22:-Debate
continued
in
the
Legislature
yesterday
on
the
Special
Powers
Act
and
a
vote
is
expected
today
with
every
prospect
that
it
will
be
passed
with
a
large
majority.
With
the
probable
exception
of
G.
G.
McGeer,
there
will
probably
be
a
solid
Liberal
vote
for
the
measure.
'The
time
has
come
to
decide
that
vital
question
as
to
whether
the
sanctity
of

rights
Is
greater
than
the
sanctity
of
human

and
the
right

declared
Hon.
Gordon
Sloan,
Attorney
Oeneral,
In
defending
the
Special

Act
yesterday.
"1
have

a

about

I
heard
not
a

when
the
wage
contract
with

was
broken
at
Ottawa
and
cuts
made.
Yet
we
have
the
sanctity
of
the
contract
of

on
money.
Can
we
In

pass
on
all
