CAPT. E. PHILPOTT
TALKS'ABOUT C. C. F.
For Over an Hour He Explained the
C.C.F. Platform to Interested
. Audience.
Captain Elmore Philpott, President
of the C.C.F. Clubs of Ontario, and
one of the outstanding leaders of the
Co -Operative Commonwealth Federa-
tion outlined. on Saturday, night in
the Town Hall, the policy and aims
of this movement. He stated that the
United Farmers of Ontario are doing
just what this organization had set
out to do. He spoke of.R. J. Scott,
Belgrave, as the best IJ.F.O. Presi-
dent the organization ever had, stat-
ing he had a 1983 mind. •
In speaking of the C.C.F. he said
it was a league against capitalism
this is the economic system of the
last 20 years. He claimed that the
Governments had been governed by
the money monopoly. Speaking of
the Currency used today, he said the
little money, one and two dollar bills,
are the King's, while large denornin
ations belong to capitalism The C.
C.F. is made up of middle class peo-
ple, professors, etc., but the back-
bone of the movement is the fermer,
as they are against capitalism, and
want a practicalesolution to what is
wrong. This depression is different
from any other depression as we have
people starving in the midst of pion-
ty. Today, he claimed, we have bank-
ruptcy of statesmanship.
Mr, Bennett -did as much as any
human being to make this old system
work. Mr. King had tried to make
it work. It is not a question of the
man, it is a question of system and
the foundation of the system must be
changed.
The old order has ,feiled, and whe-
ther we want to or riot we must set
tip a control system and the question
is for whose benefit the Capitalist or
the ordinary people who realty, create
wealth.
The stock market crash of 1929
was the beginning of the end of the
old system and the. C.C.F. have set
out to plan a new Canada.
First, planning a new economic or-
der and. develop natural resources of
the country.
Second, Practical measure. ReLor-
ganizetion of the whole banking and
financial system of the country.
Capt. Philpott clairns that wealth
is concentrating into fewer and. fewer
hands and. in this respect we are
worse than the United States. He
stated that ten per cent. of the peo-
ple in Canada own ninety per cent: of
the, wealth. In 40 years they had
gained this control. We took our
money to the barik,for safe keeping
but it was used for high financial and
racketeering schemes, He said C.C.
F. would stop this use of people's
money to get thein further into debt.
The C.C.F. would take over and
socialize—refining and distributing of
gasoline, meat packing industry, pro-
cessing and distributing millegwould
take back national resources. To do
this C.C.F. will pay dollar for dollar
of honest value but will not pay a
single cent for such things as water-
ed stock or that which was stolen
from the people of the country.
C.C.F. has no slogan but a good
one would be 'The Farmer First'. He
spoke of the eviction of the farmer
from his farm and said the C.C.F.
stood for "The security of tenure of
the farmer on his farm."
Other things the C.C.F. propose to
do are: relieve tariff burdens, trade
with every great country' of the world,
change British North Atnerica Act as
far as is necessary to make thee
changes in social system; reduce the
number of governments, abolish com-
pletely the Senate of Canada; mit hue
man rights before money right •—•
change the system, turn it upside
down.. •
Further proposals are:
Right of every child to be well-
born (proper care of mother during
inaternity), right of every Canadian
to be well educated; right of every
Canadian to work, and duty of every
Canadiait to work, and at what he is
best fitted; right of every Canadian
to the full product of his toil; right
of every Canadian to economic secur-
ity. Spread the cost of unployment
over whole people; spread the cost of
siekness over whole people; spread
the cost of adequate pension for old
age over whole people,
,In conclusion he .id this C. C. F.
prograin can be fulfilled and will be
fulfilled, and 'urged the people of Can -
oda not to be sidetracked by side is-
sttee. The C C. X WaS a great Can
