NORTH GREY VOTERS ! SEND A NORTH GREY MAN TO OHAWA . . . NOT AN OTTAWA MAN TO NORTH GREY ! The people of North Grey are being asked next February 5th to elect a representative in the Federal Parliament. The primary need in such a representative is that he should know the special problems and aims of North Grey. Logically and sensibly, that man should be Garfield Case. If North Grey wishes to have fiill and conscientious repre- sentation in Ottawa that man MUST be Garfield Case. The people of the riding have known and respeaed Garfield Case Ibr more than a decade as a businessman and as a forceful, public-spirited and forward-looking civic official. During his past ten years in public life Garfield Case has obtained an insight into the special needs and the particular problems of the Riding that has been equalled by very few and surpassed by none. In his three years as Mayor of Ow^en Sound he has proven himself an able and spirited leader. His election ' to that office by acclamation for the past two years is proof of the esteem in which he is held by bis fellow citizens. Under his leadership, O^ren Sound has already set up two 'of the most important committees for the post-war period: that of Re- habilitation, for the settlement of armed services personnel on discharge, and that of Post- War Planning, to provide a programme of public works for the city. Ever since his student years at Ontario Aericultoral Colle^ Garfield Case has been closely associated with the Ontario farmer, especially with the men of North Grey Riding who have known and respected him for many years as a friend and as a successful businessman. They too know that with Garfield Case in Ottawa North Grey Riding •will get a square'deal. AN OHAWA MAN FOR NORTH GREY? Against Garfield Case Mackenzie King is nmning Gen. .\ndrew McNaufthton (retired), the man whom his cabinet summarily dismissed from his post overseas. Andrew McNaughton was appointed to the post of Defence Minister over the political body of Colonel Ralston, who was dismissed from that position for stating the plain truth about overseas reinforcements. Andrew McNaughton was appointed to Colonel Ralston's position because he was grilling to ieopardize his good name by defending Mackenzie King's tottering anti-conscription platform. Upon his appointment to his new post McNaughton stated that he believed voluntary enlistments would provide enough reinforcements and that full conscriprion for overseas was unnecessary. If we are to believe that this was an honest statement of opinion and not merely a parroting of Mackenzie King's wom-ou» creed, may we ask where McNaughton obtained the information, on what he based his opinion when GARFIELD CASE PROGRESSIVE CONSERVATIVE CANDIDATE FOR NORTH GREY â-  â-  â- â-  â-  ^^M ^^B^Hi^^-- • ^ HI H ^^^^|H|^Wn- fc. ...

Within a few weeks after his appointment the new Minister of Defence was forced by actual facts to admit that the voluntary system had failed dismally, and to adopt a reinforcement policy which Colonel R ilston described as "half-hearted and piece- meal." If we are to believe that his original posuion w is that of an honest man, would not his only honorable course have been to resign his post with abject apologies to Colonel Ralston and even more abject apologies to the people of Canada and their sons overseas whose safety he hari jeopar- dized.' Andrew McNaughton is still Minister of Defence in the King Government! Mackenzie King is asking the voters of North Grey to condone this disgusting tangle of political skullJiiggery by electing their newest and most discredited yes-man. The voters of North Grey are being asked to "cover up" for Mackenzie King by electing a man whose reckless advice jeopardized the lives of hundreds of Canadian soldiers overseas â€" men and boys from this very riding . . . The voters of North Grey are being asked to elect a man who knows nothing at all of the problems and needs of North Grev. The voters of North Grey will give them their answer on February 5th. THE OOF SOCIALISTS HANG ON Undeterred by their crushing defeat in the by-election in Haldemand-Norfolk last year, the CCF Party is running a candidate in North Grey on the slim chance they might gain something from a split vote. As usual they are sitting on the fence in all matters of national importance. At the outbreak of war they were openly and vehemendy ag;unst any overseas service. Today_ they are supporting Alackenzie King's "ap- peasement" policy in the maner of overseas service. They are still full of promises of "pie in the sky" for all and just as far from the realization of those promises as they ever were. In the cities you wUl find that the CCF hold them'- selves out as an industrial organization. In rural areas thev magically assert themselves to be a "Farm Labour " Party whose sole ifuerest is the welfare of the farmer. North Grey, with its combination of thrivio^ industries and prosperous f^irms will force upon them tit* difficult aad dangerous feat of riding two borses at the same tiiiie. THE RIGHT MAN FOR NORTH GREY Garfield Case is the logical man to represent North Grey at Ottawa. He believes in full and equal mobilization for overseas reinforcements â€" he believes that national unity and national honor can only be served by equality of sacrifice on the part of every one of us, reg;^dless of race or creed. Known and respeaed by farmer and worker alike, he is a man who will always have the best interests of the Riding at heart. From his knowledge of both rural .ind urban conditions in the riding he will be able to go to Onawa armed with the definite information as to what is needed in the riding. Official Progressive Conservative candidate, and a staunch friend of John Bracken, Garfield Case is still an individualist who wiU hold paramount the interests of his constituents. The voters of North Grey will elect Garfield Ca.se for the beuertnent of their riding, their province, and their country. Here, in his own words, is his statement of ^th in the future: "We mtistpretare now /or the days that art aheaJ, keephig m mind that a full victory will guarantee to efery one the right to u-ork, the right to receite j fair rew,!rd for an honest day's toil and the right of etery one to enjoy in large measure a sense qf economic securityâ€" in other words.
