Let’s be good nosts | at this Lime of year there are m ‘an charm our friends sufficient ( this Lime of year there are Many we can charm our friends sivlicrently visitors among us, some for the first time and many others who have heen here before. I is nice to see them. Perched out here pretty well by itself, Prince Ru- pert does not have much opportunity to be host §.. guests who ave here just for pleasure. Conventions and other events which might atiract visitors during the winter are sot common here, and it is only when summer vaca- tionists start looking for interesting trips to make that we can expect to see new faces in any great number, It is therefore important during these few weeks to show how hospit- able a city this can be. Among people who live here it is known as a friendly place, and newcomers are not usually long in being made to feel welcome. This friendliness is an asset which we can easily share with others just passing through. Whether or not we hope to gain anything by it is not the point, or certainly should not be. Tf Dr. Wolfgang Schmidt, supervisor of legal studies at the Alcoholism and Drug Addiction Foundation of Ontario, said last week that re~ search in Canada and the United States has disproved the popular belief that most drinking drivers involved in accidents are just “social” Grinkers. He told a summer course on alcohol problems that abcut half the fatalities involve puthological driker, and appeals to the party- goer to pass up that ‘one for the road” won't du much to cut the number of fatalities caused iy drinking drivers. , , This strengthens an opinion frequently ex- pressed in these columns, that the penalties for nupuired and drunken driving are far too len- rut —- and all too often are far too leniently iiposed by the courts. br. Schmidt thinks that strong psychologi- ent and physical needs for alcohol prevent the rminkine drivers from being won by appeals to reason or threats of harsh. penalties. That ay be so, and if true, it supports the conten- into returning some other time and | bringing their friends with them, ma-- Lerial benefits will be felt. soon enough and meantime many pleasant ussocia- tions will have been formed. While all this is a matter of no great, pressive now, Lhe Lime is just ahead when we will have to year our- selves much more deliberately to ac- ecommodate visitors, [t is difficult to predict exactly what opening of the Alaska murine highway service will mean in terms of tourist traffic through this port but there is no doubt thal we shall require many more facililies for travellers than we now have. In ua sense, Lherefore, we are re- hearsing for Lhe big show to come. If we let ourselves become confused and bogged down, we will he im quite a mess for the main event. After Prince Rupert showed so much engerness in trying to gel this business in the first place, it will uot be much to brag about. The drinking drivers tion of doctors who believe that there should be more intense medical research into the problems of highway safety. Dr. Schmidt is talking about prevention, which is) highly important. But while the problem of. prevention is being solved, harsher penaltics can be imposed to keep the drinking drivers off the roads for lung periods of time. That, too, is prevention of a sort. What we mean by extreme and unjustified leniency was illustrated Vancouver court. A mugistrate there:suspended for one month the licence cf an impaired driver, — even though the man adinitted to 10 previous convictions, al least one of which was for negli- gent driving. The man pleaded that his car was necessary in his work, so the magistrate fined him $300 and forbade him to drive fer a month. One man’s convenience, apparently, is of more consequence than the safety of all other users of the roads, . ~. The Oshawa (Ont.)
