Prince Rupert is being asked to contribute $$12,000 something it should be willing and ready to do. In this year, 1943, we are all "up to the hilt" in war! Early Election Unlikely . . . The scent of a Dominion election this year has grown cold. A good many have been seeing premonitory signs which they considered indicated that the Government was thinking of making an early appeal to the people. The speeches of opposition leaders in the opening days of the session which, while directing criticism against thr Government's conduct of the war, took special pains to explain the party platforms, seemed to reflect the feel ing that perhaps an election was in the offing. The government has the right to call an election when it thinks the time ripe,-even though its term of office isn't nearly over in this case it isn't over until 1945. But the tone of Prime Minister W. L. Mackenzie King on gov- ernment policy seems 'to rule out even the probability of ! an election. Mr. King keeps the government's weapon of surprise in its scabbard, aiid the uncertainty to some extent remains, but there is little suggestion of an impend-ingelection in his words: "May I express the hope that we shall not fall into the error of devoting too much time to discussing tho merits of respective political platforms instead of keep- ing our thoughts centred above everything else upon the fact that today we are in the throes of the greatest struggle for survival with which any people have ever been faced."

The "Jervis Day's" action lasted but ten minutes, but that was time enough to permit almost all of the thirty-eight ships of the convoy to scatter to safety. It foiled the German in his "kill" of those hapless ships. Audacious attack, against great odds, was the prime factor in the engagement. Something else of chemical origin gave material aid. As the "Jervis Bay" closed with the pocket battleship, some of the crew dropped cylindrical objects over the stern, into the water. Almost instantly great clouds of white vapour started to rise, screening the ships of the convoy a friendly fog-screen through which they sped to safety. The cylindrical objects were "smoke floats"; they contained a chemical mixture, one of the ingredients of which was Hexa-chlorethane" a five syllabic word for a product that is made from Chlorine. Chlorine, you know, is extensively used to purify drinking water both here in our Canadian cities, and by. our troops in the field. C-I-L manufactures Chlorine in three large plants. Chlorine itself derives from another, and much more familiar chemical product Salt. So the Hexachlorethane which rendered valuable service in the "Jervis Bay" engagement comes from our old friend in the salt shaker. And Salt, or one of the many other products made from it, is essential to the production of vital war materials in metal refineries, textile plants, chemical works.
