It is the custom now to tip the bell hop for showing you to your room. You pass out a tip to the girl at the door of the dining-room who looks after your hat, and then, after paying for your din- ner, are expected to pass out another shilling to the waiter who brought you your food. It seems to be the rage in the city but there is no self-respecting man in the smaller towns who would expect or accept his living in this manner. _ 2‘.-- I...) I.

It is not to be expected that all will be satisfied, but even in his campaign speeches so far, W. E. N. Sinclair, the leader of the Opposition, has not scored very heavily. The Mothers’ Allowances Board, the Old Age Pen- sions Commission, the help given rural hydro in the past and the additional assistance promised for the future are all contributing to the general satisfaction of Ontario as a whole with the Ferguson Government. There is no opposition to the statement that it is a foregone conclusion that the Conservative party will be returned to power at Toronto, and with this know- ledge it is altogether likely that South Grey will again register a satisfactory Conservative majority and elect Nelson Perdue as their representative. For the past few years there has been the idea in far too many circles that the great Labor party in Canada was, if not directly, at least under a mantle of respectability, allied with the Communists, or -vâ€"rr'vvvvâ€"v- r:Red” elementwa'n‘ci that the sympathies of those in power in the party were against anything that sav- ored in the least of the “big interests”. The writer has often been ashamed of some of the utterances put into 'cir'ciiiaiiéxi in Toronto and throughout the DOminin by men who, unfortunately, were too high up in the runlts of the Lubor party.

The L'abor Leader says: _A_ sentimentalism that becomes nauseating in the light of pure reason. To illustrate the point: Most people remember the Hickman case, where a young 1 girl not yet in her teens was kidnapped, brutally 1 murdered, her body mutilated, and the pitiful re--.1 mains thrown to the broken-hearted father after he 1 had given the murderer the ransom price. Hickman 1 was caught, condemned and executed, as God 'knows '1 he deserved to be. Yet thousands of people wrote 3 letters slobbered over the vile murderer as 1 though, 0 were a martyr sutlering in a just cause. . Somoofzour Liberal papers, and Conservative papers, ~ too, for that matter, are trying, we suppose for pol- itical reasons, to stir up the same kind of sentiment on behalf ‘ of the Reds. It is a-mistaken idea, wher- ever possible, the armed uprising of the proletariat, and the murder and the pillage of all those who op- pose them. - A - “The Only way to oppose force is by the use of stronger force. It is a waste of time to argue or debate with a hungry tiger. . . ' “Some people will say: . ‘Oh, but the Reds could never murder and pillage the Canadian people.’ To which we answer: ‘Given the opportunity to do so, who is going to stop them?’ Certainly not the Hyde Park method as advocated by the anvil chorus of a sentimental, sloppy, circulation-grabbing press. Hyde Park methods are all right in a Hyde Park enâ€" vironment. But unfortunately Canada lacks this , environment. The Hyde Park environment is 90 l per cent British, probably more: A pe0ple steeped ‘ for centuries in Parliamentary traditions; a people who will vote Consevative one year, and elect a Labor government the next; a people who have won liberty for the workers of the world; in other words a people who value and know how to use this liberty for their permanent good. In Canada we have a mixture of races, where those of British birth and descent are in a minority. These aliens know noth- ing of British tradition, and the majority of them care less. The new freedom they possess under the Union Jack is strange to them, and, given an inch, they feel justified in taking a mile. And what Cana- dians have to consider is, shall these people be al- lowed to organize a force capable of attempting to overthrow constitutional authority, or are Canadians and Canadian institutions to be protected from the menace of direct action. IIIVIIWVV 'â€" “Provided it is agreed that law, order, and constitutional government. must prevail, then meth- ods of doing so must come up for consideration; and question, ‘What would the Reds do if the positions were reserved?’ We never did like Czarism, but, when thinking of the Russian revolu- tion a picture persists in our mind: A simple-minded man, his wife and children, shot like cattle, by men who could neither read nor write, and who knew nothing of the world outside a squalid Russian village. We think of 30,000 pe0ple in Leningrad, thrown into prison, tortured and shot, because they dared to question the dictatorship.
