Stinging
criticism
of
the
delay
and
the
reasons
given
was
voiced
yesterday
by
T.
D.
Pattullo,
leader
of
the

The

ondltlon
applied
on
the

of

to

Into

said
the
Premier.
"It
will
be
called
with'
as
little
delay
as
possible
after
the

No
decision
has
been
made,
Premier
Tolmie
stated,
but
he
thought
the
Inquiry
would
probably
be
held
In
Prince
Rupert.
It
was
likely
it
would
be
open
to
the
public,
he
said,
but
a
decision
had
not
been
reached
on
this
point.
Premier
Tolmie's
reasons
for
not
holding
the
inquiry
now
are
classed
aj
extraordinary-by
Mr.
Pattullo-.-"I
feel
that
I
should
now
make
public
the
reason
which
I
advanced
to
Dr.
Tolmie
over
a
month
ago
as
to
why
the
investigation
should
be
held
Immediately,"
the
leader
of
the
opposition
said.
"It
Is
to
be
noted
that
representations
which
I
made
to
Dr.
Tolmie
were
made
bo-fore
the
Domonion

had
announced
that
an
election
would
be
held
this

badly

was
In

we
were
seriously
worried
as
to
the
condition
of
his
health,
and
it
Is
known
to
everyone
In
Prince
Rupert
that
the
manner
of
his
dismissal
had
a
most
distressing
effect
on
his
health
at
that
time.
"In

said:
"The

there

had
anything

The
evidence,
if
there

Need
of
Business
Man
Many
people
think
that
a
man
must
be
a
good
speaker
in
order
to
make
a
good
representative
in
the
House
of
Commons
at
Ottawa.
A
bigger
mistake
could
not
be
made.
Many
of
our
members
of
Parliament
never
rise
In
the
House
to
debate.
Some
of
our
best
members
have
sat
In
the
House
for
many
years
without
ever
making
a
speech
In
Parliament.
These
man
are
trained
business
men
who
work;
on
committees
of
the
House.
One
of
the
first
things
the
House
Of
Commons
does
each
session
is
to
appoint,
numcaus
committees
(sucn
as
the
fisheries
committee)
to
study
the
details
of
the
business
required
to
be
done
by
Parliament
during
that
session.
Here
is
where
the
most
Important
work
of
Parliament
is
performed.
Here
is
where
Canada
receives
its
most
valuable
service
from
its
legislators.
Here
is
where
elocution
Is
discounted.
It
is
not
wanted.
Men
of
much
verbosity
are
a
bore
and
