Phone 900 THAR HW, BOWMANVILLE iL CANDIDATE our. In a short speech Mr, Fallis| had 2.| stated he was too old to properly | canvas the 'constittiency and thought that a younger man would make 2 better job of it. T. A. Reid remind- ed the gathering that Durham was once a Conservative stronghold, but for a number of years it had be represented by a Liberal and Bt iw no reason why the riding could not be redeemed. Milton J. Elliott was, therefore, elected by acclamation, Mayor Eliott was for a number of | years reeve of Darlington Township, "land was last year warden of the United Counties of Durham and Northumberland, In Comservative cir- cles it was' thought that his former record marks him as one of the strongest men in the riding. Thanks Convention In thanking-the convention for the faith in him Mr, : Elliott said that there must be the whole hearted co- operation of candidate and Conserva- tives in Durham to bring about the success of the party in the next el- ing industry would challenge 'that of the wor : Every, section he visited in Fe of his recent 3,400 mile he said, populated by a the trip eter- mined and courageous people who in). each respective district maintained that they were in the choicest section of the country. These communities were receiving help from the govern- ment to build schools and good roads and were fast becoming a great as- set to the country, Since the advent of fhe mol car the use of metal er, many hundred per cent. sf the last twenty-five years therc been more used than in all the years previous, Government Policy The Conservative goverminent he stated had set the policy of progress and was setting the destiny of the country, ¢ "Our motto should be Canada and nothing else. The rising generation should be imbibed with the spirit of progress and parents should pay more attention to the education of their children," He made passing reference to the Communists and warned the country to be on the alert for these disloyal citizens who were endeavoring to up- sect the ideals of British tradition, "We have seen what it has done to one country and should nip their ad- vance in the bud." "It is the intention of the Provin- cial Government to establish a re- search bureau and they have set a- side fifty million dollars to be spent RED, ROSE ORANGE PEKOE is extra good on the betterment of agriculture, me- chanics and electricity and to lead the world in science and invention. Also to give power" at cost so that indus- tries" will not" be handicapped by power' costs in 'the worlds markets." In conclusion Mr. McCrea said that the Ferguson government was worthy of support for 'their past record and achievement, He would convey to the premier the fact that by the turn out of Conservatives at this convention he' need have na fear as to the re- sult of the: election in Durham coun- ty. . Mr. William Clydesdale, organizer and secretary of the provincial Con. servative party spoke a few word in support of Mr. Elliott and thes a vote of confidence in the govern: ment at Queen's Park was unani mously carried. The meeting closes vith the singing of the National An. them, Little Doris was drawing a por- trait of her father. When she had labored . for some time she stopped and after seriously inspecting the likeness, exclaimed in disgust: "Oh, dear! I think I'll put on a tail and' call it a monkey." ection, At .- the of his speech the entire audience stood and ledged him. their support. General he Hughes, of Bowmanville, stated that if the candidate was successinl it would be the first time that a member of the Conservative party in Bowmanville, had been elected to parliament, Fred Bowen Fred Bowen, M.P., in the federal house at Ottawa, was the next speak- er, and asked all loyal Conservatives to give their support to 'Mr. Elliott, He criticized Premier King's attitude on the way he passively accepted the tariff proposals of the United Sites) WW government which he claimed were injurious to Canadian industries. He also stated that 'last year there was a trade balance in favor of the U.S.A. of the colossal 'sum of five hundred | BB million dollars, He was, he said, rizht behind the new candidate and felt sure the electorate would seturn him in the forth coming ballots, on, McCrea The president then rose to intro- duce the chief speaker of the day, the Hon. Charles McCrea, Minister of Mines in the Ferguson adminis- tration. Dr. Bonnycastle stated that the provincial premier could = have made no better choice for the mines rtfolio than when he chose Mr. cCrea, He added that the speaker was the popular member of the cab- inet, Mr. McCrea commended on the fact that the audience was an ex tremely large one for this busy time of the year. Everybody was expect ing some tangible remark that would give them the key to the date of the next election, but although they were disappointed as far as the date was concerned they had the satisfaction of knowing that it was likely to take place within: the next six months, or, as the minister repeatedly remarked, it would be either in the fall or the spring. He stated that he did not know himself and that one could rest assured that the prime minister knew what he was dog. He went on to tell, of his recent tour: through the province of Ontario which he aptly described the banner province of Canada. The province was, he said, the most prosperous in the Dominion and this could be traced to the un- tiring efforts of the pioneers who opened up the wilderness and made it fit for human habitation. The basic wealth of the country, he said, was phenominal and the huge sums of money spent and . accumulated ane nually was indication of the staple government that was at present con- trolling the province, In all the pro. ducts of the province last year were between eight and nine hundred mil- lion dollars, Aid to Agriculture The government had given great assistance to the agricultural indus- try and had placed this on a firm -footing that would compare favor- ably with any other industry. The highways which had been so much improved under the Ferguson admin- istration were the most outstanding in the Dominion, and the. province was looked as the guide to the oth- ers. The annual revenues was between 58 and 60 million dollars and refer- ring to the expenditure of this money, Mr. McCrea stated that not one cent. was Mis-spent and all depart- ments were under the supervision of capable and honest men. He described '| the premier as a man of great vision and was all the time looking ahead for the prospects that: will prosper the province. Mr, McCrea viewed Ontario as the pivotal province of the Dominion, a beautiful garden of 000 square miles which was three and one-third times -as' big as" the British Isles, He went on to give a picture of the northern part that is known as New Ontario, of the vast forests, rivers teeming with ey kind of fish, untold riches in i silver, '¢ oper and zine, and mighty water fal hich would later supply power for the many industries that in the course of a few years will be established there with numerous 'at- tractions to draw the tourists from our neighbours across the internas tional border, He stressed the import-' ance of the north as the place that will make Canada one of the richest nation in the world, "We are bless- ed with incomparable natural resour- ces and are making the most of them," he said, Northern Davelopment Sudbury as the greatest "mining | section in the world was visioned by Mr, McCrea, and he told of the great amount. of money" that was * being spent on advancing the district in the establishment of smelters -and refin- ers. One in that district would em- ploy nearly seven thousand men with a monthly payroll of 000, ~The steel used-in its construction was all made in Canada, and to carry away the smelter fumes there was a stack 510 feet high and the diameter at the top is forty-five feet. Villages were springing up every where, and were opening new trade markets which would consume millions of dollars worth' of old" Ontario. manu- factured The north "cotintry had also millions of acres living dorniant and 'when this was opened up there would be em- ployment for-thousatids andthe min Erp) "INCREASE ve OUR EARN] ©s by Shopping aft the .
