He was replying _.------------------------. to Charles Millard (C.C.F., West York), who wanted to know where the act setting up a board of ex- aminers in forestry fitted into the general forestry commission plan. The Premier explained that the Forestry Engineers Act. dealt with individual qualifications, and was independent of any other act. As far as the creation of the commis- sion was concerned, the Premier continued, this must await the end of hostilities because certain pow- ers under the War Measures Act . were in effect and overrode Provin- cial jurisdiction. The bill to set up a board of ex- aminers in forestry was,arnended . after considerable discussion, and was subsequently reported out of committee.
