May
Be
Difficult
Position
In
Britain.
The
general
opinion
seems
to
be
that
the
Labor
Party
in
fireat
llritniu
will
get
a
larger
group
than
it
has
now
as
a
result
of
the
election
which
is
to
take
place
this
month.
That
Aill
mean
they
will
still
be
dependant
on
the
Liberals
for
support
to
keep
them
in
power
or
to
turn
them
out,
If
the
proportion
of
parlies
after
the
election
is
anything
like
what
it
is
today
the
government
will
have
In
institute
an
inquiry
into
the
alleged
irregular
withdrawal
of
the
trial
of
a
communist
editor
and
will
also
it
would
seem
have
to
withdraw
from
the
Russian
treaty,
because
both
Liberals
and
Conservatives
have
expressed
themselves
as
opposed
to
its
terms.
-
If
these
matters
are
forced,
it
would
seem
as
if
the
government
will
resign
and
there
would
be
nothing
for
it
but
to
choose
the
Conservative
leader
to
again
form
a
government.
The
threat
to
do
this
will
doubtless
be
held
over
Liberals.
J
Everthing
connected
with
the
election
is
largely
a
matter
of
speculation
for
no
one
knows
what
an
electorate
is
going
tol
do.
There
is
a
hare
possibility
that
Labor
may
get
a
majority
over
all,
but
even
the
strongest
supporters
of
the
government
hardly
expect
that.
j
Extend
Welcome
To
Visiting
Ministers.
There-
is
no
need
to
urge
on
the
people
of
Prince
Rupert
to
extend
a
hearty
welcome
to-the
visiting
Prime
Minister
and
other
ministers
of
the
crown
whn-arc
Turning

Prince
Rupert
people
have
a.
habit
of
welcomingvisitors
cordially
and
especially
will
it
be
the
case
with
the
Prime
Minister
of
Canada.
They
will
extend
themselves
a
little
on
so
important
an
occasion.
.Messrs.
Cardin
and
McfSivern
are
visitors
who
have
not
been
here
before,
officially
at
any
rate.
The
fornver
is
the
Minister
of
Marine,
and
Fisheries
and
as
such
will
be
of
special
interest
to
Prince
Rupert.
Dr.
King
as
Minister
of
Public
Works
has'
"a.
great
deal
to
do
with
expenditures
of
public
money.
The
elevator,
however,
is
not
under
his
department.
It
comes
under
the
department
of
Trade
and
Commerce
over
which
Hon.
Thomas
Lowe
presides.
Unfortunately
Mr.
Lowe
is
mil
of
the
party,
but
the
Premier
will
be
well
posted

Shipping
Lumber
To
Empire
Points.
From
a
trade
point
of
view
it
does
not
seem
to
be
t
much
advantage
to
belong
to
the
British
Empire.
Whenever
Ihere
is
any
business
to
be
done
the
British
people
lake
it
to
theAXiiited
States.
The
latest
example
of
this
is
seen
in
the
purchase
of
a
lumber
mill
at
Silka
to
supply
spruce
to
the
rubber
planters
in
the
Straits
Settlements.
We
also
see
it
just
across
the
line
where
the
Ketchikan
mill
is
shipping
lumber
to
Australia
steadily
while
B.C.
mills
nre
idle.
It
costs
as
much
to
manufacture
lumber
in
Alaska
as
in
British
fjoluinhia
and
the
timber
is
the
same.
British
merchants
and
others
do
not
seem
to
realize
that
Canada
has
anything
to
sell.
If
the
business
is
all
going
to
the
States
it
would
seem
as
if
it
would
be
belter
for
us
to
be
a
part
of
the
States
than
connected
with
the
British
Empire.
The
Wembley
incident
is
being
repeated
in
many
places.

It
is
difficult
to
do
this
when
they
see

should
be

going
to
another
country,
not
once
or

with

every
time

only
by
