An U njustifiable Closing Down Hon. Colin Gibson, minister of national defence for air, has been talking about the future - minded policy of his department in connection with the development- of aviation in Canada not only as an arm of national defence but also from the standpoint of commercial utility and 'service in the postwar era, An example was a recent speech delivered in Toronto entitled "Air Power in Canada." The Department of National Defence for Air may have some progressive ideas about the future of aviation in Canada but they certainly do not appear to be evident here in Prince Rupert. " There is little compatability to be seen between a forward looking Royal Canadian Air Force policy ior Canada from a national standpoint and, the complete closing down, as scheduled to take place within the next few days, of the million-dollar seaplane base at Prince Rupert, a point of vital strategic importance in one of the newest and most potential parts of northwestern Canada' from many standpoints certainly as far as aviation is con- ; cerried. If there could be any more important point in Canada for the centering of military and commer- rial, aviation than Prince Rupert iti would be interesting to know where it is. If there is any air base in the country the closing down of which would seem to be injustiable it is Prince Rupert's. Of course, it is completely in'line with what appears to be a fixed policy on the part of the federal government and anything with .which it is connected to neglect and "brush-off1 this part of the cguntry. Support Civic Centre Now Prince Rupert's fine civic centre has: now been operating for over a month and its usefulness and popularity is becoming increasingly evident in many ways. Possibly, its most important function is as a gathering place for the young people of. the city who, at long last, have a place for healthful exercise and wholesome recreation in a congenial atmosphere. It is also providing a meeting place for several institutions and, as time goes on, will be I Better English I By D. C. WILLIAMS utilized to even greater extent along these lines. In these and many other ways the Civic Centre is justifying itself and fulfilling the vision which we had of it for so many long years. . Now we have the Civic Centre with all its benefits, wre can be expected to do our part in financing it. Strangely enough, the people of the city have so far.not b$en rallying in the way of membership subscriptions to the degree that might have been expected. In other words, now the time has come to pay, they are not responding. Possibly, a lot of it has1 been due to oversight rather than unwillingness which is for all of use undoubtedly an obligation. A special appeal might also be directed in this connection to sorne of the business organizations with staffs here whose residence in Prince Rupert is made the more congenial through the existence of the Civic Centre. Possibly it may need nothing more than a reminder like this that their minancial assistance as patrons would be appreciated by the Centre and would also repay these organizations themselves in benefits indirectly realized. Control of News The Premier of Saskatchewan, addressing a gathering of newspapermen in Regina this week, came out against government control of news, declaring that an independent press and independent news were essential. He voiced the complaint . that the tendency of "many newspapers was to become the voice of their owners, their news columns becoming too often the medium of editorial comment. Mr. Douglas, the head of Canada's only Socialist government, possibly may not realize that the so-called "news"paper organs of his own C.C.F. party are possibly the worst offenders when it conies to being the voices of their owners and the mixers of editorial policy and comment in coloring their news reports. As far as the editorial columns of newspapers are concerned, it would be interesting to hear whose Views might be expected to be reflected other than those of the interests who own or control them. But, as for fairness and impartiality of news columns, it must be conceded that the so-called capitalistic press of this country sets an admirable example. There is much these newspapers publish in their news columns that might conceivably be considered inimical to their own "selfish" interests and which it would be easy enough for them to suppress if they were not free, impartial and generous in news column policy.

Well, those in the catering business might be interested In this Information. An entree is a small serving of food which could be in the form of a shrimp or cheese souffle. It is served after the soup and fish and Just before the main course. Therefore, a seven course dinnertable d'hote would be hors d'oeuvre, soup, very small serving of fish (to save time the waiter could brlns the two at once, often the customer will or der soup and fLsh together), en tree (which could be anything mixed up and served in small portions), main course, dessert, fruit.
