Of course, the mayor would have been remiss his duty had he gone east on any sort of business, private or otherwise, and not also visited Ottawa to do this very thing on his own initiative but to be sent officially by the council naturally gives his position as an official delegate authority and strength. We consider that the mayor has a strong case to present to Ottawa. He goes armed with a complete and detailed memorandum. Some considerable good should undoubtedly accrue from the representations that he, with the support of Mr. Hanson, will make. If between the two of them they do not get some results that are to be desired it will not be for lack of thorough, earnest and conscientious trying. As was rightly enough said by the mayor at Thursday night's meeting of the council that the most important accomplishment which the city has to achieve this year is to relieve the emergency which -has almost been reached due to its works and services having arrived at a critical position. A Socialist's Tribute . . . A prominent Socialist who has been opposed to Mr. Pattullo in season and out and has never ceased to campaign against him actively was heard to say in public Thursday night that there was something that he always admired Mr. Pattullo for that was his forthrightness and candor in expressing his views so there was no mistaking where he stood. Mr. Pattullo is somewhat eclipsed today in the political, picture to be sure but he is still the same old fighter and defender of his beliefs that he always was. He does not hesitate and he never will to defend his beloved Liberalism andthe government of which he was for so many years a forceful leader. Politically, .Mr. Pattullo may be down these days but, although he has' reached his three score and ten, he is by no means out. Nor is he admitting the possibility of his dropping out. . A bonny fighter and possibly a lone one these days is Mr. Pattullo and the most of us cannot help but affectionately admiring him for it. Looking Better For Us . The campaign in Sicily goes on surprisingly welL As a matter of fact, we may say the whole war against Italy appears to be moving on with great success if the weight and destructiveness of our attack is to be accepted as any measure. Sicily may well fall. There are some who believe that it will be in Allied hands completely within a very short time. Even with the fall of Sicily, we find it hard to look for an immediate capitulation of Italy although, of course, we would be glad if in a short time we had to look back and admit that we- guessed wrongly. We would say then that there must be something wrong in Gerftiany. Maybe we have become so used to taking the hard knocks of war, blue prospects and grim forebodings that we find it difficult to realize just how strong our side has become or that the enemy may not be so impregnable as we had believed. Certainly we have not fared so badly thus far in 1943 which as it wears on, nearly into fall now, appears definitely to have been the year of our turning' point In any case we have every right to believe that the worst is now over and that we will soon be swing ing up the slopes of victory an uphill pull that will itill require our continued will and effort. ACTIVITIES OF Y.M.C.A. AND Y.W.C.A. By DOROTHY GARBUTT The Hostess Y visitors from Terrace this week are Mr. and Mrs. Arnold Ducklirf. I wonder what sort of weather they've been having in Terrace? Two sergeants' wives have kindly consented to act as chap-erones. for the sergeants dance at the highway camp tonight. They are Mrs. Wilson and Mrs. Carr. I would like to thank them very much for this courtesy. I have never made-a point of asking the local ladies to come ut on a Saturday night as I fell this is a home night for all those so fortunate as to have a home here. Therefore, the fact that the two sergeants' ladies are plnch-hittlng, as It were, Is a great iieip. Junior hostesses will meet at the Y. I hope those who have no engagements will come out. The boys have Just repainted their mess and they say it looks elegant. Our little service wife with two kiddies and no go-cart has been looked after now thanks to the offers of the good ladles who 'phoned In. On Monday night next there will be an army unit dance at the Empress to whi:h the Junior hostesses are in i ted. YWCA chaperones from the Queen Mary Chapter of the I. O. D. E. will be In attendance. Come wind, come weather, come storms and electric light wires down we're prepared with two nice new Coleman lamps one for the YWCA ladies lounge and the other for our office. We already had one for the canteen and recreation room but now we'll be able, to see anywhere and everywhere next time the lights misbehave. The one for the ladies' lounge is very ultra a real parlor lamp with fancy shade. Next on the program for' our winter comfort is an electric heater and I think I've Just about located one.

This move. If carried out. would greatly help in paving the way to World War III. These people did not start the war. Acts of sabotage committed by them, if In truth, any were have been minute. We need in Canada good-living, industrious citizens. I believe the majority cf Japanese in Canada have proved themselves good-living and industrious and that practi cally all, If given half a chance wculd become good citizens. With regard to that part of- them, and of other nationalities the required standards. It is chiefly a matter of education ! and of equal opportunity. Cana for their country's should be willing to go more than half-way towards bringing all the various nationalities and races we have here now towards full Canadian citizenship. However, if we embark on a policy of Japan for the Japanese and the Orient for the Orientals, then why not Africa 'or the negroes, Europe for the whites, and America for the In-dlans? Transplanting whole peoples sounds very much like the Assyrian and Hltlerlan way. In Canada we have laws under .filch aliens, it convicted of certain misdemeanours, may be deported. To condemn a whole race or nationality for the wrongs committed by a few , Is against the first principles of justice and Mr. Cameron should kriow better. Let us rather utilize all our resources (manpower included) towards making Canada and the world a much happier realm for the sons -ot men, of no matter what race, color, or creed. Let Kincolith.
