Ilsley, minister of finance, has addressed a letter to the people of Canada which we feel justifies, repetition in these columns. It is as follows: I "I wish it were possible for me to speak to you per- today. It is so important that the least I can do is to re-.iternoon- And no matter how we may object personally to the taxes, the fact remains that Ave would rather have Ilsley imposing them that Hitler or Hirohito. . Taking Care of House . . . With building materials becoming scarcer and all available manpower required for war production, home owners will be helping themselves and the nation by conserving existing properties and avoiding the necessity for new construction. Housing accommodation is needed for the great influx of war workers to industrial centres and all available houses should be properly repaired and made habitable. Five points to be considered if the house is to be kept in good condition follow: (1) House exteriors should be painted regularly in order to protect the wood from the elements. Houses should be painted only in dry weather and when the temperature is above freezing. (2) Loose shingles should be-replaced as soon as thev are noticed. Damage to the inside of the house will be minimized and the roof will last much longer. It is advisable to have the roof shingles checked from time to time before actual leaks appear. (3) Eavestroughs and down spouts, cleaned out and painted, will wear longer and won't rust as readily as those in which leaves and other substances are allowed to accumulate. (4) All metaMvork, inside and outside the house, should be well painted to prevent wear from rust and corrosion. Metal grills and railings are things that cannot be replaced. (5) Heat is lost through cracks around windows and doors. These cracks should be sealed by caulking or weather stripping. Thekhouse in Prince Rupert, like elsewhere, is becoming an increasingly precious possession. Letter Box WARTIME HOUSING Editor.

But make no mistake we have reached the point where such lending must be continued and increased at the price of real sacrifice. "Many of us may find the first burden of the new taxes less than we expected. But many will still find them a bitter trial. I know that: But I also know that the al-ernatives are far grimmer. "The new taxes, including the compulsory savings feature, plus all the voluntary savings we can possibly lend are a first charge upon our income." NOTICE W. L. Pet.
