Mrs. Doris Blakey, LPP candidate in Victoria, has challenged Social Credit mem- ber Mrs. Lydia -Arsens to a debate on the central issue in the coming provincial elec- tion — the Socred giveaway of British Columbia’s natural re- sources to US. trusts. “As an MLA, Mrs. Arsens has made a good many state- ments in favor of health foods and various fads,” said Mrs. Blakey in a letter to the press. “But health foods and fads are not issues when one considers the welfare and ‘progress and prosperity’ of B.C. and its people. “Why doesn’t Mrs. Arsens express her opinion on such vital issues as public versus private ownership and de- velopment of hydro power in B.C., or on hospital insurance expanded to include medical and dental services, or on the need for aid to fruit and veg- etable growers and _ dairy farmers, or above all on the loss of our heritage through the sellout of our rich timber, oil, gas, mineral and hydro resuorces to the U.S. mono- polies for a fast dollar?
