Dr.
John
Duncan
MacLean,
former
Premier
of
British
Columbia,
who
died

in

mark

affairs,
although
it
being
twenty
years
since
he
was
Premier
and
then
only
for
a
year
between
two
such
personalities
as
John
Oliver
before
him
and
Dr.
S.
F.
Tolmie
after
him,
he
may
have
been
to
some
extent
forgotten.
He
had
served
for
many
years
as
chairman
of
the
Federal
Farm
Board
at
Ottawa,
quietly
but
effectively
and
had
become
more
or
less
detached
from
his
native
province.
A
poor
farm
boy,
Dr.
MacLean
had
to
make
his
way
through
life
from
the
very
start.
Even
to
obtain
his
medical
degree,
years
were
required
but
he
had
the
ambition
and
resolution
to
see
him
through.
His
personality
was
such
that
he
made
friends,
commanded
esteem
and
respect
and
Greenwood,
then
a
flourishing
mining
town
where
he
located,
gave
him
his
start
in
public
life.
He
served
as
alderman
and
mayor
there
and
was
writ
as
Member
of
the
Legislative
Assembly.
Soon
he
was
recognized
as
of
cabinet
timber
and
Mr.
Oliver
nanud
him
as
Minister
of
Education
and
Provincial
Secretary.
Dr.
MacLean
wentquietly
to
work
to
master
the
details
of
his
departments,
and
having
done
so,
gradually
revolutionized
them.
He
did
not
do
things
in
a
spectacular
manner,
but
gradually
.and
without
fuss
accomplished
a
great
deal.
He
took
over
the
privately
operated
tubercular
sanitorium
at
Tranquille
for
the
government;
established
a
home
for
incurables
at
Marpole,
and
remodelled
arid
reorganized
the
boys'
industrial
school
and
mental
hospitals.
The
standard
of
teaching
was
raised
in
the
province
and
many
important
changes
were
inaugurated
in
the
educational
system,
including
technical
schools.
He
set
to
work
to
permanently
house
the
University
of
British
Columbia,
and
this
was
accomplished.
In
addition
to
his
other
departments
he
was
given
the
portfolio
of
railways-
and
this

which
has
been
going
on
in
such
newspapers
as

Sun
and
Province
and
the
Prince
Ptupert
Daily
News
in
favor
of
the
establishment
of
a
Canadian
coastguard
service
on
the
Pacific
Coast
receives
vigorous
support,
supplemented
by
some
new
idea,f
rom
one
of
the
coast's
best
known
veteran
master
mariners
in
the
person
of
Capt.
John
Muir,
for
years
skipper
of
Union
Steamship
Co.
vessels
and
more
recently
marine
superintendent
for
that
company.
Vessels
of
the
fisheries
patrol,
lighthouse
and
hydrographic
services
might
be
used
as
the
nucleus
of
a
-Coastguard
to
give
possible
succor
to
crews
of
distressed
vessels
in
their
vicinity,
Capt.
Muir
suggests.
Powerful
tugboats
which
operate
on
the
coast
could
be
called
upon
to
tow
.distressed
vessels
in
case
of
emergency.
('apt.
Muir
adds:
"No
more
ef
ficient
or
capable
hands
could
be
found
anywhere
for
Coastguard
duties
than
the
sturdy,
fearless
lads
who
earn
.their
living
on
British
Columbia
halibut
vessels,
fish
packers,
trollers,
seiners
and
gillnetters.
Such
vessels
should,
and
could,
'be
-equipped
with
modern
life-saving
equipment
approved
for
mobile
coastguard
stations
such
.as
those
.established
on
the
coasts
of
United
States
and
Great
Britain."
Properly
organized,
and
equipped,
"it
would
be
almost
certain
that
one
of
our
Coastguard,
on
'receiving
the
international
SOS
appeal
direct
from
any
distressed
vessels
or.
relayed
from
other
ships
or
land
stations,
would
be
on
her
way
to
render
assistance
in
a
very
short
space
of
time."
Of
course,
Capt.
Muir
suggests,
a
Canadian
Coastguard
cutter,
with
proper
and
full
equipment
and
trained
crew,
would
be
of
very
useful
service.
Another
suggestion
of
-Capt.
Muir's
is
the
establishment
of
helicopter
stations
at
Coal
Harbor,
Quatsino
Sound
and
Sandspit.
"It
is
to
be
hoped,"
concludes
the
captain
"that,
in
spite
of
federal
objections,
the
editorials
will
result
in
some
kind
of
a
Canadian
Coastguard
being
formed
soon."
