This statement Is very easily proved. "2. I expect the requisition through for clothing In the next week. When the men are not working, it is not considered necessary to supply clothing right away. I naturally assumed that the men had sufficient clothing to last them at least three or four weeks after the work closed down. However, as I said before, I expect to receive an authorized requisition any mail. "3. I have no Information on this point. "4. Groceries, etc., are purchas ed from various wholesale houses. "5. From various hardware stores. "The Information supplied above la given' to you as a matter of courtesy, and Is more or less unofficial, as officials of the Department of Public Works are not supposed to publish any statements concerning the work that Is being carried out without authority from the minister. "When you are addressing your meeting, It would be well to point out to the government free boarders at Cloys h Bay Camp that the burden of the expense is upon the taxpayers of the province. There seems to be an erroneous idea that the "Government" is paying for his, and has unlimited funds. Kindly emphasise the fact that ev-?ry dollar that is being expended towards keeping these men Is taken irom the pockets of their fellow rten. in other words, the business men and the taxpayers of the province. "It has been a matter of great re-fret to me that not one single man. to the best of my knowledge, has offered to do a day's work In payment for his board and lodging. A situation like this would not have been considered possible twenty years ago. I have a perfect right to ipeak to the working man in this -train for the reason that I have earned my own living in Western Canada for forty-five years, and lave been through many hard times of stress, but have yet to take meal that I have not worked for. nd while I have the very greatest ympathy for those who are placed n this unfortunate position 'h rough no fault of their own. I iave the utmost contempt for men vho will complain about the food hey are Retting and their accom-lodatlon. when It Is provided to 'hem free, and as I said before, out f the pockets of their fellow men.

Phone MS CAPTAIN IS DEAD (Continued from Page 1) Probably none of the thousands of passengers that Capt. H. L. no-bison carried during his latter service knew that the commander had a war record that was not only praiseworthy but unique. The British Columbia coast did itself proud In providing officers for the most hazardous branches of naval work during the war. Captain B. L. Johnson, D. S. O. won his decoration In submarine work. Cap-lain A. H. Reld. of Vancouver, commanded mystery steamships ind prowled the ocean disguised as a steam tramp, in hopes thai Hun jubmarines would try to sink him. 3ther B. C. mariners took command )f Channel packets and hourly rls-ied themselves among those mine .ind sub-infested waters. But, according to officers who ere on the North Sea and who now the work that Captain Robl--on did, he stood alone among B. C. rcen In his war service. He, when lpproached on the matter refused 'o talk, but from other sources con- j Uderable has been learned. He spent many weary months tossing m the waves of the North Sea In :ommand of bedraggled sailing vessels, praying for Ocrmans to ?talk him with "tin fish." For he was in command of a class of mystery ship which few people even now know about. The British Admiralty, noted as it is for careful attention to detail, 1ld not only fit out steam tramps 'o entice the watchful Huns. They also sent out sailing ships, dis guised as gone-to-seed fishing craft it coastwise cargo carriers, but fit-'ed out with Ingeniously disguised -.nd eminently effective six-Inch suns. The duty of these sailing "mysteries" was the same as thane if the steam "Q" ships to cruise in search of and engage the undersea nirates to the death, and Inciden tally to pick up and destroy any mines they might find floating about. Trapped Submarine Two or three days after war was declared In August. 1914, Captain Roblson, then commander of the O. T. P. ship Henrlette, left his ves- el and his family and went to Eng land, paying his own fare, and en listing in a line regiment. When a call came for sailors, he stepped Into his natural profession and, as he was certified master of sail as well as steam he was finally placed in command of one of the sailing "Q" ships, but before that served In the fish carrier Doris Dan-mark as a decoy. When in command of this steamer, which was on the admiralty lists as H. M. S. Quickly, he was Instrumental in sinking one submarine in 1915. He steamed out of an English port with lines over his stern as though trawling. But the lines were attached to a British submarine which was In communication with the deck of the trawler by telephone. In those days the German subs had not developed the wholesome fear of British aggressiveness that they later showed. Roblson finally found one. He telephoned to the British sub, gave direction and distance, and then cast off. The German, seeing easy prey in reach, and knowing he could catch and sink the trawler when he wanted to, as the horizon was clear and his craft was far more speedy than Roblson's took his time about closing the hatches and doing his work of destruction. It was a very great shock to him when a torpedo exploded against his side and a British periscope popped up to see the result. In Varied Craft This was the only Huh submar ine that Captain Roblson knows actually was destroyed through his efforts, though it Is said he had hopes, and almost confidence, that he accounted for more by depth charges. He also collected quite a number of mines, and had a' surface battie in 1916 in which the German came off second best. Captain Roblson served through the war until the naval reserve was demobilized then returned to this coast and was placed in command of the ss. Prince Albert. Later he commanded larger of the company's vessels. Since moving from Prince Rupert several years ago he resided at Sascenos, Vancouver Island. First Air Pilot Olen H. Curtlss was the first person in the United States to be licensed as an air pil6t. The license was Issued June 8, 19il. PRINCE RUPERT Likes the Best!
