Today Britain and France tire the best of triertds and it looks as if Germany and France would soon be clasping each others hands over the border and trying co-operation for a change. Such a change of attitude Would be a great help to them and it would be helpful to the world. If the two countries do get together and decide to bury the hatchet it will be one of the greatest international events of the era. Thrill of Progress One of the interesting features of life today is the thrill of progress that is in the air. Nearly all people who come to Prince Rupert tell of what other people are doing, how they are overcoming difficulties and how there is a genuine spirit of optimism and progress being shown everywhere. It peps one up to hear visitors talk nf What they are doing and What they expect to do. The difficulty with Prince Rupert is that the city is rather isolated. We are cut off from the rest of the world to a large extent. We do not have a sufficient number of contacts with the people in other communities. The result is that we lean inwards. We get ingrowing pains. Now that the depression is being sloughed off like a Snake sheds its skin, we must shed at the same time the feeling of aloofness and pessimism that has become almost a part of ourselves. Let us feel that Prince Rupert has a great future, that it has a wonderful destiny as the big centre of a district as large as many countries, Let us feel that We are a part of this coming growing city and that its des tiny is ours. Then if we. each do our part we shall piake good progress both mentally, spiritually and financially. Yesterday we tried to outline a good many of the ways in which we may expand as a community. Later we shall enlarge on some of them and try to make pur readers feel that the city really will become a part of a great country, the centre of an empire.

At the first meeting of the joint committee the delegations from the Presbyterian and United Churches were both very frank in , admitting that their respective congregations were experiencing great difficulty in financing, In given by P. J. Fuller, will make in- J fairness to. the third delegation il must be admitted that they did not face the same problem. As all were agteed that everything had been done to Increase the revenue, the obvious solution was to effect economies and out of this developed the idea of a temporary federation of the three churches. It would not be advisable, at this time, to make public all the details of such a proposed, federation at they will be in discussion by two of the congregations In the very near future. From Mr. Hollingworth'; letter. It would appear that the congregation of ,the First Presby terlan Church Is no longer free to discuss any problem which the Presbytery of Westminster does not care to sanction. One would think that our Protestant Churches were democratic enough to permit all cuiigieguuuns ui&cusMiig aiiu ten dering adeJstonppn, any question which WtaUycojWMrned tlielr own well being.' If IslnJefesting to speculate Upon the": course of action of, the Presbytery, of Westmlnste)' should they suddenly find themselves without ,any lay members to their congregation; ,lnv Prince Rupert. Obviously no . church can function without the support of the congregation, no matter what we may hear of the rules and regulation of the Presbyterian Church. Both writers take the stand that the proposed federation of the local chtircheS Is a backward step. There Is ho room to lay before your readers all the arguments for and against union, but It was the considered opinion of the joint committee that such a federation would result in more efficient work being done In the ' city and that real progress rather than retrenchment would be made. Finally, I take, all responsibilty for the "prernature (announcement" which appeared lri the paper of this proposed scheme, and I do not feel that any apology Is necessary. We are not trying to put anything over on any of the. churches, and the matter Is being freely discuss ed, and will be publicly discussed within the next few days. Indeed It would almost seem fortunate that something was printed if iti.
