For instance the TJ, F, O's. were very much opposed to Government House and the upkeep and .at the present time it is costing more than ever. 'The U. r,. were not all against the $600•oo grant. I think that some of the expenditures for the Government " of this country are altogether unnec- essary and uncalled for. In the first place think we have too many mem- bers and. I think they are too heavily paid. I want to make this point on the necessity of economy. 1 think we are 'too extravagant in the Dominion, in the Province, in our municipalities and individually and we will never get on our feet again until we get over this extravagance. We got into this way when the war was on, The prices doubled and we got into the way el paying those prices. 'Let 'ouit•dominion province, municipality and individual try to save. This extravagance is driv- ing our boys and .girls from the coun- try. We are paying heavy taxes be- cause we are so extravagant. If we are going to develop as a province and, a dominion, we must learn habits of economy. ant very pleased with a great deal of Mr. joynt's speech and he has jus- tified himself pretty well as to his attitude in the House, Mr, Bricker, I suppose will deny the extravagance of the present Drury Government, but we know that the debt of this province at the present time is climbing up very rapidly, that the expenditure -is .millions of dollars more than it was four years ago. It is very difficult nowacla.ys to estimate what •anything will cost Contractors • do not care to make a fixed contract • because they don't know what they niay have to pay. We have not the business men at the head of things Itoday that we should have, those who t have some idea of economy.

I have another letter here from my hon- orable friend, the Prime Minister of this province and speaking about cer- tain Matters he says, "I value your judgment and approval very highly, I belive you have, a sound sense of busi- ness values. I assure you I will ap preciate your help in this and othei patters when the Legislature meets Yours truly, E. C. Drury." If I wanted to continue these bou- quets from the members of the U.- F 0. here arc ,a wholebunch of them They thought I was it great help, to them but 1 .have something more im portant to tell you, They say, "long may you be spared to represent the North , riding of Huron, but the firs chance we get we will stab you in the back. You don't belong to the noble six hundred. We are, Us for ourselves and you have got to hew to our line if, you care to dinewith us. I don' Ilike • that. Here :is a letter from Dr Chisholm written three days after My !election in October,.1922, congratula I ting 221e on my great victory in North i Huron. I -1e said, ,we need men like ' you in our legislature, men who can not only manage their own affairs but have a heart and a desire to aid . others." That ie _the kind of a lette I like to read. He remembered When 4 1 was a poor boy and lie had the cour age of his convictions. I thought the Provincial Treasurer was a man with a great heart. Here is what he says, "The speech you de- livered in the House last evening '(that was in 1922), was a masterpiece in my mind and I hope that the good people of the province of Ontario will be blessed with your continued pres- ence for a good many, years to COlile.

In the first place we have increas- ed Succession Duty, that is if a man dies with a certain amount of money the Government takes a toll of it. It is increased. There is an increase on tax on insurance Co's. I think that tax on the 'income of Life Insurance Co's. is one of the most:unjustifiable r taxes we have in the countr3r. A man is taking- that, way of saving a little to support his family and the Govern- - rnent comes along and takes a tax off it. 'The Liberal Governrnent put it on but the Drury Government increas- ed it. They might as well tax it say- ings bank deposit.. They put a• tax on the transfer of shares, a tax on race tracks. We .don't know much about that but they have to pay some of it to the Drury Gov- ernment. They have gone into part- nership with the gambling fraternity on the race track, and in the dispen- sary where they sell liquor, There is an amusement- tax, an increased tax Q21 game and fish license, on real es- tate transfers. Everything is taxed and they will continue to be taxed until our legislators ecopoinize. How many of you are paying and less taxes since the Drury Government went fit - to power: ' Mr. Doherty was here the other day and he said he got the cattle embargo removed, We know that when our American cousins went into the war just at the close of it and the Ger- mans were defeated, they immediately said, "We Won the War." That is the same way Mr. Doherty got the cattle embargo removed,' 'Th.ere is an- other reason 'why we don't feel like supporting Drury Government. I will not say anything half as bad as' gr. Hicks said against the Governnicnt, and Drury personally, I guess he knew -what was going on, o13i the in- side, I ant rather 'surprised that gr. 'joynt didn't find out what was going on. Evidently he did not know be- cause I would 'note think my friend would support any goverment he did not think was all woolly white, clear white right through, but evidently he 'did hot find it out in time. He knows better now, Be is not going back to support Drury any longer. Mr. Joynt was evidently not in the inner circle. Don't any of you ConsetVatives get the -idea that Mr. Joynt is not a good Conservative. He, did not see all that was going oiv at first but- , after two or three years' experience he found out.
