here last night.

Two meetings were held. The
executive of the B.C. Liberal As-|
sociation met in the Union Club}

 

later a meeting of the elected
Liberal MLAs was held.

Both meetings were closed.

In a statement later, Sam Mc-_
Crea, vice-president of the B.C.
Liberals, said:

“The officers of the B.C. Lib-
eral Association met in Vic-
toria and discussed fully the
results of the recent election.

“It was felt that the Liberal
party remains a most potent
factor for the benefit of the
citizens of British Columbia,
and will come back with great
vigor in the next election. :

“Immediate steps are being
taken to step up organizational
activity throughout the entire
province and organizers will be
visiting every association during
the next few weeks.

“On completion of these in-

The House of Commons last
night approved the. Conserva-
tive government's new economic
program by a vote of 299 to 277
after Mr. Churchill warned .the
alternative was bankruptcy.

The plan also calls for a slash
in imports and continuation of
the wage freeze,

Mr. Churchill said full
schedules. on, arms cutback
necessary for sglvency will be
worked out at the Common-
wealth Economie Conference
here next November.

The government's proposal to
build up exports at the expense
of arms was not unexpected.

Earlier this month, as Brit-
ain’s trade became more unbal-
anced and vital gold and dollar
reserves sagged below $1,700,-
000,000, Mr. Churchill warned
that “very serious measures af-
fecting domestic and defensive

aspects” of British policies were |

being planned.

 

itial steps, plans will be laid for
the calling of an early advisory
council meeting, the date of
which will be announced later.

“An additional meeting be-
tween officers of the associa-
tion and elected Liberal MLAs
was held during the evening,
when general party matters

The statement did not say

whether the Liberals discussed
appointment of a replacement
for Premier Johnson, who is ex-
pected to resign very shortly.

The move by the Liberals
to begin organizational work
around the province follows a
similar move announced recent
ly by the CCF party.
