The following ladies were in COMMUNICATION • Editor', The Seaforth News. Dear Sir—We of the CCF party feel that the. charges Mr. Clare West cott has made against our Federal Leader and the OCF should be ac- cepted as a' compliment to the pro- gress the movement has made in fifteen years. That we alone should be singled out for abuse and 'that statements made by . outFederal Leader should be so misconstrued as to give an entirely different meaning, points' out to me that the Young Pro- gressive Conservative Assn. of Sea - forth is following the slanderous tactics of the older Conservatives. 1f I was to make' any constructive criticism of the Progressive Conserva- tive party, I would state that if they were more progressive and less con- servative they would probably regain some of the electoral votes that they have lost in the past ten years. I teal that when the CCF party is singled out for such attacks by Clare West- cott that he cherishes the fond wish of a Federal political marriage of the Conservatives and Liberals to combat the reform legislation demanded by the average man and woman in this Canada of ours. The Provincial political marriage of the Conservative and Liberal parties has taken place in British, Columbia, Saskatchewan and Manitoba in order to curtail the progress of a reform party. As everyone knows the membership of the CCF comes from former sup- porters of both Liberal and Conserva- tive parties who have become dis- gusted with the failure of those Parties in enacting legislation to en- force the promises made previous to federal and provincial elections. The provincial election in Saskat- chewan last June refutes all claims that the CCF is a totalitarian govern- ment that, once gaining power of government, would never call another general election. The CCF government was returned to power in Saskatche- wan regardless of a coalition of the Liberals and Conservatives and a slanderous campaign conducted by Mr. Tucker on the same lines as Mr. Drew condemned the CCF party in Ontario. ,For Mr. Westcott's information the national Council is composed of the officers and six members elected at the national convention which is held AT FINNIGAN'S ATTENTION' HOUSEWIVES • If you are interested in Cherries, call us at once.
