SEED WHEAT FOR SALE (ADVERTISEMENT) FARM FOR SALE V0'rlllii, With the customs investigation still far from finished, the King Government already stands convicted of having co-operated with smugglers, bootleggers, dopesters and thieves, and oChaving thus been a party to defrauding the National Treasury, strangling legitimate business, debauching officials, high and low, thwarting the administration of justice, and bribing the electorate! To cite but a few instances--already proven-- from its appalling record of malfeasance f Police offiaers---members of the incorruptible Royal Canadian Mounted -were withdrawn from the Quebec boundary line at the request of the smuggling ring. Honest traders had asked for increased police protection, but the King Government preferred to grant the request of those who were defrauding the public revenue. Guilty knowledge even in 1923 of the frauds that were being practised has been proven against the King Government beyond the shadow of a doubt. Time and again, in 1924 and 1925, the Commercial Protective Association-an organization of business men-placed before Mr. King irrefutable evidences of it, that they had succeeded in tracing down at their own expense. With his Government hopelessly entangled with Canada's criminal element, Mr. King did not-dared not-- take any action to remedy the appalling conditions. tons of such goods, produced in prisons where contagious diseases were prevalent among the inmates, were smuggled into Canada for sale to innocent Canadian consumers, with the direct knowledge and co-operation of Government officials Smuggled liquor selling was engaged in on a large scale by Customs officials whose duty it was to protect the Treasury. Corrupt officials were unpunished and promoted; honest officials were punished and demoted. Prisonynadf goods are 9n tttprohibited list, yet tons and onlfto go unpunished, but to continue-theh. nefarious trade. Stolen automobiles, smuggled into Canada with the connivance of Customs officials, were sold for a pittance to friends of the King Governmer?t, and those found guilty were allowed not Calder was a Liberal candidate in the last election, and despite the further fact that the-committee-di almost daily for five months, thus affording Liberal members ample opportunity to uncover malfeasance on the part of previous ministries, not one word of proof, not one breath of suspicion, was brought against the administration of the Customs Department under the Laurier, Borden and Meighen Govern. ments, but only against its administration under Mr. William Lyon MacKenzie King! . Has anything more disgraceful ever besmirched the pages of Canadian history ? Can a proud and honourable nation, whose people fear God and eschew evil, afford to condone such dishonesty, such corruption, on the part of its leaders and public servants ?

Mr. Edvard: in a good citizen and is respected us such, but u an out and out Conservative. will not see beyond the vote he casts Mr party alliances. The peak of this corruption, and of this interference with the Customs collection and the administration of justice, is proven by the evidence to have been reached just prior to the general election of October, 1925, when, at the written request of Liberal candidates, Ministers of the Crown called off the Royal Canadian Mounted Police because they were enforcing the law, kept convicted crooks out of jail, and sanctioned Treasury frauds as a means of securing the return of the King Government to power. The habit-forming drug traffie is one of the worst curses in the world today. Under the protection of the King Govern- ment, Montreal became one of the great dope-distributing centres of North America. A $54,800 loss was sustained in one case alone when Mr. Cardin, Acting Minister of Customs and Excise, settled for $3,200 with a dishonest importer, who, according to Mr. Cardin's own officials, had cheated the Treasury out of duties amounting to $58,000. This deal was consummated just previous to the last election. tit' c h ‘W -HnAM MSW.“ (ADVERTISEMENT) 90 per cent Mr John Baler and son Lister of Kitchener, have spent the put coup- le of weeks It the Bauer home.
