Apparently the parties regard it neither-as a vote-getter nor a vote-loser and therefore worthless ammunition. Cer- tainly, while the point is a crucial one, it can hardly be labelled sensational. But the sensational is often the superficial, take Presley to boot. Canadian voters should have been told and. plainly shown that majority rule is not necessarily democratic rule. This is the really crucial point of the whole pre- sent election. We have in the constitution of our parliament certain rules and regula- tions of conduct and procedure which safe- guard the right of parliament. These rights apply to both the government and its opposition. They guarantee that action by the majority shall not be improperly obstructed by any minority . . . and they guarantee the right of the minority to voice its opposition. But these rules and regulations are binding upon both majority and .the minority. A breaking of these rules and regulations by any party in or The government of Louis St. Laurent may or-may not have deliberately mis-used closure procedure on the Pipe-Line debate, but it 18 certainly up to them to show that they didn't for the facts as we have them and as reported by the Canadian Press seem to'indicate that the rules of parlia-_ ment were set aside in order for the gov- ernment to push through legislation that it desired. During his campaign speeches, the leader of the Liberal party has failed to make clear that he considers the rules of parliament above political expediency. He shrugs off the whole performance as unim- portant and the truth of the matter is that it isn't a matter for shrugging off. With regard to the situation of the Liberal party and its strong support from Quebec it is of vital importance that its leader reassure the public concerning the rights of parlia- ment. Mr. St. Laurent is a responsible and highly intelligent well-respected public figure. If he considers it no serious mat- ter to cut corners in parliament, just imagine what an irresponsible leader might feel free to do, Are we to have responsible government, or is there to be further in- fringement of the rights of parliament? This is the issue. No democratic country bilty is regarding the installation of | sewers in front of their property. The property in question was purchased : from J. G. Ottenbrite on the recom- mendation of the Whitby Town Plann. ing Board. Mr. Ottenbrite now wishes to sub- divide the remaining lots in his prop- erty and wishes the Public School Board to share the cost of sewers. He informed council, last week, that the Board had refused at this time to share any cost. A representative of the School Board stated that no further informat- ion could be réleased at this time un- til they had been advised by their sol- icitor on their legal responsibility. FIREWORKS DISPLAY AT SUNDERLAND In many Communities Victoria Day festivities fizzled like a damp fire- cracker, rain forced many cancella- tions of celebrations.

The success of this survey depends on the co-operation of farmers infill- ing in and returning the questionn- aires.
