T. D. Pattullo. minister of lands in the British Columbia Government, as expressed here Friday night. Mr. Pattul'o has lately returned from New York \"Show me,\" says Mr. Pattullo jcinietor of lands for this province, in speaking of-the ? \"exodus to the United' States\"' fmm Canada. He has started something that we -sincerely hope he will be able to finish, and when finished\" we;will have some true facts in' regard to this matter. It ia said ' that '1,381,605 people have left this'country for the United States. 'lvlt does': not state during what period'this is; It is also static thariiix' 1921 the end of a ten year period that there were 9574 wore people left for the States than came from the States to Canada. Mr Pattullo after \inveetigation thinks about'' bne'-t'nird of \"this amount would be nearer correct. We have en his way wast. He .said that he had seen some figures submitted by E. J. Garland. M. P. for Bow River, which were to the effect \"that Canada had lo-.-:i through emigration to the Lir'ted States 1,38\"! ,5 65 people. Mr. Pat- tulo said that this was \"absolutely wrong and misleading,\" and arguments' based on such figiures were unsound. More Commji' In. Mr. Pattullo said that fcr the ten years ended 192 0 more settlers had arrived from the United States than bad departed from Canada. .During 19 21, however, there had' been -i flow the other way, but not nearly enough to-make an aggregate loss 1 o Canada of 1,331,665 as Mr. Gar- lond was credited; with sayiing. As the result of his' careful investigations he had arrived at the result that the total -. difference..,', between tnose leaving Canada; for the United States during the ten; y^ars ended 19 21, exceeded by 9 5 7 L those who came from- the United States m the same period. ' Hon. Charles'Stewart, acting minister of immigration, said Mr. Pattullo, had also been guilty of offering \"unreliable figures.' At one time .Mr. Stewart had been 'reported ?:s saying Canada had lost 2,00.0,- 000 people to the United States, said Mr. Pattulo. Makes Own Estimate He had examined the figures and' had .come to the conclusioin that the correct figures were nearer 500,000 than 2,000,000. He said that while examining these figures' he had found the startling fact that 900,000 who had died had been included in tlte total of those who had gone south. Mr. Pattullo said that they experienced the same difficulty in arriving at conclusive figures at Washington than we do here. \"If ypn look up the figures you will find that the increase of population in the United States for the ton-year period ended 1921 was not proportionately as great as the increase in population, in Canada. There is at fhe present moment no doubt that the exodus from Canada is greater than the influx, but this, is only, a temporary condition. What we need now to stop emigration is immigration.\" Tf the country would opc-m its gates wide and allow large numbers of immigrants, Mr. Pattullo was confident that the result would be an immediate boom in Canada Arising out of the general complaint that living conditions for teach ?rs in rural communities are' not, ss they should be. a resolution was passed recommending all members of the federation to make definite enquiries about such conditions before accepting service in such districts'. It was further decided that a grant of f;> 10 00 be sent to the Canadian Teachers' Federation to be applied to a fund for aiding teachers who had suffered losses through difficulties encountered with school l.oards and special \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD reference was 'made to some districts of Manitoba and to New Westminster. raiting When you order printing you buy amiething more than paper and ink.

Fraser, sung with great success at the-celebration of the eighteenth, birhday of Rotary staged at the Masonic Temple: Old King Tut was a jolly old-nut And a jolly old nut was he He filled his hut with his best goods, but fie was dead as a mummy could be. ' His steamer trunk was beside his bunk And some ancient grub had he, But his grub was punk, and his pile of junk Was labelled C. O. D. Now old Tut Tank though a man of rank Neither ate nor drank did he He paddled no boat, and he played no note, For 3000 years you see. So he didn't get up take on sup From the cup that held his gin, And he lay quite still against his will Till the Rotary boys broke in. He bated no eye, and he heaved no j sigh - . When Carter cried \"It's me,\" But he said quite plain \"If I live again I'd join' your ROTAR Y.\" \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD Sf , 1 \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD \u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD'\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD'. <.ii^m:.

