ment, in the best interests of all the people, rather
than the tyrannical rule of the PARTY MACHINE as
proposed by Mr, Pattullo and his supporters,

[ am free to support the man for Premier who will
implement the above policy, and support my principles
of Non-Party Government. : ;

2 UNEMPLOYMENT .

I consider this the greatest problem In Canada today,
und will urge that a common sense policy be adopted
it once to give the unemployed the opportunity of
working at profitable labor. I am absolutely opposed
to the dole in a country like British Columbia where
opportunities abound and need only a sane policy tu
create successful ond happy homes.

Tee tite =

Ste

Those unable to work due to disability must be taken
aire of by direct relief until such time as they will
come under the Unemployment Insurance Plan.

3 CONTRIBUTORY UNEMPLOYMENT Insurance

i will support its adoption in B. G. From past exper-
iences we know that unemployment to some extent will
always exist and provision must be made by unemploy-
ment insurance to prevent those who are willing to
work, from suffering through no fault of their own.

4 FAIR WAGES and BETTER Standard of Living

I -will endeavor to secure co-operntion between emplor-
er and employee, so that a more equitable wage and
shorter hours can be made effective. I-belleve this to
be a safer and snner method of securing a better stan-
urd of living for the workers than by the Socialistic
methods proposed by the C.C.F, party,

‘5 ECONOMY

The Government must make every effort to balance
its budgets and continue to keep its expenditures be-
low its revenue,

6 TAX ARREARS AND MORTGAGES —

where found necessary principal paynents and interest
should be deferred ~
Poon.

_ 7 REDUCTION OF MOTOR LICENSES *

I strongly favor a reduction, especially in Central B.
CU... where owners do not get as much use from their’

curs as those who live in Southern B. C., and have the
use of the roads the year round.

8 HEALTH INSURANCE

I stro nely favor health insnrance and would recom-
mend the immediate adoption of maternity benefits
for mothers, and travelling elinies for the children.

especlally in the districts so far from hospitals und
railways. .

HT) ORDERLY MARKETING

I favor every effort te secure for BD. C. orderly market-
ing so that farmers will receive a fairer price for theit
prodnets. yO 4

10 BANKING

sistange extended to industrial and agricultural pur-
stuts. .

11 HIGHWAY COMMISSION

The Highway Commission will prove of grent- value |

providing it is not dominated by men from the South-
ern part of the Proy ince.

tion. from the north on this board. I strongly favor

‘building the highways by. contract, provided of course

that locn} labor is used. I believe that this is the only
system that will get results for the money expended.

12 LAND SETTLEMENT

I firmly hellfeve this to be the most “important plank
iu my platform, as: far as this riding is concerned. I
wonld absolutely abolish the old system of pre-emption
und substitute ‘a sound and up-to-date land settlement
policy, whieh I believe would eure the unemployment
in Centr: UB, C.". giving those in our midst the oppor-

tunity to secure homes and become useful - settlers.

I would insixt that Central B. C; be given, for the first
time in its history, a chance, Ahat the Southern parts
of B, C. have alrendly had, to the tune of many mil--
lions. of showing that we'can make Central B. C. a
farming district equal to any in the Provinee,

Space will not permit me ‘to instrite fully my ideas

on this matter, so I will explain my scheme fully on
the election platform, during 3 my enmpaign.

18 PUBLIC WORKS

15 FREIGHT RATES.

As this is. probably one of the greatest factors in ‘hai. ;

pering the development of Central B., C.,'1 will’ ‘enden-- me
vor to place before the railways a scheme of ‘sliding.

scales of freight rates, so that when farm prices are :
down, the furmey will be able. to compete ‘in the’ ‘mar-
kets, and the railways will, by inereased’ tonnage, male
up for any reduction | in . freight rates,

16 EDUCATION ee _

‘ Ido not believe in forcing teachers salaries down be-

low a fairy remuneration for their services, this wili
not tend to have our teachers adopt teaching as their

life work, whereby we would ‘be deprived of the best — |
. teichers who seck a more profitable occupation. I will

favor n complete re-organization of the high schom
course of study. so that’ children will be educated in
the subjects that prove of most value in the partlenla

* line suited to them. : ;
