your liberal candidate mubray mcphail no one who desires a reduc tion in federal expenditures or who hopes for lower taxes can possibly vote for a conservative candidate a conservative vote as the record proves and as mr st laurent has been pointing out is a vote for a vastliy increased federal budget and cor increased taxes or debt there is no hope absolutely none of reduced expenditures from the conservative party or indeed from any of the splinter parties ajlne same time george drew has been going from platform to platform promising a beautiful half billion dollars off the national budget he has been committing the conserv ative party most solemnly to mea sures which will increase federal expenditures by at least another bil lion dollars it is true there has been some talk in halton by the conservative candidate that such things as tele graphs telephones and communica tions for the canadian government cost too much it should be pointed out that communications for a nat ion will run into a substantial am ount when navy army and air force are operating in six foreign coun tries and coast to coast in canada a major amount of the appropria tion authorized by parliament was for the construction installation and maintenance of telephone teletype and wireless facilities for the arm ed services including radar stations the tory candidate claims this is reckless freespending in the de fence department point three of the tory promises calls for a dominion provincial tax conference to revise our whole system of taxation so that taxes on homes and farm lands for educa tion health and other services can be substantially reduced reducing- the taxes on homes and farm lands for education and health services does not eliminate the costs of those services if the local auth orities have their share of the costs lightened and are thereby enable to reduce taxes hen proportionately the cost burden on the other gov ernmental authorities goes up this move would of necessity involve an increase in federal expenditures the conservative promise on hou sing states that the party will in troduce a housing program which will make it possible for small in come earners to buy new homes this would be done by improving the terms and conditions under which houses can be built and pur chased here again these things can only be done by subsidy or higher federal expenditures on housing- than are now being made by otta wa no country in the world has had a higher proportionate increase in housing than wo have had since the war but it is difficult to imagine how a conesrvative government could get more houses built without spending more money this is the sort of financing that is supposed to win friends for the frustrated tories actually nei- ither mr drew or any of his candi dates appear to be too familiar with sound financing and with all this talk afoout holidays i can only say this if through apathy the government is defeated on august 10th the evidence is that the people witnesses convention 125000 in new york attending the 1053 international assembly of jehovah s witnesses in new york city mr and mrs john cordaro who are among several lo cal people there
