Government was "playing politics'" wlthi the people's money; that expenditures under the Northern Development Branch| as "wages for men" might, for all the| Legislature knew, be for men who hadi "never been born": and that Magistrate| Norman of Picton, like Magistrate Bur--| gess of Port Credit, had spoken for a Conservative candidate in the last clec-- tion campaign and was still allowed to carry on his office, were features of the slashing attack which Liberal Leader William E. N. Sinclair loosed in thef Provincial House yesterday afternoon in the wind--up of the Budget debate. Reads Affidavits. Mr. Sinclair produced one affidavit to show that Magistrate Norman had appealed to Prince Edward County elec-- tors on behalf of Horace S.

The letter, postscript and all, was read to the Legislature yes-- terday by William E. N.

Mr. Sinclair further charged that Dr Godfrey's "playing politics" had bee:t good reason why he, the Minister 0 Labor, had not condemned Cliffort Case (North York) and the much talked--of pensions letter which the lat ter directsd to many of his aged con stituents during the last election cam 2A Y C l'\. lQfi».

All his dezalings to date had been t> the advantags of the brokers, and no' the ganeral public. The Legislature session now embarks on the last ten days of its life. three speakers in the Budget debate on Thursday were Conservative mem-- bers. Mr. Sirclair cbserved that a fair proportion of the Opposition had taken part in the debate. In fact, said he, if there had been the same proportion of Conservative speakers in ratio to their numbers in the House, 56 would have spcken. "We have a good bat-- ting average," the Liberal Leader de-- clared. He opened his attack on the Govern-- ment with the statement that its ad-- ministration had been seven years of extravagance. He referred to the Fed-- eral Government as a good example of administraticn -- that benefited the people, and as a sharp contrast to the Ferguson rule. The House divided on straight party lines. An unusual feature was the non--vote of the Prime Minister, he pairing with Mr. Sinclair, who had been called from the House on account of private business. He wondered why the Provincial Treasurer bcthered about bringing in estimates when those estimates were so far out in comparison with the actual figures He cbserved that rev-- enue had been estimated at $58,000,000, while it actually was $64,500,000; that expenditures were estimated at $58,-- 000,000, while they were actually $62,-- C00,000. Mr. Sinclair held up to ridicule a new itcm in the public accounts of this ses-- sion--"prcofits from trading." "I don't know what ssction under the British North America Act," said he, "permits the Government to engage in a business of this kind, but thsy seem to like the name 'trading' better than anything Th Libsral Leador contended that Attornsy--Gensral Price had again "lagged@" in h duty--had bsen nogli-- g3nt in not fixing some definite date at vwhich the arrested brokers should cover a.l their short sales.
