CHALLENGE T0 CONSTITUTION 18 ELECTION ISSUE Declares Baldwin in Speech Regarding Socialist Statements Great Yarmouth, Norfolk, Bug, Sept. 27.--Declaring that the issue af the next general election in Grea: Britain would be the Socialist chal- lenge against constitutionalism and individualism, Premier Stanley Baldwin ionight delivered what was generally considered as his first address of the election cam- paign before a raliy at the G6th annual conference of the National Union of Conservative and Unionist Associations which opened here to- day, Nearly (hree thousand people greeted the Premier, whose first sentences indicated that his speech would consist largely of a long dis- tance survey of general election prospects, Premier Baldwin point- ed out that the Conservative party had lost but six seats - in fou: years, He passed early in his ad- dress to criticism of the Labor party for lack of discipline during the general strike and the stoppage of work in the coal fields. The Labor Par.y leaders never had had courage to say in public what was felt and known in priv- ate, he declared, and until labor opposed its own extremists it would never secure Great Britain's suf- frage. No General Tariff Turning to a discussion of the safe-guarding of industries, Prem- fer Baldwin said that the experm- mental stages were passing away and that if the Conservative party Sr TE --_-- REGENT TAXI 148 Simcoe St, §, Buick and Pontiac Cars _ Prompt Day and Night Service Long Distance Trips PHONE 2477 i -- -- should be reiurned to power, safe- guarding of industries would not be used as a side or back door for the introducution of a general tar- iff until the question of a gemeral tariff for the country had been sub- mi.ted to the nation, The Premier added that no industry would be barred from proving its case for protection before am appropriate tribunal. The Conservatives had no doubt, he said, that the procedure of safeguarding needed simplifying and shortening. The Conservative party, the speaker added, were agreed that there should be no tax orf food. Premier Baldwin indulged in a number of lively tilts at the Lib- eral party, He said he had noticed that the Labor party had said that the Liberal program was lifted bodily out of the Labor program but "water had been substituted for labor wine." This confirmed his conviction that while Labor was "socialism with the courage of its convic.ions," modern Liberalism was "Socialism without the cour- age of its convictions." Pays Tribute to Chamberlain In the course of a brief survey of the Conservative achievements, Premier Baldwin paid a glowing tribuie to Sir Austen Chamberlain, British Foreign Minister, declaring "the whole country recognizes the devotion, the skill and the pati- ence wiht which he handles foreign affairs. A great part of what has been done in Euurope in the cause of peace in the past four years belongs to him and he has already worn himself out in that cause," The Premier paid a second com- pliment, this time to Rt, Hom. L. C, M, Amery, Secretary of State for the Dominions, Mr, Amery, he said, had for the first time eatab- lished close and iniimate personal intercourse between the Govern- ment at the centre of the Empire and the Governments of the var- fous Dominions, Mr, Amery's per- sonal visits, his personal in er- course and his speeches would bear rich fruit in the future, Premier Baldwin asserted. The work of overseas settlement was enjoying the Secretary of State for the Do- minions personal attention and this work, he hoped, would in time bear good fruit, { Premier Baldwin in reviewing the Conservative par. y's legislation, referred to the Trades Dispute Act and said he thought they might say that they had laid the ghost of the general strike regarding un- employment, he sald the place where it existed most seriously was in the eoal mining districts, The Conservatives, he sald, realized that the only thing that could be done for out-of-work miners was Victor 2.
