Agriculture Very Important
And Deserves Sunny Spot

One thing Premier Bennett can do

without stepping on any toes, the election

* results being ‘what they were, is to restore
the department of agriculture to some-
thing more ‘than its present grab bag and
bob tail status.

Since the present minister of mines
was removed from the agriculture port-
folio, agriculture has seen a vast and ‘won-
derful series of ministers parade. by, some
of whom had the post for a few days and
others for too long. When Mr. Kiernan
finally got his milk marketing act set up,
agriculture suddenly became unimportant
to the point where it almost disappeared
from public view, much less thought.

Surely agriculture is more important
than the indifferent treatment it has been

given by this government in recent years

~ Surely the milk producers and ber-
ry growers and poultrymen of the valley
deserve something better than this; surely
the grain growers of the Peace, the ran-

ers of the Okanagan deserve a strong

A new left wing party is to come into
being in Canada at the end of the month.
As yet unnamed, it will be a merger of

A revivified right wing Social Credit
party has already elected a new national
president (Dr. R. N. Thompson) at a two-
day meeting in Ottawa at the end of July.
With strong assistance promised from the

It’s not going to be easy getting
immigration free flowing again, argues the
- Regina Leader-Post. “But once this has
been achieved, the hope is that this and
succeeding governments will profit from
the experience by mustering the requisite
courage to withstand’ pressure to reduce
immigration to Canada the next time -a
temporary economic squall blows up.”

' Civil Service
It is quite likely that some classes of
the civil service are underpaid and should
have raises, says the Brooks (Alta.) Bullet-
in. “But a general increase ‘across the
board’ is unjustifiable. There have been
seven increases in the past eight years. A

What the right wing- party offers was

The great struggle, said Dr. Thomp-
son in his acceptance speech, is between

in fact, survival and extinction. :

Both in its tone and content Dr.
Thompson’s speech was very close to that
of Mr. Nixon and his colleagues at Chicago.
