D. Pattullo, member for Prince Rupert, in this issue. He urges that the federal government should DAILY EDITION stake'the credit of the country in order to secure money tOj}ine Enetich start up some large construction works that would find employment for everyone. He draws attention to the fact that in time of war the last dollar would be expended in order to secure victory. Today there is an emergency and a few million dollars would provide for the necessary out-|,,, lay. This would bring prosperity to everyone for it would give the men who are now unemployed a purchasing power | which they do not at present possess. This is a policy advocated by the Daily News for some time. We have taken the view that it is the duty of the fed- eral government to provide employment as it is the only one with the necessary resources. If the seven hundred men now idle in Prince Rupert were all employed there would be a payroll that would at once cause activity. Instead of empty buildings being seen here and there, we should see construction of ney build- ings proceeding and this would add to the employment. In- stead of meetings of protest and mutterings against the state, there would be a contented people, prosperous and happy and loyal. It would be the beginning of the new era which we are all expecting. EFFECT OF KIDD REPORT Gradually we are being informed of the injury done to the province by the publication in London of a summary of the Kidd report, particularly of a column article in the Times. One writer from London says: “It is no exaggeration to say that the effect of this col- umn-long indictment of the province was most disastrous, and brought to the Agent-General a host of enquiries from anxious investors. The credit of a country is as easily open to attack as is the credit of an individual, and is just as eas- | ily disturbed. One wonders, therefore, if the business men who composed the committee ever paused to reflect that, in their passion for plain speaking, they might bring down upon their own industries, no less than on other enterprises in the province, all sorts of unforseen reactions. In point 1 Bill Bacon Wakes London Up; THE DAILY NEWS City Working Nine Day Week To Keep Pace With His Calls By Sid Webb) LONDON, Nov. 18:—Wherever one goes’ in London nowadays everyone is talking Prince Rupert and its fish products as the result of the tremendous heralding broad- cast by Bill Bacon, the great little representative for Great Britain of the Bacon Fisheries, who arrived in Lon- don recently. The question is—where ean one get Prince }point him upon Rupert fish products the time Bill has burned up the sidewalks in the big city a little more I guess we'll be able to get them delivered with the milk. Can- ned prawns and milk will then be- ‘come the national breakfast food of Irish, Scotch and Welsh and Jews. The writer was nearly struck a pale green hue one day last week when the lady reception clerk brought him a business card an- nouncing that Bill Bacon had ar- ived. And what a Bill it has grown to in the past six years-—five feet nothing of real Canadian manhood there,” and the glasses he wears well he might be Harold Lloyd's younger brother but he isn’t Well, folks, after the usual “How- dy” formalities Bill suggested some- thing about going out and one.” The writer hated to disap- such an auspicious occasion so duly donned his lid and piloted Bill into the turmoil of traf- | fic in Fleet Street. Soon the welcome doors of a pub admitted us and Bill, with both hands in his pockets | to see that no one else put theirs in strolled up to the palatial bar and ordered two bitters. None of this, “WhaWll you have? stuff” about Bill in case one lost their memory and ordered a double Scoich. | No, Bill has got on to the London ropes in fast shape so instead of a |35c drink, as had been anticipated, | the writer had to be content with a '9c drink, hence the reason for Bill jmaking his pile. After some eats j}and “one more” for luck we hit for St. Paul’s Cathedral just to show | 3ill that we did have a.chureh in |Vondon. When we got inside the vriter inquired “Well, Bill, how joes this strike you for a place of | -vorship?” “Not much,” Bill, I've seen as good in Metlakatla.” Says of fact, one of the most urgent enquirers at British Colum-}e fazing Bill about the sights of bia House was a shareholder in the British Columbia | Power Corporation, who only recovered his confidence he Northern Pacific terminus! But ye had to admit that we possessed few more historic statues than when he read the Agent General’s subsequent letter in the} :ney aid in Metlakatla. althoueh not Times.” ONE TRUSTS ; AN EXPERIENCED ~ | CAPTAIN; During the past 63 years, The Royal , T has weathered storms.

Bill can find fault with most things but thinks the English beer is good enough for a hair wash. The writer left Bill, after coming out, to go into the city and see a few of the “knobs” on business. Did he know his way? Did he know the names of the men to see? He sure did know and whats more he saw them—trust it; to Bill.

Then we went down the dilly Tube St Picca- station;shand ling more passengers per day than any other station in the world. It was no good telling the wandering boy that—he'd handled as many passenger: the goed old launch “22” over to the Salt Lakes on a fine Saturday and Sunday tr a few more cal) for “light” reffeshment, we ever tually got back home, safe if not sound. Bill had at least seen the! West End of London, and had not been kidnapped. The writer is thinking of taking him to the zoo for a little bear hunting just to put him in his natural environment Tonight. Monday, we're going to a vaudeville show together but the will bet a steam roller to a loaf of second hand bread that Bill has seen a better show in the little old town for nothing. Anyway, folks, the city is keeping a watchful eye on Bill’ j}movements in case he _ robs the ‘country of all the fish business, and keeping a watchful leye on him too in case he “horns in” on his preserves. One never | knows where Bill will stop. | I must end now by saying that ithe great little Bill thinks the ra‘n }over here is a bit wetter than it is ;at home. otherwise there isn’t much to this side to him, Cheerio! tion a However dear the writer is Prince Rupert DRY DOCK AND SHIPYARD Operating three Dry Docks Total capacity 20,008 tons Shipbuilders and Ship Repairers for Steel and Woed Vessels Iron and Brass Casting Electric and Acetylene Welding 50-ton Derrick for Beavy Lifts Sawmill and Mining Machinery , Friday, NoVember 1, se SAR ne ie ~ Quitting Public Life “SIStv ee Vice-President Charles Curtis, who announces he will be through with public life when his hit these | Charles Morris of Smithers Imports Morris, Smithers, i esiablishing e the line of the foundation for the raising of high through the recent importation of their livestock durng the past 14 and sweat cil, castor : oe ; cream.
