By V.. VICTOR,

WESTWOOD HO: Around Na- naimo Westwood is a name diffi- cult to forget. The former cabinet minister, replaced by popular consent of the voters who pre- ferred a member of the New Dem- ocratic Party to represent them in Victoria, is a hard man to forget, mostly due to the things and places named after him; there is Westwood Lake, Park, Road, Farms, Chapel of Flowers, and now the ferry to Gabriola Island is the M.S. Westwood. However the boy Waccie has sent him to London on a trade mission or something, which only goes to prove, if the voters won’t have you, the Socreds will.

This is the same type of posi- tiog as our B.C. tourist Bureau in San Francisco, California, now operated by a former Cabinet Minister who, by some odd quirk of fate, began to become rather odoriferous (politically speaking, ‘that is). Not that Mr. Westwood has any ‘taint’ other than having. been a SOCRED, and to fifty- five percent of the voters, that seems to be enough “taint”.

STOCK STATEMENTS OF STATESMEN: “Our engineers have the project under study” — P.A.G., Minister of Highways. “To reveal the context would not be in the public interest” —W.A.C.B., the boss. “This le- gislation was passed to protect the workers from themselves” — R.B., the Att. Gen. “Bill 22 was instituted so no one else would be able to exploit the blind, the C.N.1I.B. alone has that privilege” — Socred politician unknown. “We cannot, and will not allow anyone to defame our ministers, we have our own cap- abilities” — Also stated by an unknown Socred, sounds like Waccie.

These and many other classics have originated on the Island, but it is not a reflection of the thinking of the voters of Canada’s Socialist centre where the first Socialist member of the Federal Parliament was elected by Na- naimo people more than thirty- five years ago.

STEWART HITS NPA

‘City will stand still = under new 5 year plan’ |

“Will Stewart’s Vancouver Spotlight” (CKWX, 11380 on the dial — every Sunday evening at 6:55) of September 27 was de- voted to Vancouver’s Five Year Plan, Stewart outlined some of the city’s basic needs such as hospitals,"parks, road building, etc. and contrasted this, picture with what was proposed in the so-called plan.

The N.P.A. council which has been mismanaging the city for 27 years, proposes that Vancouver stand still — in the middle of an economic boom of unpreced- ented scope, Stewart charged.

He proposed a Five Year Plan which would clear the city of much of its blight, expand and modernize the port, build thous- ands of low rental homes and greatly increase badly needed public facilities.

“Where will the money come from?” Stewart asked. “I suggest that the city council draw up a program based onthe needs of the city as outlined above. Take it to

“We must let the city counclh and Victoria, and Ottawa knoW that we are not going to sit idl by any longer and watch of beautiful city literally go to P and not keep up with the challeng? of the times.

«What about it, Mr. and Mf Vancouver?” Stewart conclude™ «Forward with the times — ° quick march in reverse with N.P.A.?”
