BREAD, CAKES and PASTRIES At the annual meeting of the District Conservative Associa- tion held in North Vancouver on Thursday, March 29th, the fol- lowing officers were elected for the ensuing year: President--D. Loughnan. Vice-Presidents--EV. B. Small, F. N. Barker. Seer tary--E. i~IcLeod, Treasurer--H. Lees. Executive Board--J. Loutet, J. Payne, N. Botham, J. B. Ley- land, T. C. Crawley, Nrs W. N. Keene. Auditors--J. H. Young, R. T. Johnson. Alr. R. L. Maitland delivered a vigorous address predicting an election in Jure or September and declared that though nearly half of the population of British Columbia resided in Greater Vancouver and vicinity, the Gov- ernment had not seen fit to give representation to the City of Vancouver. Though there should be eight members of the Cabinet, only five were in charge of the sev- eral departments and conse- quently the work of these de- partments was not being as thoroughly attended to as would be the case if there were eight Cabinet Alinisters. The speaker declared that ow- ing to absentee ballots, several seats were unduly held by Gov- ernment members, and conse- quently the Government did not represent the wishes of the people. In 1916, previous to the Liber- al Government taking office, $6,- 000,000 was collected in taxation and the Liberals pledged them- selves to a reduction. However, the amount of taxes in 1928 tot- al $21,000,000, this being the highest per capita tax of any Province in the Dominion. The land settlement scheme, costing $6,000,000, was, said Mr. )Iaitland, a disastrous failure, there being thousands of acres lying idle. The Sumas reclam- ation scheme has been estimated by Government Engineers to cost $ 1,800,000, but the cost to date is $4,000,000, Speaking of the Cariboo Road Mr. Maitland said, "Contracts were let without tenders, and even low bids were withdrawn to enable higher bidders to get the work. On one stretch of 21 miles, the Government Engin- eers estimated the cost at $800 000, whereas the actual cost was $982,000. The original contract- ors sublet their contracts for half and one quarter the amount estimated." Under the Conservative regime arrangements had been made with Foley, Welch 4 Co., to com- plete the P. G. E. to the Grand Trunk for $6,000,000 and ar- rangements had been made with the Grand Trunk whereby all freight and passenger service would be forwarded to Vancou- ver by the P. G. E. Since the Liberals came in to power in 1916, $20,000,000 had been spent on the P. G. E. and the line has not been constructed from Squamish to Whytecliff or from Quesnel to Prince George.

Dean Brock of the University of British Columbia in an ad- dress before the Karnloops Can- adian Club predicted that there ~vould be a population in the Do- minion of 200,000,000 and a stu- pendous growth in industry and foreign trade never before seen in the history of the world. Dean Brock based his assumptions on definite analysis of existing con- ditions in Europe, in relation to temperature, rainfall, coal, re- sources and elevation. From these indefinite ratios could b. established the potential popula- tion and Canada's could be esti- mated conservatively as above. This took no heed of the vast northern empire. A population of 30,000,000 was forecast by the dean for south- ern British Columbia within a generation or two. Foreign Trade Better In the last one hundred years the population of the world has increased two and one-half times and Europe was near the satura- tion point. Countries having similar meteorological conditions and still open to emigration were Canada, South America, South Africa and Australia. Of these Canada had the greatest advant- ages, being nearest to Europe, a location in the northern hemi- sphere and possessing ample re- sources. Canada's growth, he continued will far surpass even the mete- oric rise of the United States, which was largely self-contain- ed. Canada, with a population of 9,000,000, had a foreign trade which exceeded that of the Unit- ed States when the latter had a population of 76,000,000. In an- swer to the cries to curb the ex- port of raw materials, the dean showed that 40 per cent. of Do- minion exports were manufac- tured as compared with only 47 per cent. of United States ex- ports. United States foreign trade was $77 per capita and Canada's $236. An interesting meeting of the Woman's Association was held in the Church Hall last Tuesday afternoon. There was a large attendance and an Easter Mes- sage was given by the President. Plans were made for the coming months. To Preserve Beefsteak Mix together equal parts of brown sugar and salt, one fifth as much black pepper and one fifth as much saltpetre. Have your steaks cut the usual thick- noss. Sprinkle some of the mix- ture on the bottom of a stone jar put in a layer of beefsteak using two tablespoonsful of the mix- ture to every pound of beefsteak fill your jar (or as much as you care to try) in this manner, plac~ a plate with a heavy weight on top, cover jar tightly and use as desired. Can be used next day or will keep for some time. Members of the Orange Lodg- es of West Vancouver and North Vancouver attended the United Church last Sunday evening. Mr. Ivor Thomas sang "There Is No Death." The minister preached on "Our Treasure." The minister will take charge of the 5lidweek service on Wed- nesday evening at 8 o'lock. Mr. Mayhew who has taken charge of it for the last few months is leaving for his home at White- wood, Sask. During the time Mr. Nayhew has been here, he has taken a large part in the work of the United Church and his departure will be greatly felt. Mr. and Mrs. Mayhew hope to return in the fall.
