JAMES LIBERAL NOMINEE FOR DURHAM This wcek bas been for us, anc cf the most interesting since the election began, because we've been meeting and talking ta peop- le throughout the country, espec- ially in Port Hope and Cavan townships and in the village af Milbrook. It has really been an education. We've learned a great deal about the political leanings of the peop- le and we've learned much about local history which, from a news- paperman's point of view, was fascinating. We've also, leanned that Durham county is one of the most beautiful scenic settings in the wonld and we can easily un- derstand why aur forefathers caming out from Britain decided ta settie in this part of Canada. At this tirne of year, when every- thing is green and growing and there is evidence of activity an the farm iands, there just isn't anything ta bcat it any place we've scen. Naturally, anc of the I finest features of aur trip througli the rural area was that cveny- wberc we visited, we met friendly healtby folks wbo were interested in governmnent, were enthusiastie about thear farm work and opta- mîstic about the future of Cana- da. There were no sad, disgruntled people and there was considerable evidence af pnosperîty. On the tobacco and the tomato farms, we arrived just at an op- portune time because the week previaus thcy had been spending anxious nigahts wondering if a frost was going to wipe out the planting they had been doing, 'but it was bccoming warmer the eanly part of the wcek and the farmers wene much relieved. We came ta the conclusion that farmers and their wives were fan better acquaintecl with politics than many people in the towns. We also became more certain that governmcnt policies were not regi- menting farmens but wene giving them the assurance that the crops tbey are rigbt now working s0 hard ta develop would be market- ed at good pnices. We found veterans wbo had been enablcd by the gavernment to buy their own fanm businesses and were working away with nrighter pnospects for a prosper- ous future. We found modern ma- chinery with modern buildings and fanm houses with conven- ences for the busy bousewife and a general feeling of weli being throughout. Everyone seemed happy and pleased witb their lot, so much so that it made us feel good inside ta talk ta them. We asked about the famous Ca- van blazers and beard their bis- tory. We also askect anc of the S Staples clan about bis family bis- toy and learned that seven gen- nations ago, bis ancestors, a bus-a and and wife and eight boys n ýame ta this country fnom Ireland . 'he wife died on the Il week trip ut the Staples name was kept oing by the boys until at a re-c nion a few years ago, aven 2,000 s lescendents of that original fam- r y wcre present. We heard of a a uge bouse wherc an anmy colo-e i lived with a company of sol- iers. The bouse bad 1l fireplaces c nd xvas beautifully decorated a vith black marble staircase and t milan appointments. 1 And we made it a rule not taoc alk politics unlcss the persan nentioned the subject first, but n practically eveny case, before 'r ce had taiked five minutes,' the u ubject arase. Usually it xvas an t ýtburst of intense dislike for a. bat man George Drew". Many P ecalled bow be bad forced cock- ai ils bars down the throats of the a! ýeople, othcrs mentioncd the in a] rnvcarience tbey bad suffered t Inring the bydro shontage andW amed it on Mn.

AIl of tht-m likedi e local Drcw representative but tc alized that, as much as tbcy cc ;ould like ta vote for him, that G ey would only be voting for m r. Drew and that wvas gaing tao r. It was an eye-opener ta hear in esc remarks and ta hear them, Lote praminent local Conserva- d« .'es xho feit the same way about 0 or As we cantiriucd aur tour in the ope of meeting as many people or t t t e b bL gC Ur de ilý hu ne dig ar Si sir ta] ME in hi re( tai thc mi the~ ri ~as possible before electfbn, we hope ta hean much more interest- ing bistorical mateniai wbich we shall store up in mmnd for future articles. If you find it as fascin- ting as we bave, we know you'Il want ta read about it. The campaign is going forward and is beginning ta become a little warmer. Fnom ail reports, the Li- benals are impnoving their posi- tion as they go alang with Prime Minister St. Laurent 'bcing warrn- John M. Jamees ]y received wherever he and his graciaus wife make an appear- ance. This week much of the wind was taken out of the Conservative sals by the announcement that instead of the export markets be- ing a thing of the past, the exports are higher than in 1948 for a cor- responding period. In addition, no Narth Star planes have crasheci to enable Mr. Drew to cash in on that uine of govcrnment attack, there is every evidence that 'busi- ness will continue ta be good for the year; the people certainly don't feel that the Liberals have been dictators and they appreciate the fact that the -budget lowered taxes, giving everyone a real break; they like the family allow- ance cheques and the increase in 1ld age pensions; they like the Liberal m2thod of running a dlean campaign without tearing down anyone else with abuse so that there is very littie left for the Conservatives ta work on. They alsa appreciate the fact that when MIr. St. Laurent made the state- ment that the CCF were "Liberals n a Hurry" he was referring ta social welfare measures and flot tate control. After the paper is out,'we shall again take to the road ta learn more and ta meet more fine people of Durham County. Thurs- day evening, there will -be a com- munity get-together at the Canton' Community hall in Hope tawn- ship, Friday Cavan and Millbrook people will meet in Millbrook for n evening's entertainment and arly in the week, we hope to get ito some of the other parts of the ounty. Last Fniday night we held n exceptionally large meeting at te town hall in Port Hope when Mr. Farquhar Oliver was the out- of-;town speaker and everyone ras most enthusiastic. We're try- ig ta make these get-togethers îuch more informai than the us- ia run of political meetings and ýeY seem ta be met with approv- l. When one cornes ta your area, lease try ta attend. We are most ixious ta meet as many people ipossible bzut time is short. That's tl for this week, except a tribute a ur farmers and their families vho are the sait of the earth..
