For the full development of the industries, bigger Interests were needed. nusiness Administration Mr. Hanson expressed the opinion that a business administration was desirable in carrvlne on the 'tfitaness of Canada. The Mackenzie King government had shown Itself to be businesslike in serving notice upon the railways that, if they did not take action within a specified time In regard to the Peace River outlet, it (the government) would take a ha-hd'fteeVr-Th C&nMtan National Railways had also been handled In a businesslike manner by the government which had been big enough to put at its head a man who," within the space of a few (fefrrs, had converted deficits into a oaylng proposition, saving the country greatly In taxation. i Regarding the fisheries, Mr. Hanson pledged that he would i countenance no regulations which I would hamper the people engaged in that industry. As for fish traps j there would be none as far as he, was concerned as long as they were not wanted by the men gaining their living from fishing. "Should such a thing happen," Mr. Hanson i declared without reservation, "and ; I should be your representative at Ottawa, I would resit n and let them hold another election." Speaking of old age pensions. whkh today 46,000 people In Canada, were taking advantage of, Mr. Hanson took the view that these were not in the nature of charity but were the Just due of those receiving them. The present system, however, could be Improved upon he thought. Personally, he was in favor of reducing the age at which the pensions became payable from 70 to 65 years. As for immigration, Mr. Hanson declared that he was opposed to further neonle being brought into Canada, no matter from whatj country they came, until all the people already here were profitably I employed.

The chief speaker was J. W. deB. Farris K.C. of Vancouver who made a vigorous defence in fact and record of the achievements of the King government and exposed much of the sham on which the Conservatives based their plea for office, paying particular attention to wruln statement that had been made by Hon.

New Communication Department In EderalsGavet-nmeDt Mooted By Premier In Ottawa Address OTTAWA, July 22: If the present government is turned, to power, Canada may have, a minister and department of communications. This was intimated here last night by Premier King. He was discussing a reduction in the activities of the Department of the Interior and certain apprehension among some members of the civil service that their positipns" might be imperilled by this reduction. There need blittM car1 of this, the Premier said. Developments of radio a'yiation suggested the need of a Department of Communication? and this, in itself, would probably open an opportunity. The Premier addressed the largest and most enthusiastic audience so far hi his campaign. The big Armouries were filled to the doors and ' at least three thousand people were unable to gain admittance. Once again the Premier stressed Conservative leader on the ground that Mr. Bennett had been trying to evade the issue of British trade development. On the same grounds, he had words of criticism for Premier Ferguson of Otnario. The Conservative leaders, the Premier asserted, might well have supported the government's effort to promote Inter-Empire trade. The cam- the Importance of developing trade palgn could then have been fought I within the Empire. He criticized the c.i ojhef issues. Vol. 1. The Political Corner i Tuesday, JuJx 2(2, 11930 No. 35. Mackenzie King's War Record Some half-baked individual, with more voice than intellect, at last night's meeting shouted at Mr. Farris, who was speaking: "What about King's war record," and was promptly silenced by the retort: "What about Bennett's?" The right thinking man has become nauseated by this constant sniping from the back benches at the one Prime Minister who has done more for the War Veteran than any other Prime Minister within the British Empire. Apart altogether from the absurdity of a man of the premier's attainments (which were of much greater use to his country in other channels) enlisting as a soldier we desire to call th reader's attention to what the great Tory paper of Canada, the TWonto "Saturday Night" has to say on this subject in its front page editorial of May 24th. Speaking of an unfair attack which had been made by some obscure Liberal back bencher upon Mr. Bennett, the Conservative leader, it said, quoting its exact words: "It is of the qame low and unfair character .is the muck Con-"servaUves used to pass out with regard to the failure of Mr. King "to enlist as a soldier, at a time whenhe, wa carp-lpg so heavy a "family responsibility that such a course would have been selfish ' ' ,v " " ' " ."and inhuman." The family responsibility referred to by Saturday Night Included an Invalid brother a doctor who has since died, his aged mother and a sister, all of whom were dependent upon Mackenzie King for their support. Mackenzie King has shown In practical form the gratitude all Canadians feel for the returned soldier. He has authorized and insisted upon the expenditure of many millions of dollars annuully In order to ameliorate In' some degree the hard lot of our Injured and maimed rc-turnd men and their families.
