Kiseh-Thompson
A. pretty wedding was; solemn-
ized in North Street United chur-
chi Goderich, last Saturday, June
1, when, Sandra day Thompson
became the Wide of Wallace Wal-
ter Kisch, RCAF Station Clinton.
The bride, who is a daUghter of
Mr, and Mrs, Alex Thompson,
GUderich, has been employed with.
the Clinton. Community Credit Un-
ion. Her husband is the son of
Mrs. Cecil Hansen and the late
Walter Kisch, Sangudo, Alta.
'Rev, A. D. Dustace. officiated.
Given in marriage by her father,
the bride was lovely in a ballerina
length gown of net dyer satin with
Chantilly lace jacket and inserts
conditions and will if given a
chance, work for the betterment
of Canadians and Canadian com-
panies. When a firm goes on
spending more than it makes it
is heading for bankruptcy and
that can happen to a nation. In
1956 the value of the Canadian
goods sold abroad was $4,862,-
000,000; in the seine year Canada
purchased goods from foreign
countries worth $5,712,000,000.
The foreign debt was thus $850,-
000,000, In fact each year for the
past three years Canada's trade
deficit has been almost • double
that of the previous year. Of
course exports have gone up also.
In 1956 exports were 11.2 percent
up from 1955. But over the same
period our imports were up 'by
21.2 percent, The largest trade
deficite was with the U.S.A. In
1954 the value of goods we pur-
chased from the U.,S. was 594
Million more than the value of
the goods sold to them. In 1955,
the figure was up to 840 Million.
Last year it was up to 1,288 mill-
ion. To my mind this is serious
business. Regardless of the fact
it has been drawn to their atteri-
tion many times, the Liberal Gov-
ernment is doing nothing about
The other day the Hon. Lester
Pearson said in a speech that he
thought ,* something should be
done about it. C. D. Howe was
asked what he planned to do
about it. He said as far as the
Department oft Trade and Com-
merce is concerned, we plan to
take no steps. Finance Minister
Walter Harris, when asked, rep-
lied that his Department wasn't
planning to do any more than
that of Mr. Howe, The fact is as
a nation We are mortgaging our-
selves. We are,importing Foreign
Capital which is steadily buying
up our assets, our mines, our oil
wells, our manufacturing plants.
The U.S. interests are assuming
more and more control over Can-
ada's wealth both present and
future.
The Liberal Government is tax-
ing our people out of world trade
and heading the country into
bankruptcy.
The• Canadian 21/2 percent Vic-
tory Loan tBonds are • now only
worth $84.60; the 9th Victory
Loan Bond is now worth $88.25,
your dollar only 50 cents. I hope
on the 10th of June the Canadian
people will come to life, realizing
what is going on. •
Now, a word about Agriculture,
the forgotten people of Canada by
the Liberal Government. Diefen-
baker Policy is a fair share for
the farmer. Agriculutre and its
welfare is a basic cornerstone.
We will endeavor to develop
wherever possible effective trade
agreements with other countries.
The 'Conservatives if elected on
June 10th will ease the Palm
Credit situation. We recognize
the need for a complete investig-
ation into the spread between pro-
ducers and consumer prices of
various farm products.
We will appoint a Royal Com-
mission to study this inequality
and disclose to the consuming
public full and complete, inform-
ation 'on this very important mat-
ter and on the basis of its rec-
ommendations enact Legistlation
accordingly.
These are a few of the things
that .can be done by a change of
Government without any increase
in Taxation. Vote Cardiff, for

VIROLIVI ANDREW Y. MCLEAN,
L.liBMAL ..0ANPIPATEZ
The few days remaining before
Huron riding citizens will east
• their ,ballots provide an Opporturi,
ity to arrive at a decision as to
Which of the two candidates .can
;best serve the interests of Huron
riding, The decision; must take in-
to, consideration not only the quali-
fications of the candidates thear-
Selves, but also the records and
promises of the parties they re-
present.
The.Conservative, or as it is
now called, the Diefenbaker, par-
ty record is plain, There are
Many who recall the complete col-
lapse of trade of the agricultural
economy the last time .Censerva-
tiVe policies were in operation.
The Diefenbaker prograni, as of-
fered to you this election, has, as
its main feature, high protection,
'the very same feature that proved
so distastrous in the past. In ad-
dition, 'of course, there is offered
to the farmer what is termed "ad-
equate. parity," This can only
mean bureaucratic control of farm
operations—something the Liberal.
party believes to be not only un-
desirable, but something the ay:-
.erage Canadian farmer wishes to'
avoid at all costs.
The .only other feature of the
Diefenbaker program we need.
Mention is the extent to which
promises 'have entered into the
appeal being made by Mr. Diefen-
baker and those who support him.
