The Pacific Great Eastern survey. Mr. Pattullo said, was unnecessary. The sum of $50,000 had been spent to secure the Evans report on marketing which contained nothing the people did not know already. He cried out at the annual expenditures which, he said, would reach $3Q,0Qp0Q for last year. Mr. Pattullo declared that 'government should reveal at once its policy on the Pacific Great Eastern Railway and table reports of surveys taken on the resources of the area served. The Alaska highway plan, the I Liberal leader said, was a stall de- lnfd to attention from the i dfaw MacMillan Plane, Having Finished inaction of the government In other respects. The Watt investigation had prov- ; ed the right of the opposition when It fought for Justice for tne iormer Prince Rupert government agent in the face of government denials of any Injustices which had now been retracted. The fuel oil tax, voted last session and worth $550,000. had not been collected and the House would want to know why, Mr. Pattullo said. The government, Uie Liberal leader charged, was fully respons ible for the deplorable state of finances In the province and the removal of the former finance minister had not absolved It from blame.
