I I THE BIG WAREHOUSE THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT, through 'tHe War Assets Corporation, is to be congratulated on adopting the policy, in its disposal, of encouraging the great American warehouse here to be taken over for use for industrial purposes rather than for demolition. This should be very gratifying to Prince Rupert people who will read in the Daily News today the interesting news that no less than five concerns are already angling for the building to put it to1 industrial use. Meantime, tenders are being called and the official invitation for bids will be published in due course. Tied in with the ocean dock, diesel power house and administration building, we may be justified in definitely hoping that the property which the Americans left here may be the basis site for a major industry conveniently situated on the Prince Rupert waterfront. It looks interesting indeed and we will anticipate further developments with optimism. WORKERS WORST LOSERS UNCERTAIN labor conditions arising put of demands for wage increases from workers who would be given employment may make it necessary for an important Victoria shipbuilding, concern to forego acceptance of important contracts for shipbuilding which would keep the yard and its workers employed for more than a year. Any comment on the matter may not necessaiily be construed as critical of the workers who are demanding wage increases but it may be reasonably suggested that such demands as these should always be kept within the most due of bounds so as not to create conditions where it would be better for employers to keep their plants idle than to risk losses which would be involved if wages were paid that would make industrial activity unprofitable. In such cases it is the potential workers themselves who, through unemployment, are the most serious losers. Prolonged stoppages of work, no matter how or why they may be started, may well cause more suffering and hardship to the workers than to the employers who, in many cases, can sit back in idleness and wait it out with no undue suffering. It is the workers and the public as a whole that suffer more from long strikes than do the captains of industry. It is all the more reason why there should be the most serious of consideration before strikes or walkouts are precipitated. FRANCE PLAYS SAFE ALTHOUGH the 'rightists have made no sweeping victory and, indeed, as the strongest party numerically in seats, can form no more than a compromise government, the result of the general election in France the first since 'the war shows a definite tendency from the right and, therefore, may be seen by some as a trend of the times. Indeed, there may be difficult days ahead immediately in the resolving of French political affairs. Possibly as France feels so does the rest of the world. The old straight capitalistic control has fallen into disfavor owing to its failure to meet the situation in these changing times. The people, however, are disinclined to a full turn to the left. There must be compromise and, by middle-of-the-road means, the perplexing problems both national and international will probably best be met. YACHT CLUB TO TAKE PART IN PORT DAY GALA Prince Rupert Yacht Club will be host to visiting yachts and cruisers on Port.Day', August 22. when it is hoped, vessels from Ketchikan will be present.
