Especially to Canada does Ihe news eem tnigie and shocking for his end came just one week after he had visited Vancouver a visit which vn epochal for it was the firt lime in history that a president of the United Stales had set foot on Canadian soil. It is indeed a difficult mailer to give voice lo the regrets that will permeate the Dominion. A week ago yesterday President Harding, apparently robust and in the best of health, visited Canada amLJhe Canadians rejoiced. Last night the end came wrlli tragic suddenness and Canadians today sorrow equally with their neighbors lo the south. The world was alarmed at the news of the president's illness, but it was not prepared for the worst. Minister Of Public Works Can Assist. While he was not in a position to make any definite statements with regard lo port development, which is the one question that every one here is interested in now, Hon. Dr. J.

King, minister of puNfe work., in hi addros yesterday at the banquet tendered in bis honor by the Hoard of Trade in the St. Regis t'.afe, said: "ldo not wish lo mak-any promises in Hie mailer.

I wih lo ay, hoxvexer, that 1 am willing l co-operate wiilh your federal member, Mr. Stork, and I will be very glad indeed to help him make representations not only to the minister of trade and commerce, but also to ministers of the. government regards the development of port." In his speech Dr. King touched upon the gre'al importance of the development of the hinterland with the introduction of immi. gralion. He. pointed out the enormous debt that Canada was laboring under as the result of the .J treat War and the'jmporl-ance of any government drawing up sane policies of the as yor oi ihe government s eiwrts nan Imeant that there was now the !-net co-operation for Hie firl time in Canada between Hie im. .migration department. of the gov- 1 ,;., 1 1. . .. . . 1 11... t-: ..U: . l ' l i 1 1 1 . : u .. . x .1 1 1. . i. ..

Prince Rupert but aUo In that' erlion if Ihe country lying eal of Prince Huperl. lioxerninenl policy should be laid carefully so' n to ettend oxer a period 'o reach a certain objective. A far as ihe city of Prince Jlupert is concerned there was a jxilicy laid down by the government of Can. immigration a.la which I consider was well and expansion and aiming con-!P4.,.jP,, Unfortunately unfor-tinually for that objective.

He pointed nut Hint the number of immigrants to Canada was on Ihe increase and bad increased some 38 per eent Ibis year over last. The government. Dr. King sai had reached out and had tried ! co-operate with Ihe various provincial government to ascertain their desires as lo what immigra tion should lake (place into the j respective novinces. The resulu prosperous. levelon the it was essential to natural resources of desired object. He, like oilier 'recent visitors here, musl liavciIP rttmitry and lo do this it gained the impression that something along that line is needed I her in justice to the port and lo lhe.: advantage, of western Canada. ' Vancouver Man's x . ... ; . Refreshing Statement.'- ' 'The statement of R. E. Beallie, Vancouver harbor commissioner, that Vancouver would be unable lo handle all the prairie grain moving woLaiid that Prince Ifiiperl Mioubl participate in the carrying of it and get an elexator iu order lo do so is very inleresling. One might not have expected that a Vancouver man would make.1 such a statement. In. .fact, hrVist local people seem to have gained the impression that Vancouver is not willing to share up any of this business. Mr. Beattie's statement will give a refreshing change to that im'pressjon. It was a very fair statement and gix-'es rise la the belief that some Vancouver people, al any rale, realize thai the interests of Ihe coast and both ports can be best served by mutual co-operaliou. A little more of this attitude both here and at Vancouver would perhaps be to Ihe better advantage of all conferped and certainly it would be more pleasant. . Public Works Appropriations. Dr. King's visit was made the occasion of announcing the appropriations for the building of some badly needed facilities in the. matter of wharves in Ihe district. While Ihe expenditure lo be involved in the work is not heavy in fad the dMriel is entitled to a good deal more it -will give some relief. There : much more necessary work required lo be done in Ihe district. Situation Not Much Improved. ' - In spile of the many hopeful indications thai cropped up during the past few weeks .since Premier Baldwin slarled his negotiations with France regrirding the Ruhr situation and Herman reparation payments, Ihe announcement made in the House of Commons yesterday by the Prjme. .Minister indicates that n settlement is jus about as far off as ever. France is resolute in her demands and, from her own .standpoint, is justified in many respects. The refusal of (hat country lo have an international commission investigate flermany's ability to pay, however, seems lo be carrying Ihe thing a little too far. Apparently she hns lost her trust in every nation but herself. Undoiibledlv some course along this line will have lo be followed whether Fiance likes it or nol mid fireat Britain, i( seepis, will have to take some independent action in pursuing Ihe. course of a mediator. Perhaps when a little more is proven of the real situation 10 both France and Oermany, an agreement mav be, brought closer. In the meantime, the war is on. It is lo be hoped that 11 does not develop into anything more hostile limn it is nt present. an The Art of Spending Getting the most for your money and conquering the tendency to spend for trifles is possible only through practice and self discipline. When possible avoid the habit of buying on credit. A good rule is "Pay as you go." Think twice and challenge the necessity of every expenditure.

