PRINCE r.DPERT - BRITISH COLUMBIA Published Every Afternoon, Except Sunday, by Prince Rupert Daily News, Limited, Third Avenue H. F. PULLEN Managing-Editor DAILY EDITION Wonderful Achievement Tuesday, September 9, 1941. Appropriate to War Reconsecration Week is fitting to observe that two years ago, Canada's soldiers, sailors and airmen, including reserves, all together totalled a mere 08,000 officers and men whereas today, the fighting forces', including reserves, number 490,000 of all ranks. Two years ago, the Canadian Army comprised 4.500 in the Permanent Force and 55,000 in the Non-Permanent Active Militia. Today, there are 230,000 volunteers in the Canadian Army (Reserve). Single men aged 21 to 24 are now being drafted for the Canadian Active Army on Home Defence. Tvo years ago, the Royal Canadian Navy had but 3,(i00 officers and ratings and thirteen vessels. Today, the Navy has grown to more than 23,000 and 250 vessels destroyers, armed merchant cruisers, corvettes, minesweepers, patrol and anti-submarine craft. Two years ago, the Royal Canadian Air Force mustered about 5,000 of all classifications: today they number 07,000. ' Two years ago, Canada was spending less than 000,000 a day on arms. Today, the nation is spending, neany j4,uuu,uuu. inis year Canadians will put into voluntary war effort about 40 cents of every dollar earned. Two years ago, war material production was next to nothing. Today, factories from coast to coast are mobilized night and day to turn out grim weapons of war, and about one-half of all Canadians engaged in manufacture are employed on war orders. , While these two years have been mainly for catching up with the armed dictators preparing, equipping, mobilizing and training, Canada also has been in the thick of the fight. In the British Isles today are more than 100,000 Canadian soldiers sailors and airmen. Over 1,200 Canadians have figured on casualty lists; 730 of them killed in action, 195 missing, the remainder dead from natural causes. Really In War - - - These figures make us realize better than anything else that we are really in the war and that the coming year is the most serious period in the history of the country. We have been doing a great deal but we can do more yet'if we set our minds to it -therefore Reconsecration Week. In Prince Rupert we have to realize that our shipbuilding is part of our war service. Other nlarps nm. viding guns, ammunition, small arms, food, but Prince Rupert is doing its part by providing ships and fish foods. This is just as much war work as the building of planes. Hoping we shall win the war does not help much. The reai test is how much has each one done and will do towards the uesireu ena. Modern Speed .

"Today I have received a reply from Mr. Jackson which Indicates that he wculd be willing to author ize construction of one theatre there but three applications have come in and. as a rnnspmipnpp hp hae had to turn each of them down. I low any one of the applications. He also states that on August 16 one of the applicants, Julius Bal shine, wired him stating he had de cided to erect immediately a small ! theatre to accommodate the present j needs. As the value of this theatre would not exceed $10;000 a license from Mr. Jackson's' department would not be necessary. "I should be Interested In having your comments on this subject and any further information you may have. It would seem to me that a S1C.C00 theatre, unless It Involves remodelling some existing premises, would have a small capacity and might have difficulty In complying with the fire laws of British Columbia. "I should also be Interested In any comment you may care to make on the housing project that is now under way In Prince Rupert." John Dybhavn suggested that, as the Chamber had already given its views, the matter should be considered closed. The letter was accordingly filed. EH3SEL CHIROPRACTOR Stanley W. Colton D.C., Ph.C.
