Macleod Invites | _ """ '* lOpposition Unit Upposttton Unite Toward Coalitio _ _ An invitation to the 52 Opposition _ members of the Legislature to unite 'against the 37 members of the Gov-- f 'ernment to pave the way for a Labor--Liberal coalition Government s in Ontario was extended in the House yesterday by the leader of the two--man _ Labor--Progressive group, A. A. MacLeod (Toronto-- Bellwoods). Concluding his contribution to the Throne Speech debate, Mr. Mac-- Leod offered a 14--point program as [a basis on which such a coalition \Government, embracing C.C.F., Lib-- |erals, Labor--Progressives and Inde-- {pendents, could be established. i He proposed, he said, to submit an 'amendmont which would remove all 'ambiguity as to all parties' lack of 'confidenc'e in the Drew administra-- tion, which, with its leader, he de--| |scribed as "a disaster looking for a} |place to happen." United action of| |all parties, he urged, was needed so that the Progressive Conservative Party could not expand its present "beachhead" in Ontario into a "bridgehead" with Ottawa as final objective. Opposition members, he said, would have to have courage to take action that would "disrupt and destroy the Tory plans for power." Avoid Wartime Election | If the Government were defeated on amendments now before the House, he declared, it should resign and let an alternative Government serve out its full term, thus avoid-- ing a wartime election. He charged that if Premier Drew "thought he could carry the Prov-- ince on the devil's brew of racial ~ disunity he wouldn't hesitate a moment to disselve this Legislature tomorrow. An alternative Govern-- ment could do all the things this Government has refused to do. We have a solemn duty to defeat this Government and assume responsi-- bility for the affairs of Ontario." Touching on family allowances, | Mr. MacLkeod said Premier Drew| had had little to say about the issue} in recent months "until the begin--} ning of this session, when he made' a very feeble attempt to get out} from under." He declared that "last autumn the Premier went into hid-- £ ing, in fact he left the country to find a new issue." The Premier had left the country (for his visit to England and Cana-- dian troops overseas) "after drop-- ping his Aug. 9 block--buster," Mr. MacLeod said. Mr. MacLeod condemned the in-- troduction of the Communist "red bogy" as the act of a "desperate politician," and gibed at William Dennison +(C.C.F., T oron t o--St. David) that in a recent libel action over an election advertisement Mr. Dennison "got a certificate as a political virgin and $1.02." When he added that 42,000 people in Toronto had voted for Controgler Stewart Smith, Labor--Progressive, Mr. Dennison countered: "He didn't use the label, did he?" "If the Premier thinks he can bamboozle the people by the use of the Red bogy, he's in for a rude| 'awakening," said Mr. MacLeod. | ced im n S n c
