Pattullo's record either In this city or In Parliament. For their benefit and to remind other here who know but may have forgotten, here are sorrieof the more Important Items: AS A PRIVATE CITIZEN Pattullo took an option with others on the Wood worth Lake water supply to be turned over to the city. This source of supply had been alienated to a former president of the Conservative Association of Vancouver. Pattullo played a conspicuous part In creating a public opinion that forced the McBrlde-Bowser Government to take action which resulted in the transfer of the Woodworth Lake water record to the City of Prince Rupert. The right should have been reserved to the city in the first place but it cost the taxpayers $15,000. Pattullo secured the telephone franchise for the city. Two companies had franchises for the telephone service In Prince Rupert-and Pattullo called a meeting of citizens through the Board of Trade to preserve the privilege for the people of Prince Rupert. He offered to Install the ijttem and give the citizens the opportunity to subscribe for ttock In the enterprlze rather than have It pass to outsiders. The meeting decided to call for subscriptions to Install the system and turn' it over to the city upon incorporation. Pattullo was one of the largest subscribers to the subscription and the system was turned over to the city. Pattullo's action saved the telephone system for the city. A8 MAYOR OF PRINCE RUPERT v Pattullo Initiated the bylaw for the hydro-electric project to be Installed by the largest financial group In Canada and In a written statement he strongly urged Its passage. Pattullo's opponents used the occasion both to defeat him and the bylaw. Had the bylaw passed, the strongest financial group In Canada would have been working for the city and it Is the general opinion that this city would have now been several times its present size. The people who engineered the opposition at that time are trying to do the same thing today. AS MEMBER OF THE LEGISLATURE As member for the electoral district of Prince Rupert Pattullo secured: (a) The erection of the Provincial Government Buildings. (b) A large appropriation for the Booth Memorial School. (c) Five times the city's quota for soldier's houses. (This was made possible through other municipalities holding back for political or other reasons) (d) Eighty-one acres at Salt Lakes for park purposes for the City of Prince Rupert and also annual grants to build the approach tojthe lakes. (e) Appropriation for the building of the road across Cow Bay, linking up Third Ave. with the waterfront. The completed work was handed over to the citizens free of cost to them. (g) (h) An appropriation for building floats at Cow Bay. The Terrace bridge which is welt advanced to ward completion. The appropriation for the building of the Port Clements Tl-ell road,' work on which has been proceeding for two years. Appropriation for the road out of Prince Rupert, work on which has already begun. AS A CABINET MINISTER As a cabinet minister for the north, Pattullo has consistently fought for the rights of Northern British Columbia against heavy opposition from, opposing political and other adverse Interests In the south. AS MINISTER OF LANDS Pattullo Initiated and administered the Government's timber policy which Increased the export timber business over 1200 per cent. He Initiated and administered the Provincial Government's grazing policy for the upbuilding of the stock Industry. He Initiated and administered the Provincial Government's Irrigation policy which saved the southern Interior-dry belt from ruin and preserved such prosperous towns as Vernon and Kelowna. Pattullo has been one of the strongest Influences In bringing about a vigorous Immigration policy In the Dominion of Canada and has pledged the Provincial Government to co-operate In placing Immigrants on the farms of the province. In this connection it Is notable that when Immigration stopped, emigration to the United States started and continued until the commencement of the present policy was beginning to be felt. The periods of heaviest Immigration Into the United States were the periods of greatest expansion, the largest Increase of wages and the greatest shortening of hours of labor. He secured the settlement of the foreshore question as between the Dominion and Provincial Governments, which has been outstanding slnco confederation. Also tho Indian reserve question. GENERAL RECORD Pattullo has been one of the most powerful Influences In the progress of the Province and the City of Prince Rupert. He has worked consistently and persistently for the city. If elected he will continue to use his Influence for the advancement of the city and district and for all Northern British Columbia. Such a man Is worth a great deal to the district and Is receiving the support of those who wish to ' sse the district go ahead.
