C. and H Telephone 833-5351 His successor, Mitchell Sharp had quickly restored the cuts ‘and began preaching restraint \while the government was agreeing to a 30 percent wage increase to the longshoremen and the Seaway workers. This had brought on the railway strike, with a resulting 24 per- cent increase in pay at a cost of millions to the taxpayers. “It is the responsibility of government to provide the cli- mate in which the individual has the opportunity to realize his full potential. This is the society our ancestors came to. Its monuments are all around us.” The opposite of the open society was the closed society “where government is the mas- ter, not the servant of the people; where individuals be- come cyphers to be fed into a computer and told by bureau- crats what to do. I can’t like these tidy solutions which come from Ottawa and are supposed to be good from Newfoundland to British Columbia. “I am not opposing welfare. I don’t want to put the clock back. I just want to make sure the clock is telling the right time." Mr. McCutcheon took the government to task over fiscal and economic policies, saying that it had preached restraint for everyone else but had not practised what it preached. He cited the reduction in taxes by Walter Gordon in 1965, when the economy was already show- ing signs of inflation. This was supposed to be to give the economy a boost, but had turn- ed out to be merely an election gimmick. The candidate also objected to the universal and bureau- cratic nature of the Liberal ap- proach to Welfare matters. “The Conservative Party,” he said. “believes in the open society â€" respect for the rights of the in- dividual as the most important person, no matter where he stands on the economic ladder. “Mr. Trudeau has said that his election to the leadership of the Liberal Party was a prac- tical joke perpetrated on the party by the communications media. If we return him as prime minister it will be a much worse joke on the people of Canada.” Mr. McCutcheon was speak- ing to a gathering of about 100 members of the business com- munity of Newmarket in the Compass Restaurant. In the spring of 1967 Mr. Sharp had budgeted for the largest peace time deficit in Canadian history, â€"â€" some $750,- 000,000. “In the face of infla- tion, he brought down a budget which could only produce more inflation.” Then, at the time when unem- ployment was rising, there were the mini budgets with a sur- charge on personal and corpora- tion income taxes. Wallace McCutcheon. Pro- gressive Conservative Candidate in York Simcoe, last Wednesday launched a double barrelled at- tack on Prime Minister Pierre Trudeau and the federal Lib- erals. He accused the Prime Minister of playing a dangerous game in his treatment of con- stitutional issues and at the same time castigated the gov- ernment for ignoring the real issues, which he said were econ- omic. “Over the years, especially the last three, the government has shown an uncanny ability to do the wrong thing while preaching righteousness. And Mr. Tru- deau cannot kiss away the rec- ord of the Pearson Government. He must, under our system, ac- cept collective responsibility. “He was elected in 1965, and immediately became the Prime Minister’s parliamentary assist- ant. In 1966 he became Minis- ter of Justice. He has been a member of the government and must share responsibility." 0n the Quebec issue Mr. Mc- Cutcheon said “Mr. Trudeau â€"â€" “Trudeau Can't Kiss Away Record 0f Pearson Government" - McCutcheon At one point Mr. McCutcheon held up a copy of Mr. Tru- deau’s book “Federalism and The French Canadians” and advised his hearers to buy it. “He can’t shrug off or kiss away anything that is in this book. As late as August 1967, when he wrote the foreword to it, he said in effect, “These are my beliefs." “Mr. Trudeau‘s policies are having the effect of widening the rift between French and English. and it is going to be difficult â€" especially if the Liberals are elected â€" to re- treat from fixed positions when we start discussing the new constitution â€" one made in Canada. as befits a sovereign nation." He said Mr. Trudeau was playing a dangerous game. He expected Quebec to support him because he is French and at the same time he was trying to gather votes in the rest of Can- ada “As the one French Can- adian who will stand up to Quebec.” He mentioned Mr. ’I‘rudeau’s reference to Mao Tse Tung as I don't like to refer to him as the Prime Minister â€" is tak- ing the position that the issue of chief importance in this campaign is the constitutional one. I agree that national unity must have top priority in our thinking, but it should not be an issue in this election. “Mr. Trudeau's policies are having the effect of widening the rift between French and English. and it is going to be dimmna --..‘..:..II.. :1: ‘Jfln “That magnificent strategist", and went on to quote a passage from the essay on “The Prac- tice and Theory of Federalism", part of which says “Federalism must be welcomed as a valuable tool which permits dynamic parties to plant socialist gov- ernments in certain provinces. from which the seed of radi- calism can slowly spread,” and added. “It isn‘t any wonder that Marcel Faribault refers to him as a doctrinaire socialist." Mr. Cowan is a geologist, formerly on the staff of the Royal Ontario Museum. The ROM is one of his best customers. “Museums are our best customers,” said Mrs. Cowan. “Rockhounds come from all over, mainly from clubs.” (Continued from Page 2) have rock projects and thus they find their way to the L. I. Cowan Mineral Company. In the beginning, he was mainly interested in introducing the study of minerals and rocks to schools. Later the interest developed into a com- mercial enterprise Which' supplied collections not only to schools but summer resorts and gift shops. HUSBAND AND WIFE TEAM Three years ago, Leonard and Elizabeth Cowan and their children moved from Toronto to Thornhill and established their rockhound haven at 27 High- way 7 East. Colorful stones like orpiment from Nevada and amethyst from Port Arthur seem to be in great demand. But the real collector wants some of the rare pieces even if they are unattractive. Where do all these lovely stones come from? All over the world according to Mrs. Cowan. “We collect some ourselves but we buy and ex- change from France, Italy, United States and Can- ada and wherever else we can.” Rambling Around Sealed tenders properly marked as to con- tents and addressed to Mr. R.

