Hon.
T.
D.
Pattullo,
Premier
of
British
Columbia
and
member
for
this
district
in
the
Legislature,
has
changed
since
we
all
knew
him
as
"T
P."
and
this
change
worries
some
of
the
people
who
jised
to
know
him
well
Tjie
change
is
one
brought
about
by
circumstances
over
which
he
fias
no
control.
Formerly
he
had
plenty
of
time.
He
could
come
to
Prince
Rupert
and
spend
a
few
days
or
a
week,
meet
everybody
and
ask
about
tfreir
families,
shake
hands
with
the
old
timers
and
discuss
local
problems.
Today
the
Premier
is
such
a
busy
man
hat
it
is
impossible
for
him
to
spend
much
time
in
Prince
Rupert
or
in
any
other
part
of
the
riding.
All
he
can
do
is
drop
in
for
an
hour
or
two,
meet
a
few
people
and
move
on.
He
has
little
time
for
personal
matters
and
absolutely
no
time
for
petty
politics.
That
is
the
price
he
has
to
pay
for
being
head
of
the
government.
Over
two
years
ago
when
Mr.
Pattullo
went
to
Victoria,
he
took
.over
a
job
which,
few
men
would
have
had
courage
to
face.
Salaries
of
employees
of
the
government
were
unpaid,
there
was
no
money
in
the
treasury
and
the
banks
absolutely
refused
to
lend
any
more
or
to
honor
government
checks.
It
was
a
serious
situation.
While
he
knew
it
was
bad,
he
did
not
realize
just
how
bad
things
were
until
he
took
.over
the
reins
of
government.
Evidently,
the
banks
had
confidence
in
him
for
they
at
once
honored
all
checks
and
under
the
splendid
management
of
Finance
Minister
John
Hart,
the
financial
position
has
so
far
re
covered
that
the
prpvince
is
now
paying
its
way
and
at
last
is
able
to
put
most
of
the
unemployed
jto
work.
Thje
Premier
fc.as
had
a
difficult
time
because
while
he
was
attacked
on
all
sides
for
inactivity,
he
was
not
in
position
to
reply
because
negotiations
were
in
progress
with
the
federal
government,
the
success
of
which
might
be
endangered
by
public
discussion.
Even
after
the
change
of
government
at
.Ottawa,
it
was
not
all
smooth
sailing.
The
eastern
viewpoint
was
different
from
the
west.
However,
one
very
important
point
was
won
in
securing
the
aid
gf
the
federal
government
jn
expending
considerable
sums
of
money
on
highway
construction
and
improvement.
Then
came
the
question
of
public
works
and
again
there
was
a
gain
for
the
province
and
for
Prince
Rupert
in
particular.
The
Premier
was
able
to
co-operate
with
Olof
Hanson
to
such
an
extent
that
a
tentative
arrangement
was
made
for
the
transfer
gf
property
on
which
to
erect
the
proposed
new
federal
block.
Mr.
Pattullo
has
changed
in
that
he
is
unable
to
make
those
local
.contacts
which
he
formerly
did
but
he
is
nowj
able
to
speak
with
authority
and
do
things
for
the
riding)
and
the
province
which
formerly
he
could
not
do.
He
is
in.
good
health
only
because
he
has
cut
off
all
unnecessary'
wo.rk,
rejegating
this
to
others.
He
is
cheerful
and
conf
i-;
dent
as
ever,
quite
sure
.gf
his
ground
in
every
step
he
takes.
,
i
To
some
pf
u
iteelms
rather
sad
that
we
have
l.ost
the
old
"T.
D."
who
has
represented
the
rjding
for
twenty
years
but,
on
the
other
hand,
we
have
gained
a
Premier
who
;s,
d.oing
spjendid
work
jn
the
rehabilitation
of
a
province
which
a
fewyears.ago
was
bankrupt.
We
have
been
able
to
give
to
the

None

the
last

of
1935
but
coal
shows
a
yolume
increase
and
structural
materials,
miscellaneous
metals,
minerals
and
materials
show
value
increases.
The
explanation
is
to
be
found
in
the
estimates
for
the
first
six
months
of
each
year
which
are
prepared
on
partial
returns
an.d
therefore
prob
ably
are
somewhat
lower
than
would
be
an
estimate
based
on
full
returns.
The
marked
increase
in
the
va
lue
of
lead
and
zinc
production
is
due
to
the
higher
average
price
for
these
metals.
Similarly,
the
heavy
loss
in
the
value
of
silver
produc
tion
Is
due
to
a
much
lower
average
price
for
the
first
six
months
of
1936
as
compared
with
the
first
six
months
of
1935

It
was
estimated
at
the
first
of
the
year
that
the
value
of
the
min
ing
industry
for
1936
would
be
about
the
same
as
in
1935.
This
seems
to
be
borne
out
by
the
esti
mated
value
for
the
first
six
months.
Gold
Placer
gold
shows
a
value
increase
of
50.7
compared
with
the
same
period
last
year.
Placer
production
is
much
heavier
in
the
last
six
months
than
in
the
first
six
months
of
the
year
and
this
year's
production,
estimated
on
a
comparative
basis
with
last
year's
production,
will
likely
be
the
greatest
volume
produced
in
the
last
twenty
years
and,
due
to
the
increased
price
of
gold,
will
probably
have
the
greatest
value
production
In
the
last
35
years.
Lode
gold
shows
an
Increase
of
16.7
over
the
estimate
for
the
corresponding
period
of
last
year,
but
shows
a
decrease
compared
with
the
last
six
months
of
1935.
Provided
no
unforeseen
circumstances
arise,
It
is
anticipated
that
production
for
the
last
six
months
of
this
year
will
show
an
increase
over
the
first
six
months
and
therefore
production
for
the
year
should
be
substantially
greater
than
for
1935.
Silver
Silver
shows
a
slight
volume
increase
and
the
year's
production
wlU
likely
exceed
that
of
last
year.
The
average
price,
however,
is
a-iut
20
cents
less
than
for
the
corresponding
peripd
In
1935
and
the

The

months'
cf
1935
was
slightly
greater
than
the
average
price
for
the

Therefore,
the
increased
value
production
for
the
first
six
months
of
J936
pvej
the
same
period
of
last
year,
will
like

average

of

is
slightly
greater
than

last

Therefore
the
value
increase
for
1936
should
be
somewhat
greater
than
the
increase
for
the
first
six

Coal,
which
(showed
a
heavy
decrease
in
1935
due
to
the
.cVosing
down
of
the
Cabin
Collieries,
shows
for
the
first
six
months
of
this
year
Increased
production
in
every
coal
mining
district
of
the
province
over
the
corresponding
period
for
last
year.
The
value
in
crease
amounts
to
12.1
which
would
indicate
the
coal
production
for
1936
as
greater
or
slighUy
greater
than
In
1934.
Structural
Materials
i
It
has
been
anticipated
for
some
time
that
structural
materials,
which
have
been
at
a
very
low
ebb,
would
begin
to
show
a
marked
re
covery.
The
estimated
increase
of
34
for
the
first
six
months
of
this
year,
compared
to
the
same
period
'ast
year.
Is
very
gratifying.
Although
the
actual
value
increase
does
not
compare
with
that
for
coal
or
the
metals,
.
it
is
a
healthy
indi-
caUon
of
general
recovery
in
business.

and

To

the

it

the
next
six
months
of
1936

not
equal
that
of

there
should
be
an
increase

sufficient
to
bring
the
gross
