Special Dispatch to The Star

6peclal UlSpatch 10 Inc star
OTTAWA, October 6.-Goaded by
the plight of the farmers of Western
Canada, whose grain has been bringing
some 80 cents net per bushel, Robert
Gardiner, leader of the Progressive
group of IL in the House of Commons,
is determined to force the Parliament
tary session opening tomorrow to con-
slider this condition arising from low
prices for wheat and agricultural pro-
duce
Gardiner. who halls from Alberta, in
an interview today cited the fact That
instead of last years T3 cents bushel
at Fort William grain growers have been
getting 40 cents. After deductln9
freight rates. this leaves an average
net return of 30 cents in recent weeks
One result of the low price era. he
said, has been to trim down lroduc-
tion costs. but while the level is now
about 20 cents per 20 bushels, on the
other side is the fact that lack OF
ability to carry on full operations has
been at the expense of cultivation.
While the main purpose Of the Pro-
gressives will be to voice the attltudc
OF the Western farmers. Garclner ana
his followers realize the price deprea-
sion is world wide. affecting manufac-
tured as we'll as agricultural commodl-
ties, Nevertheless. he said. his group
believes the first task is to find level
on which fair returns must be given
the farmers before the country can
hope to return to prosperity.
Gardner refrained from disclosing
lust what stand he intends taking when
fiscal questions come up in Parliament.
such as the trade pactS framed at the
Imperial Economic Conference and
the national budget. However. 1t IS be-
lieved his group will place much re-
lance on currency reform as offering
q way to brighter days.
Asked whether the Progressives would
urge Canadas departure from the gold
standard in order to narrow the eX-
change period with other ron-gold
countries. Gardiner withheld comment.
He did, however, intimate that prob
lem to face was whether Canada's cap
ital commitments III the Unlttd States
were OF greater financial consideration
than higher prices for agriculture.
Gardiner maintains an open mind
on the recent report on Canada'S rail-
Ways as well as on the ST. Lawrence
waterways treaty with the United
States Regarding these issues and also
the imperial trade agreements; he de-
clared the ProgreSsives desire first to
acquire further information before
shaping their program.

Scruby Should Have Full WrangeIl Vote
 Claims Committee
To the Voters of Wrangell:

To the Voters of Wrangell:
 On the eve of what will probably go down in political history as the greatest election of all time, We wish to call so the attention of the voters of Wrangell, certain impor- tant matters in which we are all deeply concerned.
 While Alaskans do not vote for the presidential candidate nor have we a Senator or Congressman, We are nevertheless vitally concerned in sending a Territorial Delegate who has the personality, ability and will to secure for Alaska all the bene- fits possible, regardless of what party controls our national affairs.
 Delegate Wickersham has shown himself to be such a man as he has held his office during both Repub- lican and Democratic administra- tions and has always been able to St. cure great benefits for Alaska and Alaskans. We strongly urge his re- election to office as he has been tried and found true and there is no use experimenting with a new man at this critical stage of na- tional affairs.
 We strongly urge every voter in Wrangell, regardless of party affil- iation, to support our local candi- date, Dr. R. N. Scruby, candidate for Territorial Legislature Doe" Scruby has shown himself to be a good citizen, a good Alaskan and a great worker for the welfare oi Wrangell. We are sure that had the Democratic party put up a local man of Dr. Scrubys sterling character, the Republicans of Wrangell would have supported him 100 per cent.

 Says James Nolan
To the Voters:

To the Voters:
 The Wrangell Sentinel has gra- ciously and generously allowed me the opportunity to say a few words in support of the Democratic party platform and principles.
 You have heard both sides of the question and there the case rests. There is no need for coercion or persuasion on my part. Most of you have your minds made up as to the various candidates for whom you will vote.
 The Territorial Democratic party has adopted the platform of Terri torial control of Fisheries, Game and Fur, also the platform of self administration and the right of AL askans to self-goyernment in their own affairs.
 The Territorial Democratic party has the full support of the National Democratic Committee and it's can didate for Congress has the full support of the National Democratic Committee.
 Each and every candidate on the Democratic ticket is well qualified for the office he seeks You will make no mistake in giving these men your vote.
 Now it is a conceded certainty that we will have a Democratic Ma tional House, Senate and Admins. tration. Therefore it is to the in- terest of the Alaskan people to have a Democratic Delegate to Congress, and to vote for the Democratic ticket.
