THE LAST GASP

‘DAILY EDITION

a@GGyeo Wednesday, March 4, 1946.

The shipbuilding announce-
ment made by the Hon. A. C.
Flumerfelt at Victoria yester-
day is the last gasp declaration
of a man who sees defeat and
disaster staring him in the
face. If Flumerfelt was doom-
ed to defeat before, he is now
doomed and damned by his
own act. The announcement
that legislation will be intro-
duced within ten days to pro-
vide two millions for the build-
ing of ten ships, five to be
built in Victoria and five else-
where, is the most transparent
attempt ever made, even by a
government, to pur-
chase support, Individual sup-
port has been purchased freely
in the past with the people’s
money, but here we have a
flagrantly crude effort to buy
all the people at one fell swoop.
When will such men _ realize
that there are some _ things
which cannot be bought?

It is an insult to the intelli-
gence of the people of Victoria
to flaunt such a bait before
fore them, when, at a mass
meeting in Vancouver only last
Thursday, Mr.Flumerfelt heard
Mr. Tisdall intimate that the
shipbuilding plans of the gov..
ernment were still incomplete.
It is simply an intimation that
these plans were completed,
not for the benefit of the prov-
ince but as a hastily improvised
measure to try and redeem the
support which was lost in Van-
couver on Saturday. Over the
weekend, the Tory suipbuilding
scheme was completed, or in
other words, Bowser decided on
a last great attempt to buy
support,

Nothing would please the
people of British Columbia
better than to have shipbuild-
ing go ahead, and the people
of Prince Rupert would wel-|be
come such a measure, but the

Bowser

 

 

politicians who will try ¢0 make

a deal of the kind outlined by
Mr, Flumerfelt are doomed.
Flumerfelt simply made public
the fact that he believed the
people of Victoria could be
bought and that the price was
five ships with a promise of
more to come. Flumerfelt is
pretty much in the position of
the Turks and Bulgarians and
he will receive his just reward,
as they will.

It is funny to contemplate
what this gentleman would
have offered had he been run-
ning say in Prince George. It
would not have been ships, of
course, and it would certainly
have included the immediate
completion of the Pacific Great
Eastern and the beginning of
the construction work into the
Peace River country. Failing
everything else, he might just
as sensibly have promised every
man in the constituency a job
for the life of the administra-
tion at a wage of $30 per week.
Ever since last April, the Bow-
ser bunch have been paving the

It is too bad that C. E, Tisdal)
did not know that this big ship-
building scheme was to be put
through in ten days. Had he been
able to announce the fact he might
have been elected.

Flumerfelt is to have a fleet of
ships to support him ‘in the de-
fence of the Tory citadel in Vic-
toria, while poor Tisdall had only
