B.C. ,7 Em .40 ttm i . : i (Authorized as Second Class MaU, Post Office BEVIN TAKES LEAD IT IS GRATIFYING to read the forthright statement of British Foreign Secreta Ernest Bevin that; if the Big r'our foreign ministers cannot come to some basis for the 'formulation of peace treaties, the British government it; !;' will go ahead making separate pacts to bring an end to war which it should be remembered still is only in a state of suspension through armistice. - The statement of Mr. Bevin before; the British Labor Party on this subject is also timely. Possibly it may; provide the spark of leadership , that1 will bring something definite in the way of agreement at the conference of foreign ministers which is about to convene again. Certainly some sort of initiative is required. Mr. Bevin mentioned no names out it was clear to whom he was referring when he said "no one nation; is going to keep me in a state of war forever with other countries." There will be general agreement with his coment that "We cannot go on this way. It is indefensible." QUITE UNREASONABLE THE CITY COUNCIL has been in-I formed by the . federal architect, under whose department the control of the local Post Office buildings comes, that local business people and others who like to get their box mail early on mornings after trains come in cannot do so until 7:45 a.m. because the Post Office was being used f.s waiting room for the bus and the lobby could not be opened earlier Thejcity council .says that they can do nothing about it. If such is the case, it is to be supposed then that nothing can be done abot loitering in Post Office premises pt any time although signs warning against such practice have often hle " feen. By the. same argument should people persist in loitering within the lobbies, the lobbies could be dosed at any time of the day and the public further inconvenienced. TJe Post Office, as'we see it . a public utility whose primary purpose is to move the mail according to the people's needs and requirements. It should Jbe simple enough we would think, if necessary to main' tain: a reasonable postal function, for the; city to have the simple police pati-ol provided necessary to pre-ven the building being "left littered with papers and cigarette stubs." As it is now the public has to be inconvenienced in its business because no authority is willing or able to provide such a patrol for. a public service. It seems quite an unreasonable situation which could be simply enough remedied. Jt ON WATERING A LAWN ABOUT THIS TIME of the year " the man for whom watering the lawn and garden is a rite as well as a contenting pleasure begins to have his innings. From now until September he can loaf away an hour or so in the evening while seeming to be industrious, supplementing nature's contribution to the green of his lawn and the color of his garden and widening his philosophic hori-zans through contemplation. The true lawn watering enthusiast is definitely not the type who attaches the hose in a hurry, directs a blasting stream to the grass for a few minutes and then tosses it back into the cellar. Nor is he the type who uses a sprinkler and goes about things he considers more important. The real enthusiast takes at least an hour about it and scorns sprinklers. He works best if he has a garden chair or verandah sten on which to sit. There should also be a stretch . of lawn or garden well within the limit of the stream of water he controls. Larger plots involve tiresome walking about, and dragging of hose across grass, both destructive to contemplation. A deep, well-filled pipe that will last a long while, is almost a necessity. , Given these our man is almost content. But he must first adjust the nozzle to just the right spray, fine enough to provide a light fall but strong enough to reach the far border. He scorns those who cannot make up their minds and are forever whirling the nozzle from, one spray to another. And then there is the matter of the sun. Perfect conditions call for a chair facing so that the setting sun will shine over his shoulder and into the spray, dreaming .up delightful rainbows that can be moved to and fro with the easy swing of a wrist. Making your own rainbows is one of the nicest things about watering the lawn under this system. Another is shooting the water high into a tree so that it falls through the leaves, giving all the delights of cooling rain with none of its discomforts. Most important of all is the time all this affords for contemplation. Some will hold that a man lazv-enough to sit for an hour watering a awn won't think of anything use, Jul. But its our idea that some of the most satisfying thinking ever done has been done on front lawns in the cool . of evening with the music of water falling a peaceful accompaniment. take place Saturday. Mrs. Clark was the wife of the local representative of the provincial Department of Labor who is also . ominent in Junior Chamber of Commerce affairs here. WnaiDoesl3l?esfMeant?

"You have a beautiful country and, with a little promotion, you could have lots of people from the United States as, tourists," W. A. Imeson told the Daily News, Mr. Imeson, who spent the war years travelling over the globs as chief engineer in the American merchant marine, is on a Holiday, visitine his unrU. Charles Steh, at Smlthers. He sees great progress in the country since a former visit here ten years ago. "Your roads ud here aren't bad at all." Mr Impsnn riIH 'Of course, thev aren't Miner highways 'like we havp in thP States, but they aren't too bad. i drove up as far as Smlthers ten years ago, and the roads really were bad then." Mr Imeson. who made the trin in five and a half days driving ume, expects to stay at Smlthers for a few weeks tn ept in snmp fishing and possibly some hunt ing- nt arove Mr. Sleh to Prince Rupert for medical trpatmpnt The two will return to Smither. tonight AM). HAM THANKi n Editoi, Daily News: May I take this ooDortunitv wont neme donp run mi- streets is far from satisfactory. Aid. Ham shares the opinion of at least ninety percent of the motoring public here and, if that portion of Seventh Avenue East from McBride to King Eward School is an example of th pn - gineering skill and general ab ility of our hired help, something had better be done about the matter before it goes too far. ART MURRAY. ALCOHOLICS ANONYMOUS Editor, Daily News-May more power be bestowed upon this organization whose motives are based upon love-regard for unfortunate mep. The alcoholic slave must first revive his loye for himself,. regain his self respect, lust as th sinner must first open his heart ana make himself retentive before Christ will enter In. ., The foundatin of Christianity Is love and service, nm rp- Ug ous feels or creeds; although not riiiiu: Daily News: Pinning back of omenon of living and healthy people in the town of Terrace. If there were tin- same number of people in Terrafce as in Prinze Rupert spitting on and otherwise contaminating trie streets, it would be reasonable to suppose ,that Terrace dust would be equally as efficient in producing airborne infections. I must apologise, Mr. Editor, for taking up valuable space for such an cbvious explanation. Let the city council take a look at Third Avenue and I defv them to show us another city with such dirty, filthy streets. Pride alone, to say nothing 0f public health, should dictate that something ba done. , Thanking you for your courtesy, I am, R. G. LARGE.

MARVIN BAUER CHARGES OF, " "PIRACY"' BY TAXI DRIVERS. Charge- of 'piracy" among the city's taxi operators -were made public in city council Tuesday mgni. iaxi operator Joseph van Wallegham complained to council that certain other drivers were using his parking stand to get patronage. In a petition signed by several operators with taxi stands on Third and Second Avenues, coun cil was asked to put a stop to sucn unetmcal conduct. Mr. Van Wallegham complained that wunin the last three or four weeks, his business had been 'seriously hampered" by other drivers using his stand. His communication named three other operators who allegedly parked in front of his stand to grab customers meant for Mr. Van Wellegham. Council didn't know Just what could be done about it. Alderman Arnold pointed out that operators are not given ex clusive parking rights on Third Avenue and, therefore, anyonv rould pull up in front of a taxi siana. Alderman Youngs recognized the sip.ns of unfair cnmnpritinn as a result or the city being overrun" with taxis. The matter was referred to tho licencing committee with power, to get legal advice. Freedom of the press has been Ipatly bought. The first news paper issued in North Amejica, appearing fieptember 25, 1690, was suppressed before Hip .wc- ond issue could be circulated.
