So,

So
Good
"All's
well
that
ends
well"
we
were
going
to
say
of
the
latest
development
in
the
civic
centre
controversy
Whereby
the
Y.M.C.A.
war
services
building
here
is
turned
over
to
the
Prince
Rupert-Civic
Centre
Association.
But,
on
second
thought,
maybe
we
had
better
say
"so
far,
so
gopd."
Now
we
have
authority
to
take
the
building
over
for
our
civic
centre
use
without
prejudice
as
to
Ihe
final
arbitration
of
the
price
question.
We
are
assuming
a
heavy
community
responsibility.
It
is
to
be
hoped
we
are
prepared
to
carry
on
with
enthusiasm
equal
to
that
of
our
taking
on.
We
now
have
what
we
wanted
and
we
must
be
ready
to
take
care
of
it
and
pay
for
it
when
the
time
comes.
A
Notable
Publication
The
Vancouver
Sun
is
to
be
congratulated
upon
a
wonderful
new
publication
"Industrial
British
Columbia
1945"
which
it
has
just
issued
and
a
copy
of
which
has
been
received
at
the
Daily
News
office.
Profuse
illustrations
depict
the
varied
industries
of
the
province
and
there
is
a
wealth
of
statistical
information.
The
province's
great
war
production
effort
is
reviewed
and
the
extent
of
facilities
now
available
for
peacetime
industrial
and
business
activities
set
forward.
Prince
Rupert
is
given
an
attractively
arranged
page
with
some
excellent
new
pictures
featuring
the
waterfront
facilities.
Here
is
what
is
said
of
Prince
Rupert:
"The
port
facilities
of
Prince
Rupert,
extended
during
the
war,
are
now
equal
to
the
.finest
on
the
Pacific
Coast.
This
has
brought
Prince
Rupert,
with
fits
great
harbor,
into
the
limelight
as
a
potential
shipping
port
of
world
importance.
With
cargoes
of
lumber,
fish
and
fish
products,
mineral
ore
and
grain
readily
available,
the
port
affords
excellent
opportunities
for
more
extensive
development
and
offers
attractive
facilities
for
shipping
companies.
"The
city
and
district
holds
material
opportunities
for
investors,
workmen
and
farmers.
Served
by
the
Canadian
National
Railways
from
the
east
and
three
steamship
services
from
the
south,
Prince
Ru
pert
is
steadily
improving
its
position
as
a
strategic
port
of
Canada's
Northwest.
The
surrounding
territory
has
often
been
described
as
a
sportsman's
paradise
and
offers
game
hunting
and
sport
fishing
of
all
kinds.
-The
recently
completed
Skeena
Highway
now
links
Prince
Rupert
with
the
rest
of
Canada's
road
system.
Visitors
are
surprised
to
find
that
this
northern
port
has
no
extreme
temperatures,
but
enjoys
a
moderate
climate
the
year
around
owing
to
its
position
in
the
path
of
the
Japanese
current."

Municipal
Unity
The
organizational
meeting
this
Thursday
at
Smithers
of
northern
interior
municipalities
into
a
union
to
present
a
solid
front
when
issues
confronting
Central
B.C.
develop
is
a
definite
step
forward
for
this
part
of
the
province.
One
of
the
most
hopeful
developments
is
the
recognition
by
communities
and
organizations
contiguous
to
the
C.N.R.
that
while
community
effort
must
be
maintained
to
advance
local
issues
a
wider
field
offers
itself
and
requires
inter-community
leadership
such
as
can
be
afforded
by
municipalities
being
banded
together
in
a
common
purpose.
The
establishment
of
a
Northern
Union
of
B.C
Municipalities
is
developing
at
a
time
when

being
given

WHAT
DOES

NEED?
WILL
YOU
GIVE
YOUR
VIEWS?
There
is
much
discussion
these
days
of
problems
and
difficulties
which
face
Prince
Rupert
in
its
postwar
development
and
prosperity
awl
what
solutions
might
he
devised
towards
solving
these
problems.
Many
of
these"
problems
have
been
discussed
in
the
Daily
News
from
time
to
time
but
this
newspaper
is
anxious
to
obtain
some
new
and
constructive
ideas
and,
therefore,
we
are
inviting
our

to

the
subject

WHAT
PRINCE
RUPERT
NEEDS
TODAY?
You
are
invited
to
enunciate
what
you
consider
Prince
Rupert's
needs
and
to
write
a
concise
answer
as
to
how
best
that
need
might
be
solved.
The
articles
will
be
published
(with
or
without
the
names
of
the
authors,
according
to
wish
of
the
writers).
They
will
be
judged
impartially
on
the
primary
basis
of
value
of
subject
matter
although
conciseness,
style
and
legibility
will
also
count.
Mayor

and

have
consented
to
assist
the

in
the

There

Old
and

alike
are
asked
to

is,