Melt no said that since being ehoueii temporary leader oi' the Provincial Party he has been made the victim of a. campaign of innuendo and slander. Hence his decision to give a personal account of himself. With both of the two old Iin<' parties, zeal for victory is I'or the spoils of victory. Public confidence has become so undermined that one despairs'of honest government. The cause must be removed in administration. British Columbia is suffering from the evils of machine polities' (Applause). The patronage < vil and the spoils system have brought about a standard of morality so luw that to place the party before the province is considered justifiable.

G. E. railway's costing $10,000 per day, although Mr. Oliver puts the cost at $1,605.- 71. He had had \"two reputable chartered accountants\" figure it out, and to be exact they place the cost at $9,970.30. Probably the Premier had overlooked depreciation, expecting the railway to last forever, but most British Columbians hope it. won't (Laughter). Denying that one cent of Provincial Party funds has come from the Canadian Pacific Railway, directly j or indirectly, Gen. McRae challenged Mr. Oliver to bo as frank ahoui : Liberal party funds, . or for Urnl'i matter of it, the Conservative party J funds, an investigation into which had been stopped by Mr. Oliver be- i cause there is too good an understanding. The Premier has lately been stumping the country. a,t public expense/to convert British Columbians to freight rate reductions', a direction in which they are of course in iin need of conversion.

Returning !ro Canada in 190-L he brought ?50,000 which he. proceeded to'invest in the development or Western Canada. The Saskatch- , owan Valley Land Company, in ! v.h:ch. he was interested, bought a0,- [ t'00 acres from the government un- j der an agreement to bring in six tear. | bona fire settlers to every township. _ Incidentally'this was the only colou- ; iza;ion scheme ever entered that was successfully completed, he said. The company eventually handled five and a half million acres, .settled 50,000 families, and made.a profit of about nine millions in seven years. . ; Regarding his connection with McKenzie & Mann, he'had simply done business 'with them and earned any money he got. As a matter of fact, M. A. Macdohald' was the only man he knew who ever got any easy n-.oncy out of that outfit (laughter). Con. McRae said-he is being blamed for the Port Mann affair, but as a matter of fact he opposed the sa.;e as premature, took no part in it, broke with his' firm in Winnipeg' and all he got out of it was the-prr- llcrve of bearing one-third of the loss sustained by the firm. As for l:^ Canadian Collerics (Dunsmuir) Ltd. ho held only a one per cent, interest, was for a time a nonSinal director, disagreed with the policy and quit. Gen. McRae gave an interesting resume of the affairs of the Canadian Western Lumber Company, -:.ie big Fraser Mills concern, and sub- nibsidiary companies. Tn his experience it takes ten years to get results out of an industrial proposition on a large scale. The war caught this one and to get an extension of time in interest payments from tlie debenture holders, ho, had been compelled to give them one half the common stock. But it is now in a favorable position, and has the distinction of le!,i\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD'.- the only lumbering industry in British Columbia that borrowed money in England and lived to toil the tale. This plant in the course cf its existence has expended about nineteen millions in wages and fit- teen millions in supplies. His inter-' est in it represents the invostmenr. of two millioins in cash, and he has yet to get a dollar of returns. There is, he said, a silly rumor ini Vancouver that he made a lot of money when he 'was' in charge of thc business of-buying army re-mounts m Western Canada. What he had done, as a matter of fact, was lo prevent a lot of grafting by politicians and as a result he has been pur, sued by their bitter hatred ever since. When he was appointed he found himself saddled with nine purchasing committees appointed ,m the recommendation 'of various political machines. Si:-: of these co-n- mittees he dismissed by wire with' l ten day, and it was to the credit of the Ottawa government that this' action had never been questioned. In conclusion Gen. McRae proposed the formation of a bureau of information to dig into the record cf every man in public life, on the lines of an organization that ,'ias been doing this successfully in New York for a number of years. As such an organization would 'need funds,, he offered to subscribe, with fou:' other citizens, his share of $5,000 per year for five years.

He asserted that on severing his connection with that projpict. he had been accorded an explicit vote of confidence, and he challanged Isir Oliver to go to Ladner and attempt to secure a.similar expression of'confidence there.
