Who is the first to say we don't need the conch anymore lord of the flies?
The conch represents democracy, something Jack never believed in. Democracy was the reason he wasn't chosen as in leader in the first vote when he believed he should be. The conch begins to lose it's power throughout the chapter and is truly worthless when Jack forms his own group to which he automatically becomes a leader choosing not to believe that a democratic vote will elect him as leader. When Jack says the conch is no longer needed he says it because savagery has already won, he will become leader no matter what Ralph and the conch say. He later mentions that the conch doesn't work on his half of the island which shows that he has no respect for democracy and that his tribe are lead by a dictator.

Why does jack say that they don't need the conch anymore page number?
Jack says that they don't need the conch anymore because he knows that the conch is the only thing that Ralph has that is keeping his tribe together. When Jack says the conch is no longer needed he says it because savagery has already won, he will become leader no matter what Ralph and the conch say. In the book the conch symbolizes civilization and Jack does not want to be reminded of what he used to have before they were trapped on the island. I also think that Jack has no respect for civilization and order because he wants to live without rules
