are the best which have yet been made for any Active Service vote. The Government, however, can only make the arrangements for taking the vote. What is equally important is that those who are overseas know the name of the candidates, the party they are supporting and have a sufficiently clear picture of the issues to decide how they should vote. That can only be done if those at home supply them with information. May I strongly urge.every wife, mother, father, sister, brother or friend of those overseas to write and tell them all they can about the coming Ontario election. By clippings from newspapers, by editorial comment, and by personal explanation, a clear understanding can be given of what is really at stake in this Ontario election. One of the things which will cause the greatest difficulty in the minds of those overseas, particularly those who live in large cities, is to determine which Riding they live in. Maps will be available, but even the best map sometimes leaves doubt when the voter has been away from home for a long time, or as is true in so many cases has never voted before. This difficulty will be increased because pf the difference between the boundaries' of Dominion and Provincial Ridings. I would suggest that you write immediately, by airmail, to all with whom you are in com- munication and tell them the Riding in which they live and give them what information you can about the party and the candidate in the Riding where they arc entitled to vote. I should mention that every member of the Armed Forces overseas of any age is entitled to vote. They, above all others have the right to vote. They have preserved for us that free system of Government which depends upon the choice of our own representatives. Our job here at home is not only to make sure that they have the chance to vote but also to do everything possible to make sure that they are able to vote with knowledge of the real issues in the election. For the sake of convenience, I am suggesting that you simply cut out this message and address it to someone overseas giving the information required. Each ofie of us here at home has a responsibility to help them to choose the Government which will have so much to do with their future in the years of peace. May I again urge you to write at once, by airmail, not only to those closest to you but to as many as you know in any of the services outside of Canada. Telt them what Provincial Riding they reside in at home—then the name of the candidate and any further information you can supply.
