Class consciousness is having effect, It is significant that when Premier Drury made his speech at Grand Bend it was on one of the hottest days this section has experienced this summer. It kind of started things aboiling; and it will be some time before they get cooled down. Premier Drury who has been charged with the leadership of the Progressive party in Ontario has a- dopted a "broadening out" policy that appeals to many of the thinking men of to -day: J. J. Morrison pins his faith to the farmers sticking to-gether as a class and dominating the political field. Both leaders may have their views, but it iemairis for a convention cif Progressives to lay down a platform and. unless both of these leaders can get together on such a platform as may be adopted there will be a division that,sviil spell disaster to both.

Thus the ,Premier throws down the gauntlet to J. J. Morrison, declaring that so long as he remains head of the Government there cannot be dic- tation by any class or group. Speaking to over four thousand people gathered from the ridings of South Huron, East Lambton, North Middlesex and South Perth, he laid down the doctrine that any Govern- ment which tries to serve' a class is doomed. • organization, and ;a, class 'organiza- tion has its place. 13µt we cannot. lose or ,carry on a Government, a I u a I,,egislatllre as a class Government or a class £,egielature; We must }Ministration" that Mr. T� ergusou con. v, .n-; seated to the appointment as Go ez t 10 of 1 nezlt scales of all enilploYoe>.

He • himself, however, was a veteran io the farmers' anovement,. having tiee11 at, one time President of the Grange, Secretary in 1910 of the Canadian Council' of Agriculture, and was the first President of the United Farmers of °Ontario. He be- lieved that these movements had been ineffective because they tried to exercise political infl}ielice' along class lines. The later success of the U. F. 0. was due to the fact that the farmers were appealed to as citizens and not as a; class., Three years ago he expressed himself iii favor of broadening out. The - Labor mem- bers were already in touch with, the people, to desired to reach. "It means that the political;'neve- ment which started with farmers must expand to'take in many people who are not farmers and who believe as they do. "Mr. Morrison has charge of the Farmers' organization. T11at organ- ization has not,fulfilled its' -useful- ness by all means. It should be re- tained, strong and virile and active.

He denied that the ` Government was a partner in the race -track gambling business because of the new tax, any More than it , was a partner with crithinals becauseof the revenue - of fines'? He maintained that the tax was put on for two per- poses: (1) to raise renenue, and, (2) to .discourage betting. Both of these objects were being realized, and, as he pointed out. the tax was imposed, not at the expense of the poor family, from whose mouths the money to buy food was taken after the money had been lost, but at the expense of the person who received the winnings. • customary y Mr. saying' of the Mr. d Ferguson's that to the lly. I think; so cerned, never benefit; done in a record said peened group e aslc of Pro-r- wthat promises to ad, elieved under sound cy and One feature of the Government's work which he thought should be widely understood was the good roads program: -A fundamental con- dition was that the policy should be applied equitably, and so the prin- Frovincial roads which served ciple had been laid down that on through 'traffic the Government would contribute towards the cost of building and maintaining those roads in the proportion that the through traffic bore to the local traf- fic. Thus in the four classes of roads, the Province was contributing 80 per cent. of the cost of Provincial subur an roads; 60 per cent. toward county suburban roads; 40 percent. to coun- ty roads and 20 per cent. to township roads. These' roads were not being built at a cost oil the` Exchequer of the Province, but,,were fivaoced out of the revenue' from motor vehicle licenses, which under new legislation was being capitalized on'c., 20 -year basis. In addition to the money td be raised in this way, there would be. available each yeas for maintenance $1,000 for every mile of Provincial suburban road, or $1,500,000. Her ' approved, of the policy of the depart- ment in constructing the road for permanence, and prophesied that at the end of the investment; period of the road debentures, the highways now 1 •'r pot ig built would be adequate to the needs of -that generation. Coupling .up his remarks about racing with criticisms of the Govern- ment's ' Hydro -radial policy, Mr. Drury declared that much of the en- mity which the Gov ern inent had earned on account of the racing tax real' had ad been inspired by its atti- tude towards radials. 3 Ie reaffirmed his belief that the proposecl Hydro - radial seb.eznes had been overdone, and itWas notp � v 5 good l.l.sttless that: anymunicipality zului.,tpality desiring a radial line should conte along.and demand that the Government guaraiitee the bonds. When the Government guar- antee was withdrawn the old radial legislation was non -effective. and, a new law had to l e passed which gave the municipalities power to go ahead and tau:lace their own projects. A- gain, he fatal lse was opposed to the rr. t llsl.ilr• et publicly owned: steam onelhe . fe,itt i i7ub- t.rlr ,ov,,.od electric railways.

In the stillness of a nlidsuinnlei`: afternoon, the sun beating down on an expectant and perspiring multi- tude, Lake Huron itself languid un- der the enervating:heat, the'Premier announced his decision. On a silent, earnest, undemonstrative crowd his words fell. There were no interrup- tions; and as.the purport of that de- cision became understood rounds of applause broke' forth. "You have an organization," he declared, "that organization must be kept pure. Do not try to throw or interject politics into that organiza tion. You have a political party. Keep your organization for its own purpose. Get yourselves educated through that organization and let your political party do the only thing it can do, and that is go out and seek men like minded with us, whether town people or country people, and in that way we ,are bound to get the best of advancement and soundest government.
