SKEENA
QUEEN
DISASTER
THE
DISASTER
of
the
Skeena
Queen
serves
to
draw
attention
to
the
lack
of
basic
facilities
at
Prince
Rupert
to
assist
in
aerial
navigation
in
and
out
of
the
port
which
is
growing
in
importance
as
an
air
centre.
The
operation
of
the
Skeena
Queen
and
her
sister
ship,
the
Haida
Queen,
had
already
been
instrumental
in
developing
considerable
airborne
traffic
in
and
out
of
Prince
Rupert.
The
business
is
growing
and
will
continue
to
expand,
this
tragedy
notwithstanding.
The
need
of
adequate
facilities
for
the
information
and
guidance
of
aircraft
travelling
this
part'
of
the
country
being
made
im-.
mediately
available
is
accentuated
by
the
disaster
which
has
occurred
and
which
might
or
might
not
have
been
prevented
had
such
facilities
as
radio
range
beam
and
marker
stations
existed
for
the
exclusive
guidance
of
properly
equipped
aircraft.
In
the
official
investigation
of
the
circumstances
of
the
Skeena
Queen
the
lack
of
such
proper
basic
aids
to
the
navigation
and
landing
of
aircraft
not
only
at
Prince
Rupert
will
probably
be
alluded
to.
It
is
to
be
hoped
that
there
will
be
no
further
delay
in
seeing
that
they
are
installed
by
the
proper
authorities
which
would
obviously
appear
to
be
those
of
the
federal
government.
The
tragedy
of
the
Skeena
Queen
may
or
may
not
have
been
directly
due
to
the
lack
of
such
facilities
the
exact
circumstances
will
be
a
matter
for
expert
and
official
determinationbut,
as
long
as
the
lack
continues,
aircraft
operating
to
and
from
Prince
Rupert
will
be
subject
to
unnecessary
risks,
particularly
in
the
seasons
of
the
year
now
approaching
when
weather
conditions
become
less
favorable.

THE
FARMERS'
STRIKE
rARMERS
of
Alberta
and
Saskat-I
chewan
have
decided
to
call
a
delivery
strike
commencing
thk
coming
Friday
because
tte
federal
government
has
not
movt
with
a
view
to
assuring
them
par
1
J
prices
for
their
products.
Such
aLievfike
might
well
prove
very
seriouit
a.
the
consuming
public
of
Canada
nd
Prince
Rupert
would
be
one
oi.'
places
to
feel
it.
There
will
be
no
doubVnd
large
measure
of
sympathy
with
tlvfc
farmers
in
their
demands.
They
have
gone
through
hard
times
in
their
day
and
now
they
feel
that
they
are
not
getting
their
fair
share
of
the
national
income.
To
see
wages
going
up
and
prices
mounting
all
around
them,
to
have
to
pay
more
for
the
things
that
they
themselves
use
has
aroused
discontent
among
them.
Naturally,
there
is
to
be
apprehension
felt
at
what
the
effects
might
be
of
a
long
continued
farmers'
strike.
Nevertheless,
many
will
agree
that
there
is
some
measure
of
justice
in
the
claims,
unsatisfactory
meeting
of
which
has
caused
them
to
decide
on
this
drastic
line
of
action.
LABOR
MANAGEMENT
AT
THE
BIRTH
of
the
post-war
world,
General
Eisenhower
wrote
the
obituary
of
war:
"This
unconditional
surrender
has
been
achieved
by
team
work;
team
work,
not
only
among
all
the
allies
participating,
but
among
all
the
services
on
land,
sea
and
air."
And
King
George
combined
the
hope
of
-
tomorrow
with
his
obituary
of
war:
"We
kept
faith
with
ourselves
anci
with
one
another.
We
kept
faith
and
unity
with
our
great
allies.
That
faith
that
unity
have
carried
us
to
victory
through
dangers
which
at
times
seemed
overwhelming.
We
shall
have
failed
If
victory
does
not
lead
to
lasting
peace,
founded
on
justice
and
established
in
goodwill."
Today,
a
year
after
its
birth,
tine
post-war
world
is
still
deep
in
the
struggle
to
breathe
and
live.
The
struggle
goes
on
in
every
land
around
the
globe,
across
Canada
and
throughout
the
United
States.
It
has
taken
on
the
hiie;
of
an
economic
battle
between
labor
and
management
in
North
America.
Compared
with
the
war
-
time
years
of
1939
to
1945,
two
vital
elements
are
missing:
Team
work
and
unity.
They
were
exemplified
in
the
production
story
in
Canada
during
the
war
years.
But
today,
labor
and
management
have
forgotten
team
work
and
unity.
