Page 4 THE HAILEYBURIAN THURSDAY, JUNE 19th, 1930 JHE HAILEYBURIAN Issued every Thursday from The Haileyburian Office, Broadway Street, Haileybury Published in the Interests of the Town of Haileybury and District of Temiskaming SUBSCRIPTION RATES In Canada--$2.00 per year in advance In United States--$2.50 per year in advance LEISHMAN & SUTHERLAND PUBLISHERS A Pioneer Citizen Gone In the death of George T. Smith Haileybury loses one of its pioneer citizens, a man who was well known and highly respected by all with whom he came in con- tact. His residence here was bound up withthe early history of the town and there are few, if any, men in Haileybury today who have seen as much public service and have been so closely identified with the life of the community as he was throughout the past twenty-five years. A man of broad vision and ster- lit ntegrity, loyal to his church but tolerant to all others, con- scientious in all his deafings with his fellow man, loved and revered by his wife and family, a true friend to many in distress, George nith filled a place in the rth Country that was unique among its citizens. He will be greatly missed and the sincere mpathy of the whole commun- ity goes out to the bereaved ones. The Campaign Progresses While the election campaign is comparatively quiet here, there is considerable of what one candi- date terms "spade work" being both parties and it ap- pears likely that when the date of the election draws nearer there will be plenty of activity. With two well known men in the running, Haileybury is taking this election more seriously than has been the case for some years done by and wherever there are a few peo- ple gathered, the talk turns auto- matically to the campaign. Women's organizations have sprung into being in both politi- cal camps and it appears that the fair sex will be more active than at any time in the town's his- tory. Both parties are well aware of the benefits of advertising and are making considerable use of the local newspapers to set out their platforms and beliefs, so that no one can be ignorant of the claims being made. By tak- ing these claims into considera- tion, along with a study of con- ditions as they are found through- out the country, the great body of voters should be enabled to go to the polls with a fair knowledge of how they should exercise their franchise, but perhaps in the majority of cases the old party ties will still hold and we will vote as our fathers and grand- fathers did. Liberal Women Here Form Association to Assist in Election The Haileybury Women's Lib- eral Association, with the object of assisting in the coming elec- tion in the interests of Col. Mac. Lang, was formed at a well at- tended meeting in Hotel Hailey- bury on Friday last, June 13th. Officers were elected as follows Hon, President -- Mrs. Mac. Lang. President--Mrs. J. C. Houston. Vice-Pres--Mrs. J. A. Legris. Secretary-Treasurer -- Mrs. E. W. Kearney. A further meeting has been called for Saturday of this week, June 21st, at 3.30 p.m., in Hotel Haileybury, when an executive committee will be appointed and the organization of the associa- tion completed. To this meet- ing all women residing in Hailey- bury or immediate vicinity who are interested are cordially in- vited. j Cruelty Cites is Punished by a Fine Convicted of a charge of cruel- ty to animals, Alex. Brown, of Firstbrook Township, was fined $10 and costs by Magistrate At- kinson in police court here on Monday. Brown had been found working a horse with sore shoul- ders and the information was laid by Chief of Police MacGirr. Two local motorists paid fines at the same session of the court, one for driving with only one headlight on and the other for exceeding the speed limit. In the first case the amount of the levy was one dollar and costs, while the speeder paid ten and costs. "Give Canada a Chance" (Continued from page 1) give them work. Couldn't give them a livelihood. That is the complete, the unanswerable story of the record of Mr. King. It is the answer to all his excuses and pretensions and claims. It is the explanation of his death-bed admission, as ex- pressed in the humiliating surrender of the Dunning budget, that all of these years he has been wrong. The reason for his attempt- ed right-about-face, with betrayal of his old allies and comrades and all of his party's past tenets, to cling to the flesh-pots of power. One million souls exiled from Canada in ten years of his rule. No need exists to detail the record set out by Mr. Bennett. The brief and stark truth is that Government in Canada during the | past ten years has been barren of vigorous, honest effort for the} national weal. While other nations girded their loins in a titanic conflict of trade, while our rich and powerful neighbor waged a} war of economic imperialism unparalleled in the history of the world, while all the peoples on all the continents prepared to meet the challenge and new realities of modern industrialism, the Coun- cils and the Parliament of Canada concentrated their energies up- on brilliantly fatal political tactics, upon log-rolling for parliamen- tary decisions, upon intrigue for office and power. The conse- quences we all know. Canada, lacking in leadership, afflicted with the intrigues of politics, went on selling her estate. Our nickel, our copper, our wood, the products of our forests and our mines--| all went across the line. They provided work for Americans, wages' for Americans, development for American communities, | markets for American farmers, traffic for American railways, | growth for American ports. When Americans refined our pro- | ducts, manufactured them, they sold them back to Canadians at rich profits for themselves. | And it was not only our raw material we exported. Our best life-blood went with it. One million, three hundred thousand of| our brain and brawn left Canada, left it because they could not} get work here, left it because the raw material that we should} have been manufacturing here was being manufactured elsewhere. And while this was going on, while the life-blood of the nation was ebbing away, and our politicians played politics for stakes, millions | of the money of the taxpayers of Canada were being spent to} bring settlers from Europe. Could national folly go further? | With unemployment temporarily solved by emigration, and with rich harvests from our fields, we had a measure of prosperity. | Prosperity for a time. But nothing else. We continued to fly in- to the face of Providence, went on being profligate with our estate. | And it could not go on. Our resources, vast as they are, are not] inexhaustible, not capable of enduring prosperity when dissipated by profligate politics. The present spectre of unemployment and | hard times is the proof of that. | It is time for a change. Mr. Mackenzie King has had ten| years of office--and has failed. The story of his failure is evident | all about us, evident most of all in his own eleventh-hour flight | from his discredited panaceas and policies, evident from the new deception with which he would hold to power. The time has come, | surely, to end all of that. The time has come to forget labels and | catchwords, to punish political adventurers who have been dissi- | pating our estate, to try a new, and perhaps cleaner and more hon- | est deal. In the words of Mr. Bennett's ringing challenge, let us give Canada a chance. ---Published by South Temiskaming Liberal-Conservative Association way from Sudbury to Noranda | with a new Chevrolet coupe, which was only slightly damaged. | When Car Turns Over Motorcycle Officer Allsopp, who i Way 8 was in Liskeard when the injur- Woman Has Head Badly Cut But|&4 persons were brought in and Is Recovering After Bad who went to the scene of the, Motor Crash crash, says it looks as though et one wheel of the car had been Descharme's Hill, six miles|jammed by the brakes, throwing from New Liskeard, on the road|the vehicle to one side of the to North Temiskaming, was the}road.

THE FACTS Canadians paid over 31% more taxes in 1929 than in 1925- The revenue and expenditure of the Dominion of Canada in 1929 were the greatest in the history of the country, bar- ring the years of extra expenditure due to the world war. The taxation per capita during 1929 was the highest in the history of Canada, barring the years of extra expenditure due to the world war. In the face of these facts the King Government has the auda- city to claim it has reduced taxation. Mr. BENNETT states: "Whenever you impose upon the people taxation which produces additional revenue, you have placed a greater burden upon the people, and however cleverly vou may disguise it the fact remains that ts means additional taxes."
