PuingVivian Act Due ta the local election luil which, apparently, in but the iorerunflar ai a real siorm, out Liberal reporter decided this week ta 1»e what was dolnq along his party limes. Sa. ho intervlewed MoL H. Stcfples, Liberal Association President, at his home near Orano. Mr. Staples. 11k, cil Liberals, found his party arganizatian in a state of unpreparedness for the surprise election annaunce- ment by premier Drew. Not being the party in power, the Lib- rcial aeafauxid thermelves short ai funds-to stage an ail out battîs. They were also awed when the Conservatives announc- ed that they were running a comp<ratively unknown man who was the holder ai the Victoria Cross. Things didn't look toa qaad for the Liberals. However, poitical parties are quick ta recaver from even the greatest surprises and right naw the Liberals of Durham countv are preparing for the greatest fight of their career, accord- ing ta Mr. Staples. Funds are gradually boing contributed by local people; the feeling of awe has completely passed with the nomination of Garnet Shield af Cavan as the Liboral candidate and the battle i8 on. In Mr. Shield, the president feols the Liberals have a worthy candidate for the legisiature. He is a Durham county man, born and raised here. Me is public spirited, possessing considerable abilitv along govornment linos, a trait which hoe showed with great success as a Cavan township councillor and as its Reeve for several years. At the moment, lie is Township Assessor and the owner of a 200 acre farm. Tall, gaunt and rugged hoe is s;nr-e in everything hie says and does. Me le intensely interested in education and did excellent work with the Counties Council committee in charge of that function. Always interested in young people, hoe has beon superintend- ent of the Sunday School in Mount Pleasant for 20 years and was also connected with basebail and soccer teams in earlier years. Me was forced into accepting the Liberal nomination and bas fia personal political ambitions other than ta see that his upright princîples are not off ended by any gavernment of whichhle sa part. Mr. Staples believed that the Liberals and quite a number of non-Liberals were boginning ta realizo that Major Foote, the Conservative candidate was not quit. the sure-winner the Con- servatives thought he was when they nominatod him. The Victoria Cross is a wondoriul decoration and Mr. Staples was laud in bis praiseofa any man who bas won it, but lie failed ta see how it qualified a man ta be a member ai parliament. The V.C. is awarded for personal courage, mat for personal ability nor oxperionco in governmental lines. He feels that the Conserv- atives are tryimg ta do the same as they did with Dr. Vivian, who was elected, and twa years ago loi t Durham county stranded wben hoe accepted a post in a university and forgot bis political obliga- tion ta Durham county. During those two years, Durham was flot represented in the legislature and the Conservatives lot the county down badly when they did not force Dr. Vivian's retire- ment and caîl for a by-election. Apparemtly, people don't forget nar forgive such occurrences, according ta Mr. Staples. To furthor support this contention, Mr. Staples states that ho bas been iniormed that Major Foote lait a job with the Chaplain service which was paying $4,500 a year ta accept the Conserva- tivo nomination in Durham-a position which would bring himn $2,500 as a member ai parliament. Surely, hoe said, thore le nmre- tbing aut ai lino li such a rnave. A great church man hirneeli, Mr. Staples went an ta say that hoe can fot understand how Major Foote, who is a minister, could roconcilo himseli ta fallowing Cal. Drew's policies concern- ing liquor. le Major ,Foote in favor ai the evident Drew policy ai extending the liquar and beer autlets throughout the province witbout the peaple ai those areas having anything ta Say in the inatter? If hoe isn't, how can ho run on a Conservativo platfarmi and be sincere, hoe wanted ta know. Sa far as I can see, contlnued Mr. Staples, Major Foate han been nominated li Durham county rather than in somne other couty bocause the Conservativos considor this riding a sure thing. They are going ta get tho surprise of their lives in this election bocause if every Liberal and evory thinking persan will work and vote for Garnet Shield and remember whilo they are doing it that the Conservatives have playod us for suckers too long. the Liberals will win. -Advt. * I KING'S TAXI 5 heated cars - Passengers insured 24 hour service * CALL US FOR PROMPT SERVICE TELEPHONES: Days: Phone 561.
