B. Ben- nett, leader of the Conservative party of Canada, addressed a large audience at Island Park here Monday. The only answer to the Fordney tariff the Canadian Government could make, he said, was not necessarily the imstity- tion of high tariff but by seeing to it that the people of Canada should have the opportunity of developing their own y for th Ives.

B, Hanson, Miss Bennett was presented with a bouquet by Miss Ruth Flemming, on behalf of the women of Carleton- Vigtoria, During his speech, Hon. -Mr. Ben- nett said that the exodus of Canada's best blood to the United States, fol- lowed the industries that were dup- licated in that country. The U.S. had protected their own people against competition from other countries an so far had filled up the consuming centres in that country with great profit to their farmers.

He mentioned that raw materials were often sent to be manufactured in foreign countries and then sold back to Canadians. ' Canadian boys and girls follow th raw terial over the line and work in American industrial centres and United States farmers feed them. Farm machinery from the United States was sold in ever-increasing uantities in Canada and millions of ollars left the Dominion to make the people to thie south richer and to deny Canadian people their rightful chance. Pulp and ashesfos were sent from Canada to be manufactured in the United States and thus this Dominion was making employment for the people of a Sv steel mills and coal mines were work- ing only part time, he said, and yet Canada bought millions and millions of dollars' worth of steel and coal from powerful neighbors, "And who," demanded Hon. Mr. Bennett, "is taking the place of our young men and women, forced by the Government policy to leave their own homes and country?
