Than they were removed to Nagasaki and Yokohama la Japan to work 14 a shipyard until April 1945. Thence they went to the iron mines at Oliasi where the Japanese surrender and the end of the war found them, later going hbme by way of Guam and .San Francisco. The fact of being a sergeant-njajor, Logan explained in an interview with the Daily News, made him somewhat of a "goat"' for the Japs would hold him responsible for the conduct of his men. It was for that reason, therefore, that, 01 as .he was, r was thrown Into prison at Hong Kong for three months for 'teglect f duty" In -permitting- the escape of some of his men. Incidentally, the escaped men were later picked up and snot summarily. The trial of LCSan for allowing them to escape was an absentia affair and little more than a joke as far as fairness was concerned.

What course of action the two old-line parties pursue in the federal field is another m'ter altogether. One of these days there may be a general sorting out an examination of partisan nomenclature to determine who is what. The final disposition might yield many surprises. Nothing in the foregoing is; intended to discount the belief of liberals and Progressive-Conservatives in the Dominion field that a clear line of demarcation distinguishes the competing political philosophies in certain basic particulars. We are merelv emphasizing the fact that in purely British Columbia politics no such conflict exists between the followers of Mr. Hart and the followers of Mr. Ans-comb. On the other hand, any concerted attempt to form a rigid Coalition lty would send the lukewarm ad- t.S rfl the nracnnf w u VbVilb I.

The opposition party knows that public opinion" has not changed in the meantime: but Mr. Winch and his supporters, in and out of the House, are hoping somebody will take the ball from Mr. Bennett and press for an unnecessary Coalition Party. SWIMMING SAFELY BRITISH COLUMBIA has a record of 125 or more deaths annually by drowning. Many of these occur in the course of bathing and, by taking simple and well known precautions, could be avoided. With the swimming season now on again in the current warm sunny days and those to come, some of these rules might bear repetition at this time: 1. Wait at least two hours after eating a regular meal before going swimming. 2. Stay out of water if you are over-heated. 3. Do not swim alone unless absolutely necessary.. 1. Do not test your swimming, ability by swimming far from shore unless accompanied by a boat; swim along the shoreline. 5. If you experience distress in the water, do not struggle frantically, use common sense; tread, float or swim on your back while signalling for help. 6. Never jokingly call for help from the water. 7. When ' attempting to make a water rescue use a boat, a pole, a rope or a ring buoy. Remember, a swimming rescue is a last resort even for trained life guards. 8., Learn how to perform artificial respiration and practice it eyes. In spite of this they had to keep working at manual labor and suffer beatines. Morn ing, noon and night they were fed boiled barley with vegetable tops at times, the diet for 500 men being rounded out with 12',i pounds of beef every two weeks. Logan admitted that it was a wonder how so many of them survived COO of the 921 Grenadiers who went out from Vancouver on the Awatea in October, 1911, living to come back. "Very few of us have been able to work since we came back," said Logan. "Practically all of us had beri-beri and it Is still recurring with many of us. Some of the' boys developed blindness and joint trouble is a general complaint." Logan himself Is still under Army pay and allowances while receiving continuing treatment. Speaking of C.S.M.

Man of vision, Calvert 300 years ago foresaw prosperity and growth thrqugh united effort. "Be partners and assist your neighbours," he wisely counselled his early settlers. "They are men of high esteem." Far back in the 17th century Calvert may well have envisioned Canada's rich promise as a great nation when he said, "I see the future... it is a good country. Calvert's ideals of unity have been shared by all men of vision through the centuries since Calvert's time.
