Your inspection is invited. 2 m&ft I $H e EDITORIAL Difficult Financing 5MP Shoe FOR GENTLEMEN I Family Shoe Store With half the assessed value -of the city taken off tlie taxable roll, it is evident that financing the city of Prince Rupert must be difficult. The city owns over a million and a quarter dollars worth of the land which, if held by individuals, would be paying about fifty thousand dollars a year taxes. Two large pieces of property are also held by the Dominion and provincial governments. Business and other improved property held by the city is bring in some revenue and helps to improve the financial condition of the city. It is satisfactory to know that the financial condition of the city is improving and that any improvements being made are made out of current revenue and not from bor rowing. However the city is governed during the next' few years, borrowing will be probably impossible. All improvements must be paid for from currenti revenue, s Present Situation . It is rather unfortunate that the provincial government could not have arranged for the passing of the legislation asked by the people of Prince Rupert in regard to city management. The present situation is very unsat isfactory. The local commissioner is in charge but everything he does must be referred to the non-resident commissioner who does not and, cannot understand local conditions. The city is so far removed from the capital that it is impossible to keep in close touch. The city is now solvent and, if we are not to have a city manager as promised, it would be better to return to the old mayor and council form of government, subject to the restrictions imposed and the new set-up made neces-hary by the change in bond interest payments and sinking fund payments. Wfi should very much dislike returning to the old form of administration but the present system is even worse than the old. If there is to be a commissioner, he should be a resident commissioner with all the powers of a commissioner so that citizens may feel they can go' to him with some hope of getting action on any local matter: Registration Of Japanese - - - Owing to the present feeling of distrust, it is a good fdea to have all Japanese residents in the country specially registered, more for their protection than for any other reason. There have been strained relations between the Japanese and the British for some time and, while there, has been an easing up of late, the Japanese government still declares itself to be an ally of our enemies. That in ftself is enough to make us suspicious.
