"A monument to immortal Stalingrad, a tribute to the unbreakable spirit of the Russian people" is Mrs. Churchill's definition of the Aid to Russia Fund. "Whatever help we have given so far is only a drop in the ocean of their needs," she said. The needs of the Russian neonle are so great because they have given up everything for the front our common front. Victory in 1943 can be made more certain by adequate contributions to the Canadian Aid to Russia Fund. Sav ing me uves 01 tne wounded, feeding the starving, warming the freezing people in Russia will help to maintain the strength of that front, help to defeat the Nazis and Fascists, enemies of mankind A Beauty Parade . . . In any beauty parade, we'll bet on our New Year Wishes for happiness and good health to win the trophy as the most beautiful of all sentiments. SUNRISE BEAUTY SALON Violet Mah Cor cth and FuMon Phone Blue 943 for Appointments MAJOR 1942 EVENTS (Continued from Page One) were fortunate in having our hard working past president, William Watts elected mayor by acclamation and we were also fortunate in the election of reseponslble men and women to our council and school board. They will have many difficult problems to deal with in the forthcoming year and I ask you gentlemen to give them your full co-operation and support. "The city's financial position is satisfactory in that sinking fund requirements have been maintained and .there is no deht carry over from previous years. The quotations for Prince Rupert debentures continue to be upwards and it Is understood that the last exchange transaction was on a basis of $92. A reduction of $20,000 was made during the year in the amount owing to the provincial government under ihe Soldiers Housing scheme. Tax collections were 90 per cent of the levy, an amount equal to that collected In the previous year. The sales of city held lots were fairly heavy These are the pledges, those the slogans that guide throughout 1942 the neoule in the Soviet Union. This is the soil-it that jrives "Building permits in 1942 them the brilliant, the almost superhuman drives which a?u"0$l495'," fmred . , , x 1 with $347,848 in 1941.

In the factories, on the. farms, in the ! additions and repairs, the amount mines, on sea, land, air transport, in the Jliboratories, in hospitals and institutions, everywhere. The entire population, even the handicapped, the blind, the maimed are engaged in production to strengthen the front. Our front as well as theirs. Everyone sacrifices for the front in Paissia. Homes have no fuel, so that the factories may have power. Civilians eat less, have little clothing, do without necessities, forget about their comforts, so that the troops may be well fed, warmly clothed, fully equipped, strong to drive the enemy from the land. No one is exempt, no one wishes to be exempt from working for the front in Russia. Artists, musicians, .writers, actors, clergymen, as well as doctors, nurses, technicians, laborers and housewives. All serve devotedly at their posts, all work for victory. Everyone has a task to perform and no one stints his or her strength in its performance. Women Work Wonders . . . indicates the value of work carried out by Wartime Housing Limited. In spite of the additional housing facilities provided by this company the shortage of residences, rooms and hotel accommodation in the city is most serious but a condition, due to the shortage of materials, that cannot be Improved at the present time. Some means of discouraging the floating population is advisable. Business Situation "Sales by wholesale and retail agencies were substantially higher than in the previous year. The trend in both wholesale and retail was towards sales being made on a cash basis and, as most people are well supplied with money these days, I believe the practice well worth adopting. Traffic, passenger and freight on boats ,and on trains was on a full capacity basis ! throughout the year. Aftpr VAflrc nf Vnrrl nrnrlr rmr Everyone for the front!

They help to build roads, repair machines, deliver supplies. And also they tend the children. All this and more is needed to bring victory in 1943. Every factory, every city, every village in Russia is a fortress", and women by the side of their men are helping to defend them. For victory in 1943, the guerrilla f ichters, the Soviet "minute t men and women" are sacrificing themselves daily. Thinly clothed, underfed, they roam the dangerous forests. Armed only , with a shotgun and home-made grenades, these warriors in civilian dress operate behind the enemy lines. They destroy enemy supplies, they blast enemy troop trains, they disorganize and badger our foe. At this minute these heroic Russian people are serving us, and at any moment death will be their reward. Everything for the front! The Canadian people can have a part, an honored part, in the struggle on our Russian front by sending supplies to it. The singular devotion of the Russian people can in this way partially be rewarded by us. There is no parallel in history to the struggle now going on in Russia. Whatever we can do will hardly begin to pay our debt to those.self-sacrificing people. arrangements were made by the Corporation to operate the station and we may now turn on our radio at most any time of the day and have the privilege of listening to a good program. Before very long the power of the station will be increased and a direct wire with the all Canada system established. This Important utility marks another step in the progress of Prince Rupert. A Distinct Loss "While many things have been gained in the past year we have also lost something. We lost to Vancouver our Fisheries Experimental Station. In this loss our major industry will suffer, and we will feel the loss of the scientific men attached to the station in research work. As soon as we heard of the rumor that the station might be moved to Vancouver the matter was immediately taken up with our member, olof Hanson, and strong representations against such action taklne place Jwas made to every governmental ! department concerned but, appar ently, forces greater than our had removal plans completed before we (jould present our arguments against such move.
