AUGUST 29, 1935 The Statesmnan Is Not a Political Organ A general election carnpaign for the federal bouse at Ottawa is under svay, and in the ensuing few weeks politics will be a favorite topic of con- versation. It is therefore expedient at th.is time that The Statesman reaffirm Uis position relative to political parties and their campaigns. The Statesman is an inclependent newspaper. It is not connected with ans political party, or is it in party politics. For several years we have reserved the rigýht to criticise or compliment in these col- umuns ans party on Uts policies. Vie honestly be- lieve that party leaders have more respect for an independent press than they have for parts organs who are tethered to political parts year in and year out. regardless of the papers opinions. We C'o flot believe than ans political parts has a monopoly of political brains or wisdom. That ls whs lu this critical period of our country we have advocated a national government. Likewvise we do not believe lu ans governiment having such an overwhelming majority that it can run the af- loirs of the country without. a strong and adequate opposition. Vie wish it to be clearîs understood that political p;arties mas use space in this paper as they desire to brin., to the attention of the public their partys platform. provided that the advertisements are flot offensive. Vie might add also that it is equalîs important that when these advertisements are llaced with us, we shaîl expect a guarantee of payment bs one or more responsible citizens. Too often newspapers have experienced difficuits lu collecting their polîtical advertising accounts. It will be our endeavour, insofar as our limited staff makes possible to give an impartial and unbiased report of the political meetings in our news col- umns as we have room for them. Vie believe that a local newspaper holds an un- ique and important place in the community. It con best serve by trying to be representative of the community as a whole. and flot represeutative ol one section. Vie do flot las ans dlaim to neu- trality. but rather to independence. Vie do not. sit on the fence with our legrs dangling on both ides. but rather we deal with public questions front the wider sphere off the countrys greatest good for the greatest number-. Vie are confident that the greater number of our readers will endorse oui, attitude on this ques- tion. There are those of course. who will remem- ber this newspaper sears ago as a rabid parts or- gan. but fair minded people will appreciate our present stand to remain aloof fromt parts do- mination. Vie seek to be independent in the know- ledge that no one parts can possess alI the virtues or promote ail the desirable policies. In reserving Our right to endorse or reject ans policy we con- scientiou.sly believe it is in the public good and we are fulfilling the expectations of a local newspaper in a service to its chosen community. Local Nurseries Big Boost to Town Driving into Bowmanvile from the east, th, oither day. wve could not but admire the vers lovely approach to the town. The two nurseries at this end off the towu, the Downham and the Brookdaie- Kingsway. are to be commended on the very won- derful :miproveînent and landscape beauty they have made on either sîde the main highwýay'. Tourists coniug through Bowmanville fromn the east get a distiuctly plem~ant and favorable im- pression off the to'.vni as they aPproach the busi- ness section. It is a ID;ts that the western en- trance i. nor a- strikingly beautiful . at.hough sev - eral fine gardcns and rcsidences oo give the cei- trance a dlean and tudv appearance.

It might flot be out off place here to mentiont that however beautiful the appearance off a town nias be. business will go right past their doors unless merchants make, a dctermiued effort to brighten up their soe and window diIllays. It is true mous have paînted and decorated thoîr 'atore exteriors this year, but there are stili too many store interiors thot immediately take one back to the coal lamp era of business. Bright approaches, an attractive and prosperous business section, aud well dressed window and store inter- lors mean thousands off dollars in catch trade fromn tourists during a -summer as well as regular busi- ness frorn People of the community.
