WHY ALWAYS KK KINCJ AllOfT JAZZ JUMC? Someone Is always objrt ting to Jazz mo-lc and some state without in) qualirirutlous that It It not muslr. The latest person to take a sUm at Jazz Is the president of the Congress of National Organists In England, lie ralh It a "noise tor darning" and mjs It t "sensual, noisy, ad Incredibly stupid." The redeeming feature of the criticism U that the peaker said he often IMened t It. There It Is In a nutshell. Classical music Is lnetited to talk about hut Jazz music Is what people listen to. Ol course no one suggests that Jazz should take the place of the tarred strains of the organ In ehncrh. There U a time and place for everything ami there certainly I a place for Jazz In this world and It seem to be a sery large place, tie n the people who talk most about the rlassles will be found to be listening more often to the popular strains of the modern tune. Anything that appeals strongly to iilue-tenths of the people. ran hardly be, dl-mlssed with a wave of the hand of the, president I the organists' association. WHY MAM EVr.ItYTIIlXfi TO WHICH VOL OIUECTf - U) he organists object to wz thai doe nut mean anything. They are no Judges. They are prejudiced In favor of their own kind of music from which tliey make a living. If Jazz becomes too popular, they must cease to eat unless they change their ocrnpatlon. It Is bad form, to say the least, for them to express a 'public opinion on such a matter. Whllett must be admitted that there are time to which many would take exception, jet the best grade of Jazz music Is very cheering and tends t) "make life happier and the world better" as the Uks would say. Aujthlng that cheers, without Injuring is most valuable. Anf alter all Is not much of the so-called classic music very boring. Even the musical highbrows themselves nuke a point of stsylng away from events where It Is to be played. It Is mostly those who are anxious to be classed as highbrows but who are not who protend they like some of the tuneless productions which pass for "classical music."

It Is always a good thing to get together arid talk over the big problems even If no decision Is reached In regard thereto. The Canadian statemcn show up well In Great Britain. They are eiual In Intelligence and training to the best on the other side of the ocean and need not take a hack seat for anyone; It Is among the people there that this Is reH cognized.

For teii -years or more people liave been talking of erecting a smelter at Prince Kupert. It l pointed out that a smelter here would serve the mines or the.

It would also he used with advantage by the mines at .Stewart and other Poortland Canal points and by (he Porrlier island mines. It. V. Ilaurn. who was In prince Kupert at the week end, revived the Idea and he again pointed ont how beneficial such an Institution would be In the development of the mining Industry. He said he thought Prince Kupert should not let up on the agitation for a metallurgical plant suitable for treating the ores of the mines of this district.

Robertson said, had started work ajtlvely in 1919 to give assistance, financial and otherwise, to ex-aervte: men and dependents of those who had been killed truths war who were In need and, In various ways, td promote the best Interests of such people. The policy of the Commission was not to assume the entire responalblllty along this line, that being a Dominion matter, but to fsjUt returned men In various ways and grant relief when deserving enly In such cases as were not provided for In any other way or. In other voids, to nil up the crevices left by existing organizations. PKTAII.

It waa estimated of the confined to granting Indirect aid In helping the disabled to secure adequate pensions and giving general asslstsnre in a variety of ways aa "official friend" to all Veterans and their dependents. CANTF.E.V UNO Dealing with the administration of the Canteen Fund, the board of trustees of which In British Columbia consists of lir. Justice D. A. McDonald, chairman, Lieut. Col. W. W. Foster and Lieut. Col. F A. Robertson, secretary, Col. Robertson said the only use that was being made of It at the present tlm was to relieve distress among ex-service men and their dependents when due to Illness or death and not for unemployment. This Canteen Fund consisted of the profits made from the operation of overseas canteens during the war. Though the amount allotted to British Columbia had been Just over S250.000, not more than 12.000 had so far been used. The main portion of the fund was belntr kept Intact and was Invested in bonds while a small amount waa kept on I nana w) meet contingencies that might arise.

