Of course, other businesses besides newspapers have to contend with rationing and quotas these days but it is easier for them than it is for us to tell their customers: "That's all there is, there isn't any more.'.' We are hopeful that such a position as far as the newspapers are concerned may never become necessary. Value of Shooting . . . A world champion pistol marksman, speaking before a local service club Wednesday, reflected on how much more comfortable a lot of people would feel these days if they were crack revolver shots. He advocated prowess in this way as a most effective means of protecting one's home in case of emergency. This is only one of many things that it might well behoove a lot of us to interest ourselves in against the possibility of what many feel might be real danger. And we should be doing more than merely thinking about it. There is a spot where every one of us might well fit into.

January 22, 1943 EDITORIAL Battle of the Atlan tic . . . While the number of announced sinkings of cargo vessels and other craft in the Atlantic shipping lanes in recent months has fallen off to a marked degree there are some who believe the true facts are being kept from the civilian population. They state also that the Nazis are receiving too many tip-offs about sailings. One authority claims that German shipyards are building at least 25 submarines a week and contrary to general belief there is no difficulty in securing crews for them. In some quarters it is reported that the Germans have at least 300 submarines at their disposal. If these figures are true there is still much to be done before the situation is under control. One bright spot in the outlook is the announcement that 750 merchant vessels, totalling 8,000,000 tons, were constructed in the United States in 1942. This compares favorably with the announced sinkings of 575 allied and neutral cargo ships during the year. However, President Roosevelt is not satisfied and asks that 15,000,000 tons of shipping be built during the year. Shipbuilders have replied that if they are given the men, materials and equipment they are ready to meet this challenge, and even surpass it. Newsprint Rationing . . . Rationing of newsprint supply has been imposed on the newspapers of Canada. The Daily News is affected like the rest of the newspapers of the country.

Young was appointed chairman of the Disaster Relief Committee early in the year. Though handicapped by the fact that no definite line of policy had as yet been laid down, particularly in iegard to co-ordination with the A. R. P. authority, Mr. Young set about his task ener-jetlcally. "To our regret Mr. Young was moved from the city in August. However, we were .most fortunate in being able to prevail on Normau Watt to assume the 'chairmanship of the Disaster Relief Committee. "It should be made known that Prince Rupert is a Red Crots sub-depot supply base for the Northern area. Large and valuable quantities of emergency supplies are now stored in the city. These are in charge of the Branch Supplies Officer. Mr. Dave Borland; and of course will be made available to any point in the district requiring them. Already we have the following stores In hand: "I mobile surgleel unit "I portable surgical unit "34 clses containing surgical i dressings, bandages, guaze, dressing pads, hospital gowns, pyjamas, sheets, towels, wash cloths, bed ; Jackets, pillow slips, etc. "I complete 25 bed' emergency hospital unit "650 blankets "31 cases women's and children's clothing. "The inventory value of this clothing alone is $3900.00. While I have no definite figures on the other items mentioned, their value must approximate ten or twelve thousand dollars. "One serious problem has been V-secure satisfactory storage space for these' supplies. We have been able to find accomodation for the Items listed above at the Court House, Hospital, Masonic Temple. ; Royal Bank, Canadian Bank of j Commerce, Savoy Hotel, and Gor-' don's Hardware.
