Dear Ms Stuckless; I read with interest the article by Ron Young, in your latest edition, about Sir Richard Squires. In the 1928 election Sir Richard ran in the Humber District. Perhaps there was a good reason to switch from east to west coast given his political history. His Conservative opponent in that election was my father John A Barrett, at that the time editor of The Western Star in Curling. It was my dad's only venture into politics. Perhaps being defeated 3011 to 632 had something to do with it. (See Smallwood's "I chose Canada," pages 176-179)   Submitted By: NULL
