Reflects and Reminisces paused briefly in Is-mailia, the city on the Suez Canal where violent clashes have just occurred between British patrols and Egyptian police. It was a cleaner, neater spot than 1 had expected to find. The iclatioiiship between the British in. ops and the native peoples seemed friendly, and I particularly noticed how well schooled the'soldiers appeared to be. That is, there was none of arrogance that wa.s once a feature of such military- occupations. In my brief s'av in Egypt I did not get any Impression that there was hatred of Englishmen, or westerners, as people. Every-bodv I met was kind and friendly. But I did find a trent-ndous feeling o restlesness a sort of shaking of the earth. IT SEEMED to me that the people of all the Mohammedan part of the earth were in the mood for big changes.

The Telephone Question EVERYBODY must agree on the need for better and more adequate telephone service in Prince Rupert- We all know that the present outfit is not only entirely inadequate for the demands but is antiquated, decrepit and falling apart. So there is a strong case justifying the obtaining of a new, larger and up-to-date telephone system in Prince Rupert. The city council has a new proposition for telephone replacement whereby a company would instal free of charge a temporary board providing 500 additional telephones on the undertaking that the city would purchase a new automatic system from the company in about three years. ,'It is a very interesting proposition. Yet it is very desirable that there should be some more definite idea of what the additional system would cost and 'what tthe city is letting itself in for. Before there, can be an intelligent vote on a referendum further information should be forthcoming. It would be easy enough to accept the offer which has been made by the company but, by so doing, at least a moral obligation would be incurred to go through with the rest of the deal. The city might feel itself safeguarded by the thought that it wolikl be able to turn down a money bylaw when it canaelo authorizing the cash for the payment part of jhVdeal. But it would be hardly playing ball to accept the gift and then refuse the quid pro quo whi would be at least tacitly implied. And, fur-ther,ttJiecity might well become involved from a legal standpoint. ' I Of course, the plebiscite would not commit the council to a line of action but there does not seem to be much point in even getting an expression of opinion on such an ephemeral proposition. I Certainly we need a telephone system but we should go about getting it in a businesslike way. Arid until this plebiscite can be presented in a businesslike way,, the city should withold the reference. Kiti'i's solitary rtu-eat, high i.i th? bavar.an Alps is &bouv tu be torn down.

The two world wars taught the people of the brown skinned part of the earth that they can manage some of the white man's machines just as well as can a white man. The Arab automobile drivers in Cairo, for instance, literally rush about like mad. They .seemed to me to derive an actual joy out of the feeling of speed. About all they know politically is that the white man is better off than the brown man and they do not think that such need be so. ,What has the white man gut that we haven't got they ask themseh'es.
