A
Valuable
Picture
...
Developing
many
angles
ol
secret
service
and
espionage
into
an
intriguing
story
which
seems
to
parallel
remarkably
the
recent
Dieppe
raid
on
the
continent
although
the
production
is
said
to
have
actually
antedated
that
event,
"Next
of
Kin,"
a
talking
picture
document
of
outstandingly
instructive
character
with
'particular
bearing
on
the
subject
of
security
and
importance
of
restraint
in
talking
of
military
matters,
has
been
shown
before
the
forces
in
this
area
during
the
past
week
or
so.
The
editor
of
this
newspaper
had
the
privilege
of
seeing
the
picture
and
was
deeply
impressed
personally.
Briefly
summed
up,
the
picture
shows
how
an
important
surprise
raid
on
an
-enemy-held
point
was
successfully
carried
out
as
far
as
achievement
was
concerned
but
with
unusually
and
,
unexpectedly
heavy
casualties
due
to
somebody
or
a
series
of
somebodies
having
talked
unwittingly
in
the
presence
of
enemy
agents.
The
troops
were
shown
the
picture
but
it
is
one
which
would
be
of
enual
value
in
being
shown
to
the
public.
As
a
matter
of
fact
much
of
the
"talking"
in
this
story
was
done
by
civilians.
We
would
suggest
that
no
local
technicalities
should
be
allowed
to
prevent
the
early
and
general
showing
of
this
picture
to
the
civilian
public
even
if
there
are
a
few
harmless
swear
words
in
it.
Pictures
such
as
"Next
of
Kin"
should
be
shown
generally
and
often.
Security

On
the
basis
of
the
usual
past
procedure
of
redistribution
of
seats
in
Canada's
House
of
Commons
on
bais
of
the
latest
census
figures,
Manitoba
and
Saskatchewan
lose
three
and
four
seats
respectively,
effective
in
the
next
federal
elections.
In
the
latest
decennial
census,
Canada's
total
population
had
reached
11,505,000,
but
Manitoba's
population
in
those
ten
years
had
increased
only
by
about
22,000
and
baskatchewan
s
figure
had
decreased
by
34,000.
Under
constitutional
operations,
the
equitable
representation
of
the
electorate
in
Parliament
is
based
on
the
governing
factor
that
Quebec,
with
a
fixed
parliamentary
represen-tation
of
65,
determines
the
unit
of
proportional
electoral
representation
for
the
others
so
that
the
total
or
individual
membership
in
Parliament
may
alter
after
each
decennial
census.
Thus,
in
1872
the
total
membership
was
206
and
now
it
is
245,
with
the
electoral
unit
now
being
ooo

ordinarily
it
would
be
only

on
this
basis.
A
parliamentary
committee

Ui
cuiisiuuencies
or
units
ot
representation
and
an
Act
of
Parliament
gives
effect
to
this-operation
in
the
next
general
election
though
the
present
Parliament
need
not
legally
be
dissolved
for
another
two
years.
In
the
past
controversies
and
disappointments
have
often
marked
these
decisions
or
actions.
Today,
the
possibility
of
reduction
of
representation
from
Manitoba
and
baskatchewan
is
causing
much
more
concern,
especially
among
Western
backbenchers
because,
it
is
claimed
exceptional
circumstances
prevailed
in
the
last
decade
to
influence
the
results
of
the
latest
census.
For
a
long
time
it
has
been
sought
to
secure
equitable
representation
of
the
electorate
in
the
House
of
Commons.
It
has
been
no
problem
in
the
Senate
because
that
body
is
not
concerned
with
the
popular
vote
nor
even
with
sectional
representation
since
the
British
North
America
Act
of
1867
assigned
24
members
to
the
three
Maritime
Provinces,
24
each
to
Quebec
and
Ontario,
and
24
to
the
four
-Western
Provinces,
making
06
members.
But
it
has
been
a
different
story
in
the
House
of
Commons
and
it
has
never
reallv
ceased
to
ve
morp
so
now
than
at
any
previous
period
of
our
history.
Quebec

New
Brunswick
and
Prince
Edward
Island
have
their

members

since
a
constitutional
amendment
allows
them
to'
have
no
fewer

than
in

Senate

of

LETTERBOX
KITWANGA'S
KErLY
Editor,
Daily
News:
I
wish
to
reply
to
the
remarks
of
Jim
Dane
of
Terrace
who,
according
to
the
Dally
News
of
March
13,
thinks
the
girls
of
the
Indian
schools
are
using
too
much
make-up
and
express,
surprise
that
an
old
Indian
chief
should
be
living
in
a
slab
housj
just
be
low
Terrace.
Mr.
Dane
may
be
surprised
to
see
an
Indian
living
in
a
slab
house
with
a
bare
floor
but
I
am
not.
That's
Just
the
way
our
grand
fathers
and
greatgrandfathers
used
to
live
since
the
very
ancient
days
long
before
Jim
Dane
ever
dreamed
of
coming
into
this
part
of
the
good
country
of
Skeena
and
helping
himself
to
the
locating
of
a
home
on
the
ground
and
soil
of
an
ancient
Indian
chief.
I
would
like
to
say
that
the
Indian
way
of
living
in
open
houses
and
open
fires
was
the
healthiest
way
of
living
as
were
their
ways
of
providing
themselves
with
wild
fresh
meat
and
fish.
Since.
-Jim
Dane
and
such
people
brought
In
their
chickens
and
hens,
which
are
scavengers,
and
we
eat
the
eggs
the
disease
of
tuberculosis
has
been
greatly
spread.
I
If
any
one
can
assure
me
of
a
healthier
way
of
living
than
that'
of
the
ancient
way
of
the
Indians
j
is
I'll
be
glad
to
learn
of
it.
I
Those
who
may
look
down
on
the
poor
Indian
and
make
remarks'
about
their
make-up,
etc.,
would
do
well
to
remember
that
they
are
on
and
making
their
living
from
the
good
soil
of
the
same
Indian
chiefs.
