Hall, Liberal Candidate) To The Electors of Grey-Bruce: I have bsen informed that my inability thus far to arrange for a meeting in Grey-Bruce is due to the fact that I Km. not desirous of having Miss Mac- phail too strenuously opposed by the Liberals. This is not so. We, as Lib- erals, intend to use every legitimate means to elect our candidate. Dr. HaJl. Doubtless this assumption arises from the consideration shown Miss Mac- phail from time to time by myself and other Liberds, including yourself when you were member for Bruce South and she was member for South-east Grey. Now that these constituencies have bean combined, the situation and the at- titude towards her by the LiberzJs, including myself, have necessarily com- pletely changec It must never be forgotten that those who are not for us are against us. Since your election in 1925 our Party has had no more steadfast upholder of its principles and policies in Parliament than yourself, nor have 1 had a more loyal and devoted supporter. In the circumstances, I cannot urge tcD strongly that all electors in Grey-Bruce constituency who desire to see the return of the Liberal administration to power and Liberal principles and policies prevail in Canada in the next five years, should give their support to you, as Candidate of the Libc!rai Party in the present election. Shoulc" the Liberal Federatio^n find it possible to arramge a meeting in the con- stituency of Grey-Bruce, I shall be glad and shall make this statement pub- licly at the time. Meanwhile if any canvass is b«ing made against you on this score mentioned, you have my authority to give to this message what- ever publicitv you think advisable. W. L. Mackenzie King J
