“They built the Grea
- Wall Faster than |

a

China

the Skeena Bridge”

Scott Wallace, Provincia!

' Leader of the . Progressive

Conservative Party addressed a
public annual meeting of the
Skeena Provincial P.C. Assoc.
in the. Elks Hall on Saturday
Sept. 14. Approximately 30
people: attended the pot-luck

‘supper and meeting.

Tha Conservalive Leader
remarked thal since he had first
visited Ihe area two years ago
there has been little progress in
two important projects, He said
that the Chinese probably built
the Great Wall faster than that
bridge. He said that the Kit-
sumkalum ski hill is another
example of buck passing and
delay and delay. He had
reminded Hartley Dent in the
Legislature last May that he
had promised that if there was
notskiing on Kitsumkalum in 73
he would resign. Wallace said’
that it is unfortunate that TV
and radio have pre-empted the
right of the voter lo com-
municate personally with their
MLA. He was referring to Mr.
Dent’s current series of TY and
radio spats to pass on the party
line. He added that it was ob-
vious from the amount af
communication he gets from
people in Skeena that they are
poorly represented In Victoria.

He assured the audience that he
would see that any. complaints
they had got to the right hands
and received an answer,

» Wallace said that it is very

‘bad for the province to swing

from the far right to the far left

and back again, Hesaid that -

many people were taking a

- negative approach to pravinelal

Politics in feeling that the only
way to gel rid of the NDP is to
vole for the same government
they threw out. He said that the
reason for the fall of the Social
Credit party was thatit got out
of touch with the needs of the
people. When they had dif-

-ficulties, the first items to be

chopped were services of

. people, schools and hospitals,
“TT there was a surp: ;
hundred million left by W.A.C.

Bennettin the kitty,” demanded

us of five

Wallace, “why did we have
those school and hospital
freezes?’’ . In fact, Wallace
believed there was a surplus of

-more.like.one hundred: million..
*. Wallace -urged mernbers to -
eprepare policy papers © on
Several specific topics and other

topies of personal concern to

them, These papers should be,

ready by October. 19 for sub-

“mission te the Annual Con-
., vention, although members will

have a chance to present

« resdlutions from the floor of the
; convention, Dr, Wallace stated

thal ‘the Conservatives will not

be following the Soclal Credit. .
' model of a Harrison Holsprings

Conference of experts not
willing to identify themselves as
Soclal Creditors who draft the
resolutions before submitting

' them to the membership later
~ at the main canventisn,

Wallace stated thal, in contrast,
Conservative policy will be
written by Individual members.

Wallace urged members to

‘attend the Conservative Con-

vention will .be -held in
Kamloops, November 30 and
December 1. Wallace declared,
"As long as I'am leader of this
‘party it is not going to be a
Vancouver party. It is going lo
be a B.C. party. .

In serving on the Legislative
Committee on Education which
is presently holding hearings
throughout the province
Wallace said he has been
gaining several impressions on
the problems involved in salary
cbargaining. He said that it
that simultanious
collective bargaining in sixty-
four. separate districts
