Keep Alex Macdonald as Industrial Minister

Premier Barrett has already broken a
number of campaign promises since assum-
ing power—and we hope he breaks an-
other one.

Commented Mr. Barrett in announcing
he would keep the finance portfolio per-
manently after previously saying he would
give it up next spring: “I'm learning, I'm
learning.”

Since he’s already bent his promise
not to have any dual portfolios in his cabin-
et by keeping finance himself, we hope
he'll now decide to keep Attorney-General
Alex Macdonald on as minister of industrial

| trade and

The views of our Victoria correspon-
dent of a few issues ago aside (Lloyd Mac-
key said one of the government's New
Year's resolutions should be the early ap-
pointment of a full time industrial develop-
ment minister), we believe Mr.

Less than a month after he received the
report, Mr, Macdonald ordered the plimsol
line placed on all beer glasses used in the
provincel)

On the debit side of the ledger in his
handling of the industrial development and
trade department since last September, it
was Mr. Macdonald who was
for the Barrett government's decision to
close down the B.C. House facilities in San
Francisco and Los Angeles. Besides offer-
ing valuable services to B.C, manufacturers,
the offices also provided information on
market and development possibilities in
British Columbia to U.S. companies inter-
ested in this province. As well, the offices
were used by representatives of the travel
industry department to promote tourism in
this province and provided British Colum-
bians visiting California with places to go
for assi It was a gade step, and

fully capable of carrying the two respon-
sibilities of attorney-general and industry
minister. But what is more important, we
believe he is the only member of Mr. Bar-
rett’s legislative group whose personal re-
putation ranks extremely high with those
who represent the huge pools of foreign
investment capital so important to this pro-
vince.

This isn't to suggest that Mr. Macdon-
ald is nothing more than a smali-c conser-
vative or a staunch maintainer of the status-
quo. Quite the contrary. While he’s no.de-
dicated reactionary, neither is he a wild-
eyed revolutionist. He is—if there is such
a thing—a practical, pragmatic socialist.

(He's also pretty politically astute, as
witness his decision as attorney-general
to restore the plimsol line on beer glasses.
Shortly after taking office he ordered an
investigation to see if short measures were
being served in beer parlors. The investi-
gation was carried out and the report was
made: no problem worth worrying about.

one we're sure will be regretted. (In fact,
the nearly two out of every 10 workmen
now employed in British Columbia must
wonder about its merits at a time when the
need for further encouragement of invest-
ment capital is all too painfully apparent
in the unemployment statistics.)
Mr, Macdonald has been ‘given the
ibility of drafti creat-
ing a fund ‘which will provide incentives
for new industries, As a federally-designat-
ed slow-growth region, we in the Kooten-
ays are vitally interested in any steps the
provincial government can take to ,assist
this region to achieve a degree of second-
ary industrial growth more consistent with

. that found in most other parts of our pro-

vinee.

At this stage of our provincial growth,
Mr. Macdonald could be the greatest min-
ister of industrial development, trade and
commerce British Columbia will ever have.
We hope Premier Barrett will continue fo
give him that opportunity.

Can You Define What Happiness Really Is?

A West Coast radio fr-
iend of mine can always
spark een on his “Op.

show by posing
the question: “What is hap-
piness?” Between callers
who cite their “happiness”

+ a8 a rum-and-coke on a sn-

owy night or escaping from
a nagging wife, it suddenly
struck me that the average

‘individual is unable to de-

fine or even recognize hap-
piness outside of a few ma-
terialistic pleasures.

The most honest will
admit to a vague sense of
discontent, which, © while
having no specific "root : cau-

completeness, — of perhaps
having been cheated of act-
ually capturing the golden
ring'on the merry-go-round.

On the other hand, to

study what some of the
world's greatest human _be-
ings have said about hap-
piness is to discover how
yery intangible happiness is.
Henry Van Dyke said:
“The great lesson to be
learned is that happiness is
within us. No passing am-
usement, no companionship,
no Tateral possession can
permanently satisfy. We
must hoard up ‘our own str-

We must make or mar our
oun tranquility. We cannot

find happiness until we for-
get to seek for it. We can-
not find peace until we en-
ter the path of self-sacrific-
ing usefulness.”

But lest we lose oursel-
ves in philosophy, ponder
these gems of well being.
Such as waking up for work
—only to discover that it is
Sunday! Or finding a $10
bill you hid on yourself last

ayday!

How about arriving
home from work to discover
your favorite food on the

stove?..Or having. your, hus:

Jong enough to analyse
them—up to and including
that sense of relief when
walking out of dentists of-
fice after a long session of
fillings! Happiness?
fo, money can’t buy it.
Certainly when it is a reac-
tion to and a relief from
that which we were not an-
ticipating with pleasure!
On the other hand, we
