WHAT
THE
"SPECIAL
POWERS
ACT"
MEANS
A
great
many
people
have
been
speculating
as
to
what
the
Special
Powers
Act,
now
before
the
Legislature,
means.
Norman
Senior,
writing
in
the
Vancouver
Sun,
tries
to
explain.
He
puts
it
something
like
this.
The
province,
according
to
the
budget,
will
run
behind
six
million
dollars
this
year.
Other
millions
are
needed
to
put
the
idle
men
to
work.
Premier
Pattullo
believes
that
an
idle
and
destitute
people
can
never
pay
the
debt.
A
government
cannot
economize
the
province
into
prosperity.
The
national
credit
must
be
drawn
upon
and
federal
parliament
is
the
only
power
that
can
do
it.
An
appeal
has
aready
been
made
to
Premier
Bennett
but
no
answer
has
so
far
been
received.
The
provincial
-government
wants
to
be
in
a
position
to
deal
with
the
Dommibri
in
regard
to
the
present
situation.
This
year
the
spm
of
seven
million
dollars
has
to
be
paid
in
interest
on
outstanding
provincial
bonds.
This
seven
million
is
needed
to
provide
work
and
wages
for
the
unemployed
if
the
federal
government
refuses
to
do
it.
That
would
mean
repudiation
of
financial
obligations
but
it
would
be
a
question
then
which
is
the
most
important
in-terestpayment
or
the
welfare
of
the
people.
Pattullo
believes
the
latter.
When
the
Premier
is
given
a
free
hand
by
the
Legislature
he
will
be
in
a
position
to
say
to
the
Dominion
government:
"You
put
our
people
to
work
or
advance
us
the
money
to
do
it,
otherwise
we
shall
use
the
money
we
have
to
put
them
to
work
and
defer
the
interest
payments."
Here
is
the
way
Senior
puts
it:
"If
Ottawa
fails
to
come
through
with
a
reasonably
stimulating
works
program
and
with
sufficient
credit
to
enable
British
Columbia
to
get
by
for
the
next
twelve
months
the
moment
of
the
big
'show-down'
will
have
come.
"The
province
.will
have
to
see
what
it
can
do
on
its
own
account.
Quite
clearly
its
only
recourse
is
to
refuse
to
meet
the
intereakon
the
debt
and
to
use
the
money,
as
far
as
it
will
go,
to
carry
on
the
ordinary
functions
of
government,
while
setting-up
an
'internal
economy
for
British
Columbia
on
Jines
that
will
be,
to
say
the
least,
highly
experimen-
Under
the
law
as
it
is
today
the
claims
of
the
bondholders
come
ahead
of
the
claims
of
the
unemployed.,
The
passage
of
the
Special
Powers
Act
would
put
these
claims
on
an
equality.
So
far
no
province
has
ever
defaulted
on
Its
interest
payments
and
there
has
been
a
general
understanding
that
It
would
not
be
allowed
by
the
federal
government.
Possibly
a
test
may
be
made
in
the
very
near
future.

In

PLANTS
ARE
GROWING
Every
time
I
look
at
my
garden
I
notice
that
the
perennials
have
grown
since
the
previous
time,
that
weeds
are
encroaching
or
that
'
something
new
is
showing
above
ground.
The
winter
was
very
hard
on
the
pansles.
Neatly
half
of
them
are
gone
entirely
and
others
are
cut
back
so
hard
that
they
can
scarcely
recover.
However,
there
are
hundreds
of
little
seedlings
coming
up
among
the
old
roots
and
If
they
are
allowed
to
grow
undisturbed
there
should
be
plenty
of
yorng
plants
blooming
by
about
midsummer.
Roses
should
be
pruned
soon.
Some
people
have
already
done
this
but
nothing
is
lost
by
a
little
delay
in
pruning
except
that
the
first
blooms
may
be
a
few
days
later
if
the
bushes
are
cut
back
hard.
Hard
pruning
Is
advised
for
bedding
roses
but
the
climbers
should
not
be
cut
back
much.

has
re-reived
Inquiries
from
London,
Eng-jnd
regarding
gold
possibilities
on
the
Queen

Islands.
It
is
generally
felt
on
the
Islands
hat
the
present
high
prices
chaig-ed
for
passengers
and
freight
to
the
I
Islands
is
only
greatly
retaring
the
progress
of
the
Islands.
In
some
ase
It
is
said
that
It
costs
more
to
et
lumber
from
Vancouver
than
the
lumber
is
worth.
Also
It
costs
nearly
as
much
to
ship
lumber
from
.lussett
as
it
does
from
Vancouver.
The
Queen
Charlotte
Islands
have
been
experiencing
some
very
warm
weather.
