The C. N. R. is One of the world's greatest transportation, systems. Its length of
track alotle„entitles it to that distinction but itschief claimrests upon the
natureand extent of the services it renders. While entering practically
cvety , important centre in Canada it also serves widely: diversified and
distant areas,'and in very many instances is the , sole agency providing
railway Fac fides» R
The C. N, R. is a .large direct employer of labour, and indirectly, by virtue of the
nature of its freight and other services, also enters importantly and indis-
pensably into the commercial end industrial activities of the Dominion ...
creating new wealth « ..distributing' raw and manufactured goods , .
enabling more employment and wages to be provided.
Notwithstanding the sparsely populated condition of much of the territory from
which' the C N. R. obtains its freights of grains, minerals, forest. products,
etc., its charges for haulage are very -Tow ... Canadian railway freight
rates are probably the lowest in the world. On an average the_C. N. R.
receives less than one cent for hauling a ton of freight one mile,
Of every .dollar of revenue received the C. N. R. pays more than one half to its
employees as wages, and it purchases every year many millions of dollars
worth of Canadian made or produced materials. The C. N. R. also pays
in the course of a year over six million dollars in 'various taxes.
These facts, although thus briefly stated, are of tremendous importance to Canada
and Canadians. They are here presented in the hope that greater patronage
will follow a wider appreciation of the part this great railway system is
performing in the commerce and development of the Dominion .• .. and
of its vast potentialities for future service. Standing as we are at the begin-
ning of an upward swing in b ess generally, renewed and enlarged
opportunities to use transportation' facilities present themselves- The
C. N. R. is ready and anxious to serve ... efficiently and economically. Its
departments embrace passenger and freight transportation, express,
telegraphs, steamships and hotels.

During the present season .tbe C. N. R. is pro-
viding special fares and excursions between points
throughout Canada. These are exceptional travel
bargains. The nearest C. N. R. Agent will be
glad to give full particulars.

"When I 'fought against the packing
house combines seven years ago it was
an unpopular *eve. Today It is a pop-
ular one," he sada. "Ill leave it with
the farmo s of the county: I love to serve
but If it is not the wish of the people
Fii love just as well to retire," the
speaker asserted. ilie was the leader in
the milk investigation, he claimed, :and
we got a peek into the mutter.
"They say Mr., Bennett 18 'a Mussolini,

Is : cohiidence as rawh as B. B. Ben-
nett. Be is boss and I say God help any
business where- the-bossisnot boss," Mr.,_
Spat= declared with much gusto. Mr.
Bennett was, the Maxi who appointed the
Price Spreads Committee and told them
to investigate anything they saw fit and
the money would be provided. A slight
diffculty arose when Nor. Bennett was
unable to :address the, Retail Merchants
Association and' Mr. Stevens went in his
stead. There was a little furore (not
between Mr. Bennett and Mr. Stevens)
However Mr. Stevens handed .in his re-
signation and the Premier refused to
accept it and so Mr. Stevens came back.
Later Mr. Stevens resigned again as a
result of an argument between he and
some other cabinet members and this
,time Mr. Bennett accepted the resigna-
tion," said the speaker. •
"Before the convention meets tomor-
row night I want it know.p that I am
notafrai'd to say where I stand. I have
been greatly in sympathy with Mr, Ste -
...item -let h3iif-Stand'
inmy way," Mr. Spotton :announced.
"Many people give, me credit for
starting the Price Spreads Oommittee.
I appeal to you. YOu know that on
many 'occasions I have had the . courage
to stand up and oppose the government
oh subjects which I felt you would want
me to oppose them. I have no quarrel
with Mr. Stevens at 'a11," he admitted.
"I wish to resent a question put to me
by a Goderich roan who claims to be an
.Independent," Mr. Spotton went on to
say. The question was, "too you think
there is any collusion between Bennett
and Stevens." -"They are both working
toward the same, end,"' replied the Con-
servative member. "If no one party has
a majority in the 'House and Mr. Stev-
ens has the commanding position I will
support safe, sane -legislation by any
party.
Concerning the railways Mr. Spotton
accused the Liberal Government of hav-
ing pa:alleled and paralyzed the rail-
ways in Canada. "You see truck after
truck on our highways carrying goods
that used to go by rail." The . railways
were used as a political football by the
Liberals, Mr. Spotton claimed.
In the course of his address Mr. Spot -
ton let 1t be known that he -was neither
in favor of amalgamation of railways
nor a National Government.
The next question, Mr. Spotton admit-
ted. was.. not,e4 popular_one. He _was
asked by_ the temperance forces of the
distract to make a move towards legisla-
tion against the beverage rooms. The
Ontario Government, the speaker de-
clared, said that no more licenses would
be issued for beverage rooms until the
status of the Canada Temperance Act
was determined. Some hotel keepers
with better hotels than 'those who had
already been granted licenses were un-
able to procure the permit.
Mr. Spotton and a number of others
went to Mr. Bennett and asked that the
validity and status of the Canada Tem-
perance Act be cleared up. The speaker
said he demanded action on the ques-
tion. A decision that the Act was in
force in Ontario *as handed down. He
told his audienee that &9% of
of Huron County supported that Act in
the beginning. "And then! 'a little two

can't have the Act you voted for." "Is

The speaker then meds : the IiolicY

wheat at a\ storage cost of $24,000,000
a year, his , target, While Australia
and - Argentina were bonusing their

