 Three days later, on his weekly radio program, Aberhart acknowledged that he had been unable to implement the monthly dividends during the eighteen-month period he had set as his deadline, and asked Social Credit constituency association presidents to convene meetings of all Social Credit members to decide whether he ought to resign.He suggested that, in light of poor spring road conditions in rural areas, these meetings be delayed until early June, during which time he would remain in office.The media objected to Aberhart's plan to place his government's future in the hands of the 10% of Albertans who were Social Credit members; the "Calgary Herald" called for an immediate election.
