Bread - Tea Breads Butter Horns Conee Rolls CURRENT EVENTS CLUBPROTEST DELAY ON NARROWS BRIDGE% Continued delay in commenc- ing repairs to the Second Nar- rows Bridge was criticized in a resolution presented to the City Council Monday afternoon by M Aid. H. J. De Graves, urging-'hat federal authorities be ay- proached on the subject. The alderman declares that delay is causing serious loss to business in both the city and the North Shore and is causing much irritation, especially in view of recent explicit assur- ances from Ottawa that the re- pair would be started st the earliest possible moment. The alderman asked that the resolution be sent to the Prime Minister and the minister of marine, with members of the Do- minion cabinet. He also asked that copies go to Hon. H. H. Stevens, federal members of Vancouver and North Vancou- ver and to members of the Har- bord Commission. The regular meeting of the Current Events Club was held on Wednesday, February 15th, at the home of Mrs. Small, Ful- ton Avenue. Mrs. J. Stuart Jamieson lectured on the topic "Is Democracy Doomed?" The speaker mentioned vgri- ous countries which seemed to have turned their backs on Dem- ocracy, and the trends toward undemocstic rule nearer home. She then examined the question "Is the socalled Democracy we have had in the psst a real dem- ocracy?" In the realm of civics we had been democratic; but in the realm of economics, and par- ticularly in financ, we have never been democstic, but have had an autocracy, and still have it. This, the speaker contended, was largely at the basis of the world'0 present trouble; snd political democracy was not sufFicient to mend it. When economic and financial democ- racy was added to civic democ- racy, then the world could hope for more even yrogress. At the next meeting of the Club, on March 1st, Mrs. Jamie- son will speak on "Denmark, Land of Co-operation."
