NO HOSPITAL ABSENTEES. - DURING STORM Bill - Bennett, “Leader “of the Opposition, charge (eday that having a spokesman for Bache . and Company Canada Limited pessing off their recent dewslelter of January 2ist on mining royally levies predicted for British Columbia as “just an educaled guess, is loo frivolous for the serious “conflict of interast’’ and “insider information"’ possibilities which have not been cleared away. Bennett. said that neither ' Bache and Company nor ihe Premier have cleared up why the language of the letter was 50 precise. The report predicis that “significant insights (on royalties) will be afforded in the : forthcoming Threne Speech”. The report says that it cas “confidently repart that the new ax) legislation will be passed within the curren! Legislative Session”. Whal is the source of these “educated guesses"? asked Bennett, “What is {he reason for the confidence’? asked Bennell. According (9 Benneti, the Barrett, Government,, with dozens of paid flacks and hacks, in and oulside the Goyertunent, is heading toward (he same parade — of unsatisfactory denials whieh followed the first reperts of the Watergate, Scandal in the Uniled States.” Bennett said thal “ihe self- interest of paid hack andflacks was what Watergate is all about.” > Beiniglt! said “that . the ever: increasing Government” in- volvement on the slock marke! was providing un- paralleled opportunity for . friends, and friends of friends, of the Government to benefit from maniputations of the open market by Government, leaving thousands of ordinary market investors oul in the cold. The possibility of ‘an insider stock-markel rip-off should be eliminated.” ‘The Opposition Leader said that, historically. Ministers of Finanee have voluntarily resigned in response to leaks of proposed Government {ax legislation, The language of the Bache report is too specific not to ery oul for a very detailed explanation by the Minister af Finance, Bennett said that the Minister of Finance had been quoted as not having seen the Mining Bill. If this is so, according to: ’ Bennett, “he admits to. being incompetent while the budget for |he next fiscal year must now be in preparalion.” The Bache reporl even seems to know that pollution control . and says “pollution constraints are believed to be important, bul not critical”, “How does this’ *vesument company know this?” asked Bennett. “The possibility of insider information being Jeaked from the Barrett Government must be. cleared - up. -forthwith,”’ s"Bennelt concluded, OLD TIMERS CORNER by Judy Vandergucht With everyone talking about the energy crisis, it brings to mind how the present generation would cope withaul’ electricity... 1 remember the - dime my. husband: worked al Live Fort :for Canadian National -and the only living acummodations were: in. a Caboose which was parked on a side track. ° My first. reaction” was’ panic. when 1. found: na running water and nu power, | had 1a. cock on a waod stove and found get ling up at 4:00 a.m, lo fire up the stove’ for breakfast look some adjustment, My: first ” al. ted-:. biscuits’ produced "a. fine . sel_of paper- weights") didn’ Limiss, ‘he T Ny, or vadia pull, inly’ io, "und. amy “ghoktdnyarneitcken iipayi ith household: chores’ thal would normally-takesa couple, of hours. ~eivilization™ J ran around the house sturming of and off the eleeiie lights and turning: all. ihe waver taps on and vowed | sroulda't take ail “luxuries for. granted lige ban soyry:in report ihat we? have lust!
