DOUGLAS SOCIAL CREDIT
Sir, —“Dercos” is disappointed that he cannot lead me up the garden tJath with irrelevancies and misrepresentations. He implies a bias of social creditors against general elections and secret ballots—utter nonsense. Alberta cannot, admittedly, achieve a perfect objective with one arm tied with constitutional embargoes. Within its limitations, it has done a job which has won wOrld-wide interest. Many of our critics seem, like the buyer who would condemn the serviceable car with a 100 per cent, engine because of flyspecks on the windscreen and a discoloured wiper. The successes of Alberta are authenticated and substantiated enough to every hostile criticism, despite minor imperfectioi s due so largely to outside restrictions. British Columbia, her neighbouring province, watching Alberta’s triumphs for nearly 20 years, has followed suit with a substantial majority—not a petty event, but surely a major truth for such as “Dercos” to digest. Yours, etc., , PLAIN FACTS. March 18, 1954.
