It is an example that might well be emulated by managements and employee organizations throughout the country. Assuming, as it doubtless will be, that the agreement which has been arrived at will be approved by the National War Labor Board, the wage increase will go smoothly into effect without any time having been lost, no ill-feelings engendered both sides in the negotiations being happy and the long-suffering public being subjected to no anxiety or inconvenience. The management of the ' Canadian; National Railways and the leaders of the workers are to be congratulated on the spirit of mutual understanding and co-operation which has brought about such a gratifying conclusion. KEEPING IT CLEAN THOSE RESPONSIBLE for the di- rection of the fine civic centre building here, which has been so much in the limelight during the past week owing to the centering thereon of the annual carnival in its'benef it,' are to be congratulated on the meti- ' culojis manner in which the premises have, been conducted. After all, it is largely intended for the benefit of the youth of the city through providing them with a venue which shall at all times be strictly and unequivocally wholesome. We often heard in the past that there was no place in Prince Rupert for the young folk except environments not the best for jnipressionate youth. The civic centre is now admirably filling the need for such a healthful venue and the jfact that it is such is the insistence of its directorate that no queslionable practices should be allowed to creep in under any consideration for instance that liquor should be strictly ruled out of the building. Once any diversion should be lnade, the Civic Centre and its purpose would deteriorate and it would not be long before it would lose;the unanimous backing that it now-enjoys. As long as the rules are strictly adhered to, and no exceptions are madp, even though it might seem difficult at times, the high standard of the place will at least be retained. Oncq it lost that high standard and any precedents were made, there woufrt be unending difficulties. i UNEASINESS THERE IS NO REASON to try to hide the fact that America is uneasy; about her relations with Russia, $ays the Ketchikan Chronicle in applying, the present international situation to local implications and questioning the wisdom of abandoning defences at Prince Rupert and elsewhere in this defence sphere. The inevitable showdown between the two big surviving powers of World War II may be close at hand. Excessive sun can cause sunstroke. HAIRLINE It Is well to wear, some Scientific sort of head covering while exposed weights to the direct rays of the thousandth sun for any length of time, particularly measure those who are thinly one thousand thatched on top. Inch. If the showdown results in war, the world eventually may see the emergence of only one major power and that power could take the lead in establishing a planetary system of peace according to its own rules and beliefs. Not for, nothing was the trip of the house military committee to Alaska or its statement at Anchorage Saturday that "there must never be a Pearl Harbor attack from the north." That statement was given to the press for the express purpose of impressing Russia with the fact that we are watching her and that we-are arming Alaska to be prepared for any eventuality. The Chronicle already had reported earlier this summer1 from Anchorage that fear of Russia had prompted the expansion of some military bases in interior Alaska. Delegate Bo"b Bartlett confirmed this fear in his recent visit here with members of congress. We heard uneasiness in Canada when we were in central British Columbia 10 days ago and we learned of some preparedness steps being, taken there. We wonder at the wisdom of tearing down those expensive port installations of the U.S. army at Prince Rupert or of destroying the harbor defenses at Stewart, Sitka, Dutch Harbor and elsewhere. It should not be forgotten by our military leaders that Russian ships stopped in most of Alaska's ports during the war and that the Soviets probably have the entire territory well mapped. They sailed through its waters and flew oyer its hinterlands. They knew of the "secret" base we were building at Teller, ostensibly as defense against them. They have used most of our main airports. These are some of the factors the military affairs committee should weigh in making recommendations for Alaska, defenses. It must be remembered, too, that the Russians now hold the Kurile islands in the far northern Pacific, thanks to F.D.R.'s secret Big Three generosity. , America learned the bitter lesson of appeasement in dealing with the nazis and fascists. She cannot afford to appease Moscow as she did Berlin, Tokyo and Rome. But to speak with a firm voice she must be prepared for preparedness is a weapon of diplomacy that the Russians seem to understand. H H f QUITTING THE EASIEST thing in the world I is just to quit. Anybody can do that. Quitters are found everywhere. Lindbergh wasn't a quitter, that's why he flew from New York to Paris. The picture that John saw of the redeemed wearing the white robes and walking the streets of heaven were not quitters. They had, tribulations a plenty, but they came' up hrough them. They did. not quit, ,they stayed put, and they arrived. Remember, good people, this will all end some day. You are going to die, there will be a time when the shades will be drawn in your room, and people will tread softly, there will be scent of roses, the undertaker will drive up with his funeral car, the preacher will be called upon to console your family, the judgment will be awaiting you. and you will have to give an account of the deeds done in the body. Simp-lv to stand before the judge and say: "There was a hypocrite down on earth, and a dishonest man who cheated me ; he belonged to the same church I did, I couldn't stand him, therefore I quit," will be of no avail. You had better spend a little time with the elect, in the service of God and in the worship of the church, although there may be a few rascals around, than to quit, turn away from the church and Jesus Christ, and then have to spend eternity in the presence of a whole neighborhood of rascals!

LETTERBOX Editor, Dally News, The bslief of Mr. Vaushan that It would cost 25 percent more o' build a ship here Is as erroneous as the railway policy in general. It must be simply guesslris, otherwise such a conclusion could not be reached. I was work ing as an employee at the dry dock for quite some time' and found everyone from the high est officers to the most common laborer to be efficient and honest men. Mr. Vaughan let us know that he was willing to spend a dollar if he could be sure of a dollar in return. .That being the case he should start building that part of the C.N.R. that would b? an outlet for the Peace River and which is absolutely necessary to make this part of the C.N.R: a nayln? preposition. Instead of lamely retreating when faced with postwar difficulties, this road construction should-have tippn stnrtrd as soon as the war was over.