He had been a member of the Diefenbaker Cabinet ’till 1963. Since then, he had been “a working politician and Senator," resigning from the Senate May 13 of this year. His business interests were now minimal, and he felt that he could be of serv- ice to Canada and to the riding of York Simcoe, a number of whose residents he had helped during his time as a Senator. He suggested that his listen- ers buy the book and read it. then go out on June 25 and make sure its author held office for the shortest term of any Canadian Prime Minister in 100 years. Mr. McCutcheon closed with a few references to himself and his qualifications. He said he had been “not unsuccessful" in business, and had had consider- able governmental experience. He had been in government ser- vice for five wartime years as deputy chairman of the War- Gord R. LYNE'IT, CLERK 3 HOUSEHOLD Flumcsg When Jean feels the urge to paint she esoapes to a studio provided for her free by William Atwell. a Maple lawyer. He and his wife have bought several of her paintings and have great faith in her ability. Jean says it is invaluable having a place to keep all her paraphernalia, and the only problem is that she becomes so absorbed in her work that she loses all track of time and completely forgets that she has a family. Her husband has bought her a large watch! When Jean delivered the painting she was enormously flattered 1 find that it was the only item to adorn the living' room apart from the sofa. She and the young couple painstakingly hung the painting (over the sofa), and it was a very happy moment. Jean also had an exhibition in her own home on Ryder Road just before Christmas, which was a great success and accounts for the small collection of work now in her possession for showing. The pic- ture she hated to part with. she refers to as “the grey one”, but its official title is “The Philosophy Tree”. It was painted near Richmond Hill and now hangs in a home in Guelph along with a Tom Thomp- son and an A. Y. Jackson. Jean’s most prized possession is a very beautiful water color of a mother and child by Toronto Artist Marilyn Hill, and her ambition is to make enough money with her own painting to buy another by the same artist. After catching a glimpse of the deter- mination of Jean Barnden, I haVe no doubt that it will be gracing the wall in the very near future. She overcomes the stupefying boredom of housework by hiring herself as a cleaning woman one day a week. and paying herself the going rate out of her own housekeeping money! She has just written a short story on this theme which she is hoping to have published â€"-â€" writing is another of her artistic outlets and she has had three stories read by John Drainie, and also written a three act play. Jean says it makes her very happy after a brief pain at parting, when someone buys a picture that she feels is a success, but it embarrasses her hor- ribly when they insist on taking one that didn’t come off â€" but does an artist ever feel completely satis- fied? The vastness and ruggedness of the north appeal to her great sense of freedom. “I must feel free â€"-â€" I can’t stand being confined”, she said as she puffed violently at the log fire with the bellows causing great clouds of wood ash to rise to the ceiling! The fire responded to her determined personality and burst into two-foot flames. I noticed at the library that many of her paint- ings were dominated by blue â€" some time ago dur- ing a spell of introspection she painted completely in this color and still leans heavily towards Rich- mond Blue. Her favorite blue painting is called “The Lighthouse” and was sold two years ago during an exhibition at The Four Seasons Motor Hotel, to a bridegroom who noticed it when he was there for his wedding reception. Judy Thompson, a grade 6 student from Maple, has entered a short story in the annual contest for juniors conducted by publishers Little-Brown and Company. The closing date is not until January 31, 1969 and the prize is $1,000, so if you have any budding authors in the family this could make an ideal project for the summer holidays. Details can be obtained from your local library. (Continued from Page 2) spends the summers at a cottage on Huckleberry Island gathering sketches.
