Your Vote on June 11th can bring lasting security to your work, your home, your family! Security for your l^ORK Here are some of the definite, practical steps taken by the Liberal Government to give secu- rity to borne and family by assuring well-paid post-war jobs for everyone: For Veterans â€" The most generous plan of any United Nation to get returned men started in the type of work each of them chooses. The Liberal Government is deiermined that every man and woman coming home to Canada shall return to the land of greatest opportunity In the worid. For Workers â€" About a third of all Canadians depend on exports for their livelihood. Liberal plans provide for increasing our exports 60% in value over these of 1939. For Farmers â€" Acting on the belief that all Canadians prosper when tarmers do, the Liberal Government has arranged that they can im- prove their farms and equipment under a new loan plan and has arranged to put a floor under the prices of farm and fishery products. To stimulate employment for all, the Liberal Government has created a special Department of Reconstruction which is now in operation and which will co-ordiuats private and pub.'i.. enterprise. Security for your HdMnE The Liberals believe that the home is the heart of the nation. They air', lo give Canadians ever>- possible facility to build and furnish iietter homes! With Goverimient assistance you can build a home in the country, town or city. This will oaake jobs for the building trades, and those who make building supplies â€" and tliose who manufacture household equipment and fur- niture. New Hoaes for Canadians â€" The Liberal Govenunent's new $400,000,000 National Housing Act, now on the statute books, enables hundreds of thousands of Canadians to get money at low interest and on long, generous terms to build, renovate or enlarge their own homes. Now that Germany is defeated, plans are already in operation for at least 50,000 dwellings. Other practical, workable measures for the security of your home are the Liberal Govern- ment's laws for Unemployment Insurance and liberal Old Age Pensions. The Liberals believe in doing what con be done, as soon as it can be done. If returned to power on June 1 1th, they will carry on and expand the sound, constructive work already started. ' Security for your FA PA I L â-  Family Allowances â€" Starting in July, parents who benefit least from income tax exemptions will receive Family Allowance cheques every month to help them get better food, clothing, shelter and education for their children so they can grow into healthy, vigorous Canadian citizens. These cheques will amount to between $200,000,000 and $250,000,000 a year. As direct spending power, this will do much to help in achieving the Liberals' objective of full employment. Health â€" A National Health Plan will ensure that everybody shall be taken care of while they xre sick and the best measures medical science can devise shall be employed to prevent disease. Despite the efforts of Drew, Bruce, Bracken and other reactionaries, the Liberals are detei^ mined that human interests, the needs of men, shall be placed before "business as usual". The Liberals have faith in Canada, a united country, and in their ability to continue to build, with your support, a more abundant life and greater opportunities for Canadians. Help build this new order of security with freedom. Protect the social gains already made. Vote for your Liberal candidate on June 11 th.
