National Immunization Week
WEEK OF SEPTEMBER 12
If a business man scorns the use of a safe for his valu-
ables and loses them through theft; if a farmer neglects to
protect his property by the use of lightning rods resulting in
destruction of his home or barn, the public generally may
sympathize with his loss but say, "He has no one but himself
to blame."
Vaccination for smallpox and Toxoid innoculations for
Diphtheria will guard and protect a child from these diseases
with greater certainty than safes will protect valuables and
lightning rods will save buildings. Yet in spite of these known,
safe and simple preventatives there are more deaths in Can-
ada from these diseases than there are due to Infantile Paral-
ysis. Scarlet Fever also can be practically eliminated by
innoculations.
The medical profession and public health workers are
aware of the danger continually threatening from these dis-
eases, a danger that can be completely overcome provided the
general public and parents do not become negligent or indif-
ferent because these diseases are not at present prevalent in
their community.
The week of September 12th has been proclaimed Na-
tional Immunization Week for Canada and all parents are
urged to review their children's health Innoculation record
and ensure that they are fully protected.
Each child should receive Diphtheria and Scarlet Fever
innoculations when 6 months of age, Smallpox vaccination be-
tween 6 and twelve months. Subsequently they should receive
booster doses before school age and every 3 years thereafter.
Now is the time, before the coining winter season, to take
advantage of this ounce of prevention. See your doctor now.

When the blaze was discovered in the

at the knitting factory promptly put
the fire out, and it was unnecessary
to call the fire brigade. Damage was

Call To George Drew
Radio di Ad ress
R
By CLARE WESTCOTT
Over Radio Station OJOS
Stratford — 8.15 P.M.
Friday, Sept. 10, 1948
Tonight ladies and gentlemen it is
my privilege to speak to you 0s a
Young Progressive Conservative of
Ontario.'I have lived in this part of
Ontario all my life as has my father
and grandfather before me. We liave
seen men rise' .to, great political
heights. All. were outstanding able
men who served well their country
and their party duringthe period of
their'leadership whether for long or
short time, The men who work their
way up through the stormy seas of
public government office are few.
Naturally, leaders are chosen from
these top few who give their, all' to
the people in the process of govern-
ment administration.
In a few weeks the Progressive
Conservative Party will choose a
new leader. There is one among • us
who has . the natural qualities, the
colour, the background and respect
needed to lead' a country as democrat-
ically governed as our own glorious
Canada.
The main theme of, my talk to -night
is addressed particularly to this one
man. A man whose achievements in
public life have to -day placed him at
the head of our government in
Ontario.
A man whose life has been devoted
to. the public service of Canada as
was his grandfather's, who was a
member of the first government of
,Confederation. The man of whom I
speak, the Premier of 'Ontario, Col.
George A. Drew, has given us through
his far sighted ed leader
slitP and ability
to grasp the most complex depart-
mental affairs a record of achieve-
ment unequalled anywhere, anytime,
in this great Dominion.
To George Drew I say this: the
People
of Ontario io ca
n a bostofli
in one of the finest and best governed
,places on this earth due to your un-
tiring efforts as Minister and Leader
of its Executive Council, I would take
this opportunity of asking you to
allow your name to be put forward
as a candidate in the conning Pro-
gressive Conservative national leader-
ship convention at Ottawa on Sep-
tember 30, 1948.
In 1915, at 21, George Drew went
overseas with the 16th Battery. Sev-
erely wounded be returned home,
scorned discharge and instead stayed
on with the Artillery and in 1917 was
named to command the 64th Battery,
a Lieutenant-Colonel at the age of 23,
With his arm in a sling he took the ,
64th overseas, returning to Canada in
ing a sign saying in large forceful
letters "Ontario Calling". Expect-
ing
xpecting the same indifference he asked
about coming to our province. Ima-
in
i e h' surprise rise when finding
g he
could leave England by air within
24 hours and arrive in Toronto,
Ontario, ready to start a new life.
Yes, ladies and gentlemen, George.
Drewreally gets , things done, .
I would now like to' repeat and em-
phasize my previous call to Mr. Drew.
To M1 Drew 1 again call and say:
We need you. Our party needs you,.
our °governnmennt needs you •
and greatest of all, our country needs
you ..as national leader of
the Progressive Conservative Party of
Canada you could lead our country at
a time when our population and pro-
duction expands as never before in its
history.
By allowing your name to be put
forward at the coming Progressive
Conservative national leadership con-
vention you will be doing your country
a great and noble service.
I thank you , , , , .
Coleman Reunion

1918 to the hospital, this time to
spend a year. In the post-war years he
maintained his interest in the Army
and was given command of the 11th
Field Brigade. In the early thirties he
rounded out his military career by
becoming aid-de-camp to the Gov-
ernor-General, Lorcl Bessborough,
He
was
City e in 1922d eand e1by 1925 to he
had become Mayor, still in his early I
thirties. The same year his legal abil-
ity was accorded singular recognition
when he was appointed Assietanti
Master of the Supreme Court of On -1
tario, a position he held until 19291
when was made Master.
In 1937 d
Earl Rowe as pro inciial leadee Drew r aandea
few weeks later he contested a by-
election in Slmcoe East and won his
seat. He then found himself leader i
of the opposition in a growing Con-
servative movement, as the . once
powerful Hepburn administration
began to Crumble. 1943, 45 and 48
elections saw the Conservative Gov-
ernment under the leadership of
George Drew gain momentum as it
proved its 'worth and showed the
people of Ontario just what honest,
progressive and responsible govern-
ment really was.
No Government in Canada has ever,
been more responsive to the will of
the people.
No Government in Canada has
respected socompletelythe demo-
cratic rights of the people.
Men with the natural talents with
which Premier Drew is endowed are
extremely valuable. Through the
stability of character of men like
this our democratic institutions are
maintained and preserved for our
children who otherwise might grow
up to live under a dictatorship as in
some of the unfortunate downtrod-
den countries across the sea. Mr.
Drew has the qualities necessary to
lead our country. 71e commands re-
spect and esteem from Canadians in
every walk of life from British Co-
lumbia to our new Island Province,
Newfoundland.
His stand on Communism, the
greatest threat to world unity,
stands out singularly because he
publicly labels it for what it is—
not a political party—simply the ex-
tension of Soviet Russia's foreign
policy machine.
Some weeks ago it was my privil-
ege to attend the Young Progressive
Conservative summer school near
Gravenhurst where 200 youthful
delegates from every constituency in
Ontario gathered to share ideas and
learn of the machinery of Govern-
ment. From conversations with these
enthusiastic young people I found
that the youth of Ontariois behind
George Drew. They take that stand
for a reason—why? Because Prem-
ier Drew has shown them the best
Government in the history of our
banner provinde.
'Not long ago I talked to an Eng-
lish lad who arrived here under the
Ontario Air Immigration Plan. He
told me of how he tried to readjust
himself in post war England only to
find it lacked the virgin fields that
lend incentive ta a young man 'start-
ing in life. He told me of how he
visited Australian, New • Zealand,
South African and .Canadian head-
quarters in London. Their "regula-
tions, quota systems and endless red
tape seemed unsur.mountable bar-
riers. After giving up all hope of
leaving England he told me of see -
