John Hart COLUMBIA, since she entered Confederation BRITISH in 1871, has had twenty-one Premiers and some of them have been very illus-rious men. We think of McBride, Oliver, Pattullo and some of the others and we can say, with no discredit to them, that John Hart has been as talented and as capable as any of them. Possibly he combined the distinctions of them all the affability and diplomacy of McBride, the color to a measure at least and downright integrity of Oliver, the drive and administrative capacity of Pattullo. Therefore, in paying tribute to Mr. Hart, as he prepares to step down to his retirement, well enough earned and richly deserved, we must admit that he going to be a very hard man to replace and that British Columbia will be the poorer as it yields to necessity of seeing him go. John Hart shone in financial affairs, which were his private business, and it was, as has often been said, in his capacity as an able, adept and astute financier, that he served this province'best for the nearly thirty years he was in public life. The name of the Irish immigrant lad who became the provnee's first coalition Premier will long be associated with the financial history of British Columbia. While finances and administration thereof may have been his natural forte, Mr. Hart had qualities of diplomatic leadership and the ability to bargain and compromise. Accordingly, when it came time for the political coalition, he was the logical choice to form and lead. That was in the early years of the war and he was amply fitted for the position in which he found himself of guarding and conserving the finances of the province until the time should come when spending might again be the order of the day. Now, as he retires, he leaves a inch financial legacy upon which the succeeding administration may draw to carry on the extensive and useful expenditures of the new postwar era of improvement and development. Despite his long and active career as financier and public servant, Mr. Hart never lost the capacity to play. A footballer of note in his younger days, he became a champion golfer in his later years. He is still an ardent devotee of the course andt unlike many men who may have worked hard and wll, he has Kept his physique and mind such that he will be in a position to enjoy the many years of retirement he will be generously wished by the friends than whom no man in British Columbia has more. In expressions of appreciation and well-wishing to Mr. Hart the Daily News feels privileged' to join in a happy and personal sense. ELIZABETH DECIDES THE ARGUMENT has been settled. Stylists I have been differing over whether skirts shall be low or high. Now Princess Elizabeth has come out in her new suit with the skirt's end at the knee line. So that will prpbably be where it will be for women and girls the world over. It is just 'that way and there is no decree or order about it just the falling in line with the -example of our gracious royalty. And it will not be the first time. Was it not a former Elizabeth who set the fashions of an era that still has its influence on the styles of today? Did not Victoria, iti her .younger days, too come, forth in styles that, for their day might even have been considered startling if not daring and which were speedily adopted? And who, might we ask, was it who created the still favored off-the-face hat fashion if it was not our own charming Queen Elizabeth? So when mother, sister and daughter show their knees creaky, bony or comfortably plumped, as they may, she will be doing just as her ancestral sisters and responding to regal favor in the serious business of prettying up.

The fourth and last of this group was "Cacllia" (Cecilia) Op. 27 No. 2 of Rich ard Strauss, a sprightly number of which Mr. Gorln made the most. By this time both singer and audience were "en rapporte" and sensing the mood of the latter, Mr. Oorin made an alteration in the third section of hU program, substituting the moving aria of Germont from Act 2 of Verdi's "Traviata" "Di Pro- venza 11 mar, 11 suol" In which the father pathetically pleads in vain with his son to return with him to their home. The Interpretation given this number so pleased the listeners that the artist was brought back by applause to render an encore thS rollicking "Largo al factotum" (Room for the factotum) from 'Act I of Rossini's "Barber of Seville."

Next followed Rossini's exacting number "La Danza," (Tarantella Napoditana) li which Gorln exhibited his fine showmanship in portraying the excitement of youth with feet itching for the dance. This Item closed the first section of the program and an appreciative and insistent audience brought Mr. Gorin back to the stage three times to acknowledge their un-restained applause. It was quite apparent that he had "captured the house." The second part of the program consisted of a .group of four German "leider',' a special form of song in which the music Interprets the words which are the most important factor. Most music lovers prefer to hear these songs in German but Mr. Gorin wished the whole audience tr know exactly the meaning of each song and chose to sing them rep resented a well merited encore. Mr. Gorln then took the star' for the fifth section of his con cert which consisted of four Rm-1 slan songs. The first "My Beloved" (SheDherd's Lamenu. in Russian, was sung with deep feeling and restraint. In th:s number he showed remarkable control over a beautiful mezzo-voce tone. "The Drunkard" (Burlak Ukrainian folk song, which followed, once more afforded the singer an apportunlty to demonstrate his remarkable power cf characterization. Gorin's versatility was never mere dramatically demonstrated than when with hardly a pause following the previous song, his marvellous voice commenced Tschikovsky's Doignant crief- choly and a deep hush followed his last note. A robust "Caucasian Melody" of Mr. Gorin's own composition followed in which he demonstrated his dynamic range and perfect control. As an encore 1m sang a humorous number com posed by an ex-American "'O. I." John Sacco entitled "You Can"t Take it With You." The closing section (vl) of Mr. Gorin's program opened with "The Lament of Ian the Proud" C. T. Griffes, Op. 11, No. 1, a contemporary American composer's setting of Fiona McLeod's (Wm. Sharp) poem "What '.t I This Crying I Hear In the Wind." "The Roadside Fire" from i Songs of Travel by Robert L ABOUT PRICES... It seem3 to me that the Government did a pretty necessary job in too sudden a way when it tossed off most of the remaining price ceilings and cut away a bunch of subsidies with one big swoop. A lot of people think it could have been done by stages. - - - - jtiJwstn- ' ainlv true: If vou don't ' nav a man pnrinoh I" I " -o- money to interest him in working, his heart won't be in his work, and if you don't pay a company enough money to interest it in producing something people want, then it won't be much interested in turning out that particular thing. When you get right down to it, the way to get rid or shortages is to produce and the way to get production is to give men and com-panies an incentive to pitch in and do a job. Under price controls you build up scarcities. Lift the controls and you naturally get a jump in prices then, sooner or later, enough pro-duction results to bring prices back to the level where they belong. Trouble is that a war is an economic earthquake and you don't suddenly go back to normal when a war ends.
