ORONO WEEKLY TIME'S U 1 ction Thank you, on f O LD MAN ONTARIO speaks for the great mass of our citizens when he says, "Thank you, Mitch". Only too well he remembers the sorry plight into which bad government had brought this great province three years ago. Spendthrift politicians were dragging us deeper and deeper into debt. Their millionaire friends were being allowed to fleece the public treasury. Every department of the public services was honeycombed with an army of hangers-on. It was then the people turned to Hepburn in the hope he could ànd would carry out the promises he made. Perhaps skeptics may have attributed some of his promises to youthful enthusiasm -- but Hepburn kept his word -- he's Ontario's Man of Action. Today Honourable Mitchell F. Hepburn submits the most successful record any Ontario Prime Minister ever presented before the bar of public opinion. Hepburn Earns the Gratitude of the Electorate TJE has earned the thanks of practically every man, woman JTjL and child in the province. Wealthy beneficiaries of estates which had been allowed to mulct the province to the tune of 22 million dollars will not thank him for recovering that huge sum--but nearly everybody else will. Timber profiteers rue the day on which Hepburn came to Queen's Park--but the people of the North rejoice when they see large new industries springing up and old ones reviving. They join Old Man Ontario in his enthusiasm for the ending of unemployment in the timber area and for turning George Henry's deficits into surpluses. "Big Business" may not be singing Hepburn's praises--but the common people appreciate the fact that he saved them millions in interest rates. Hepburn Saves Hydro I F the Quebec power barons had a vote in Ontario, it would certainly not go to Hepburn -- but Ontario knows that the Government's Hydro policy not only saved this great enterprise from ruin, but that it has already saved over four million dollars to Hydro users, and the new contracts will eventually effect total savings to the province of over six million dollars a year. Profiteers from the liquor toll gate that Hepburn promised to abolish will not be on his side--but the people approve his prohibition of the sale of liquor in restaurants which the Plenty Government would have permitted. Hepburn Proves to be The Tax-Payer's Friend T HAT "Thank you, Mitch" covers a wide range of public- services, all administered with an efficiency and economy hitherto unknown. It says: "Thanks" for the lessening of municipal burdens--that mill on the tax rate, the increase in tor/nship road subsidies, the assumption assumption and increase of Mothers' Allowances and the assumption of Old Age Pensions. "Thanks" for the abolition of the amusement tax. "Thanks" for preventing the exploitation of labour by riotous aliens. "Thanks" for the advanced labour legislation, such as -- industrial standard codes, extending minimum wage laws to men, and setting up a tribunal to ensure a square deal to employees employees and employers. This new Industry and Labour Board has already justified its creation by effecting settlements in several disputes of long standing. "Thanks" for the modernizing and extension of our highways, highways, and for promoting tourist trade on a greater scale than ever before. "Thanks" for the improvement in the preventive measures for the health of the people, and for the better care of the sick -- physical and mental. "Thanks" for the progress of education in Ontario, and for assuming the costs of examination fees, "Thanks" for the advancement of every Department within the jurisdiction of a Provincial Provincial Government. Symbol of a grateful people, Old Man Ontario speaks for the great mass of our citizens when he says, "Carry On, Hepburn". Those Who Are Entitled To Vote Every British subject, 21 years of age, and resident in Ontario since October 6, 1936, is entitled to vote at the forthcoming election election -- but the name must be on the voters' list. A vote for the Liberal candidate on October 6th is the practical way the Ontario elector can join in the mandate, "CARRY ON, HEPBURN".
