Power is king in the industrial world. The place that can offer plenty of cheap power is the one thai will make progres-. Just now power is Ihe one thing Ihal Prince Rupert lacks. There are plenty of waterpowers in Ihw district but none of them are developed. If the Canadian Pacific Railway officials or any other group is willing to put its money into a big power development scheme it should receive every possible encouragement front the people of Prince Rupert and doubtless would gel il. We want the power ami we do not waul to load the oily down with debt in order to gel it. If we are backed up lo the wall we cair probably do it but il would be belter for a privale company to 'harness? the falls and sell us the power. Woollen Industry i Is Analyzed. The Manitoba Free Press has mi editorial article dealing with the woollen industry which should prove of interest in view of the persi.stent efforts of the manufacturers (o raise the duty on woollen products. Following is what Ihe Winnipeg paper says: 'The pondition of the woollen industry is much lo Ihe fore in Canada, the United Stales and Oreal Itt'itaiu. A number of Canadian woollen mills have closed in the last few month claiming that they are unable to compete in the Canadian market against goods imported from abroad. There is a demand from the Canadian woollen manufacturers for increased protection bv means of a higher tariff on imported woollen goods. At the present time the Canadian woollen manufacturer is pro tecled against the outside "manufacturer by a tariff duty running from twenty to thirty-five per cent. 'The British woollen manufacturer who t'njoys no tariff !M l.'tl O'Oi) Itrilivli woiiIIpii wio-l.ir fi:m lii'i'n mil nf work ililP to Ihe failure of the employers and employees to reach a wage settlement. The employers attempted lo gel the workers to lake a wage reduction of ten per cent, which Ihe workers turned down. The employers have now proposed a wage reduction of five per cent, which has aim been unacceptable lo the workers. The Hrilish manufacturer claims (bat the state of the industry makes it necessary for him to cut his costs in order to be hide to carry on. ) "Inthe United Slates, where the woollen manufacturer has the greatest proleclion of any industry in (hat conn try, Uie manufacturers claim that they arc losing money and a ten per cent cut in the wages of the mill workers has been ordered. Under Hie Fonlney-.MrCunilier tariff of 1022, woollen goods entering the United Slates are taxed fripn twenty to forty-five cents au pot i ml and there is :pt ad valorem duty of from forty to fifty per cent on lop of thai. II is. perhaps safe to say that Ihe woollen industry in the United Stales is just about as highly protected as any in Ihe world. Yel.lhe manufacturers are in difficulty and are culling Ihe wages 'of their employees. "We hav this situation, then: the woollen industry is in difficulty in free trade llritain; in Canada, with a medium tariff, comparatively, and in Ihe United Stales wilh a sky-high lariff.
