Eight Delegates | | showing First Rally Held Here. R. L. ROBERTSON News Editor PHONE 703 HearsJohn Lay Ask Vote "Don't let the people of this rid- ing make the mistake of sending an opposition member to Ottawa again." This was the warning and plea issued by John Lay, Liberal candidate in the coming general election, at Whitby's first political meeting. Mr. Lay addressed a gathering of Liberal party support- ers on the lawn beside the Liberal headquarters on Dundas Street on Friday evening and in his address outlined some of the things that had been accomplished in this rid- ing through him and also cited many of the accomplishments of the Liberal Government in Ottawa. + Presiding at the rally was Gor- don Hawes, of Whitby, one of the campaign managers, who introduc- ed Mr. Lay and also announced some of the picnics and other meet- ings on Mr. Lay'a agenda during the next few weeks. He also called on William Davidson, an active Liberal worker, who welcomed the audience to the meeting stating, "Make yourselves at home. My lace i¢ yours this evening." Miss argaret Sleep, secretary of the Whitby Liberal Association, also welcomed the members of the audience and - forecast 'a better than the last time." "is 'providing 'funds for the chil dren, who, through the sacrifice of their fathers, would otherwise be deprived of higher education." The trade record, in the Liberal years, said Mr. Lay, had gone to unexpected high levels. Trade, both import and export, during the last year, he claimed, had totalled eight and one-half billion dollars, an; in- dication, he said, that Canada had not lost' the Commonwealth mar- kets. "The whole picture," he said, "is something we can be proud of." STARR INDEPENDENT? i Mr: Lay then turned to one of the opposing candidates and asked if there was a chance that Mike Starr was running as an independ- ent or was he running under the Conservative banner. He claimed that on posters issued by Mr, Starr there was little or nothing to indjcate that he was linked with the Conservaive party. The poster, he said, carried the words, 'Cut Taxes -- Vote Starr' 'He is a fine one to tdlk' about cutting taxes," said Mr. Lay. "Ask anyone in Osh- | awa about cutting taxes." | While on the subject of tax re- | ductions, Mr. Lay claimed that in {every year since the end of World | Roger Conant, campaign manager War II, except 1950, the Liberal | two speeches, Neither Mr. Starr, Mr. Drew, nor anyone in the Conservative party, said Mr. Lay, had yet shown ow they planned on ucing the taxes while on the other y the ' finance minister had shown how it could not be done. They can only do it, said Mr. Lay, by deficiting" financing and by building a great- er national debt, a debt, he claim ed, which would be saddled on gen- erations to come. ; SASK. PROBLEM Mr. Lay referred to a recent an-. nouncement by Mr. St. Laurent that the Saskatchewan dam w not be constructed by the Liberal 2 Government if returned. He stat. ed that a Royal Commission had investigated the matter and had concluded that it would not be in the national interests to have such a project undertaken. On the other hand, he said, Mr. Drew had not only promised a $500,000,000 tax cut but had also promised the Saskatchewan dam. "It doesn't make sense," observed Mr. Lay. Recalling the by-election of last year Mr. Lay poted that Mr. Starr had been sent to Ottawa. During that year, | he said, Mr. Starr had made only one of which, he for Mr. Lay, was also introduced | Government had reduced the taxes | said, was full of inaccuracies.

During the Liberal regime, he said, there had been tremendous | further wap in Europe. "Even with | all those tax cuts," said Mr. Lay, "what has the government been able 'to do?" He stated that in the prosperity of these past years, prosperity which he said was no accident, the government had col- {lected more revenue than it had |ever dreamed of. With this addi- | tional revenue, he said, the govrn- | representative of the party and through this recognition had been instrumental in having the post office in Oshawa begun. At pres- ent, he claimed, through his ef. forts, a survey was underway for the establishment of a new post office in Whitby and two post offices in Pickering Township.

He pointed out that for some months now a com- mittee had been working for a new artificial ice arena in the town. He explained that the win- ters being experienced in this lo- cale in the past few years indi- cated that the only way that ice could be had was to produce it artificially and it was with this thought in mind that a campaign for funds has been underway and more than $60,000 pledged to the support of such an arena. COUNTY PROPOSITION . His Honor stated that it was the committee's opinion that if such an arena were to be constructed here, the only artificial ice arena in Ontario County with the excep- tion of the overworked one at Osh- awa, it would be used not only by Whitby residents but by persons from the surrounding townships. "This is a county proposition," said His Honor and stated that the com- mittee was asking the county to make a substantial grant towards the construction of such an arena and mentioned a figure of $2,000. The request was turned over to the County Finance Committee of which Whitby's Reeve Duncan Mc- Intyre is the chairman. ial suitable for wrapping around an apostle o rshepherd.