Promises now made total at
least one billion, five hundred mil-
lion dollars, your dollars, of cour-
se, because from where else can.
money come with, which to carry
out these prorniseS? These prom-
ises of vastly increased expendi-
tures proposed by the Conserve-
tives, if kept, can only result in
you, the taxpayer, being called on
'to pay additional income tax. But
that is not all, The Conservatives
say, at the 'same time, they will
alSo reduce taxes. Now we all
know eitpenditures can be Increas-
ed, or taxes can be lowered, but
you can't do both at the same
time,
The Liberal record, oil the other
hand, is one of progress. Liberal
policies have resulted in an in-
creased trade, until today Cana-
da's per capita trade is the high-
est of any country in the world.
Canada's trade with the United
Kingdom is the greatest in his-
tory, Canada's standard of living
is the equal et any in the world,
There is a problem, of course, The
great development that is occurr-
ing in Canada has resulted in a
temporary price cost spread which
is affecting the farmer. This is a
situation which the Liberal party
recognizes and which it is pledged
to correct. As your Liberal candi-
date, I am concerned about the
situation, but am satisfied that the
very conditions that are causing
the squeeze will, as the develop-
ment is completed, be the means
of eliminating the problem. Cer-
tainly the Huron farmer must be
assured of a return the equal to
that received by any other' ele-
ment in the community. This can
and is being done by creating con-
ditions whereby there'is a continu-
ing market .,for Canadian farm
products within Canada.
The Liberal party makes no
promises other than to say it will
continue to administer the affairs
of the country in such a way that
individual initiation continues to
be encouraged, that Canada con-
linues to development, and that
the standard of living all Cana-
dians enjoy continue ..to be im-
proved. Expenditures will not be
increased, except as national de-
velopment requires, and taxes will
continue to be lowered as produc-
tivity rises. For instance, in the
past four years, taxes have been
lowered by $485,000,000, or ap-
proximately $30.00 for each man,
woman and child in the country.
The interests of Huron riding
can best be served by a member
who thinks constructively, who
leaks to the future; a member who
gets things done; who can present
your problems in an effective man-
ner to the end that they may be
solved. I suggest you want some-
one to represent you who is sin-
cerely interested in assisting the
people of Huron riding with their
problems, no matter what their
politics may be. Someone who can
speak to and is listened to by the
Government of the day. It is of
no assistance to criticize, to tear
down, unless a constructive al-
ternative is presented. Blaming it
on the government does not help
the people of Huron.
It is for these reasons, then,
that I suggest to the voters of
Huron 'riding that their interests
may best be served by voting Lib-
eral on Monday. Why take a
chance?
MESSAGE TO THD ELECTORS
ZROIV.r DISTON
171ROGIIDSSTM CONSERVATIVE
CAM:1MA= FOR THE
HURON RIDING:
During this election campaign
Canadian unity has been mention-
ed many times, The Prime Min-
ister has taken the role of the
Great Mediator of national unity.
Let us look at the facts as they
exist today, Uncle Louis, as he is
so often called, no longer can
make claim to National Unity.
Even Quebec, the one Province
which through the years could be
counted on' to stand behind the
Prime Minister have now kicked
over the traces and according to
reports will not any longer be a
solid block for the Liberal Party.
In this election, when the Prime
Minister made his official visit to
Manitoba, the Prime Minister of
that Province was not among the
Prime Minister's welcomers.
The Prime Minister has brand-
ed a new firm in Ontario, "Feast-
Diefenbaker," a better deal for
Ontario, at •the expense of the
other nine Provinces. Not much
hope for unity in those remarks.
At one time Quebec was protect-
ed against the rest of Canada,
But now the tide has turned and
the rest of Canada are to be pro-
tected against Ontario.
Sir John A. MacDonald, the
founder of 'Confederation, was a
man of wide experience and vis-
ion and did more to unite Canada
than any other man. The present
Prime Minister has done more to
dis-unite Canada than any other
man. If this trend is allowed to
continue for another one or two
Parliaments Canada will be the
hot bed for Communism ,grehter
by far than has any European
State.
The Emergency Powers Act,
when is came up for revision a
year ago, was another example of
the attitude of the Liberal Gover-
nment when they fought to make
the Act permanent. They have all
the powers that were granted
them in war time. The only con-
sideration the Opposition got out
of the debate was, the Bill must
come ,back •to Parliament every
three years for revision.
The C. D. Howe statement that
Canada is bursting at the seams,
simply means the seams are leak-
ing so badly our wealth and birth-
right are leaking into the United
States at a fast clip. We have
now over 3000 U.S. owned subsid-
iaries operating in Canada and
only 2% Of the executive man-
agement in the hands of Canad-
ians. These subsidiares are do-
ing so well that our trade bal-
ance with the United States is
over 1900 Million Dollars deficit,
Heavy taxesand succession
duties are breaking down Canad-
ian estates and businesses. U.S.
capital walks in and, picks up the
bargains as the stock is thrown
on the market in order to pay
succession duties.' With the U.S.
laws making capital losses deduc-
tible U.S. capital can buy out a
Canadian company and run it at
a loss to beat Canadian business.
The Progressive Conservatives
under Diefenbaker can see,,these
