On Thursday evening Dr. Frank
P,. Patterson, leader of the British
Columbia Conservative party, spoke
at a public meeting in the I.0.0.F,
Hall, Mr, Jnumes Nelson was in the
chair, and after a suitable introduc-
tion Da. Patterson proceeded with
his address.

Paying tribute to the ladies pres-
ent, he remarked that 52% of the
BC. electorate was comprised af
ladies,

Dr. Patterson. said he hnd been
drafted as leader against his wishes.
He had had no personal organization,
did not have one now, and did not
intend to hive one in the future.
He was opposed to personal organi-
zations because the members of such
groups usually made demands for
Y|themselves, and such matters often
led to public money being wasted.

The earlier part of his address
dealt with the period of transition
through which B. C., along with the
rest of the world, had been passing
during the past few years, and
which is not tompleted as yet,

He traced the histories of other
depressions, and showed how hard:
times always brought into being new
and radical parties.

In the present period it had
brought into being the ©.C.F., and
while he was in favor of many need-
ed reforms he did not ngree with
that organization in its plot to over-
throw the present economic system.

He did not feel that B.C. should

place the reins of government in the

hands of the C.C.F, Already, before
they had ever tasted power, they had
split, and at present the two fac-
tions were fighting each other. If
that happened while they were still
in opposition, it was easy to imagine
what would take place were the re-
sponsibility of government placed
upon them,

While there is a demand for the
change of system, most folks over-
look the fact that great adjustments
have taken place. We huve the W.
C.B., T, B. preventative work, child
care, labor regulations, minimum
wages, and many other social luws
that a few years ago would have
been considered revolutionary, Many
other big, changes equally heneficial
would come without the system ‘being
changed.

What is needed is not 9 new group,
but better men and women in our
public life.

‘Dealing with the C.C.P. platform,
he said thut many of the plans were,
as Mr, Connell had stated, imprac-
ticable, and some of them were pure-
ly Communistic. Their operation

: would bring a dictatorship, and Can-

| Says C.C.F. Unnecessary---Pattullo An Autocrat

ada, with the rest of the. British
Commonwealth, had found Demoec-
racy the best system of government,

Socialized finance would drive all
capital out of B.C., and the prosper-
ity of the country depends on pay-
rolls,

The Oriental franchise was utter-
ly opposed to all that B.C. hud fought
for, and, if granted, would lead to a
lower standard of living for ail,

As for uutonomy, .as advocated by
Mr. Woodsworth, there were many
great benefits derived from member-
ship in the British Commonwealth
that we could not afford to sacrifice.
Dr, Patterson said he stood squarely
for remaining a member of that
great association. 7

As for the government taking over
all industry, that could only be ob-
tained by one of two methods—con-
fiscation or compensation of present
owners. Confiscation would be theft
under «another name; compensation
would be impossible, as there was
not the money available.

Quoting figures from census re-
turns, he handed out some very hard

2% of the people of Cannda own
80% of the wealth. -

Turning? to the present ‘Liberal
government, Dr, Patterson cluimed

autocrat the province has ever seen.
He went into Mower on a number of
slogans, _espetially work and wages,
and he. hag {fallen down on all his
promises: --A#l--he has dorieis*to es-
tablish n cohing service east to
Ottawa.

He was not satisfied with “treat.
Iment -he got, fron Bennett; then,
when King assumed power, he. found.
he got a poorer deal from his. Liberal
friends than he had from the Con-
servatives,

He had promised 4 highwey com-
mission, a refunding loan, municipal
aid, He had broken al] these prom-
ises.

‘He was autocratic, and had forced
the. Special Power Act through. He
had burdened the province with the
Westminster bridge, und he had in-
sulted the municipa’ delegates when
they had sought to interview him.

‘Government travelling expenses
under Mr. Pattullo amounted to $205
for each working hour of a 300-day
yenr. And he was handing out a
double pay to the members this year
by the device of a double session,

Dr, Patterson, while he did not
outline a detailed program, gave a
number of points to indiente the
lines along which the Conservative
party intends to work when elected
to power, .-

In this list he includes the cutting
of the cost of governmen, and ad-
ministration. -

Cutting out duplication of Domin-
ion and Provincial services,

Making it possible for more sec-
ondary industries to be started.

Having. practical men on. commit-
tees—let farmers have a large say
in farm problems, and so on.

A highway commission to make an
‘orderly planning ‘of noads.- *
Rational land settlement.

‘The speaker also stressed the fact
that the various governments had
failed to give youth a chunce.. The
young people, he contended, should
be _ encouraged’ to help themselves,
and built up to realize that. their.
success in life would keep pace with

\their efforts for" ‘themselves and - in

FLOCKS OF WILD GEESE
HOVERED OVER LAKELSE
Last Sunday Sammy Kirkaldy and
Frank Gavin were hunting at Lakelse
lake and saw the largest flocks of
wild geese they had ever looked at.
In two flocks about 250 birds were
on their way south, and the hunters
had several good chances to Jook
them over, South of the lake a very
heavy bank of clouds shut down on
the valley and the honkers circled
back over the lake a number of times
as they sought added altitude in the

hope of rising above the ‘bank,
