Daily, reports that a couple from his community recently visited Niagara Falls and experienced an incident which made the trip "a bit more special". Seems that Earl and Marion Breslin had decided to have dinner at the Skylon Restaurant. A couple ahead of them asked for reservations for two, but were advised that the restaurant was not making reservations for less than four . , whereupon the couple turned to the Breslins and asked, since they were alone also, if they would object to sitting with them. This was agreed upon and the foursome made their way to the He said McKinley's future within the party was assured as he was one of the 'keystones and cornerstones." "You should he proud of his record on Parliament Hill," he told the Huron voters, Danforth said there was a sense of insecurity across the country and a general alarm of what the future may be. Saying that many were alar- med with the philosophy of the present government, he added that much of the alarm was coming from Liberals who would now support the Progressive Conservatives because their own party had gone too far to the left towards socialism under Trudeau. "The time has come to change the direction away from irresponsibility and . per- missiveness," he said, "and back to good,sound and simple business principles." He charged that many of the porgrams by which the Liberals gave away tax dollars were ridiculous, and said people "should get wages for work, not for play." Under the Liberal government headed by Prime Minister Trudeau, he noted that Canadians have the highest taxes in history, the greatest number of unemployed, the highest interest rates and the greatest sense of disunity. "We can't allow them to have a mandate to continue to govern Canada," he said, He promised that the PCs would institute programs which provided incentives for people to expand, save and build estates that can be passed on from generation to generation. There would be jobs for all Canadians who wish to work and it would be possible for "any hard working, dependable Canadian" to own his own home. The latter would be achieved by eliminating the 11 percent tax on building materials, curtailing land speculation, and lowering interest rates. He drew his loudest round of applause from the partisan audience when he said the present welfare system is wrong when a man on welfare can earn more than a man with a steady job. Danforth charged there was no supervision for the Opportunities for Youth program, and while he said the concept was good, outlined examples of waste in the program. One such example was a grant for a church promoting devil worship, while a request for assistance by the Salvation Army had been turned down. He also reported a chap in Toronto was given $45,000 to produce and travel the country with com- munist plays and ended his discourse on the subject by being highly critical of the fact that programs receiving less than $25,000 were not audited. "We're going to cut some fat off the top," the Kent MP stated top of the well-known tourist attraction. "So far this is hardly unusual," the newspaper article related, "but when the two couples were seated the Breslins learned their dinner companions were Mayor and Mrs, Jack Delbridge of Exeter,• Ontario, Canada, a community 150 miles west of Niagara Falls and 100 miles north of Detroit". While the couple from "The Holly City of America" ap- parently enjoyed the trip to Niagara 'Palle and the company of Mayor Delbridge and his wife, the trip had a less pleasant aspect for the Exeter couple: On the way home they were involved in a motor accident, although neither was injured. rather emphatically in con- eluding his Oration. He was thanked by Exeter lawyer Elmer D. Bell, QC, who also took the opportunity to predict that the Progressive Conservatives would win the election, Parish of Exeter & Huron Park TRIVITT MEMORIAL ANGLICAN CHURCH Rector: Rev.

McKinley again candidate • • With a winner being a foregone, conclusion, the Huron Progressive Conservative Association nomination didn't have any surprises, but it cer- tainly had plenty of optimism. In nominating Robert McKinley to once again carry the party's colors into the upcoming federal election, Goderich lawyer Jim Donnelly predicted that not only would the riding send McKinley back to Ottawa, but that he would be sitting on the government, side of the house, Donnelly said he had been involved in 11 nominations in Huron and the winner had gone on to win 11 elections in the t iding. "We'll round that out to a dozen tonight," he predicted at the meeting held in Clinton, Wed- nesday. Ile paid tribute to McKinley'S work during his previous two terms and said the October 30 election would be "a gut elec- tion." "People aren't going to be mesmerized by a man of straw created by an advertising agency," lie added, in reference to the sweep recorded by Prime Minister Trudeau and the Liberals in the last election. McKinley, pointing to the experience he had gained in his almost seven years in Ottawa, said his first priority was looking after the problems of his con- stituency, lie said Mr. Trudeau had betrayed the trust placed in him by the people of Canada four years ago and questioned what type of country Canada would be if it continued in the same direction as Trudeau has been leading it. The Huron MP noted that the government was still losing the battle against inflation and unemployment was continuing to, rise, He cautioned that the integrity of Canada "will continue down the drain". if the present government was allowed to continue. McKinley also explained that it took $10 billion to run the country when Trudeau started and it now takes $16 billion. Noting that the Liberals knew how to "split the pie," he said "it's time someone was con- cerned with the people who fill the pie up." The Hon. C. S. MacNaughton, who introduced the guest speaker, also took time to make an election prediction, claiming that Bob Stanfield will win the election. He said one of the reasons was Paul 1-Iellyer's defection from the Liberals to the Conservatives. Earlier in the day, Hellyer had met with the PC Businessmens' Association and Mr. Mac- Naughton said he had been greeted with a tremendous amount of enthusiasm.