Wheat growers and finding markets
for their wheat, Mr. 'Bennett was car-
ryitig out this trade strangling policy,
"said Mr. Gardiner.
Canadians today are searching for
a government thatwill throw down
the trade barriers. Our tariff system
today is- unstable and we should re-
vert to the constitution of regulations
whereby the tariff is set and cannot
be changed by anyone in a ,,single ses-
sion, was the speaker's opinion. With
a government, that will trade and co-
operate with other countries in power
our -problems of unemployment and
lack of markets would soon disap-
pear.
Mr. Gardiner paid tribute to the
people of his native county in this his
first address to them. Then he gave
a short history of the life of the "Lib-
eral,leaider, Rt. lion. W. L. Mackenzie
Kinar.
That the difficulties of Canadian
people had been made a great deal
more outstanding as a result of the
narrow nationalism of the Conserva-
tive government of the year 1930
which sprit carried the germs of
war, economic unrest and depression
was the feeling of the Saskatchewan
Premier.-
Premier." Re proffered the Liberal
policy of better trade relationships
between the nations in direst contrast
to the Conservative policy. Only a
mutual understanding, or a visitation
df"tlieTiorrors4 oi'Wet; a act% -as a
remedy for the international misun-
derstandingS that act asvehicle for
depressions, the speaker commented,
and I have no doubt that you world
ehoose . the 'more peaceful slower
method, Nevertheless we have., but a
choice of two thin��s.
He urged his aid fence to study the
comparison
f
rl
pa , :on offered bythe Bennett
policy, which was put, into effect in
1080 and was specially worked out
for the farmer to drake protection
work for him, and the Liberal record
of Mr,,, King,
In closing ' Mr. Gardiner left with
his audience a statement of Mr.
King's that he will give stable gov-
ersunent. ^
Mr. Deachman in his address atm -
sed the' fact that Mr,' Stevens, who
for 20 years has been an ardent Con,
servativo now switches directly about
and comes out as a reformer ----thew
man who fought against reciprocity
in 1911.
Mr. Deachinan quoted excerpts
from two speeches made by Mr.. Ste-
vens, the first in 1930, the theme of
which was that if Mr. `Bennett's poll.
des went into effect the position of
the country would bo greatly
strengthened, the second in 1934 i
which Mr. Stevens stated that he°
could scarcely believe such conditions
existed in Canada, so deplorable were
they. '
The speaker claimed that without a
doubt, the Stevens candidate in North
Huron would be a Tory "because no
man who follows Mr. Stevens can be
anything but a Tory.
He gave a detailed account of the
achievements of the Liberal party
with respect to the reduction of debt
and' taxation and the increase of
trade.
With the coming in of the Conser-
vative government, debt and taxation
started on an upward trend and £he
amount of Canada's trade grew gra-
-dually-less; •nceording....to- Mt-:- Deiibh='
man, and thus we ,have -lard times
today. Trade proportions which
amounted`.° t+ , $1.00,0000900 in 1930
werecut to half that amount owin,i
too the high tariffs of the Bennett
government., he claimed;
Mr, Spotton was accused by 'Mr.
Deachman ofcopying from him rh *
radio address in„which 'the . ;speaker
had, claimed that the tariff 'barrier
against Great Britain should; be. law-
'erect. In .rahling the unheard of
heights the tariff on agricultural Ina.-
,plements, Mrs. Bennett had broken
every tradition of the Conservative
party was the contention' of Mr,
Deachman.. The Tories of the Uni-
ted . States and other . countries are .
the : men who had raised the tariff
against Canada". Even after the
Canadian dairymen had lost their .
market in the United States, Mr.
Bennett had raised the tariff on
cream separators, declared the speak-
er.
Mr. Spotton voted for measures in-
troduced by Mr. Bennett that gave
just the opposite effect to what that
gentleman had promised when he of-
fered the people a market for their
farm products, a stable ,tariff and
stable employment.
Mr. Deachman brought his address
to a close by declaring most forcibly
that the Liberal government would
do away 'with the excessive tariffs of
the present government and thereby
put a stop to the strangling of the
trade of the Dominion. °

'The

Supreme Court of Canada he sent it to
the Privy Council. "Let me tell you
frankly that the reason for the failure of
the temperance forces is b'ecause they

preached elsewhere,
The Liberals have attacked Mr. Ben-
nett in a cruel way, said Mr. Spotton.
With regard -to the farmer's plight, the
speaker stated that he had promised to
be a special pleader for Agriculture. "I
was one of the men who asked the gov-
ernment to get into the Farm Loans
business," said Mr. Spotton. At present
the rate 'is 5% but that is not stationery
and the rate may be from 31/1 to 4%.
The majority of debts that people have
today were contracted in good years,
that is years of prosperity. Today the
young farmers are burdened—where can
the young farmers go when their labors
are not paying their .way. Rather than
see these X nS. people driven fr21P their
ljmrnsy the government passed the F`ar-
mer's Creditors Arrangement Act. This
Act, Mr. Spotton claimed, has saved
$100,000 in his own constituency since
being endorsed. Similar savings have
been made in a number of other coun-
ties in the• Province.
The candidate asked the question,
"What would the Liberal pioneers say if
they knew that there are no men left
