DAILY EDITION Good War News . . . l ake Care of Cold Tuesday, January 26, 1943 EDITORIAL Good news continues to come in from all the battle fronts. There seems to be no question now but that the tide has turned in our favor. Whether or not we will be able to sweep on to an unqualified victory in 1943 is still a matter of speculation. The number of those who believe that such a victory is possible this year appears to be increasing As we have already suggested, it might not be wise to pin our hopes too firmly on a victorious peace this year although we may not be mistaken in assuming that such a victory will be well in sight. There would seem, however, to be a lot yet to lie done before our enemies are effectively and finally frustrated arid we may realistically anticipate tha't there arc harder' tasks and greater difficulties yet to come. We would be foolish to think that Hitler and Hirohito will t be so readily vanquished as has been Mussolini. Both, it is reasonable to assume, still have plenty of fighting power left, notwithstanding reports of flagging civil-inn morale. The Axis nations may not be. the only ones that are getting war weary. We must guard against over-optimism which leads to carelessness. And who would have ever thought that one day Old Glory would fly from the topmost point of our own Acropolis Hill? Women in A.R.P. . . . In Britain women play a very prominent part in the AiR-.P.j releasing men for more active duties in the army. Some discussion has arisen here as to the merits of the A.R.P. and the reserves' as far as local men are concerned. For quite a number of men it has come to a point of choosing between reserve and A.R.P. There should by this time be few men here who are not enrolled in one or the other'. It has been suggested that the women may be quite as- capable as the men in carrying out some wardens' duties. Indeed, some have , already expressed their willingness of doing so but there seems to be a hesitancy about coming forward. Once the women do take hold in the A.R.P. there will, doubtless, be quite a rush, no doubt that there is a considerable amount of A.R.P. work which the women could do equally as well as the men. Even the blizzard is to be preferred to what we had last week; What do you say? Steel Strike Issues . . . Every Canadian must hope that .there will be early success in bringing stoppage of work in the steel mills to ah end. No matter what the causes of the dispute mav be, it must be obvious to everyone, even to the strikers themselves, that in the midst of a war for survival the phrase is not an exaggerated one it is categorically imperative upon every man, and most particularly tho?e ir war industry, to keep on the job. This statement has the authority behind it of A. R. Mosher, president of the Canadian Congress of Labor, with which the Steelwork-ers' union is affiliated. In his address to the- Congress last September he used these words: "In Hamilton last year ... I said that if it were not for the war we mitrht iustifiahlv disposal to enforce our just demands upon employers . . . I Was nevertheless firmly convinced that the workers should realize the necessity of avoiding industrial strife, particularly in those industries which were essential to the successful prosecution of the war. "It is more important; in my opinion," I said, "to defeat Hitler and his' gangsters than to bring the most tyranncal and reacton-ary employer in Canada to his knees. Action against him i can wait, but Hitler won't " j The recent cold spell has, apparently been conducive to' a round of colds, more or less severe and some resemb-lmg what is commonly regarded as influenza. There are pimple arid well known means which most people know of warding off colds and allaying them before they become severe. In any case, they certainly should not be neglected, particularly at times like this when the medical men already have almost more than they are able to contend wth.

CONCERT IS FINE Grenadiers Stage Entertaining Variety Show Sunday Night By DOROTHY GARBUTT i Music and merriment ormed the background of a really first class shr&w given for the troops by the troofcs Sunday night at the Capitol Theatre. Personnel of the Grenadiers,, disguised as 'The Muske? Merrymakers." went into a variety of vaudeville acts with gusto and the whole affair wis cleverly supervised by Percy Boulton. Y.M.CA. supervisor with the WlnnlDei urenadiers. There were so many acts between the opening number and the Impressive trooping of the colors at the end that I could never begin to menlSn them all except to say that they all were up to a hi.?h standard of excellence. So if the performers will be understanding I will pick out a Jew whose names I happened to remember. There was was Lance Corporal Sigurdsdn who played "The West a Nest -ami You." on a Jmgle, a very difficult musical feat. Then the Isidore family mother, father and winsome little Miss Isidore contributed with saxaphone. piano and recitations. Corporal Bus accompan ied by Mrs. Black played most beautifully on the violin. And to paraphrase a current song( the hit of the evening was when out they skipped who? the Lulu Sisters, a quintette of delovie Impersonated by Sergeants Laskta. Crawford, Vas. Davidson and Sutton and Lulu the Hula dancer herself, none other than Staff Sergeant Van Mail, all of him and In oerson and what a person. Their act Just about brought down a house utterly charmed by thei. grace", their verve, their abandon. Credit for the direction goes tc Sergeants Roberts and Laskin who worked hard thinking up the acts and forming them into a harmonious whole. Ceitalnly the troops ate It up. This program will be to large extent repeated next Sunday night for the benefit of the Aid to Russis fund. . FOR QUICK RRSITTc Ty NEWS WANT ADD.

Jim Corlette is down again from the far flung and with a smile as wide as his genial face c?.n Letter Box MOKE THAN VICTORY BONDS' Editor, Dally News: Now that the: year 1943 is under way, let's all .get together and double our war efforts. The peopb of Prince Rupert arid the boys of the various types of war work have done very well in the past in the buying of war bonds. We all feel mighty proud of It but It is going to take more than war bonds to win 'the war. Now what's the us of loaning the government money for the war effort If we are not going to see that the government gets the full benefit for the money we have loaned them? If a man loans the government $100 and the government pays It back to him in wages in one period and that man or woman is a slacker on the Job (maybe It's no fault of theirs that they can't do the work they would like to do) that money is lost and the more money that's lost the more the government needs. So I say let's get out and help to our utmost to help the government get the full labor value of the money we have loaned them. Doht sit back and think everything Is all right because you have bought a Victory Bond. It's the value your bond Is worth a'ftef the government has spent it. It might seem funny to some people. It's like loaning a fellow money- and working like "heck" for him so he can use It and benefit himself but that's not the case with war bonds. The government is the people and we are the people. Getting the most out of war bonds Is a big benefit to ourselves. The other way Is Just like one cutting his own throat.
