Col. Lennox who is again seeking the support of the electors has had thirty years in public life. The electors are justified in reviewing his record and asking what mea- sure of service has he given the riding which has so long honored him with election to a position of trust and respon- sibility. What has Col. Lennox given to North York in re- turn for the support giVen him in the past? When Col. Lennox stands before the electors of the North Yonge Street district he always finds it necessary to take a long time endeavouring to explain his dual association in METROPOLITAN RADIAL negotiations and of his with- drawal from the case when the County for which he has been the solicitor for a quarter of a century became involved in court action. Col. Lennox can talk from now until long af~ ter July 28th, but the people of the North Yonge Street dist~ rict are too familiar with the facts of the METROPOLITAN RADIAL abandonment to be fooled by any honeyed phrases at election time. Col. Lennox is making no headway in the North Yonge Street district which suffered the ABANDONâ€" MENT OF THE RADIAL SERVICE SINCE LAST MARCH On July 28th the electors of the riding of North York will select a representative to the House of Commons for the next four years. The electors should demand SERVICE and SINCERITY from those who would represent them. in explaining. Why if as he says it was not THE HONOR- ABLE THING to act for the COUNTY OF YORK in a court case on account of his association with the T. T. C. how was it THE HONORABLE THING to act for the COUNTY OF YORK 'in a year’s negotiations between the County and the T.T.C. and the City of Toronto. Politicians of an earlier age would find it hard to ad~ just themselves to present day political conditions. Time was, when to differ in politics engendered personal and bitt- er enmity. There are a few people still living who take that view but they are happily getting scarce with the passing years. " “Canada’s Budget is hailed in Great Britain as a big step to Empire trade. We welcome Canada’s gesture with pride and joy, is the opinion published in a leading British Journal, which adds, “the great markets of the future are being offered to us in a vast scheme for Imperial coâ€"oper~ ation.†Another British paper says, “The Canadian Bud~ get may give Britain two hundred million dollars in trade with which to buy Canadian grain.†Such approval from British sources cannot fail to impress Canadians that the Liberals are fully alive to the necessity and importance of Imperial economic solidarity.†The Canadian budget, in favoring Britain, is, without doubt, a step in the direction of a better understanding com- mercially, not alone with the Old Country, but with sister Dominions, an incentive to the other countries within the Empire to seek closer relationship. It is to be hoped they accept the challenge, and that something worth while may develop as a result of the growing sentiment throughout the Empire in favor of making the great political union of the British Common-wealth of Nations into an economic union that will stimulate commerce and increase trade among the Motherland and her Dominions., that “CANADA FIRST†to the help of the MOTHERLAND in 1914 should be “CANADA FIRST†to the help of the MOTHERLAND in 1930. Is there any question as to What should be the attitude of Canada in face of such a condition? There would not be. The DUNNING BUDGET is the answer. And on July 28th the people of Canada will answer in no unmistakable terms When the war bugles sounded in 1914 the old British. Lion AND HER CUBS sprang to action. There was a com- mon danger. They stood side by side, fought side by side, won side by side. There was no questioning on the part either of lion or cubs. The rights or wrongs of the matter were hardly considered, much less discussed. The Mother- land had what she deemed sacred obligations as well as the necessity for self-preservation. Her children overseas askâ€" ed no questions, except “what can we do to help ?†“Theirs not to reason why, Theirs but to do or die.†The Motherland is facing another crisis to-day. It is not war against another country but war against want, aâ€" gainst unemployment. The aftermath of war has brought with it war’s inevitable consequences. The bills for war have to be paid. Honorably paying her war obligations to the United States, taxing her people to the uttermost farthâ€" ing to do so and, at the same time, collecting little or nothâ€" ing from the European allies she financed during the war, the Motherland is in desperate condition. A foe more terrâ€" ible than any she has ever faced is at her gates. The Motherâ€" land faces economic defeat. J. Eachem Smith.

THE HOUGH'I‘ON FAMILY RE-UNION V Col. Lennox who is again a candidate in North York in speaking throughout the riding dismisses the EMPIRE TRADE issue with a few references to such articles as hay, asparagus, anchors and corset clasps. A candidate whose pronouncements on such an issue as EMPIRE TRADE are of such a nature must be likewise dismissed by the electors without any serious consideration. In comparison to Col. Lennox’s reference to Empire Trade it is interesting to note the remarks of the press and statesmen of the MOTHER- LAND. The Daily Express, London: “I have always been in favour of Empire trade.

The people of York County would have been better sat- isfied concerning the unsuccessful negotiations and court case regarding the METROPOLITAN RADIAL ABANDON- MENT had the suggestion of the CITIZENS MEETING held in Richmond Hill when the abandonment was first mention- ed been acted upon. The two outstanding suggestions of that Citizens’ Meeting were that a CITIZENS COMMIT- TEE representing the people, work with the County Council Committee, and secondly that the County dispense with the services of the County Solicitor who was known to be associ- ated with the T.T.C. and secure other counsel. The people of York County are now wondering how much the unsuccessful court action re the METROPOI IT- AN RADIAL ABANDONMENT cost the taxpayers of York County. .
