C., Also Speak Messages of good -will from the two extremes of Canada, Nova Scotia and ' British Columbia, were brought to Ontario at a meeting, held here on Saturday of last week and arranged for by George Spotton, M. P. for North Huron, at which he gave an account of his stewardship' and re- viewed the legislation of, the present session of Parliament; The emissaries of good -will were Felix' Quinn, M. P. for Halifax, and J. C. Brady, of Prince Rupert, member for Skeena, B. C. They were cordially welcomedby a large and friendly audience in the town hall. Mr. Quinn is the successor to Sir Robert Borden in the riding of Hali- fax. and he 'bropght to Ontario a mes- sage . of good -will from the Atlantic province. Mr. Brady represents in Parliament a constituency whose area is greater in extent than'Scotland and Wales combined and he told of British Columbia's interest in and love for the banner province of Canada. Dun- can Sinclair, M. P. for North Welling- ton, with Mr, Spotton, represented Ontario. Thus diverse points of view were discussed mutual problems were laid before appreciative listeners, and altogether it was an enthusiastic aud- ience which enjoyed these speakers. E. S. Copeland, of Wingham, was chairman and he exprresscd the pleas- ur'c of' the North :Huron electorate in having the privilege of "listening to Buy Your ''Fuel Now Prices At Spring h x BEST D. L. & W.

The meeting was broadcast over radio station xol3P, Wingham, and was the first of a series of such gath- erings to be held throughout North Huron by Mr, Spotton. Mr. Sinclair,'the first speaker, spoke of the decided impression which the Conservative member for North Hur- on had made upon the House of COM. mons. He spoke of Mr, Spotton's "justly famous mighty voice" and told of the work he had done for his con- stituency. He .dealt with the Austrl- ian Areaty and showed how this leg- islation enacted by the King Govern- ment was tending to ruin the dairy industry of Canada. The Government had been impervious to hundreds of appeals from all over, the country, from men of all shades of political opinion, desirous of seeing 'Canada's farmers prosper, He rittotcd many facts and figures; culled frdm`the re- cords of. the Dominion bureau of statistics to suport his arguments. He also was critical of the immigration policy of the present administration; which he called a disgrace which should be wiped out and a suitable -policy substituted, He mentioned also; the expenditures of the •Govern- nxent, which he called extravagant. He quoted the beautification of Ott-, awa as a glaring instance: Millions of, dollars were being spent to make Ottawa a nicer place to look at, while' the country groandd'under the heavy burden of taxation. Mt`. Spotton said that session of the House had been a long one and was likely to last some time yet. The Conservatives are fighting tooth and nail against the extravagances of the Government and combating legislation which would be detrimental to Ont - Air WINfaHAM ADVANC ',-TIMB ario and the country as a whole, Ile spoke of criticism which had been directed at him by the local liberal member (C. A. Robertson) and. advised him to stick to the provincial field, where he belonged, and do some- thing there; not to waste his time meddling in federal Matters out of is jurisdiction. He said his opponent had said that he (Mr. Spotton) had "slipped in" on a minority vote be - cense Liberals and Progressives had been like minded. He suggested that the Liberal member should 'keep 'faith" before he said Liberals and Pro- gressives were like minded. He said he had been accused of voting for legislation other. , than that introducedby his own party, He ad- mitted the charge -he was proud of it. He had gone to Ottawa without shackles, to vote for legislation which he believed would .be in the interests of North Huron and the country as a whole, regardless of who introduced it.. (Applause.) He had promised this in his campaign, and as' long as he re- presented: North Huron he would keep that promise and would not break faith. (Applause.) He spoke of the appropriation the Government had introduced for re- novation of Rideau Hall, which he criticized as unnecessary and extra- vagant. He also criticized the great sums .of money to be voted for the beautification of .Ottawa. He contend- ed that money should not be spent in this reckless manner on beautifica- tion until some of the war debt had. been paid and until those in civil ser- vice getting "niggardly salaries" were, recompensed in a manner more coin- inensurate with their services. He lab- elled it as a crime that, when the peo- ple were, struggling for prosperity, millions should be "poured through the hopper to hold two more seats for the Liberal party at the next gen- eral election." He mentioned that he had' voted for the Sarnia -Port Huron bridge because he thought it wood serve a good purpose without costing• the' treasury a cent. Mr. Spotton referred. to the Bell Telephone Company's application for an increase in capital, and said that this would be accompanied by an in- crease in rates. It was a piece of melon -cutting which he could not countenance. He contended that no member of the House who held stock in the company 'should be allowed to vote on the bill. It would be a glad day for Bell Telephone stockholders should the bill pass the Commons, but it would be a sad day for Bell Tele. phone subscribers, lie said. The member for North Huron dealt with immigration and pointed to the great numbers of the best of our young brains annually going to United States. - The best immigrants, he con- tended would be the sons and daugh- ters of the pioneers who made devel- opment in this , country possible. He'mentioned that he had pressed for the Brussels post office, and that he worked hard for a greater approp- riation for Goderich harbor and his efforts in. this connection had been successful. He had tried also to help the rural mail carriers and the rural postmasters. Mr. Quinn said that it was mis- leading to suggest that Mr. Spotton had "slipped in" to Parliament. He had obtained a good majority in spite of the offensive launched by the big guns of the Government, when the Cabinet ministers had come into the riding in support of the Liberal can- didate. Mr. Quinn devoted a 'large part of his speech to the McConachie case, one made famous by him in. Parlia- ment. It concerned the young child of a British soldier immigrant who had been refused permission to come to Canada. Thousands of special permits had been issued, for bringing in Cent- ral Europeans, yet the Government had refused him a special permit to NOTICE TO CREDITORS 4,1 grin in a child ld of a 13ritislzer who :SW$* {1**tNL had been willing to sacrifice his life ! for his country, He brought to Ont- in N ario a message from the Atlantic coast province, from the riding of Halifax, which had sent three prime ministers to Parliament, and it was a message of good- will and friend- ship. Mr. Brady pleaded for the interest of young men in politics, and urged that they think along the right lines in the interest of the country as a whole. The young man to -day must keep the vision which his great heri- tage gives him and must help to ob- tain for the country the best possible Government. He paid a glowing tri- bute to the Federal Conservative lead- his Hon. R. B. Bennett, saying that his vision, his ability, his general and constitutional knowledge and his un- derstanding;would lead the party to victory.. British Columbia, he said, reached across the rockier and gave to Ontario population, but great in natural re- sources, British Columbia needed the help of Ontario, first, in population and industry and first, above all, in standing for the noble principles of British freedom. In regard to the immigration policy he said there was a danger of losing out political indepeodance, our identi- ty. The best of our trained young brans were being attracted to the United States by gold. Canada did not offer them the opportunities to which they were entitled -because of their trained ability and education. Instead, Canadians in the United Stat- es were among the most highly paid. and respected men in that country and which they were endeavoring to In the estate of William Ernest Thompson, late of the Township of West Wawanosh in the County of Huron, Farmer, Deceased.
