That with the accession of the Lib- eral party to power in 1896, tarfiff duties were iowered and immediately, the country entered upon an era ofi record breaking prosperity. Tories1 say reducing the tariff had nothingi to do with the fifteen years of goodi 1 inies that prevailed during thel premiership of Sir Wilfred Laurier.1 Liberals alse dlaim with equal con-, fidence that any revival of busZiness Iwbich followed the accession of the Macdonal government te poer in 1878 had n.othing te do with the in- crease in duties. TOO CHILDISH TO BELIEVE To imagine that an Act of Parli-1 ment can double the population and wealth of the country jqe hiidish. If prosperity followed an increase in tariff duties in 1878, greater pros- perity followed the reduction of these duties in 1897. Tories, ho'-, ever, tell us that the United States bas aiways hiad a high protective tariT and therefore bas always been prosperous. and OUR BORING AND 11' MILLING MACHINEI rill undertake any new or repaîr rork fer you that requires sucir ervices.

Bowraavtile Pho~ne 425W sistency Ca Beeon-e Almost Mental Dishonefity at Times. In ail of bis addresses before the electorate of Durham Hon. Vincent Masse-y has clearly demonstrated the sincerity and frankness of his con-j victions. He doesn't talk polities for the sake of currying favor andi applause from bis audiences. But instead gives expression to commo-n sense business views which. appeai te the independent thinker. In straightforward and convirncing language Mr. Massey told bis aud-1 ience at Newtonnviile how andwh hie had changed bis viW c f the in- pleurent tariff reductions of 1ý;24 fromn strenuons opposition to comi- plete approval. That hie satlsficd them of the sincerity of bis pres-1 ent attitude was indicated by the warm- applause accorded hlmi. Speaking of the "p)ropaganida f ear" with wbich the tonservative party had deluged the cou.ntry dur- in- the past four years in its cfforti to pers uade people that tha_ countýry was going te the dogs and only h.ighý tarif s would save it, Mr, Ma'sey franly adnitted th4atlhe lad been alarnred at flrst over the proposali to reduce the duty on farm iipie-1 ments. He had thougîlt It would injure bis company, but the resit had proved bis fears groundless. "A year and a haîf ago", lie said, "the g-overnment an-nouncedt its in- tention of redlucing- the luties on farin implements. At that time, the spring of 1924, thom, of us who were connected with the fanm rmi- plement industry were genuinely elarnied over the probable effect up- on it, mnyseif as miuch as anyonie con- cerned. Fifteen or twenty per cent tarif aseemed little enoug-h to u~s and 'we felt and spoke about as stron.giy on. the subject as wei could.

"lni the iight of subsequent ex- perience I believe profoundly and know that our fears were groundiess and that it was possible to carry on under the new conditions.

Nevi.er Favered High Tarif "I neyer have believed ln a hig-h tariff, however. MY first Vote was cast for reciprecity in 1911, and 1 am proud of the fact". The high tariff proposais of thel Conservative party, the speaker cou- tinued, were in direct coni1iict with the idea that Canada was an ag-ricul- tural country, though sixty per cent of the countryc experts were agri- cultural produets.. In their pes.-imis- tic propaganda the 'Conservatives overlooked the fýact that the f arip- er's recent trou~bles were entirely due to the fact that he had been re- ceiving relatively lower prices than hie paid. The Conservative idea seemed to bc that the farmer should accept a "farmer's tariff",' which would neti benefit him, and that the nianufac- turer should 1bepefit under big-h tar- iffs at the expense of the fariner, so that the two -would be at cadi other'e throats. Ni-nety per cent of fanm products, however, could net be aff ected by any tariff because the prices of them were subjeet to world competition, Reeye Holman Spoke Reeve M. J. Hohuian, in a very brief speech expresýsed thle viewp oint of the Durham Progressives.

Doesý' This Look Like "]BIuè Ruin#?" Let the "Calamity Howlers" Take Comfort from some Actual Facts" Followers of Mr. Arthur Meighen have been making' poliical capital of Canada's difficulties, Tbey are painting a picture of ruin and calamity.i Tbey cannot see any hope unless they are returnecj to power. They tell you that Canada's trade is being destroyed. That f oreign goods are swaning Can'ada's homne market, That ber f actories are idie. That the United States 1$ getting the cream of our population,. That tbe National Railways are going f urtber and further into the hole and dragging Canada down. That the King Government bas indulged ini a riot of extr~avagance. That the farmers are bankrupt, and the cost of living bas increased. ¶Nowr here are the absolute f acts from tbe officiai records of tbe Government Blue Books, as compiled by the Bureau of Sta- tistics. Tbey sbow that Canada is ail rigbt; that sbe is riding high and triumpbant out of ber difficulties into good times. The Liberal policies need no other vindication. In the King Govern-. ment, Durham's candidate, I-on. Vincent Massey, is Minister without Portf olio. That Governiment needs no other def ence than tbe officiai reports of the Bureau of Statistics itself.
