B. C. MIXUPS

Notwithstanding anything that may be said to the contrary, there was no “Conservative defeat" in British Columbia election for the good and sufficient rcuson that the Conservative Flirty did not enter the contest, due to ‘inieinzil dzssensions. Up to 1926 the Conservative Party ln British columbiii was split in two over the leadership, one half sup- porting Mr. Ix-cn J. Liidner repre- Ienting South Vancouver at Ottawa, and the other supporting Hon. W. J. Bowser, recently deceased, who had been Premier 1n 1015-16 and Leader I the Opposition from 1910-24. At a Conservative Convention at Cam- loops in 1926 for the election of Leader a deadlock ensued, and ul- timately Mr. Bowser withdrew. His supporters immediately substituted Senator J. D. Taylor in his place on the ballot. Mr. Ladlicr, after four ballots failed to get the 60 per lent of the votes necessary. After on adjournment Mr. Ludner and Senator Taylor got their respective lollowers to agree to select as a lomprcmise the Hon. Dr. S. F. Tol- Iiie, MP, formerly Minister of Agri- lulture. Dr. Tolmie at first declined lhe offer, but, under pressure from r11 sides at length fCillCL11ll!ly'C0n- rented. But Lfr. Bowser refused to be a party to the (ienl.

through the prevalence of dull trade Ind the necessity of providing un- " employment relief. In 10:11 this had

‘ v increased to sum an extent that

the Provincial (h. cfllmtlllt found it necessary to appeal to Ottawa for assistance as provision had to be made for 26,000 unemployed. A movement was then started by the Liberals for a Coalition Government rnd to this Dr. Tolmie finally n- greed, but was unable to get the agreement endorsed by his Party, Mr. Bowser immediately re-entering politics and lining up his supporters lgainst the proposal. Dr. Tolmie adhered to his decision, however, Ind when the election was declared I was with a Coalition or Unionist flovernmeiit that he went to the ponntry. The Provincial Conserva- Ivo Association refused to support In Coalition and dbclded its or- Ianization should not take part ln In election. The Liberals m only Refused oflfclally to recognize the Coalition, but decided to enter the oontut against it; and thud thei-"e . was the unique spectacle of one his- ‘ lorlc party campaigning the first lime without having the other his- toric party as opponents. Instead there was a host of minor aggrega- tions, chief of which was the Coal- ition government nominees, without organization of any kind behind them, running on their individual merits. The chief danger feared was the return of a. considerable number of Communists headed by the 0. 0. Fs and consequently the ma- jority of Conservatives supported the recognized Liberal Party, on the principle that it is better to deal yfth the devil you know than the devil you don't know. This is the wftuation in a nutshell in British Columbia, and to claim the return of Mr. Pattullo as a great Liberal victory is merely to misrepresent the facts. Conservative policies or y principles were not at issue; a dif- ference recording leadership dis- rupted the Provincial Conservative Party, resulting in its refusing of- ficially to contest the election, which "Vent to the Liberals by default.

onward there was an almost unin- terrupted fncnease in the number fo these field crop competitions un- til 1920, when a total of .012 were conducted throughout Canada with practically all the kinds of crop common to Canadian agriculture. Since then these field crop compet- itions have continued to flourish and School Fairs have come to add to the general interest. h

All this is well since Canada, with millions of acres of undevel- oped agricultural land (and fai- too much that is cultivated in a more or less haphazard way) must always depend to e large extent upon its farm products for its prosperity and progress.

An American Associstii . l\5s dc-

spatrh from Washington tells that

the United Slates Tariff Commis-

sion is to investigate an hcrcase in imports, this “to determine wheth- er additional measures are needed to protect. the higher wages and prices sought in connection with the N.R.A." This should be of interest to Canada. The interest which the situation liolds for Canada is in its’ relation to talk about reciprocity.

What it shows, in fact. or ivliat it

seems to show, is that so long as

the NRA is in operation, prospects, of the United. States tilting more’ Canadian imports are exceedingly slight.

Nothing is more clear at pres. ent than that our trade futuro is with the British Empire.

EDITORIAL NOTES

There have been unusually heavy shipments of Canadian bar- i-oiloa apples to date this season to the United Kingdom markets. Up to October 20, the wtol was 910,824 barrels, representing 171 per cent. in excess of the 388,093 barrels shipped to the correspond- ing date last year.

The following comment is from a. New Brunswick contemporary: "The New England States estimate their potato crop this yen-r at 50,000,000 bushels, or about 2,500,000 more than the average for the last five years.

If you were to examine the re- cods of any well regulated hospi- tal you wculd find that these re- cords were practically the same as any other, in fact, the same as the records in e'l hospitals.

Dr. F‘. K. Boland, Atlanta, gath- ered the tecords of 4.270 CF08 of acute appendicitis in which treat- muit was given by 197 surgeons from 1927 to 1931. Of this large number all but 46 underwent oper- ation.

Whit do these records show?

Tile records show that of 219 ca- ses operaed on less than 0 hours after the ons:t of the symptoms there was not a slng'e death. Think of that for a moment; not a single death in acute appendcitls in 219 cases undergoing operation, simply

Business Recovery In The Maritime Provinces

— (Royal Bank of Canada October-Idiot‘)

that improvement has been fairly general.

Coal production has expanded u a result of ‘the increased demand from the steel companies. The out- put of the Cape Breton colllerlea of the Dominion Iron & Stool Cor- powation amounted to 849,000 tons in September, as against 297,000 tons in August Ind 191.000 tons in September, 1982. The total produc- tion of coal in Nova. Scotis during the first nine months of 1833 amounted to 2.891.000 tons as com- pared with 2,340,000 tons during the same period in 1032. It is ex- pected that the collierler will con- tinue to operate extensively until well into November.

Much has been written about the self-sufficiency of the Maritime Provinces and of their exceptional capacity to endure hard time: without undue suffering. In actual fact, there are two kinds of econ-

In the past and particularly since the depression of 1920, recovery has come more slowly in the Maritime Provinces than in other f!!!“ °3 Canada, but the present strong upward trend has been shared to the full in the Maritimes.
