QUEBEC ELECTION '(By Elizabeth Eedy) A regime that rode into power in 1936 on a wave of popular dis- gust with the methods of the Tas. "chereau government nay ride out again next week if the people of Quebec fail to endorse the policies of Premier Maurice Duplessis, Union Nationale leader, who poses as the champion of French-Cana- dian liberty. ' If M, Duplessis is defeated at the polls October 25, it 'will mean that the people of Quebec believed his talk of 'provincial rights," federal" "tyranny", coming con- scription, to be just catch-words-- a smoke-screen to cover the ma- chinations of a regime said to be financially and politically bank- rupt. i er Climbing on the Band-Wagon If M. Duplessis' government is returned to office," we will have. evidence that he has made. suc- cessful capital out of French-Can- ada's traditional lack of desire to participate in war and its fear. of losing power to the Dominion Gov- ernment, As Jean-Charles Har- vey's French-speaking weekly "Le Jour" expressed it: "There will rally to M. Duplessis' side a crowd of political adventurers of every - shade -- separatist, Anglophobe, isolationtist, Laurentianist, sectar- ian, all the ragtag and bobtail of last-ditch nationalism in Quebec." In Bad Financial Shape .._M. Duplessis' calling of an elec- tion at this stressful time in Cana- dian life is branded by Federal Minister of "Justice Lapointe as "an act of national sabotage"-- against Canadian unity. Mr, La- pointe does not hesitate to say that the true-reason of this election is |__the unfortunate financial situation "in which the Quebec Government finds itseif. "They have spent Pro- vincial funds like drunken sailors," he says. (The funded debt of the" "Province had increased from $149,748,000 on June "0, 1936, to $286,000,676 on Marca 31 last). Mr. Lapointe infers that there are many millions of dollars in unpaid warrants in the hands of contract- _ "ors for Provincial works who have not yet been paid in cash. 3 Into Federal Arena This provincial struggle in Que- bec has.been carried into the fed- cral arena by members of Prime Minister King's.Cabinet who have _. been campaigning against M. Du- plessis.- Mr, Lapointe has stated that an election victory. for the. Union Nationale Government in Quebec would be his cue, and that of the other Quebec Ministers, to retire from the Federal Govern- ment.- ' If M. Duplessis is to be defeat- ed, there 'will have to be a big turnoyey of seats in Quebec's Le- gislativé "Assembly, The Opposi- tion at the moment consists of only 17 men ou of a total of 90 legisla- tors, These seventeen belong to three separate political parties: First, the official Liberals, surviy- ors, of the Taschereau regime led by *M. Adelard Godbout; second, the Action Lileral Nationale, - Liberals who are bry much op- posed to war participation, headed by M.

Near- ly all of thém are safe gunners. But in order to bring to"the attention of everyone and in the interest of making and keeping' gunning a safe sport, a set of rulés has been drawn up known as "The Ten Commandments of Safety." These have been devised after studies by sporting arms experts, . game officials, outdoor editors and others. 'They are believed to cov- er-every cssential. safety observ- ance which a gunner should obey. They are: Ten Commandments First Commandment: Treat ev- éry gun with the respect due to a loaded gun. This is the cardinal rule of gun safety. Second Commandment: Carry only empty guns, taken down or with the action open, into your automobile, camp and home. Third Commandment: Always be sure that-the barrel and action are - clear of obstructions. Fourth Commandment: Always carry. your gun so that you can control the direction of the muzzle even if you stumble, 4- Fifth Commandment: Be sure of your target before .you pull the trigger. : Sixth Commandment: Never point a gun at anything you do not want to shoot. Seventh Commandment: Never leave your gun unattended unless you unload it first. ; : Eighth Commandment: Never climb a tree or a fence with a- loaded gun. Ninth Commandment: Never shoot at a flat, hard surface or the surface of water. Tenth Commandment: Do not mix gunpowder and alcohol, Tomato Is Berry Strictly - speaking, the tonfato, or love-apple, is neither a true fruit: hor-'a vegetable, says the British Family Herald.
