My opponea in this contest has announced In stand on at least two important cluestions. He is in favor of five year trial for the L. C. A, and is satisfie with the attitude of the Minister of Education in his school reform. H also appears to have faith that Hydr Rates will be reduced. I believe the L. C. A. to be a dis mal failure as a control measure bu strong on sales and revenue as see by these figures: $17,000,000 the firs six months, $49,000,000 the next yea and another report due the day afte election which will show a steady in crease in sales and revenue. Agai I say T am opposed to the Liquo traffic in any form and will be faith foul to the electors and temperanc people of North Huron who have en dorsed and will support me in the coming election, Hydro rates must be reduced both to urban and .rural users. If $4.55 has been the maintenance charge to rural users and that based on cost, how can a' reduction to $2,50 just before an election be possible with- out increasing something else after the election? Remember your reduc- tion in auto license in 1926 just be- fore an election and then the permit you had to buy after. Old Age Pensions will cost this County anywhere from $14,000 to $18,000 during , the coming year, which is direct taxation. Over $8,- 000,000 made out of liquor sales in the last fiscal, year, yet to avoid a deficit in the province, 20% of Old Age Pensions is assessed against the County. The Province should pay the whole cost, The gross public debt of the Pro- vince to -day .is $394,000,000. Hydro debt, which is provided for, is $153,- 000,000, leaving $241,000,000 as- the net debt, $112,000,000 of which is chargeable to Highways. Our inter- est charges alone paid on the debt, amount to $17,000,000 per year, yet we were told in Wingham by Mr. Spotton, and a few believed it, that our entire debt was only $60,000,000. $16,000,000 was added to the net debt of the Province in the last year. A return of the Ferguson Govern-' ment means a continuance of the Li- quor Control Act for as long as they remain in power. No more plebis- cites will be given. It means Town- ship School Boards will be again -in- troduced, two years High School work in Public Schools and 1 year of University work in High Schools. It means increased taxation all along the line with no corresponding bene- fit. To elect a Ferguson supporter from Huron will be interpreted to mean that you are satisfied with the Liquor Control Act, with the Hydro rates you pay, that you want Town- ship School Boards, that you are willing to ''pay 20% of the cost of Old Age Pensions and that it is no concern of yours that the Province is increasing taxation everywhere and piling. up a huge debt. Can you af- ford to take the chance? I again' ask the electors to serious- ly consider the situation and trust I will be worthy of your support. C. A.
