These attacks had come from Liberal leaders from the Liberal press and from others. He had been misunderstood. Apparently or. Meighen feels that Sims loyalty to the Empire had been called into question. The part that the loyalty Issue plays in the life of the Canadian conserva Tive party is indicated by the fact that to make Hia self straight before the conservatives of Canada or. Meighen went Back and dug up an Issue that was two years old and perhaps almost forgotten by the majority of canadians. Or. Meighen reiterated the explicit statement he Hart made at Hamilton that Canadian troops must not leave Canadian soil without the people be ing consulted at a general election. Or.

Manion mentioned As a possibility in the race leadership of the conservatives. Suited the people As to going to War and had received their approval. That the government of , in the event of another War would make its decision and consult parliament if its decision was to engage in a War the government would order mobilization. The general election would be held while the Canadian expeditionary Force was being mobilized. There would be plenty of time. There had been plenty of such time in the last War. That a nation can throw its Energy into War preparation while an election is taking place. He instanced the War time election of 1917. That if the government of Cazacu had held a general election in before sending Canadian troops abroad subsequent troubles and Cliff Erencen within the country might have been avoided. That no government would engage in War unless it Felt that the people were behind it. Therefor there was no practical fear of the country deciding against the government after mobilisation had taken place. That parliament has the Power to prevent the government from going to War. If the parliament could reverse the decision of the government wha was there illogical about asking tha higher authority the people them selves to say what should be done that if the Empire was again threat ened As it was in 1b14 there was no doubt of what the people of Canada would do or of what the conservative party would do. If there were people in Canada who wished to prevent can Ada from engaging in a War such a that of 1d14 they would Only do 1 Over the prostrate body of the conservative party. Or.

The audience quieted Down and or Ferguson proceeded to charge or Meighen with digging up a corps buried two years ago. He had been in favor of leaving it buried. The Ontario prime minister wound up by saying that if the convention were going to endorse the stand taken by or. Meighen at Hamilton he or. I Ferguson was going to dissociate himself from the convention.

Guthrie made a verbal in opening the gathering by referring to it As the National Liberal Conven he quickly corrected himself amid laughter from the audience by calling it the National Liberal conservative future policies of the conservative party Are expected to be up for s cuss on today. Up to the present it has concerned itself largely with the question of its loyalty. It was the loyalty Issue that indirectly led to the Meighen Ferguson blow up.
