Phone 70 Flerfierton An Urgent Message from GEORGE DREW TUNE 4th is Election Day for the members of our armed forces overseas J from Ontario, as it is here at home. The arrangements which have been made provide ample time for the overseas vote to be taken. Special Returning Officers are already overseas. Something more, however, must be done if our voters overseas are to know why an Ontario election was forced upon us at this time. I appeal to each one of you who read this message to write NOW by airmail Give our men and women overseas all the information you can and be sure to tell them the correct name of the Provincial Riding in which they are entitled to vote, and the name of the candidate. This is of the utmost import- ance because so many of them have never voted before and the difference between the names and boundaries of Provincial and Dominion Ridings make it doubly necessary that you be surs to give them the exact name of the Riding in which they are endded to cast their ballot on June 4th. If you are in doubt as to any details please call the Progressive Conservative Office in your locality and get the necessary information without delay. Be sure fo fnd this air mail today. The election dote June 4th. The name of the Riding it The name of Hie Candidate is Yours sincerely. "^U^' a PUBIISHED BY THE PROGRESSIVE CONSERVATIVE PARTY OF ONTARIO 1
