International Scene The situation in Iran as a result of Russian activity becomes daily moe challenging to the United Nations Organization as the collective instrument for the maintenance of international security and consequently world peace. The Soviet, we must reluctantly admit, seems intent on aggression to obtain its ends in that sphere by the process of power politics, or armed force, or both. Yesterday troops of Russia were within twenty miles of the .Iranian capital city of Tehran. Today there are indications that control at Tehran may be achieved by (means of a political coup. :The fact of an Iranian capitula- lion would not remove the necessity of action for the United Nations Organization. It would make it the mojre complicated and difficult. ;As the events of Austria and Czechoslovakia went in prelude to World War II so, if not checked by firm and speedy action, may events in ilran and other countries in that ara prelude another conflict of arms. ! Signs accumulate that Russia intends to go it alone. For the United Nations Organization, the first great test appears fast approaching. The world hopes against darkening omens that UNO may yet survive and that the defection of one of its most poiverful partners will not destroy th$ organization and all it mean?. These are anxious days, and we can-noi" be blind to their menacing portent. I Haze Iton-Whitehorse. ...... Road jj. , The Premier and the. government of -'British Columbia is to be reminded; of a pledge made by the Premier in J a letter to the Prince Rupert Chamber of Commerce of date. February 14 1944, that, before any decision is made on the route of a highway to effectively connect the Alaska Highway with the central interior of British Columbia, all routes, especially that from Hazelton to Whitehorse by way of the Kispiox ami Bell-Ir.ving Rivers and Telegraph Creek in the valleys immediately east of the Coast Range, would be; given the fullest consideration. ; This pledge was on various occasions reiterated by the Premier. ; While the request for impartial surveys of various routes was initiated as far back as November, 1943, and repeated promises have been made that such a survey would be undertaken, as far as can be ascertained, such surveys have not been made. ; Now it is being submitted that CFPR Radio Dial 1240 Kilocycles conditions are favorable and able for such a survey being taken. While Prince Rupert is most directly interested in the furthest west possible route for the highway to connect the northern transprovincial highway with thfe Alaska Highway, it is, however, content that the highway should be built on the route chosen the most feasible and generally serviceable by competent engineers on a factual basis. It is for this reason, therefore, deemed fitting that the request for the making of the survey of the route northwest from Hazelton as defined be now undertaken in compliance with the Premier's pledge with as little further delay as necessary. Prince Rupert rests its advocacy of the route northward from Hazelton as being the most superior of all on the following grounds: Favorable areas exist along the route for permanent settlement. It would .traverse a recognized mineral producing area with vast coal resources -and heavy water-power resources. Its cost and maintenance would be less than other routes owing to its easy grades and light snowfalls, the last mentioned being a factor which has never been given full consideration. It would lend itself the most readily to connection with the northern British Columbia coast at Prince Rupert and Stewart (throughxthe Naas valley with its great agricultural areas and mining and timber lands), as well as by lateral roads with the Alaska Panhandle at such centres as Ketchikan and Juneau. Its endorsation by the Associated Boards of Trade of Central British Columbia.. Help Red Cross Again In a campaign being commenced this t week in Prince Rupert as elsewhere in Canada renewal of membership in the Red Cross is being sought. For six years of war, ship of every sixth Canadian citizen gave the Red Cross strength to do those things for our armed forces, our prisoners-of-war, and for civilian war sufferers throughout the world which, many times, meant the difference between life and death and always brought comfort and mercy where it was most needed. . Where our membership helped to save lives in war it can save lives in peace, through the new blood transfusion service, through the out-.post hospitals on our isolated frontiers. It can bring mercy and comfort to our gallant and disabled veterans, to our crippled children. It can bring health, happiness and relief to our people generally through the society's many other humanitarian services. There is no canvass for funds this year but there is a vital need for a large and virile membership in order to do for our own people in peace what we were privileged to do for them in war.

The launching was of the "drop" variety wherein the hull, standing on trestles, was. pushed backward slightly and dropped almost straight downward as tne trestles tipped "VP?, over. This method is used in confined space, eliminating the need for greater space required for fore-and-aft launchings. Although the name of the new vessel has not yet been approved by the Department of Transport, it is expected that it will be Norma N., after the wife of the owner. Mrs. Nelson officiated at the launching ceremony. A- shortage of large logs suitable for marine float work Is holding up repair ol the Yacht Club floats which were damdged W1IAT during the heavy wind recently. One of the large float logs was broken by. the pressure of boats moored against it during the gale. The same condition Is holding up completion of the new fishermen's floats at West-view where work has been under way for several months. No one seems to be able to say when the situation will be relieved. Union steamer Venture, Ca rt.