Robertson said,. that.f cgard to the freight before any Important decision was made and strongly supports concerning the purposes ior which the -fund should be used m British Columbia - there shusild be an opportunity for full discussion on the subject by the ex-service men of the province. This was Implied In the Act and wss also In accordance with the recommendations of th Ralston Royal Commission, Oh reason why It hsd been difficult In th pest to ascertain the considered opinions of ex-service men on this subject was because the ex-service men were divided Into so ms'ny separate organisations. In View, however, of th likelihood that In a provlnelsi the near future these organizations would all be united under Provincial Commands a well ss under one Dominion Commsnd. the Trustees bad dec Wed to keep the main portion of the; fund ln tact until they could have an oppor tunlty ot discussing the matter with the' Provincial Executive ot the proposed ne united body. AMOI NT UMITMl i As, however, it wuuld probubly be severs! months before such organisation waa completed, and In the Interval there would undoubtedly be a number of cases of acute, distress amcngit the fam lllr of ex-veterans and their dependents, the Trustees felt that they would be acting according to the wishes of a great majority of the ex-service men In using a limited amount of the tund for such purpose. The Trustee had therefore agreed that until such time as they could ascertain the wishes of the es- service men of the province, there might loans still outstanding not more than -)bt ipent th, ttlltt of dtatr)PM amongst approximately $3,000 or 110.000 would be repaid. Loans on war service gratuities had been made to over 1.500 men. the total of such loans amounting to S326.150 6J, of which 1318 948.06, or over 07 per cent, had been repaid. Expenditures for purchase of blankets and clothing amounted to tl0.182.S9. These articles were either sold again at ex-soldiers end their dependents a sum cot exceeding the amount of Interest that would be accruing from the fund, and that any such us of the fond should In the meantime be limited to and kept within the recommendations r,t the Ralston Royal Commission, irri la: or i.euion Speaking of the future welfare of the a n a 4 1 . n TMrVn fVil Bfifraapf win f. coat price or given away to needy fam-' , . ..

Referring mot particularly to the work of the Commission for the past year. Col. Robertson said that, although there were stlfl quit a considerable number of cases where the families of ex -service men found themselves In distressing circumstances through no fault Of then own, the number of applicants for relief as compared with former years bar, greatly diminished. During tht pait year very Utile money had been expended for unemployment alone, the maj:r portion of the expenditures having been cm account of illness In the family, although It frequently happened that unemployment combined with Ulneaa made conditions which demanded that some financial assistance be given. ONLY TEMPOKAKY It should be remembered, however, tsld Col. Robertson, that the Commission was organized as a temporary department and Its activities must come to an end sooner or later.. The various Commissions of all the other provinces hid long ago ceased to grant financial assistance for the relief of distress, and It wss only natural that the Government ot British Columbia also should be anxious to curtail these expenditures. The tlm would never come when there would be no distress at all, but It seemed reasonable to expect that after seven years direct expenditures for relief should be greatly curtailed If not discontinued altogether, and the future ttctlvitlea of the Commission would be gtnzlatlon. said Col. Robertson, was the Canadian Legion which now had seventy branches in British Columbia ture It would be In a position to Issue 'charters tOi all Its branches. Col. I Robertson referred to th fact that a few weeks ago the Grand Army of United Veteran had decided to Join forces with th Legion and urged thai all other bodies of ex-serrks men should Join up likewise.

The chief need was tn the way of extending the system of appeals whier. waa now -both Inadequate and unsatisfactory through the fact that the Appeal Board now only had Jurisdiction to hear appeals in a limited number of -sscs. That Jurisdiction should be widened snd what th Legion was now striving fcr was to hat the recommendation of the Ralston Commission put Into effect. Ther was no complaint. Col. Robert-ion stated, of the pension scale. On th-whole the veterans were pretty well satisfied with the' Pension Act. Their chief ' grievance was against Its administra tion. "If the Act were administered tn the same spirit that It was legislated there would be little complaint." he d-clarcd. The Appeal Bosrd. he said, should be so constituted that It would be able to rule on the amount of a pension as well ss on th point as to whether or not there should b a pension. "But." concluded Col Robertaon, "If th pension 'Act was administered In the spirit Intended by tbos Jtgulators who brougtrr It Into being, there would not be even a need, for an appeal board."
