TORONTO OFFICE "2 18 Bond Building, 66 Temperance Street. Telephone ' § Adelaide 0107. H. D. Tresidder, representative. WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 21st, 1981 Myr. King and Myr. Sifton The annual meeting of the Ontario Lib- * eral Association at London has been looked orward to for some time as an event of major importance in the political life of the province. This feeling of anticipation was ' ® inspired by the expectation that Rt. Hon. W. L. MacKenzie King, leader of the federal Liberal party and former premier, would have a statement to make on the disclos- ures which were made during the Beau- *® harnois inquiry at the last session of Par- LJiament, in which some very damaging evid- ence regarding contributions to the Liberal campaign funds were made. 3 Last night, Mr, King made his statement. + In some respects it differed little from what i he had to say in parliament on the Beau- ~ harnois question. In reiterating his de- »»mand for a royal commission to investigate "the whole Beauharnois deal, and to 20 even further, and investigate all contributions to political party funds, he expressed what has been in the minds of a large body of . © people in this country ever since the parlia- I. mentary inquiry was brought to an abrupt close. There has been a feeling that there 'was a political motive for suddenly halting "4 the inquiry, that the whole story had not been told, and Mr, King will have strong 4 | "support in his demand for a royal commis- sion, . It was disappointing, however, that he . apparently did not have the courage to op- enly condemn those of his own party who had been proven guilty of flagrant abuses in the collection of campaign funds. He would have strengthened himself as a lead- __ er had he taken the opportunity to purge © his party of the offenders, but possitly per- sonal friendships were too strong for him. At any rate, he remained silent on that pint. ~ Rather did he try to condone what had been done, and to draw a fine distine- tion between what might he expected of a ' party while in power and what might be considered permissible for the same party :t when trying to get into power. This plea * cannot be taken seriously, and must rather shock those who have a firm belief in con- 1 tinuity of party responsibility and honor, * whether in power or out of power. It was left to Harry Sifton to utter the § words of condemnation which ought to have *t come from the lips of his leader. In a state- i ment to the press, after he had "cen re- fused speaking privileges from the conven- tion platform, he condemned in no uncer- - tain terms Senator McDougald, who played "an ignoble part in the Liberal campaign | fund scandal, expressed regret that he had i! not been read out of the party, and de- ' manded the cancellation by the present gov- 281 ernment of the order-in-council on which if! the Beauharnois development is based. Mr. Sifton, of course, has been connected with other power development plans, and from that standpoint may not he altogether disinterested party. Nevertheless he can still be commended for having the courage fo break with his party leader on what is issue involving the morality of political rties in Canada. ; hroughout 'the whole Beauharnois con- pversy, the Liberal party has been placed a bad light in the eyes of the people of nada. Mr. King, in his speech last night, little, if anything to redeem it from that position and Mr. Sifton's attack on his lead- er plainly shows that the former premier has not carried all his followers with him his efforts to shield his over-zealous but guided friends. The situation thus cre- has not sent the provincial association fing off to a very propitious start, but has at least given the delegates the op- tunity of declaring where the party in o stands on the question of cleaning s To Go to a Vote ~The city council has at last decided to have the electors of Oshawa vote on a on the composition of the city coun el. Two petitions requesting such a vote presented to the council on Monday ing, and the members acceded to the quests which were made. The questions 'on which the electors of the city will vote 'are the reduction of the city council from n aldermen to ten, and the election of ermen by general vote of the whole city er than by wards. © views of The Times on these ques- re well known. The Times has long ted the abolition of the ward system manic elections and a reduction in size of the cotneil. This advocacy was on the firm conviction t the city's ted efficient- e Times Publishing Company, ; ST Gukawa Lis Chas. M. Mundy, President" | THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, WEDNESDAY, DCTOBER 21, 1931 ~ ly by a smaller body than at present en- trusted with that duty. In the second case. it was based on the conviction that, were the aldermen elected by general vote of the city, there would be an elevation of the standard necessary to secure election. Local ward considerations would be wiped out, and the interests of the city as a whole would have a paramount place in the minds, not only of the electors, but of the can- didates as well. This, we believe, would also make for more efficient administration of the city's affairs, 1t is likely that the vote on these bylaws will take place at the same time as the municipal elections next January. In the meantime, the electors should give very serious consideration to the importance of these two questions, and should consider them from the viewpoint of the welfare of the whole community, irrespective of what the efféct might be on those who would have to sacrifice seats on the council should the change come into effect, Hanging Bank Robbers Bank robberies are not likely to be very plentiful in Hungary. A special cable to the Toronto Globe from the capital of that country tells of a bank bandit being hanged on Monday of this week for a bank robbery committed last Friday. A companion, also found guilty, was sentenced to 15 years im- prisonment, escaping the death sentence only on account of his youth, No one had been killed or wounded while the bank was being robbed. No one was injured by the bandits as they made their escape or during their flight from motorcycle policemen, But the death penalty was summarily imposed because they had stolen $10,000 from a bank. This type of treatment for bank bandits is rather drastic from our viewpoint of jus- tice, but it must be highly effective. Fear of the death penalty would have a very strong restraining influence on any who might be tempted to commit a crime of that character. No one would suggest that simi- lar sentence be imposed on bank bandits in this country, but it is rather a good object lesson on how other countries take a very serious view of the crime of banditry, Editorial Notes The first street car has passed through the Oshawa subway. It will be a happy day when it is completely opened to all kinds of vehicular traffic. The report on the activities of the Ped- lar People, Limited, is encouraging. It shows that this is an industry which is maintaining its business because it realizes the value of advertising, The unemployed of Oshawa must be heartily sick of the many delays in having a definite and substantial program of public works started by the city. | Other Editor's Comments LBLNNEL] 2 WHANCE (Ottawa Journal) With Mr. Hoover in a hurry to get sometmng done, Canada has been placed in a position where she can make an excellent bargain, in which event Mr. Bennett is to be congratulated. For, at the present juncture--and there can be no harm in say- ing this--there are bargains which Canada could make, ormig ht make, which would do her no harm, Moreover, our American neighbors are a people who understand that between nations, as between indi viduals, business is business. Therefore, if a good bargain can be struck, if the project can be embark- ed upon under such terms as will not impose too heavy a strain upon this country, and which will make the fullest possible allowange for what Can- ada has already done in respect of the Welland Canal, little extra haste will do no harm [ BITS OF HUMOR ALL OF ONE MIND A politician addressing a meeting declared? "It is my wish that all the party should hang to- gether," "Hear, hear!" came a voice from the back of the hall, "I don't mean in the sense you understand," went on the speaker with dignity, "but that they may hang together in concord and accord)" "1 don't mind what kind of cord it is," came the voice again, 'as long as it is a strong cord." "Weel, Jock, Ah hear ye've got married" "Ave, Donald." "An what kind o' match did ye mak'?" "Weel, Donald, to tell ve the truth, Ah. dina do sac weel as Ah expected, but Ah dinna think she did either" He (protracting belated departure): "Yes, I'm a wonder for sleep.
