' 'The meeting was the first called in the campaign of 'Louis Rader, (Con- servative candidate .for the riding for- merly held .bt1 the late Thomas Mc- Mil'lan'; Liberal.

ITh,ere was a !Great Divinity' which was greater than man's desires, said Mr. Spdito'n. His close friend, Tiho.ma's MdM;illan, had died and left the South Huron seat vacant. Always he and 'Mr. McMillan had cooperated, even though they had not seen eye to eye in political faith. Twoyears ago the people of Canada had chang- ed their physician. It wras* not fair malty to fi1l the air wi'th disease germs. ISo, he said, Pr,einder Bennett; the physician, should' be aided. The physi- cian had ',prayed kis ability when he had summoned Empire statesmen to- gether and led to new ideals. Even the Toronto Globe had •said he was one of the greatest leaders in the world, Opening his address Louis H. Railer, the Conservative candidate, recalled his friendship with the late !Liberal •nteanlber, He regretted the necessity for an election •but felt he, as a successful farmer and for 12 years a county official, could ably rep- resent ,the riding. Because it, was basically a farming county, a fartnier best .understood its 'needs, 'trial's alt! worries:' As a farm woman, .Mrs, Howard IFa'llis of Petedb'oro, declared she was independent but favored the Conser- vative party be.caus,e' it opposed all radicalism acid• retained a strong identity. It never bartered with other groups, never sought alliances, It -went to the country as a d'etersiinfed group at all times. Much had been said by Opposition speakers about the prefer'en'ces gained by the Iniperial 'Conlference, continued 'Mrs. FaIIis. They said that the Dunning budget could have acih•ieved mane. But it could not, she said. For instance, Brit- ish companies, were seeking informa- tion .about !Canadian commodities which were not dtsouss'ed by the ICoti,femence, This indicated a great in- centive started' by the •'Conference,. 'Cadada as a result stood on the verge of a new world of trade, perial Conference • will lie .erected! a great edifice of trade and: commerce 'Which .vsi11 Staond kb a nvoniume'ttt to the statesmen of blue British Ernpi:re, Hon, Dr. R,' (7. ;80amnian, 'Minister of !Railways told a gathering ,of elect°; s of South Huron ' ,when he fired the opening gunk of the federal byelecti;oh ;campaign' in the opera house, Exeter, s,pealcing to one of the largest audi- ences''ever seen in that hall'. A num- ber from;. ,Seaforth and di,s!trict were present, Bec'a'use "the Bennett Government has not changed its : mind on policy, conidllbions in the operation, of the agreements, Canada ' undertook to es-. tabl'i'slh-. a tariff' board. Before this board British manufacturer's: could make representations regarding Can- iadlais tariffs•, nut Canada had cans'id'- ered her industrialists before making any agreements. The's'e. agrlee'ments 'were the result of bh:e brilliance, .in- sight, in -sight, courage and. patriotism of the Prime Minister off Canada, .declared M'r. Manion. 'so there seems to be a different feeling in the .past few weeks," said Dr. Manion. "As a physician I see. the effect of the mind on the human body. It is true of .the body politic, I can s'ee the effect to- day of the mental attitude which the people af''C•airada have assumed since ed conditions in Canada when the •Bie,ene'tt Government entered office. They had known and ;found, he said, "extravagant hotels, exorbitnat ex- penditures and wild administration of Canada's 'wealth." And the Govern- inenit' had immediately sto•pned this splendin'g. The by-election, he said, of- fered the electors olf South Huron an opportunity to .put the stamp of appro•vall upon agreements .made by .Premier Bennett which had. never been extended farmers before. As one who had ,scan,ned:the agreements Made by the conference, he could say five- sixths of. their provisions were "tot the advantage of the agricultural por- tion of Canada's population." For this reason he was exceptionally glad to know that Louis Rader, the Govern- ment cand'id'ate, was a farmer "We see abnormal conditions •everywhere," Ile said. "Russia is in the hands o'f the Convmunista;. Japan and China are nearly at war. All the world is itc a state of serious ,pertunbation. Bit Canada will come out ahead of other n'a'tions, partly because we are a law- abiding people, because we are con- servative, and, I submit, .partly 'be- cau's'e of good government by s man of tremendous 'physical and personal strength and of exceptional ability," 'There were no terms, decla're'd Dr. 2danio•n, which could be too laudatory or praisewo'rth'y for Premier Bennett. He had exhibited an almost superhu- man ability to do •trem•end'aus' amounts o'f work. And to -day, he su'b'miitted, Premier Bennett was a "world figure," "Similarly we came into office knowing the Canadian National Rain - ways had undertaken commitments of $250,000,000 a year," he said, "We knew of this foolish, over -enthusias- tic adminstration. We d'id' 'not . inter- fere in ;;its conduct. We did not inter- fere with it ;politically. But we d'id stop this ridiculous, wild expend- iture." • The railway had built hotels 'tram coast to coast. It had built an un- necessary fifty million terminal at 'Montreal. It had built branch rail- way lines and 'bau'ght others, It had gone crazy in a flurry of extravagant unnecessary sp'en'ding, And Mr. Ben- nett's Governnnelt stopped it. 'Two years ago at the imperial Con- ference Premier '. Bennett had the courage to say that more than the ties of sen'ti'ment were needed to Bold the Empire together. He was criticized. Yet, right or wrong, the Ottawa Con- ference resulted, and IGroak'Britain de- serted its ,century -old free trade pol- icy. So, he said, the conference at Ot- tawa gathered amid, a cry of failure froth many nations. Yet: to -day, "we see a ai'atory, not only. for Canada .but far the Etii,pi,re, "(But," <declared Dr Manion, "re- member that time is necessary before we will see the results of these agree- ments which were evade at' the confer- ence, All these treaties must be ratifi- ed by the parliaments of the nations of the Empire, And. that cannot be done do a day or a week," Great Britain was °tie, grea'te'r. .i.tnporter of basic commodities, he explained.
