Looking On -Bright' Side KlSASTERS make news and peaceful plodding U-along doesn't. It would seem that life, is be-coming a series of explosions, collisions, fires, Wrecks, plots and pillaging. Ye it .cannot be as, bad ; as all that. Sin hits the front page. Virtue does nothing of the kind. It is only when one loses a sense of balance and heeds only the sensational to the exc.Uisjon of about all else that he gets the.wrongr angle. The world is a pretty fair place to be in, despite the professional reformers. Get the right slant, and it is quite possible that millions of folks are happy and prospering. Anyway, if that is the viewpoint frojn which one looks, the chances are he may not be so far out in reality. CHLORINATION to return to. the use. of chlorinated DECISION water appears, to. have aroused but languid interest in Prince Rupert. The Medical Health Off icer's. recommendation has been adopted by the 'city in "a "casting vote and there it is. Some consumers say they do not relish the flavor. Others say they are unaware of difference in taste, or. of .feeling, any ill effect. The object, all sublime,: is. to,-safeguard the public health., So be it! ". . ' i BRAZIL :T IS PERHAPS not generally known that Brazil,; I from which country President Truman has just : returned home, is larger than continental United :States. The American chief executive, and, party have been in Rio de. Janeiro, helping honor, an.Jm-. portant anniversary, and the i occasion, was, ...one, of reat goodwill and success- Brazil has a population of some. 50. million. Raik ".ways total more than, 20,000 miles. The climate -is .tropical with heavy rainfalls.. In exports, coffee, to Brazil, is what wheat is to Canada., Rio (le;Janeirp is one of : the.worldV outstanding pities, wjth a rjppulation of approximately 2,000,000, aml a harbor of surpassing beauty and, utility, ; Yes, the Western Hemisphere, has. more than :North America., DOLLAR SHORTAGE"' WHATMS KNOWN as the "dollar shortage", is. occupying United Nations statesmanship jut now. Sometimes John Public has only.a vague 'understanding of what; a problem or policy is or I.what it's all about. But he comprehends this one all right. He realizes, with crystal clearness, wri.at jtfrieans.-At least he thinks heroes. It.is put, ratheir b'oldly and has many thorny .features not suggested in tile phrasing. "Dollar Shortage!' is correct, as far-gas it goes, but that's, only the beginning. tm ILLITERACY INEXCUSABLE JIT IS NQT AN unusual experience, still, to discover.. someone unable to read or- write. This illiteracy- is not confined to age or sex. Perhaps, there is itan wwpmuiv e.pianaton dui it wouia nave to De Sgood. There seems little excuse for one growing to jmaturity in Canada today without being able to read or write. And if one comes to Canada, ill equipped so far as even the rudimenjts .o euqation, are concerned, he or she ne.eo not reniai.n.. that way' he cost of education, to, tax payers, in Canada is Iheavy. And Canada wants something to show for lier money. 3 ONES BILL OUT? kA LL INDICATIONS PQIT tp.,the.

'TROUBLES EVERYWHERE WHAT HAS A VIVID resemblance. to. large, scale war JJs swiftly developing in India,; now that the'hand of Britain has been withdrawn. Call it intercpmmunal, strife in Delhi and, elsewhere, in '! the north, if you like but thousandhaye,ben, killed i and wounded,, grave losses have be,en suffer and mutual hatreds have grown.

The cease fire order applied to, the Indonesia, situation has been given indifferent obedience. I Impressed with Port of Prince Rupert (Continued from Page .One); tion. Fall varieties of salmon were being run through the .canning plant. The fish were followed from the delivery platforms through the lines to the canning retorts. Making of , cans and nets was also seen after which delicious refreshments were served In, ,the mess hall. Acknowledgment of the hospitality was extended to the host, H. F. Robins, manager of the cannery, by William Drummond of South Shields, England, in a witty speech. The , party also saw the site at Watson, Island where the B.C. Bridge and Dredging Co. with big machinery is now digging out rock and earth, at the rate of thousands of yards per day on the, site of the Cela,-nese,.

Canadian Newspapers From the Monthly Letter of lioyal Bank of Canada INSTALMENT NO. 5 FOREIGN NEWS IMPORTANT Foreign news is particularly important in these days when so much that happens at home is linked in some way with far-off events. .There can be no One Worjd,,no, effective United Nations, no. final guarantee of peace, said the New York Times recently, until all the peoples of, the, earth have access to all the news they, need, A program wast brought forward in May as an objective, . for. the International Conference on Freedom of, Information; to facilitate the gath ering and transmission of news, to implement the right of all persons and peoples to accurate, comprehensive, and,. representa tive information, to provide for organization in all principal news centres of a foreign correspondents' corps wlth: strict, self-administered codes of ethics, anii to provide continuing; nfa-chinery to promote the free flow of true Information. This last provision is important It may" be said that In order to attract the maximum audience the press emphasizes the exceptional rather than the representative, the dramatic rather than the significant; but Increas ing attention needs to be paid to seeing that the resulting picture is ,true. More people today than eyer beore are Interested in knowing not only what Is happening, but.;Why it is, .happening. Newspapers aware,. of this. trend havebeen attempting Jto provide Interpretative material along with,, the, news. STUDY WOULD, AFFAUIS LONDON, W A seven-day mnwi rirrm I LETTERBOX TAX OWNERS KEPLY Editor. Daily News. The letter appearing in your paper signed by L. C. Huckley of Red Deer Alberta,, is' noted. There.are certain facts concerning the, "disagreeable situation" which existed on the Canadian National dock. with regards to transportation which we "wish to bring ,to light for Mr, Huck-ley's benefit and the general public. The service in. whose .car he was indeed fortunate, tq obtain a ride, we contend, made an attempt to .monopolize , the,, sightseeing business from tourist travel. No e'ffort was made to have cars In the dock line-up to ac- commodate passengers disembarking with luggage and children, There are taxi operators who have been in business In. Prince Rupert, providing servlc; to business people, families and sightseers alfke, long before this service to travellers" was thought of. Tne. apparent ooycott was merely an' effort to show, the public what could be,, expected frcm a firm primarily interested. In slsht-seelnv business. Should Mr. Huckley or any of your readers desire further details on this matter, the undersigned will gladly furnish same upon request. PRINCE. RUPERT TAXI OWNFIRS' ASSW, L, BassorBert, Pres.

Prop. i WN T COOPER Manager MOSQUITQES ARE ONE UP Flies Still Have Upper Hand on Army, D.D.T. Notwithstanding OTTAWA "Operation Mosquito? is a tough business. The Insect pests up north continue to give the assaults waged by the army plenty of opposition. As a matter of fact, the flies stil, have the .upper, hand. The normal attack of a quarter to half a pound of DDT. per acre, sprayed from, planes in 100 yard strips, routed the foe for a short period. Heavy reinforcements came on. in. swarms. General conclusion of the ex perts is that the time may soon come when northern residents will no longer need suffer in silence, or .with the help of profanity, according to individual temperament "Give us a chance to work out better methods of attack! say the scientists, "and then we will see If these pests cannot be. softened up."
