Briefly, we are interested ill Good Govermnent. 1 am sure we are in agreement when 1 sav that the Drew Government's record has been such as to inspire respect and conlkleuce. and ii.> effi- cient record oxer the past five years has never been surpassed in the history of Ontario. During the nine years immediately [)receding the Drew Administratijin. the Goxernnient to which Mr. Oliver gave his support added nearly 140 million dollars to the Provincial debt. Since the Drew (.iovernmem assumed ottice in 1^,43. not one cent has been added to the debt of this pro- vince, despite the increased obligations assumed in respect of Education. Highways, Hydro, Agri- culture and Social Services. iThis^record' can best be appreciated w'hen we give thought to the assist- ance given to Municipalities by the Drew Govern- ment, as compared to that given by previous administrations, and the savings which this rep- resents to all of us in our property taxes. (Intended for Last Week) Mis. J. Crawford and Billy and Mr. Roy Fcnwick spent Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Park wx. Ranks. Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Stephens, Mary and Jimmie. called on Mr. and Mrs. Geo.

Crawford suffering from a severe case of lum)bugo. We hope that he will soon be ajble to be around ag:iTn. Mrs. Pete Somet-s of Brantford Avas home on the week end.

Mr. and Mrs. Jim Sturrock spent Sunday at Swinton Park with her jBiother. Other members of the faj-niiy vs-ere also present. In 1943. the Liberal Government contributed only some S millions h\ way of school grants, whereas the Drew Government assumes over 33 millions of the school costs. In 1943 the Liberal (u)vermnent paid less than 5 millions k^{ the Muni- cipal expeiuliture on roads, whereas in 194^. the Drew Government will lift o\er b> millions of this burden frcmi the shoulders of municipal tax payers. Highway costs ii: 1947 amoiuucd to nearly (il millions of dollars, a sum twice as great as that expended previ<.)usly in any one year, yet by efTicient management, every cent of all increas- ed obligations has been paid for in CASH. In addition to this pay-as-_\ ou-go policy, the Drew Government was able to reduce the Provincial debt by over 17 millions. Surely this is a renuuk- able evidence of efficiency, and a tangible expers- sion of the Government's understanding of our needs. In other I V-parimenis (^i (iovermnent as well, greatly increased obligations have been as- sumed in order to assist us in the further develoj)- ment of the restiurces of this great Province, and to enable us to attain the highest standard of living ever enjoyed by any peoi)le in a similar area in the world to-day. If these etTorts on your be- half meet with favour, give the Drew Govern- ment a mandate to carry on. and work tor and support its representative in this riding. Howard A.
