r . r- -UN PAGE EIGHTEM TME CMADIM ISTATUMM. SOWMANVIILZ.OITARTO THURSDAY. MAT lth.- im Con servatives Name John Foot e to Con test Provincial Election (entinued from page one) - Xpandlng province to continue tg, provide more and better sèrvioes- ta the people without increasing taxes. "ýThe way I handie my bud- get 'of $12,000,000 ta $14,000,000 Isn't any different than the way I would run my awn busi- ness. I have ta do what I can each year with the funds whicl are available. The Conserva- tive government does the same. It would like ta be popular by giving mare and doing more far the municipalities, but it can- flot do so without încreasing taxes", the Durham M.L.A. de- clared. Major Foate also touched on highway problems in Durham County. "I would like ta sec samething done for HighwaY 7A; and this is not in the waY of an election promise", he stated. Turning ta partly face Han. James N. Allan, Minister of Highways, who was on the platforma with' him,' he ex- ressed the hope that it couic emade into a good secondary road and that it would receive better maintenance. "I hope the Highways Department car agree on same capital expen- dture-a reasonable sum .-to be spent in împmoving this highway each year. In that way 1 hope we can provide a de. cent road for very decent pea- ,pIe". He pointed out that anc year recently $300,000 had been spent on Highway 7A. New Hlghways Cause Hardshlg In regard ta the new high- ways being buit, Major Foote stated that every time a nexw .highway is builtitt creates dif- ficulties for the landowners. "The motaing public should realize this when they are tra- velling on tiiese nw roads", he asserted. "For many farmers It bas meant hardships, in that their iarms have been cut up or eut in haif. The people of We earr a complete 1stock of SISMAN IScam pers 1" Boots j~and IWorkme 6 *boots LLOYD ELLIS!l SHOES 4King W. MA 3-5941 '0 Ontario owe a great debt for ie their patience and goodwil l i r accepting settlements for their t land". He stated that he lad entered into almost al ai j- these agreements as an arbi- o0 ter and knew that in almast ýe every case the fammers lad de- -_ erved what they asked for n their land. h Major Foote emphasized that -lhe respects the opinions ai others and stated that what- Y' ever hie says in this election ýr will be said without ridicuiing L- otier people. He aiso ponted 9 out that le las always accept- -ed tie autanamy ai township, town and city councils. "Their Smembers are in a gavemnment ri the same as 1 am", he declar- eed. "We have tried to help tie ymunicîpalities but we don't y want ta interfere with fhem. eWe wiil tmy ta do what we ehave in the past-work toge- rther with them in a democra- etic manner". - Major Foote thanked the Ipeople of Durham for the sup- i port they have given him ln Bthe past seven years and also ethanked the Minister ai High- ,ways and Gordon K. Fraser, M.P. for Peterborough. for 1coming ta the meeting ta sup- sport him. "It is a great fhing ita be surrounded by the people wia have done sa muc# for me", hie declared. "The Con- servative majority was great- er in the last election tlian in the first one in which I was p your candidate. I don't see low we can have any doubts on this next election." Other Platform Guests, * On the piatform witl Major *Foote were Hon. James N. Al- Ian, Minister ai Highways; Gardon K. Fraser, Charles Ste- *phenson, Progtressive Conser- vative candidate in fie last federal election; Alex Carru- fiers, Garden Hill, who chair- *ed fie meeting as President ai tie Durham Progressive Con- servative Association; Robert Sisson, lst Vice-President, and R. R. Waddell, Secretary-Trea- surer oi the Association, Mrs. Foote, Mrs. Alian and Mrs. Carruthers. In a briei address. Mr. Ste- phenson sfated that it was gra- tifying ta see such a large turnaut at the nomination meeting, and it must le grati- fying ta Major Foote ta know that le las such fine supporti. from the people ai Durhami.1 "Major Foote las brought ion- or ta Durham fîrougi being appainted, a Cabinet Mînister. His work ai trying ta elabili- tate people who have started on the wmong road thougi the Department ai Reform Institu- tions is a 'wonderiul work". He said tînt Premier Frost la also a wonderful man. "You caninot hlp but compare lis actions with those ai Federal4 Ministers ike Revenue Minis- fers Dr. J. J. McCann wlo would carry something around in lis pocket for twa years ta discredit the Frost government.j This is fhe womst tiing that anyone could do", Mm. Stephen- son declared. Mm. Stephenson aiso introduced the Minister ai Higiways, an account ai wlose address appears else- where In this issue. Much Work Needed Mr. Fraser impressed on those at fhe meeting the ne- cessity of getting out and work- ing lard fa ensume Major Foote's election. "John Foote las given good service,' not anly ta the people ai Durham, but toa ah Ontario. This is quite different fromn what las been given by "Faraway" Oli- ver who sings a new chorus ai "I Promise You" every time le gets up on a new soap-box."
