peculiar election in the history of canada will have run its course it has been a dull campaign marked with trivial and fu tile charges and counter charges as to the nature of canada s war effort it has left the electors confused so con fused that it is common knowledge that many do not intend to take the trouble to vote this is a sad situation especiailyat a time when all candtta should be up and doing the confusion and result and in difference is entirely due to the pol iticians mackenzie king started it by his sudden dissolution of parlia ment dr matuon added to it byhls cry of national oovernment and premier hepburn completed it by his clowning and irresponsible interference in federal affairs t a time when his own provincial job was a man sized one requiring all his attention while kings sudden dissolution or parliament was in the minds of nearly all unnecessary the fact remained that he was definitely challenged by hep burn and drew and it may be in the end that his acceptance of that chal lenge was the beet thing with which to clear the air the manlonites claim dissolution of parliament shut off crit icism of government but the campaign to date hoi only emphasized the fact that a session of pit humeri t followed by he election which hod to come this vear in any event would have seen the people of canada subjected to months of criticism of government and man oeuvrlng for political advantage with a slowing down of the war efrort for the entire time as it is now the pol iticlans are having a grand short six weeks in which to air it all after which everybody can concentrate on the job of assisting britain andtranoe to win the war certainly our war effort should move wl h greater ease and re doubled ejfort after march 26th for or that date the temper of the people will have been expressed if as claimed by some mackenzie king was in error in seeking a snap veidlct di manlon was just as much hi error in his campaign strategy by which he conservative party over night became a ho called national government pirty the worthy doc tor eired on two points 1 he failed to re lllze that national nvrnnunt nnd conscription are syn onjmn is n th minds of thousands of pcop minmn s txpressed opposition 0 c scrl i ion would have cirrlod mere wihl as a did i atlon from the leadci of the con creative party than it in from the lcadtr of a national government party and the ople of hls country whither we like it or no are against conscription at the present lime they realize they are more likely to git conscription fiom a union gov ernmen than from a straight par y regime 2 wh le to the majority the fear of inscription is uppermost on the other hand those who study their political charts realize tha dr manlon nat lonnl government ls not what he oi hls associates would have us bellee true national government is union government in which politicians and citizens or all shades of political opln ions and faiths unite tor the common good there has been no such merger in this rountrj the only oi standing politician to break with the liberal part ior instance- being impredlct able mr hepburn and it is common knowledge that mr hepburns chief desire in life is to injure w l mac kenzle king if the public knew just what was behind mr hepburn s an tagonlsm to the canadian prime mln lster they would be inclined to pay some attention to the sniping so con slstently carried on by the voluble wise cracking laird of 8t thomas who ls more concerned with his mischief making than he is with canada s war effort hepburn has dlscredited him self by hls own ac ions and hls break with kln ls a help rather than a hln drance to the liberal cause the thinking public sees all thls and at the same time realize that national gov ernment as pictured by dr manlon ls no unim government but simply an election manoeuvre incidentally many all time conservatives are resentful of these tactics and feel that the grand old party has been sacrificed in the name of political expediency when there was no real need for it dr manlon merely talks about invu lng the best brains to join hls cab inet but those who know something of practical politics realize quite well that the old party war horses who would be in line for cabinet positions in a conservative regime arc not go lng to give up cabinet posts for out siders who have never had to do with uhc welfare of the party at any time then again cabinet ministers must be members of parliament so if manlon ls called upon to form a cabinet and he calls in best brains scats must be found for them seats might be found for one or two hon best brains but for more well a new era has dawned lp canada if seats for any considerable number are opened with any degree of ease or good will thes tilings are realized by the pub lie just as it has finally struck home th5 premier hepburn in the large and expensive newspaper advertisement re centy run in the ontario news papers purporting to come from the board of film censors committed one o the most atnari breaches ever- credited to a provincial prime minister mr hepburn ls entitled to his own views but when he airs them in large type in large advertisements over his own signature with the money of the people of ontario he places himself beyond the pale and all rightthinking canadians know it this raises an interesting point hepburn fired col oeo drew from his post as securities commissioner drew then launched himself into the politi cal field with elimination of- hepburn as his goal he became the leader of the opposition in the ontario legisla ture ttien we find the pair of them joining hands in the attack on king albert for different reasons as leader of his majesty s loyal opposition in the legislature it is col drews boun- qusnapshot guild take
