Editor, Daily News. 1 j It was gratifying to see from ; "The Carpenter's" letter to the ! emtar tnat he had read my ser-J mon of jrt Saturday and that l he agreeicLwith its main points. J There are two statements in his i letter to-which I wish to reply. J First, I did not say that the question of whether or not Chris-i tianity was reactionary could be j decided by appealing to anyone'3 i "personal, reaction thereto". ! Secondly, "The Carpenter" claims that'Jesus did not revise Jhe. Old Testament. The root meaning of "revise" is "to see J again." If Christianity is not a '.revision of' the Old Testament jthen the word has changed its 'meaning. Let me quote Just one , example. Exodus 21 :22 and the verses following enunciate the i law of level measure and declare ; that life shall be given for life, '"eye for, eye, tooth for tooth" ;and so on. Our Lord revises this ; and commands his followers not to resist evil, not to seek for 'even-handed revenge, but to jturn the other cheek. Surely to xee that the Law requires such I conduct for its fulfillment Is to jee it with new vision or to .revise it. . ? R. A. WILSON.

FACT that a Victoria boat- ' building establishment has been ;abie to secure contracts for the ibuilding of a number of pleasure 'type craft for lake resorts in the Istate of Wyoming is an indication !of.. the .diversity of work available for the shipbuilders these days. It suggests the possibilities that might be available for yards even as far removed as Prince Rupert if they could be adapted to modern require-rhents and demands. !! ( . jlilE DRY DOCK j:A:STCto THE DRY DOCK, Mr. ;M Vaushan, the president of the SrsjilwayV'took the wind out our sails lot his recent visit as to what might IJbe. expected in its future function at least as far as Canadian National Railways was concerned, giving no ,hope of the company using it for other than a repair yard. In spite j of that; however, we cannot bring ourselves to believe that there is no j chance for anything better at the i dry dpek than the present state of al-impst complete inactivity now ex-! isting there. '' In fact, we have no excuse for accepting such a situation. It is up ' tcr us, the people of Prince Rupert, j to- keep agitating for a useful em- ployment of the plant. If we do not, j it js quite evident that no one else ? will. I LETTERBOX WE GET MORE SUGAR THREE MORE POUNDS of sugar for each Canadian for the rest of this year figures out at about one-third of an ounce a day for each of us. That is not a great deal when we come to remember how lavish we used to be with the sweetening material in the old days before the war. Still it allows us to make our coffee a little sweeter or to heap a little more on our cereal or dessert 'and it is the first step towards a further easing. Next thing we will be hoping for the"day when our butter will become a little more generously available too. In the meantime, that might not be so easy but it will come in time. Maybe by a year from now the supplies of these two goods, the shortage of which is about the only shortage we have noticed to any extent while the rest of the world was going so hungry will be nearly back again to the old normal supply unless something unforeseen happens in the meantime. LIVING OFF GOVERNMENT THE EXTRAORDINARY SIZE of our Federal Government payroll is shown in figures just issued at Ottawa. The Government, m March last, was directly employing 147,073 persons in addition to 105,000 employees in the Canadian National Railways; more than 1,000 in the TransCanada Airways; about 1,000 in the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation; and 1,200 in the Bank of Canada, a grand total of about 255,-273, In other words, about one in fifty persons in our entire population, including children, is now in the employ of the central government. Add to these the employees of provincial and municipal governments and it is evident that a surprisingly high fraction of the Canadian people now work for and are supported by the state. O.C. ISLANDS SCENE OFMTLE Campaign on Between Sawflies And Hemlock 'Parasites About 20.000 parasites, effective in combating the hemlock sawfly which is attacking the forests of the Queen Charlotte Islands, have been imported from Belleville, Ontario, by the Dominion Governmentfj. tree insect expert at Victoria. The parasites have been flown in cold storage from Ontario and released in the hemlock forests on Queen Charlotte Islands. The hemlock sawfly is a relatively new pest in the Queen Charlotte forests. So far authorities don't know if it presages a general infestation, but they believe the parasite may control it.

Zalinski docked in Prince Rupert again yesterday, this time engaged in more peaceful "commercial pursuit. The 3,500-ton Zalinski Tuesday unloaded 11 cars of frozen fish destined for rail shipment" to we eastern unuea stales from Alaska. Chartered for the southbound voyage by Northland Transportation Co., the vessel will return to her army duties on the completion of the trip. Master of the Zalinski Is Capt. J N. Zardis, a rotund and friendly native of Crete, who has been in the American shipping service for the last 25 years. Most of his time was spent on ihe east coast until the outbreak of war, then he was ordered to the United States-Alaska service where he has been ever since. Capt. Zardis said that in spite of the fact that he sailed Aleutian waters all during the war, he never had any brushes with the Japanese. "Everything was quite normal," he said, "except for the blackout and an encounter uith a Japanese bomb balloon." This balloon, strangely enough, was sighted by the Zalinski just off Cape St. James at the south end of the Queen Charlottes. "At first we thought It was some sort of patrol, but It kep floating aimlessly up and down, and finally we decided it was a Jap balloon," he said. "We fired tracer bullets at it unUl it exploded and sank burning into the sea." When he told the American naval authorities about the incident later, he was asked why he did not make an effort to sal vage the balloon. "I told them I wasn't going to endanger my ship Just to salvaga a ballcon for them to look at," he commented. '; Cant. ZgrdLs has a softfpot in his heart for the Soyal Canadian Nayy, which went otft'of its vtpv to iuide him through1 Dixon entrance on his first trip to Prince Rupert during the' war. j "We went through the en-. trance at night and the weather i was so bad that there was no vlsi-ibHiry. I felt pretty 'scared about bringing my ship through those waters because of the currents and rocks, but a navy patrol ves-sI came out and guided me as ! far as T rial Island, where they stood by until a pilot came out from Prince Rupert.; The Zalinski Is operated as a surrnly ship for the American Army in Alaska, and has refrigerated holds between decks, and dry cargo space in the lower hold1?.
