The

had
been
the
best
British
Columbia
had
ever
had
but
It
was
only
because
of
"the
growing
strength
and
pressure
of
the
C.CF.
The
speaker
referred
to
the
tremendous
barrage
which
was
to
be
noted
throughout
Canada
In
the
endeavour
to
stay
the
rising
tide
of
the

The

I
hope
it
will
not
Just
wriggle
but
a
real
turn."
However,
warned
Mr.
Gargarve,
"Don't
be
too
sure
that,
Just
because
you
put
the
C.CF.
In
power,
everything
will
be
o.k."
The

always
keep

put
in

said