In his opening remarks lie thanked Hie Itotary Club for waiving Iheir risrlils to Hie dining room on their accustomed Thursday luncheon so that Ihey might join the Hoard of Trade in listening to Dr. King while in Hie rjly. He welcomed Dr. King I tie visitors accompanying him ami called upon Fred Stork, M.P. Fred Stork, M.P. Mr. Stork said that it was a great pleasure lo xxelconte lo Hie city Hon. '.I. H. King, minister of public work,, also Senator Tiirgfon, of Ottawa, .whom he knew thoroughly well a a real good friend of the city of Prince Huperl. He (Mr. Stork; had, in his humble way, been Irving to present Hie claims of Prince Huperl lo the government. 'e hut taken ourselves very seriously and rightly so. The people of Prince Huperl bad come here some . years ago mid were slaying because they had faith in Ihe future of the cily which Ihey still retained. He had fa i III that the present government would assist n every way in the development of (his northern part of Hrilish Columbia, The speaker said if he were asked lo Male, the, most important thing that Prince Huperl required today, he would say, in view of Ihe recent de velopiiientx in the gran movement, hii elevator, in order Hint the cily might participate in the Pacific handling of grain ,v means of the natural railway grade ami Hie wonderful geographical facilities.. He appreciated that the lime had arrived when Prince Huperl should no longer be put olT with excuses. The people had done Iheir part in building up what had become llio best part of Hrilish Columbia. We had Ihe mineral and limber and the best graded railroad on Ihe continent of America, and a port which wan second lo none. Wo looked forward lo great expansion ami had great hope Hint in Hie near future Prince Huperl. would forge ahead along Hie lines laid down by Hie late Sir Wilfred l.aurler. Dr. J. H. King In rising to make the speech of Hie day, Dr. King said: "Mr. Chairman and gentlemen, I not necessary for me lo fipluin lo yon or tell you or my delight at being here today. During the period, and as n result we Hud ourselves in an uncertain posi. lion today. However, we are still a country intact and our people have courage so I lint vve can at all time lake up Hie program where il was delayed and proceed with its development. "1 know Ihe desire of Ihe present government is to see a development in Canada which will widen the area of country and if that policy is followed 1 am satisfied thai this country will come into its own. Tin N n day when men mul exercise patience is done belter iesiils will be oh lained. "Your desires n-e to have a great port in the northern Paci- ific.

I think I can safely say In you that, with conditions in (he flow of wheat developing a Ihey have,- there i enough wheal lo go round and Rial Prince Huperl will gel her share on account op her natural location and the development that ha preceded." Develop Port Continuing the speaker, said thai if Caitmla wa to grow and lo exist a a pal ion it wa neces. sary to develop Hie ports nM only on the Atlantic hul on Hie Pacific, Money was being spent to develop the port lo handle Ihe produce and manufactures or Canada in order thai Ihey migh reach the world's, markets. In the development of Hie northwest Ihere had been a perioifof great activity ami the people were looking forward lo another period of thai nature. II was true, however, (hat there was mil Ihe same quantity of free land available ami that, owing lo Ihe financial condition, people would have lo pay more inlo the treas ury than Ihey did years ago. If Canada was lo succeed more people musl be hroiiuhl in. "We were faced Inday with three problems, three problems (hat go hand iii hand. First our financial condition, Where we had a debt of some .100,nOO,uOO al the outbreak of Ihe war, we haxe taken on bigger obligations and our debt is now two billion three hundred millions. Thai being so we must consider how we are going Hi mee these obligations, To do so we must bring into Canada nol only a larger number jif settlers but mutt also induce capital lo come in order thai our lands may he 'Opened up.
