DAlIA EOIT10K ttiu Saturday, August 10. 1930 TERRORS OF COAL MINING People who burn coal cannot realize what dangers the miners brave in getting out what is to most of us a household luxury and possibly a necessity. Those who have lived in a coal mining town for any length of time are bound to feel acutely what it means to have a mine explosion. There is the horrible dread, the whispering of news, the bringing up of discolored bodies, the daily funerals, the fear of the women for the future, the tendency to blame someone for carelessness, the widows and orphans and the wonderful generosity of the men and women toward their neighbors who have suffered. These are the tales that the coal tells to those who have lived through such tragedies as we heard of yesterday at Coalmont. TOLMIE FOR OTTAWA Premier Tolmie is gone to Ottawa to discuss with Premier Bennett and the other provincial premiers the problem of unemployment. It is to be hoped that he will press hard for the Peace outlet and insist that it be constructed by both of the two big railway companies -working to- gether and that incidentally they have a common outlet at Prince Rupert. 1 If work were commenced at once on railway construction it would take care of a lot of men and at the same time ;ould serve the most useful purpose that can at present be thought of. THE MORAL OF KETCHIKAN The Winnipeg Tribune has been studying the traffic problem in Ketchikan, and has seemingly come to the conclusion that that favored Alaskan town is a, happy combination of everything that is good in Utopia and Ereh-, won, the isles of the blest and the happy hunting grounds, says the Vancouver Province. And all because its traffic problem is so simple ' The Ketchikan motorist, the Tribune has discovered, is limited to 14 miles of road, a circumstance which gives the traffic cop opportunities few other towns afford. If the, erring motorist is missed on the way out, well, he will be along again shortly. In Ketchikan, too, there is an average of one car to each eight persons. So. the Tribune deduces, the pedestrian's chances in the town are quite definitely known. And the preferred speed is 14 miles per hourplenty of time to see the scenery, no dust and an opportunity for even the laggard pedestrian to hop out of the way. "Oh for a few more Ketchikans," longs the Tribune. And at the same time, Ketchikan and other Alaskan towns not greatly different so far as roads are concerned, are burning themselves up with impatience for the arrival of Premier Tolmie's Midnight Sun Highway to come with in tapping distance so that they may escape their bonds and be abie to scurry in their cars, over the great road system of the continent. And not a few British Columbia towns have similar longings. Powoll River, for instance, with not a great many more miles of road than Ketchikan. but with a great many more cars, has been agitating for roads and ferries to allow its prosperous people to motor to Vancouver. Evidently there is no satisfying human beincs. Give them the roads of a continent to play about in and they t. - - - . 1 .. 4. ' ,J 1 i 1 I 1 1 iui rui-Ks iiuu juuunuun siues ami me ununageauie sea.
