Has
No

At
Present
Despite
Dispatches,
It
is
Declared
by
Mayor
Orme
A
dispatch
from
Victoria
yesterday
intimated
that
the
Dominion
Government
still
had
approximately
eight
million
dollars
of
relief
money
left
and
would
continue
unemployment
aid
to
British
Columbia
municipalities.
In
connection
with
this,
Mayor
Orme
said
this
morning
that
the
e
lty
had
secured
all
the
money
it
possibly
could
from
the
provincial
government,
half
of
which
had
beeri.put
up
by
the
federal
government.
The
amount
was
$16,250
and
the
city
was
required
to
put
up
at
least
an
equal
amount.
As
a
matter
of
fact,
the
city
had
uni
tmnnn
rnUri
hv
means
nf
a!
:
bylaw.
No
more
money
could
be
secured
at
Drosent.
the
mayor
said.
If
the
allotment
were
made
this
year
on
the
same
basis
as
last,
the
city
would
have
to
pass
another
general
bylaw
covering
some
speclflo
relief
work,
as
was
done
last
year.
The
ratepayers
would
have
to
vote
on
it
,
before
any
money
could
be
spent.
I
So
far,
the
two
governments
are
consderlng
how
they
will
handle
the
relief
this
year
and
an.
announcement
Is
expected
to
be
made
before
long.
At
present
the
city
has
no
unemployment
relief
money
and
will
not
have
any
until
a
bylaw
authorizing
it
has
been
passed
by
the
j
Dor,
aunng

The
minister
could
give
no

answer
but
promised
that
he
would
submit
the
views
that
had
been
presented
to
him
to
the

quarters
in

Incidentally,
Hon.

stated
here
yesterday,
after

that
