given is. that these o'd cars Constitute

facturers expect• that this wholesale

AN ELECTION .SEEMS LIKELY
Opinion at Ottawa appears to in-
cline more and more to the view that
a' federal election will be, held before
the summer is over -in August the
first' week of September. The. pro h-
ets think that they see many things
indicating such an event. ,
We don't know whether or not,
among other things,'they count • that
"not one cent to Tory provineial'kov•
ernmerits" 'statement by Premier 'W.
L. M. King, for it appears generally
accepted that that declaration will
not greatly heli' the Liberal Party:
There is no saying what explanation
Mr. King has to effer, but we may 'be,
sure that the statement will be heard
from every. Conservative oritor tak=
