Vol. 4, No. 24 WEDNESDAY, JUNE l9th, 1-974 I CIRCLE TAXI 128 BROCK ST. N. WHITBY, ONT. 24 IIRS. Lewils Looks Strong,,-ý New> Demnocratic Party leader David Lewis told a gathering of somne 400 people in Oshawa Saturday night to seriously, consider an NDP government because "you 've had the Liberals, you've had the Conservatives, and there's no doubt they've had you." Mr. Lewis was in Oshawa for' an NDP rally and dance at'the U.A.W. hall. He was at his best dancing into the hall with his wife Sophie and throughout the evening seemed in high spirits ex- pressing his pleasure with what seems to be one of the most successful NDP cam- paigns ever. I have a very good feeling about the campaign", hie said. I lagigh at those pundits that say the NDP is in a squeeze. 1 haveseen evidence that the NDP is being receiv- ed like it's neyer been received before." Mr.'Lewis in his speech re-iterated the NDP policy o0f a tiiipricestt1ni -one for Canadian consumers and one for export. Speaking about the "price freeze nonsense Rip Van Stanfield is boring the elec- torate with", Mr. Lewis said, "the Tories intention is freez- ing the wage of the working people." "Thle fact is the Conserva- tives are totally comrnitted to the existing speculative housing market that is worse than a casino with ail the odds in favour of the develop- er and speculator. The reason for this is, of course, the Tory party harbours more speculators, and developers than ail the rest of Canada's political parties," hie said. Mr. Lewis gave the exam- pie of the conservative cand- idate in Peterborough, Duff Roblin, "who amongst other directorships and presi- dencies, is head of CP lnvest- ments and Marathon Realty, Mammoth developers both". "These men are not about to tamper with a housing system that is making them - rich. And they are not concerned about the thous- ands of young people who will have to go into hock for support."
