What Mr. King Said Now that Prince Rupert is fighting for recognition and assistance for development of the port and tributary railway along the lines of its original conception, it is appropriate to recall what Prime Minister W. L. Mackenzie King had to say and the pledge he made when he spoke in this very city on October 20, 1920. . We may well be bolstered up in the new campaign to have the Canadian National Railway, as a government-owned and operated line put to fuller use, by recalling Mr. King's own words at that time. Excerpts from .the report of his speech are repeated as follows: "Was the G.T.P. policy a wise one?" asked Mr. King. "What was Sir Wilfrid's vision, when the Transcontinental rall-way was being planned and his vision rtrf'thls particular city? I know," said -Mr'.., King. "It was of ships plying from thlsery harbor crossing the Pacific with thef. products of this country, bringing Ijack other commodities here, making hls community one of the greatest marts In the world; Of a railway running through a country as fertile as any In the world, with feeders running north and south, tapping the resources of the .""province, mineral and timber, the great .national wealth; a great community jjiwith ocean wharves, docks, repair yards, rf dry docks, round houses, hotels, railway testations and all the sights and sighs of ; the great world metropolis. "And what have you got today?" .went on Mr. King, "A side line and not ' a main .artery! "The difference between ; the Liberal and' the Conservative parties. "Irrespective of the political groups which grow from time to time specific purposes, there are two great parties in the political world, the one progressive "find democratic, and the other a party of reaction, looking to the big interests and resenting change. The Liberal party had set out to build up the Dominion of Canada, advocated freer markets, naval defence and had built a national highway' tfitH a Pacific terminus. And the Liberal . party Is anxious to keep up the work and to finish and carry through the plan, interrupted ten years ago. It is for you to say whether you ,wLsh .thai,., work to be accomplished or not." ; And, as a matter of (record, Mr. King's chief truest ..uupoinie, explained uiai tne existence of Prince Rupert was the result of the work of the greatest -Canadian that ever lived, Sir Wil- : f rid Laurier.

It was the policy of the Liberal party to see that Laurier's work was finished.

Sees Kenney For Premier Vancouver Political Writer Speculates on Who Will Head Provincial Government After Hart Retires Either Hon. R. c. Carson, minister of mines, or Hon. E. T. Kenney, minister of lands, will be premier of British Columbia in 1950, speculates J. K. Nesbitt, political columnist in the Vancou ver Sun. Mr.. iNesbltt writes as follows: Picking out successors to prime ministers, presidents and premiers is always lots of fun. It's a sign of a democracy. Nobody in a dictatorship would dream of picking out the head man's successor, evnept in a dark basement or a cobwebby attic. If anyone dared write a piece In the newspaper about It he'd, lose his head. For long the people of the U. S. "had themselves a time mostly .a hot time picking out Franklin Roosevetfs successorvManj Am-ertcahs'.got very hofindeedwhen Mr. Roosevelt chose to succeed himself three times always with public endorsatlon. In recent years the wisacres of Great Britain picked Anthonj Eden as Winston Churchill's successor. Well, we all know what happened. The people of Britain picked their own-man to succeed Churchill and It wasn't Eden. In Ottawa it's the same. Every now and then somebody starts a discussion about Mr. King's successor. Anything goes in these talks. A back-bencher In the House of Commons, provided he's a. good Liberal and what Liberal M.P. Isn't? may hear himself suggested as Canada's next prime minister. Picking Successor To Premier Hart In Victoria people who like politics are already picking out jMr. Hart's. successor. Which doesn't mean any disrespect for "Mr. Hart. A', majority of British Columbians are glad he's in the saddle for the next four years, Mr. Hart is a wise man. Come 1949 he will have been premier of B. C. eight years. He will doubtless feel a younger man should take over! Mr, Hart will then 30 to the Senate. He could have gone there In the last year, If he wasn't so sure he wanted to finish the big job he started in 1941. Choosing a party leader lh four years to succeed Mr. Hart isn't going to be easy. What party? the public might well ask. In the 1945 general election there were no Liberals or Conaerya-tlves, except one or two who didn't cut much Ice. There were only Coalitionists. It would seem that In two, three,, four or five years, if Mr. Hart wishes to retire. Liberal and Conservative Associations, as such, won't have much say in picking his successor. There seems to be only one reasonable way of choosing the man that Is at a Coalition nominating convention, where you can't tell Liberals from Conservatives. Let's say Grits and Tories TERRACE MACHINE SHOP AND W. C. Osborne really get together in a Coalition organization. The time comes to pick Mr. Hart's successor. Who Will Come After Maitland? Who will It be? Cuances are he'll be someone in the present cabinet. Mr. Maitland could have the leadership if he wanted it, probably wlli have It for a cou pie of years If Premier Hart goes to the Senate soon. But. like Mr. Hart, he will have had eight strenuous years in office, will consider he ha? earned a rest. That narrows the choice to two young Ernie Carson and young Ed Kenney young, that is. as politicians go. Both ai still in their 50's. Carson once upon a time was a Conservative and Kenney a Liberal. In four years they, as well as the publics will have forgotten exactly the ype of their politics prior to 1941. They will be known only ns-Cbal-ltlonlsts. " "t. Making a long-distance forecast in 1950 it will be Premier Carson or Premier Kenney. It won't be Premier Winch for another decade. The beauty about that, from Mr. Winch's standpoint, is that even In 10 years he'll still be under 50. .with a good 20 years ahead of him, HOLLY THIEVES LONDON TP) Police and forest keeoers patrolled Epping Forest at Christmas for holly thjeves.
