It

It

request
for
these
powers,
the
Premier
explained,
is
part
of
its
program
for
carrying
out
its
"work
and

policy
concerning
which
the
Prime
Minister
declared:
"We
propose
to
maintain
the
integrity
of
our
institutions,
sec
that
none
of
our
people
arc
allowed
to
suffer
for
want
of
proper
sustenance
and
leave
no
excuse
for
sinister
influences
to
sow
discord
in
the
minds
of
the
people,
particularly
having
regard
to
the
inculcation
in
the
minds
of
the
youth
of
our
country
ideas
that
are
subversive
of
constitutional
government
and
individual
liberty
and
freedom."
Tjic
Premier
said
that
the
recent
Ottawa
conference
had
agreed
"that
a
works
program
and
co-operation
with
industry
were
essential
to
reduce
the
number
now
on
relief."
For
some
time
the
province
had
been
dependent
upon
advances
from
the
Dominion
government
to
take
care
of
Unemployment.
"We
do
not
know
what
the
ultimate
policy
of
the
Dominion
government
may
be
and
we
must
fortify
our-H'lves
against
all
contingencies."
