A 1V,IISCHEVIOUS STATEMENT Sir Henry Drayton has requested us 'to publish the following state- ments in reply to the address deliv- ered at Wingham Liberal Conven- tion ;last week by Mr'. "Thomas Mc - Milian, M. P. for ' South Huron, in, which he led his hearers to believe that if Hon. Arthur Meighen's Gov- ernment was returned to power the C. N. R. and the C. P. R., would be amalgamated and that Sir Henry Thornton's position would be taken over by myself or some of the C. P, R which he tried toshow were members of the Meighen Cabinet s as fol - The communication in part i lows: -"It is simply uuschevious to suggest that the National system can be made the sport of politics or to insinuate that Sir Henry' Thorn - ton's position is in. the slightest de- gree jeopardized." • "My' attention has been called to. the fact that The Toronto Star also making prophecies as to what I in tend doing after the elections, and is slating me for high office,. "I -wish I could look upon The 'Toronto Star's interest in my wel- fare as personal to me, but. I am afraid that such isnot the case. Dur lug the last election this paper tried' to make much of the fact that the Conservative party wasin some way or other going to get rid of the National Railways and in some way or other hand them over pre- sumably to the Canadian Pacific. There was; of course, nothing in its rumor of that date; there is :absolute- ly nothing in the Star's prophecy, under which prophecy I am to re- place either Sir Henry Thornton or the Hon, P. C. Larkin- This: news indeed, is news to me; but it is not news to all; the suggestion is simply -untrue,': and is made merely for the ;purpose of the election. "Anything that is either said or written wllich in any way disturbs the administration pf the country's greatest undertaking is particularly mischevious. The President of a large system such as ours represents much more than himself; he repre- sents the organization which he has built up, and through which he fun- ctions. There have been differences of opinion in the past as to the rail- way management, but as I have said before there can be no difference of opinion as to the tremendous im- provement made last year-theim- pressive economies brought about in transportation cost. "I have now been acting Minister of Railways for some time, and am pleased to be able to say that 1 look for an assured improvement this year over 'last. These results have been achieved through the loyal co-oper- ation of one hundred thousand :em,- ployees working -with and behind Sir Fleury Thornton. Sir Henry Thorn- ton has been eminently successful in obtaining the most loyal co-opera- tion of the executive and of the whole personnel of the system. "It is simply mischevious to sug- gest ,that the system can be made the sport of politics or to insinuate that Sir Henry Thornton's position is in the slightest degree jeopardized: In order for him to obtain proper results his position must be certain and subject to no question what- ever." -- CAMPS FOR MOTOR TOURISTS ARE CAREFULLY INSPECTED The health Department of Ontario has issued the following bulletin of interest to touring motorists, and deal- ing with the preservation of health: Tourist uri camps and refreshment s P booths alongthe highways and roads of Ontario are now inspected by the Department of Health, and each pro- rprietor who maintains his premises and the necessary equipment in a san- itary manner is granted an approval sign.
