hard core Tones who seized the opportunity lo roar approval for positive aspects of the Government s record which Premier Davis enumerated as he capped the evening ilh a brief but hard driving speech aimed at down grading the role of the press Davis dart was aimed particularly at the Toronto Globe and Mall which find some of his policies distasteful He urged the parly workers to get out and work for the upcoming election Davis did not elaborate on when the election would lake place but the betting among those who attended was the Mr Davis soon meant the Fall Others thought it might come sooner even in June It was a Tory blue evening with large posters of the premier gracing walls and swinging the ceiling of the Galaxy Club home base ironically for Unilcd Automobile Workers Jim Snow

with Olds and Chryslers that usually mark Tory gatherings Late arrival A late arrival by the premier delayed Mr Davis speech but he came out swinging admitting the political climate was not as favorable as It was four years ago He sensed a degree of cynicism exists and people were inclined to always look on worst of any decision an attitude he thought may have originated in the United Suites and infected those north of Ihe border He said the present Government could have carried on in a noncon troversial way but chose instead to step out into new frontiers where difficult things were done and maybe even rone Maybe we made mistakes but we also did some good things Davis told the Tones urging them to take a more aggressive stance in their own defending Government policies I can live with the Globe and Mail editorials they decide elections Davis said but the people who vote do He recalled the Con had been in power at Queen Park for years and would be people voting at the next election who have never known other government He ticked off he considered of had a educational system con Iroversiol maybe but he asked where else my five kids could get a heller education best health services in the country and major Improvements in environment and planning Mr Davis said because the Government took the second route it indicated it had the intestinal fortitude to look to the future despite Ihe problems We ve never solved all the problems of regional govern he continued but Insisted ihe next election was not going to be decided on There arc other more important issues he told the cheering Tories He urged them lo look at the Official Opposition and suggested Bob Nixon was no more attractive lo the electorate now the last election Davis concluded his remarks with a tribute lo Jim Snow s hard work and commitment and urged Conservatives in the riding to get out and support him and See the Progressive Con servatives continue to ad minister the affairs of the
