That part of the country, he said, was thinking more in terms of Confederation and Canadian unity than the east, and since the west was prepared to make concessions he urged the east to at least go half way. Western people will appreciate this tribute to their good intentions. They never. believed that 'those who portrayed westerners as wanting everything in sight represented all the people in the east. It is Quite true that Confederation was found- ed upon compromise and concession on the part of the uniting provinces and it is equally true that the same spirit must be continued. Ir must be recognized that that is not merely a fine motto to De repeated upon suitable occasions; but that it must be lived.up to or the bonds of Con- federation will be subject to the severest kind of strain.

The King government has in times past demonstrated that it was glv- ing the people these things. The other night thieves broke into a garage at Atwood and stole goods valued at $220. The village police- man Is part owner of the garage. Perhaps it will be a consolation te e has a com- plete description of the stolen goods. The good things the Robd Budget did for the people of Oshawa, en- larging factories and giving 'more employment to men, will be broad- ¢ast over the Dominion. What the! Liberal budget can do for 'Oshawa, can be repeated at other places. ---- Proof that St, Paul ani St. Peter actually dled in Rome is ciaimed by archeologists in results of recent excavations on the site of the bas ilica of San Sabastian.

It is thought thas she used her own ernment, but it is afflicted with ad- ministrators who are not capable of initiative, Years have passed and the most urgent public improve- ments have not been realized. Enter- prises of public utility 'which would have necessitated loans that ealled for the approval of the tax-payers have not been undertaken for that very reason, our administrators hav- ing been incapable of fulfilling that formality during a of years. This inedpacity has handi- capped the city in its progress and growth." : La Presse hopes that the coming campaign © will be cleanly fought upon real issues. g . "It now remains to be seen when and on what platform the ¢lection campaign wiil be conducted. With- out prejudice, it is to be hoped that on one side as the other there will be no manoeuvre directed to hide the veritable questions that ought to be debated. If too often the electorate has seemed powerless to usefully ful- fill its task, the fault has been due to the fact that-in the past too much Ingenuity has been displayed to ob- scure the true issues and substitute therefore subterfuges. Let the na- tional problem be clearly submitted and the Canadian people will be able to make a response that will be at once clear and decisive." Here's The Explanatjon.
