"The

Mr.
Lang
con
tinued,
"that
there
is
no
place
in
this
war
for
peace-time
profits
or
peace-time
prices
for
any

On

there

much

or
play
an
effective
part
after

in
solving
the
all-important
problem
of
providing
a
maximum

"Division
nf
work
among
the
People
of
Canada
is
one
of
our
most
Important
and
difficult
current
Problems,"
Mr.
Lang
said.
Since
the
beulnninff
of
the
war
thousands
had
been
trained
to
fill
new
Jobs
and
"the
manner
in
which
scores
of
thousands
of
Canadians
have
learned
how1
to
peiform
new
tasks
and
the
manner
In
which
they
nave
carried
them
on
is
a
great
tribute
to
their
intelligence,
industry
and
loyalty."
Industrial
Unrest
"The
fact
that
Industrial
unrest
in
the
form
of
disagreements,
slowdowns,
threats
of
stilkes,
and

has
been
increasing,
must
be
faced,"
said
Mr.
Lang.
"This
may
have
been
Inevitable
in
some

as

increased,
but
it
is

Local
Chamber
of'
Commerce
Hears
Of
Move
to
Cut
off
Prince
George
Further
West
the
Better,
Says
Kenny
Another
aspect
of
interior
high
way
representations
came
neiore
the
Prince
Rupert'
Chamber
ot
Commerce
at
irregular
monthly
meeting
on'
Monday"
night
with
the
presentation
of
a
memorandum
;rom
the
Vanderhoof
and
District
Board
of
Trade
suggesting
the
advantage
of
a
highway
cut-off
southward
from
Vanderhoof
to
Quesnel.
This
was
suggested
in
connection
with
the
advocacy
of
Vanderhoof
-
Omineca
highway
route
to
open
up
the
Peace
River
as
against
bullcyns
a,
new
road
more
or
less
direct
norm
irom
Prince
Rupert,
surveys
for
which
are
being
undertaken
by
the
provincial
government.
The
main
ad-
I
vantages
set
forth
on
behalf
of
the
Vanderhoof
-
Quesnel
cut-off
are
that
it
would
shorten
the
.route
to
Vanderhoof
and
would
eliminate
bridges
at
Prince
Oeoree.
The
local
Chamber
was
not
so
much
Interested
In
any
advantages
of
Vanderhoof
and
Prince
Oeorg
routes
except
as
they
.
concerned
Prince
Rupert.
The
fact
that
Van
derhoof
was
100
miles
west
of
Prince
George
was
considered
an
advantage
to
Prince
George.
A
letter
from
E.
T.
Kenney,
M.
L.
A.
for
Skeena,
could
see
no
reason
why
Prince
George
should
be
considered
as
the
only
possible
connection
point
for
a
road
through
Biltlsh
Columbia
to
Alaska.
His
view
was
that
the
further
west
the
road
could
be
brought
the
better
as
It
would
open
up
more
new
country
and
serve
more
people.
Mr.
Kenney
was
sympathetic
to
Vanderhoof
representations.
Iheo
Collart
stressed
the
import
ance
of
Prince
Rupert
keeping
persistently
busy
on
the
Peace
River
outlet
question.
H.
A.
Breen
observed
that
he
had
fortress
attack.
An
Italian
communique
broadcast
from
Rome
'
said
the
Italian
garrison
had
ignored
a
demand
to
surrender
which
was
:
perhaps
a
prelude
to
an
invasion
of
the
Island
which
lies
.midway
between
Tunisia
and
Sicily.
The
Rome
radio
said
that
leaflets
dropped
by
planes
demanded
sur
render
by
9
a.m.
Pacific
daylight
time
yesterday.
A
British
communique
from
Malta
announced
that
light
naval
forces
Sunday
night
conducted
coastal
reconnaissance
of
the
Ital
ian
Island
of
Lampedusa,
80
miles
south
of
Pantelleria
without
cas
ualties
or
damage,
losing
only
two
members
of
the
landing
party.
This,
obviously,
was
the
same
ac
tion
described
by
the
Axis
yester
day
as
the
repulse
of
a
determined
effort
by
five
companies
of
commandos
to
take
the
Island.
.Meanwhile
Allied
air
forces
shutJ
tied
across'the"
narrow
seas
to
keep
up
pounding
of
targets
in
Sardinia
and
reconnaissance
photographs
showed
that
Saturday's
raid
on
La
Spezia
naval
base
in
northwestern
Italy
had
greatly'
damaged
a
light
cruiser,
hitting
another
naval
vessel
and
heavily
damaging
naval
base
installations.
