"An

PRESERVING

Canadian
Ideas
Conveyed
by

PITTSBURGH,
Oct.

Canada's
ambassador
to
the
United
States,
Hon.
Lelghton
McCarthy,
spoke
In
Pittsburgh
last
night
at
the
Founder's
Day
banquet
at
the
Carnegie
Institute.
Mr.
McCarthy
outlined
Canada's
Ideas
on
the
sharing
of
International
responsibility
for
peace
after
the
war.
The
power
necessary
for
the
preservation
of
peace,
said
Mr.
McCarthy,
is
not
merely
military.
It
is
also
moral
and
economic.
And
for
that
reason,
he
went
on,
the
willing
co-operation
of
the
so-called
lesser
powers
Is
essential
If
world
peace
Is
to
be
made
secure.

OPPOSED
TO
SOCIALISM
National
Chairman
of
Progressive
Conservatives
Speaks
MONTREAL,
Oct.
13
CB
The
national
chairman
of
the
Progressive
Conservative
party,
C.
P.
McTague,
warned
in
Montreal
last
night
that
the
rehabilitation
of
returning
service
men
must
ba
carried
out
with
sympathy,
understanding
and
not
be
bound
up
in
red
tape.
"It
Is
not
enough,"
he
said,
"to
pay
gratuities
and
take
the
risk
that
the
rest
of
the
population
may
generate
a
prejudice
to
the
returned
men."
Mr.
McTague
said
that
his
party,
as
the
one
which
stands
for
full
support
and
reinforce
ments
to
the
men
on
the
battle-
fronts,
can
be
relied
on
to
stand
back
of
the
veterans
in
their
problems
of
rehabilitation
The
Progressive
Conservative
party
stands
"foursquare"
against
socialism
and
for
freedom
of
the
individual
and
will
not
compromise,
with
elements
disrupting
the
unify
of
this
country,
Mr.
McTague
said
in
his
speech
to
a
meetlng.here.
The
national
chairman
said
that
his
party
had
always
been
In
favor
of
family
allowances
In
principle
as
part
of
a
general
social
security
program
but
did
not
believe
it
wise
statesmanship
to
Introduce
them
now
although
It
may
have
been
"astute
preelection
politics."
