Feb. 29, 1936 AN AID TO NEW SETTLERS E. T. Kenney, member for Skeena in the British Colunv bia Legislature, speaking in the House this week, sugges-ed that there should be lists of available farm lanus in the hands, of each government agent so that intending settlers could easily find out -what lands were available and what the cost would be. The present system he thought was a clumsy one. We agree with Mr. Kenney that everything possible should be done to assist land settlement in British Columbia and the first thing to do would be to get the vacant lands on partially settled districts taken up. Often there is clearing on these lands already done and in some cases buildings have been erected. If a visitor to the district could find out at once what the cost of one of these reverted farms would be there would be some prospect of securing new settlers. WORK AND WAGES It is announcer that ten thousand men at present on relief will be taken on by the railways to undertake maintenance work which has been held up for lack of funds. The government in this case will pay part of the cost of work which will be beneficial to the whole country and will help, out the railways fh their struggle to give proper service and make the roads nay their wav. It is to be honed that the government will find other means of increasing employment in different parts of the country, especially in British Columbia, and that before the year is out all able-bodied men will be profitably employed. PUBLIC OPINION STRONG FORCE Professor Harry Warren says that Britain and United States acting together could prevent war. Evidently he means that they control so many of the war supplies that their withdrawal from any country would cripple them to such an extent that they could not proceed. As it is today United States and Canada are both supplying materials of war to the belligerents in Africa. Canada has most of the world's nickel and the demand for it has incrpaspd of late and yet Canada does not supply it direct to Italy or Abyssinia. Only an aroused public opinion in Britain, United States, Canada and other supplying countries can stop the dealing in war supplies and thus discourage ngnung. 'SPORT New Metlakatlans Win Again Over Prince Rupert in Most Thrilling Game in Long Time The New Metlakatlans agafn won ovei: Prince Rupert in basketball last night. Apacked house of-hoop-fans. saw one of the most exciting games ever played in this city. The visitors were ten down with seven minutes to play when they took off their shirts and went to. work. When the smoke of battle' cleared and the fans got through shouting the Alaskans were on the. - -I. long end of a 46 to 43 count. It was a fast game right from the starting whistle with both sides doing some pretty ball handling but the Annette Island crew, was not missing any shots while the city squad had plenty of tough luck in its shooting. It was Marsden and Hayward who put the Americans ahead at half time with the score reading 24 to 21. J In the second half, the British Columbians started to get down to business and, with seven, minutes to go, had a 10-point lead; The yelling fans thought that Rupert had jthe gsfine salted away but they didn't reckon on Ronald David, and Tiny Marsden. The visitors slipped up the speed of the game a little and they had. a one-point lend with a minute to go. Then they sank another one which gave them a 46 to 43 win.

That wasi the. "fall heard, around the world" a bombshell that left key Gerry Wilson rolled over and oyer like a Japanese tumbler on. the mooth greensward beyond Valen line's Brook; while the "Miller" aced' on. "His heart refused and he shot me ouL" Wilson said while till dazed from the fall. vest of something like two million oounds sterling, hut even with all that currency Jingling, in their poc kets they found It hard to believe that the: great-hearted. "Miller,' had refused. Oddly enough, too, newsreel photos show that Golden Miller made a. perfect "four-point' landlna on the jump- that sent Jockey Wilson spinning: into, space. In the light of calmer reflection, the- most widely, accepted, explana- Uon. Is not that the- "milters? heart refused, but that he was startled and thrown off stride by the flash and. billowing bursts from "smoke bombs" clearly seen in photos of he Incident. The "bombs" were re portedly used In. a clash between rival photd companies. One con? cern had bought the exclusive rights to pictures Inside the race course, much tQi the annoyance of the other company. The "outsldt- ers," however; hit on a. scheme to get the pictures and: a. few minutes before the race they hastily brought up high platformrtowers rearing above the grandstands and started to shoot the scene from there. But the "Insiders' were prepared for just such, an emergency. When the field hove In sight they touchedi off smoke-bombs Just as the ace-hlgh favorite; Goldsn. Miller, started to take the fence. As the' winner of the 1934 'chase, the-"Miller" will' again be an odds-on favorite this year; bracketed with the 1935 winner. Reynolds-town, which set a new record for the gruelling 4 M-mlle race In nine minutes, 20 2-5 seconds. The new mark- clipped one-fifth of a second from the 1934 record established by Golden Miller. Both horses are nine years old, both Irish bred. The "Miller," according to experts, is faster between fences than Rey-noldstown, but he will have to carry the maximum weight of 175 pounds, while Reynoldstown will pack seven pounds less.
