IN THE H O U S Eby David Stupich, M.L.A.

The third week of ourSession is now drawing to aclose. It may just be thatam getting tired of sitting &listening but the last weekseems to have been a .longone., I will soon be seeing myfamily again and the familiarquestion will be asked, 'Whatdo you do all week?" I ar-rTve in the Parliament Build-ings at 8:45 a.m. From thenuntil noon I am kept busyanswering mail, reading let-ters and briefs that are sub-mitted by various groups,calling on various Govern-ment departments to get ans-wers for constituents, andmeeting people who comejooking for help.

All of the members of theN. D. P. group have been ap-pointed to sit on two legisla-tive committees. Most of thebusiness of the House is refer-red to these committees fordetailed study brfore it is pre-

sented to the Mouse itself.These committees are juststarting to meet and by nextweek T expect that at leastthree morn ings a weekwi II be

.tied up with committe meet-

fmmediately after lunchwe have a caucus meetingthat lasts until the House op-ens at2o'cjock. The variousbriefs and bills to be present-ed to inform the rest of thegroup on the material studied.We then arrive at out col lect-ive opinion.

The House opens at 2 p.m.and generally carries on un-til 6 p.m. This week we havehad two night sessions as wd I,from 8:30 until 10:30 p.m.Another evening this weekwas taken up at a dinner &discussion sponsored by theU.B.C. Faculty Association.This is becoming an annualaffairat which university pro-fessors meet with M.L.A. sof all parties and have aninformal discussion on theprobl-ems and goals of ourhigher education system.

* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *Dear Editor: "A word FOR the Beatles and teen=agers in gen-era I.

These Beatles are ludicrous and loud, but honestly, wouldnot almost anyone be willing to act crazy for the handsomestipend these boys receive?

Although the teen-age audience on the Ed Sullivan showsounded likely candidates for a lunatic asylum doubt I ess thewhole thing was carefully staged, police and all, for Sulli-ivan is a master showman.

IT WAS THE ADULT BEHAVIOUR at a party -in the BritishEmbassy given by Lady Ormsby-Gore which was so disgustingand frightening. The Beatles, guests there, had every reason [to think so.

The Beatles are merely a passing fad. Their gyrations onstage no mare fantastic than people doing the Bunny Hug,Grizzly BearorCharleston on the dance floor in the good (?)old days. They do make a horrible row to untrained, so tospeak/adult ears. Today we live in a cacophonous worldand teen-agers are attuned to it.

This criticism of youth comes with every generation. Ithink we should be honest with ourselves and admit it st4msmainly from the fact we have been replaced by our sons anddaughters in the wonderful world of youth and we resent this,knowingly or not. "Children should be seen and not heard"was the axiom in my younger days. It is remarkable that anyof us grew up to have even ad degree of self-confidence.

The majority of teen-agers today are a fine, wholesomelot. Given half a chance they may even succeed in bringingabout "the brave new world". Remember that high soundingand very catchy phrase bandied about during War 2 andwhich appears to have "gone and been forgotten lik^e therest". (Signed) Ada Ryan.

with meetings such as theseor evening sessions we employour time reading the variousreports that have been pre-sented to the House and pre-paring for our own contribu-tions to the Debate.

As time goes on I amlearning more about the pro-ceudres that we follow hereand the background fro them.,.I now realize, for example,that technically speaking,the House is summonsed by theLieutenant-Governor. TheThrone Speech as read byhim is an outline of the rea-sons that he has for callingus together.

Once we have gatheredand have heard him give hisreasons, we then proceed,according to a tradition longestablished, to introduce somequite innocuous bill of ourown. This is to show that weconsider our own business tobe more important than thatof the Crown. Having heardthis bill &the Throne Speechthe members then discuss, ingeneral terms, conditions inthe province generally.

When the Throne Speechhas been adopted the Ministerof Finance presents his Bud-get. This includes a record ofrevenue and expenditure forthe last corrp-leted fiscal year,a forecast or revenue ana ex-penditures for the currentyear, and estimates for thenext year starting April 1,1964. This Debate also isquite genera I. vVearenot al-lowedto discuss in detail anyitem in the Budget Speechtnat refers to a bill that isbeing introduced by the Gov-ernment. We may discusssuch items only in the mostgeneral terms and may dis-cuss anything else that is inthe Budget Speech-either welike it or we don't - or wemay mention things that wefeel should have been in theBudget Speech.

Six houES a day is a longtimetosit & listen to speeches.I try to listen carefully to

0, 1964 D R I F T

what is being said and try tomake notes. Some of theserefer to when I speek myselfand others are just filed awayfor future reference. Some-times, quite frankly, themain reason tor making notesis to stay awake.

Although 1 may be prej-udiced I think the mostjnt- _cresting speech delivered sofar in this particular debatewas the one given last Thurs.by Dave Barrett. N.D.P.member f or Dewdney. He wasattacking the present systemof social welfare and whenhe was taunted by severalpeople from the Governmentside with the question, Well,what would you do about it?'he replied by asking them toconvene a meeting of thestanding committee on welfareand education. Apparentlythis is one of the committeesthat meets very infrequently.

His point was that thisparticular committee shouldmeet early and should busyjtself ca 11 ing together repre-sentatives from the SocialWelfare Dept. itself and oth-ers who have some knowledgeof such matters. The committ-ee should then try to arriveata non-political solution tothe problems. Whether or notthey achieve immediate re-sults is not the point. Atleast the Government wouldbe taking some action and
