However, perhaps the money

“was not really wasted, for, in

due course, 10 years later, came
about B.C.’s present fine hos-
pital insurance. But, by that
time Pattullo was out, probably
because he couldn’t bring: in
his health insurance, as he had
promised, and others received’
the credit when today’s hos-
pital insurance was born. ,

Pattulo was always far
ahead of his times. .That was
one of his drawbacks—for or-
dinary folk are suspicious of a
man who can look too far into
the future. Years and years
ago he said, for instance, that
old-age pensions should be on
a. contributory basis,. that
everyone, even millionaires,
should receive the | pension.
