Juvenile Delinquency To: regard the present unhappy trend ;of youthful crime as purely a juvenile problem is to ignore the true situation, says the Salvation Army Red Shield report. Juvenile delinquency is merely the outcroppings of general lower moral standards in the places! where the resistance and control isless rigid i.e., among the immature elements of society. Blaming juvenile delinquency on the shortage of proper housing and on tile lack of play-ground supervision', on economic conditions and on the advanced (?) intelligence or smartness of the present crop of juveniles is just the evidence of the superficial thinking and moral astigmatism for which many of the problem-solvers of the present day are notorious. Juvenile delinquency is not a troubje which had developed independently of the fundamental problems of our times. It is a symptom of the low standard of morals existent. To cure it we must improve the home; life, clean up-the radio, films and literature. We must teach and practice the principles of true religion, and moral ethics for the purpose of presenting to the youth of the nation, a positive antidote to the evil now being much more persistently and persistently and perseveringly taught by so many evil agencies. True, recreation and clean entertainment will help. Good housing and attractive environment, fine schools, excellent opportunities and intelligent vocational training will all assist in developing a fine clean generation of yelling Canadians, but, there are the lesser essentials. The primary essentials are: ' " - (T) A home in which a child receives training in the principles of ' religion, where these principles are lived every day, and where moral J principles are never violated. (2) Parents with a deep moral understanding, who take time to explain and with' kindness enforce their code from the earliest years. (3) A recognition of, and membership in, the Christian Church that the" principles taught in the home can be confirmed and cultivated all through the formative years. Will there be no delinquency where these standards exist? Yes! Sometimes, evil influences from outside, so prevalent in the society will cause lapses even in such conditions, but they will be few and far between. "Train up a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it." What can we expect, when evil propensities are often fed by "best sellers" positively unclean, by movies educating in and glorifying crime, by radio which minimizes and familiarizes the family circle with the ghastly details of murder, condones immorality and adultery, jests about the moral delinquency of adults, and learned psychiatrists who make wrong-doing easy by arguing against and undermining the dictates of conscience? Royal Visit to South Africa The announcement that King George VI, Queen Elizabeth and Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret have accepted General Smuts' suggestion that they should visit South Africa early next year has been welcomed is a fresh expression of the essential unity of the nations forming the British Commonwealth. Never was there a time when the peoples of the Empire were more conscious of their common destiny. This first Royal visit to the youngest of the Dominions expresses for the people of Britain the deep sense of unity they feel with their kinsmen overseas. Now that the self-governing Dominions have the status of equality with the Mother Country the person of the King is the only tangible bond between them. The very fact that the Royal Family are united on y South African soil will symbolise more clearly than ever the fact that the King is the King of every one of His Dominions in no other sense than he is King of England. 10:10 B.C.

Now what about our City Fathers? Will they have enough revenue to carry on to keep dur will act as a mirror reflecting rhaneed cltv that wav?

They may, after an atomic shock, wake up and, still being groggy, realize that Prince j Rupert after all needs some attention. What will be the final outcome after they, come to their senses we shall have to leave to the future to decide. You may call this a dream, vice, revenues derived from such enterprises will serve us all In well-kept streets, parks, etc., and in Indirect services In everyday life. Then and then only we shall prosper. May I ask you not to misunderstand me. I am not knocking Prince Rupert, but I feel we should not pat ourselves on the back and say "well done" as we will have to admit we as Indi viduals have not lived up to our but dreams have come true and responsibilities. Nevertheless, we all It takes Is courage and fore- 1 are begnning to wake up, and sight, the spirit of 194C may prove to So much about creating Indus- be the first step ahead, tries, let us go on to the next, Let us Invest .in "Industrial issue: How to attract tourists?"

WHAT PRINCE KUI'KKT NEEDS May I suggest that Prince Rupert needs a Member of Parliament or an M.L.A. 'ho would originate a meeting of all the Members of Parliament and M. L.A.'s between Prince Rupert and Prince Albert at Jasper and lay out a program before that meeting for the organlzaUon cf a solid northern railway block and who would take that program to their respective governments and fight it through to a finish. . All of those members could make the trip on their passe. whiw the rest of us might uet .helr some other way. PAGE RIDEOUT Peace River. WHAT What does Prince Rupert need? Well, to begin with, a good climate; yet the rain Is not depressing, so we could be worse off. But all Joking aside, this city does need a good board of diiectors to boost 'trade with the Orient through our port. This would bring the eyes of the officials of our large paper companies on the possibilities of a plant here. One thing that would help in uhls endeavor would be the widespread advertising of the fact that Prince Rupert's harbor is one of the best on the North American continent. This would also help the proposed coal bunkers to be established here. Indirectly this would not only help the advancement of Prince Rupert but the whole northern Interior of British Columbia. But why talk about ihe things of the future before those of the present? Take our dry dock and shipyard which at present are almost at a standstill be cause of a lack of contracts and materials. The latter, of course, can in time be supplied and the former could have been a realization if the CNfl. had given a fair distribution of contracts and adopted a "Canada First" roiicy. Here could be set up a shipbuilding Industry that would supply work to thousands. Then there are the fishing boats which are In constant need of repair. All this Is worth Investigating, especially since the very life of Prince Rupert may depend upon it. Then there are ihe fisheries. At (present there Isn't much excepting the beam trailers. Contrary to appearances they are making it Impossible for larj?er catches. Yet, if we attend only to the present we will be rightly dubbed "short-sighted." It Is a proven fact that we will run out of fih to catch if we donl restrict the .wholesale slanhtr that is prevalent. In fact, If we would see to it we could Increase the total catch of fish by clearing salmon runs. Besides this we could build a large cannery and cold storage here and promote the presini ones to a greater extent.

There are numerous other needs such as auto canva. cold storage locners, more elaborate hotels, more recrrational frntres. But If any of Xh s L to come to pass we need better schools, a better discipline of the children, the Inculcating of a c'y pride and the desire. In ihp hearts of the young, to devote their talents to the upbuilding of a city worthy of the name of Prince Rupert. I MASTER 1 MELVEN MURPHY. Inge 15 years.) ST. PETER PORT.
