No worker needs to be unemployed in this bountiful land; no farmer without a market for his pro- ‘duce. “The LPP is fighting in this election campaign, as it does . the year round, for policies which put Canada and the peo- ple’s welfare first, for policies that will open up the vast markets of China and the so- cialist part of the world to the products cf our agriculture and industry.” PATRONIZE CEDAR FUEL ~& TRANSFER Phone: 566-R-3 Cedar, B.C.
