Veterans of more than a score of years on coastal vessels, officers of the Princess Adelaide said that the trip was the most violent that they had ever experienced on the British Columbia coast. The gale was so strong that, when the boat docked at Port McNeill, Vancouver Island, the mooring lines broke and the Adelaide had to stand out In the stream while the remainder of her cargo for that port was unloaded. At Port Hardy, farther north. Capt. McGreachy decided to re-mam In port until the worst of the gale had passed. The vessel remained at Port Hardy for almost 12 hours, the first time, according to veteran officers, that it has been found necessary to "lay up" for so long a time on account of weather. Surprisingly, according to a passsenger, the trip over Queen Charlotte Sound was smoother than expected, probably because the vessel crossed it during a lull in the storm. The crossing or Millbank Sound was fairly rough. A strong gale was blowing when the Adelaide docked here. Union Steamships' Casslar, Capt. Lome Godfrey, remained in shelter at Massett for almost 12 hours, arriving here about 9 o'clock last night. She sailed at midnight for the south Islands on her way to Vancouver.

Herbert Morrison, British Lord President of the Council, said here it is Great Britain's earnest intention :o seek to reduce to a minimum all possible cause of misunderstanding arising in Canada from her war-induced policy of restricting the import of goods. In an address prepared for delivery before the Canadian Club, Mr. Morrison said: "I feci it was Inevitable that the policy of restricting importing goods which we felt we could do without, a policy which has been forced upon us by inexorable facts of our present adverse trading policy, should have caused some Canadian manufacturers .to be alarmed about their trade with the United Kingdom and other parts of the sterling area.
