The meet- ing to be at Anne Rising's on' Oct. 30th at 7:30 p.m. • With the election, but a few days away Charlie Thomas, Huron Liberal candidate has in- dicated his views on the main issues to the Expositor; In a statement this week he says:- I .... believe the state of the econ- omy is the issue receiving the most attention. The economy in Canada has shown the largest increase in Gross National Pro- duct of any other, country in the free world except Japan. Our rate of inflation is lower than, all other countries. We have created more jobs than'England, France, West Germany and Italy com- bined, in the last four and a half years and their population is' much, larger than ours. Un- employment 'continues 'to be a problem. It is difficult to tune the economy so that ups and downs in e ' ployment do not occur and no g vernment has been able to iminate completely these rise s and falls. The unemploy- ment insurance program is de- signed to help the people who become temporarily unemployed during times of higher unemploy- ment. Signs indicate that the measures taken earlier this year to st imulate the economy are beginning to take effect and bus- iness is expanding rapidly, I believe More' jobs will• be the result. fair tax burden. This is precise- ly, what has been happening in Canada, for years and has happen- ed at an accelerated rate under the Trudeau government. ve are net dealing with one or two temporary programs. What Conservatives and Literal governments have built up is a vast network of corporate wel- fare, costing hundreds of 'mil- lions each year. What we have is income distribution in reverse; from the working people to the corporations. The New Dem- ocratic Party would ensure a more equitable rate of taxation by closing the loopholes that al- low companies to avoid paying their fair sharer This could re- suit in a reduction in tax for low and middle income families giv- ing them more purchasing power, creating demand that would bring about more employment and a more prosperous Canada, Almost half a million people in this country are without, jobs. We are losing what each of these people would 'have produced had he been working. Unemployment should n,c't be part of the power game as Liberals and Conserva- tives have used it. The New Democratic Party would use pub- lic funds to build jobs for people, not profits for corporations. Worthwhile and deeply-needed social projects would be given priority. planless and pointless welfare programs for corpora- tions, financed by your taxes, would not be used to bolster the private sector. We must take in- to account the needs of Canada and the Canadian people. Unem- ployment in Canada can be beaten by investment in anti-pollution programs, massive home-build- Smiles . . . I wouldn't say my secretary was nearsighted, but this morn- ing, she tried to dial the pencil sharpener. • Wfe decided to do a skit at Achievement Day on Dec. 9th, in Clinton. We discussed 'plan- ning good meals'. Jane Leertaingp and Margy Hicksondemonstrated making grilled cheese sand, wiches. Home assignment was to prepare a soup and sand- wiche Mr. and Mrs. Rollie Achilles attended the funeral in Guelik of the late Mrs. Harvey Zeigler (the former Katie Laidlaw) who lived on the 8th concession of Morris, Mrs. Achilles and Mrs. Zeigler were cousins. Mr. James Clark, Keith and Ann were Friday evening guests -with Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Clark and son Jim, who now live iff Listowel , moving there recently from London. Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Mitchell of Listowel. visited Friday evening with Mr. and Mrs. Em- merson Mitchell and family. Youth clob elects ofilicers Charlie Thomas Liberal candidate indicates position Mrs Weary relates NDP election stand are%oncerned. • Agriculture and tourism are the twolargest industries in this area and need strong representa- tion in Ottawa in order to main- tain and improve growth and in- come. Rural Ontario needs a stronger liberal voice in a Lib- eral Government in Ottawa. • I believe that I could help the people -of this riding to get the h kinds of Federal programs that are so necessary if this area is to develop. Over the, pAst' few years we have watched two Air Force bases phased out, railway passenger service cur--„ tailed and little or no develop- ment of our seaway - port or A air ports. I belfeiie a stronger federal voice is needed to re- verse this trend. Young people who have grown up in this area where our. en- vironment is relatively polution free, want the , kind of, develop- ment that retains the rural nature of the . area but offers an alter-0' nate job opportunity which will use the education which they have acquired. They don't want to move to a metropolitan area where they have to commute through heavy traffic twice a'day. I believe I could work-with people c, both rural and urban to make this riding a still better place . to live by giving this area a strong federal voice. .j The IsTDP candidate in Huron ing, improved services to people Mrs. Shirley Weary, has indlca- particularly the aged, and in- ted, her position in the election creased purchasing power by tax in the following statement re- relief to low income families. , ceived by the Expositor:- There are positive steps Many serious problems face which can be taken to. meet the Canadians today. The greatest problems of agriculture and rur- issue of this campaign is, of al life. A New Democratic god-'' course, the unfair taxation sys- ernment would act to stabilize' tern which exists in our country. costs of production and make When the corporations and the farming/ more rewarding. , They - wealthy do not pay their fair would establish a Land Bank share, then the wage and salary CoMmission to purchase land of- earner 14 forced to carry an fered voluntarily/on the market at competitive,prices, and lease this land, °guaranteeing tenure, on the basis of nixed, with the op- tion to buy. Farm- costs would be lowered through tax reform, particularly of the capital gains tax as it applies to family farms. Producer-controlled- 'marketing boards would be established and legislation enacted to • preventa,_ dumping of agricultural products on the Canadian domestic mar- ° ket. Low-interest loans would be made available to people in- • terested in beginning farming. Lack of sensible planning has forced our young people to turn their backs on rural Canada and,,, head for the crowded cities. The NDP is determined iii reverse this trend and preserve the way of life of the family farm. Cana- dians should be able to choose the way in which they live. Consumers are facing almost unbelievable problems. Over half the price they pay for food products is made up of prpcessing packaging, and distribution costs. That is, the centiliter pays a great deal more for all the pretty patkaging that manufac- turers use to outsell their com- petitors. with such a wide range . of products to choose from and 't so many different sizes with no standardization, the consumer has difficulty deciding which brand of a product or which size bOttle or 'package gives the best value. Without protective I egis- lation and extensive education in consumerism, the average buyer must fend ler :himself. The NDP believes that an extensive prO- gram of education in consumer- ism from early childhood would help people buy wisely, under- stand the costs of credit-buying; and put an end to many of the * abuses in the market place. As well, -strong legislation - is ur- gently needed to protect consum- vs,, especially' where essential pr ducts such as, food and drugs
