Berkinshaw then joined the firm o! Tilley, Jahnston, Tbom- son and Parmenter, wbere he specialized in corporation law. The prominent Toronto lawyer Cyril Carson was a "yaung fel- low in the office" at that time, Berkinshaw recaîls. In 1920, at the suggestion o! a former Os- goode Hall classmate Berkin- sbaw jained the law depart- ment o! the Goodyear Tire and Rubber Ca. Working at Goadyear gave Berkinshaw the appartunity a! becoming something o! a spe- cialist and, be says, "the legal doorstep led ta other fields a! corparate life."l BY 1926 he had risen ta tbe post o! secretary and general counsel o! the campany, in 1931 assistant to the president andj was named treasurer as well in 1932.1 War Berkinshaw was'approch- ed by C.

A Personal Message 'to the EIectors Durham County Perey Vivian Dear FelIaw Citizens: You honoured me last lune .10th by electing me as your repre- se ntative in the House of Commons. In this short period of time it has nat only been a privilege ta serve you but also ta have represented you and ail of Canada at the NATO Parliamentary Conf erence in Paris. Thank you very much. On March 3lst there will be an opportunity ta elect a gavern- ment of Canada. This election is less than a year from the last one. The Diefenbaker Gavernment elected last lune lOth has served Canada f aithfully under very difficuit circumstances. With only 1 13 members out of 265 in the House of Commons it has tried ta carry out' the electian promises of last Spring, mast of which is known ta you. Much Shas been done. More could have been done if the destructive and partisan tactics of the Opposition had not prevented it. Much more needs ta be done - which the Diefenbaker group fully realizes and for which plans have already been made and publi- cized. This election can make it possible for Diefenbaker and his members ta carry out their program for Canada. This election cames too soon and at too inconvenient a time but is made necessary by Pearson dem anding that the Diefenbaker Gov- ernment hand over control of the country ta him without an election. This we refused - so an election is necessary. Pearson now promises things he denied were possible jast year. This election must provide a majority government :. *A GO 'VERNMENT DEDICATED TO THE WHOLE 0F CANADAI." ,4 *A GOVERNMENT 0F VISION AND ACTION *A DIEFENBAKER GOVERN MENT In this I arn sure you wish ta have a part - and I will be very pleased ta continue as your member if you want DIEFENBAKER WITH ENOUGH MEMBERS TO CARRY THROUGH WITH A GOOD JOB. Yours very sincerely, - Percy Vivian ~ MAPLE GROVE Mrs. J. D. Stevens enjoyed a family gathering at the gonie of Mr. and Mrs. Ken Sufners- ford last week.
