i te HE HAILEYBURIAN WAR SAVINGS CERT Vol. 41; No. 13 » HAILEYBURY, ONTARIO THURSDAY, JUNE 14th, 1945 Haileybury People 'Change Minds in Federal Election -Vote Reversed From That of Previous Week Gives Walter Little Majority Perhaps the most interesting part of the Federal/election on Monday, so far as Haileybury. is concerned, was the way in which local voters reversed their ideas of the two old parties during the week that intervened following the provincial contest the previ- ous Monday. From a substantial Progressive Conservative major- ity for R. D: Cumming on June 4 they changed around and voted Liberal on June 11, giving Walter Little, M.P., a considerable lead over F. H. Todd, the Conservative candidate. Figures in the provin- cial election gave Cumming 462 Nixon 217, Taylor 195 and Fen 10, while the standing this timé was: Little 485, Todd 311, Ames 149 and Teeple 13. While up to yesterday returns for the riding were not complete according to figures compiled by Returning Officer H. Clifford Walter Little's election seems to be assured. There were only a few scattered polls to be heard from and it was not considered| | likely that the overseas vote, still to come, could make any material change in the standing of the four| candidates.

W. J. Allard of Hail- eybury, Ont.," reads, in part, a news item by a staff writer of The Maple Leaf, and appearing in a recent issue of that publica- tion. "This group had infiltrated through the widely spread com- panies of the Camerons and were a very determined Jooking lot The -headquarters was in. the subarbs of Kirchhatten," the ar- ticle continues; "Allard gave the alarm and everyone in the room --there were members of the Scout platoon, drivers and sigs-- immediately swung into action.' The Pte. Allard mentioned is Wilfrid Allard, son of Mr. and Mrs. G, S, Allard of Haileybury and one of three brothers serving Overseas at present. He has been with the Queen's Own Cam- eron Rifles of Winnipeg, and the story quoted states this was the last major action for the unit. It was a "Jerry counter-attack late in the afternoon of April 23," and it will "long be remembered by most of the men at Tac HQ,' for "bitter fighting was required tc convince the stubborn enemy it was no dice." The news story states also that in the fight "our shotsmen were a little too accurate for them and after suffering heavy casualties they retired." The article relates also how one man was frying eggs at the time the attack was made and "I saw that the situa- tion was under control, so I just kept on with my job." There isa note also on how the unit obser- ved V-E Day with suitable cere- mOniai, in which comrades who had lost their lives were not for- gotten. Pte.
