Raney in the Globe of Tuesday, August 11, should be of in« terest to every good citizen. "But, Mr. Editor, it is more im- portant to clean up the Customs mess than to fix responsibility for it, and the party that presents the best cleansing program to the electors be- tween now and the 14th of September will be entitled to the most credit. The source of the trouble is the in- timate asociation between the Cov- ernment of Canada and the distillers and brewers. The Government gives countenance and protection to the rum-running business of the dis- tillers and brewers, out of which they make mililons of dollars every year, and in return for this favor the dis- tillers and brewers make contribu- tions of a few hundred thousand dollars at election times to the cam- paign funds of both political parties. The distillers and brewers of Quebec are friendlier to the Liberals and the distillers and brewers of Ontario are friendlier to the Conservatives, and for the purpose of the trade this works out very well, : The remedy is very simple. The Stevens committee pointed to it. Mr. Stevens himself pointed to it in his 'Toronto Speech. It is simply for Mr. Stevens to refuse clearance to rum-running craft. Is he doing it? This is a time when campaign funds are in demand. Are the political parties again putting them- selves under compliment to the dis- tilers and brewers? ; nmr JP romnirme CLERK'S NOTICE OF FIRST POSTING OF VOTERS' LIST Voters' List, 1926, Municipality of the Village of Port Perry, County of Ontario.

Five days work per week would be good for business because the leisure day will give the worker a chance to develop new wants, and a consequent new set of customers. - Xie Nearly every social theory, when stripped 'of its emotional trimmings, gets down to a formula for living without work.
