This is a great hour, but an hour not free from clanger. If you doubt it look about you, and think. It is an hour of unexampelled opportunity. The way is open to such progress as has not been known. The solexondition of progress is a clean break with stale political conventions, with the stupidities of party strife. The need of the hour is to bring together loyal-hearted men. , Men who will work first and all the time for the good of their country. Men who do not place party first. Return such men in this great hour and you will assist to build a splendid future. In this way and no other you will receive a strong and fearless Government, and a Parliament that will worthily represent the democracy and do its will. A Parliament that will spend all its energies on the national works that will make the country rich and prosperous, its people happy and contented. So you will help to build a future that for you and yours will mean f Prosperity, Security and' Happiness Ij But there are dangers to be overcome. The danger of the hour is that you, the people, may be divided against yourselves. You have nothing to fear if you stand together. You have little to hope if you are split asunder by political pot-hunters and revolutionary demagogues. ■ > The Wardist Party, for party ends, is opposed to unity. It asks you to support it. To what end? So that it may set up a weak Government at the mercy of revolutionary extremists, and subject to their dictation. Is such a prospect attractive? With such a Government useful effort would be paralysed, security would be destroyed, prosperity would vanish. Failure to achieve unity means strife in Parliament and in the country. It means industrial upheaval, turmoil and loss to all classes. • . ♦ • ■€. Do you wish to avert these dangers ? Then turn a deaf ear to party appeals and catch cries. Give. solid support to the men who stand for unity and progress. THERE IS NO MIDDLE COURSE? "You will vole to realise the promise of the hour ©r to invite its pressing dangers. ■ • . ■ . ,*■'•'■' ..
