As

pi

given
recently
by
the
local
press
to
certain
'actions
of
the
city
council
which
has
resulted
In
criticism
Qf
the
council
both
by
the
press
and
local
bodies,
I
have
been
instructed
to
publicize
the
following
facts
which
evidently
are
not
known
to
those
who
have
Ijeen
most
vociferous:
j
(a)
:The'
Council
granted
the
Application
of
Chin
Jon
to
reestablish
a
piggery
on
Block
39,
ectfdn
8,
Eleventh
Avenue,
having
In
mind
the
following
points:
J
1.
The
applicant
was
previously
engaged
In
this
occupation
at
this
locality
for
several
years
of
all
nations
may
load
and
unload
goods,
unaffected
by
the
country's
custom
regulations
as
long
as
the
goods
remain
ill'
the
free
port
zone.
A
United
States
department
once
gave
this
fuller
definition:
"A
free
port
is
a
segregated,
fenced
and
guarded
area
in
which
goods,
not
otherwise
prohibited
may
be
unloaded
and
stored,
subject
to
varying
restrictions
as
to
sorting,
grading,
repacking,
manipulation
and
manipulation
and
manufacture,
and
in
which
such
goods,
or
authorized
manufactures
therefrom,
may
be
reloaded
and
shipped
to
foreign
destinations,
all
without
the
imposition
of
the
customs
formalities
and
duties
applicable
to
similar
goods
entering
custom
territory."
When
the
shipment
of
such
goods
into
customs
territory
is
permitted,
they
immediately
become
subject
to
the
duties,
rules
and
regulations
prevailing.
Free
ports
now
are
in
operation
in
New
York
and
New
Orleans
in
the
United
States
where
there
are
no
comparable
regulations
to
the
Canadian
bonded
.warehouse
system
which
has
been
described
as
a
"Junior
Free
Port."
CONTROLLING
ATOM
THE
BIKINI
TESTS
suggest
I
change
in
the
structure
and
handling
of
warships,
but
do
not
plainly
say,
"Surface
craft
are
useless;
put
your
effort
and
money
into
planes."
It
is
safe
to
say
that
navies
will
go
on
being
built.
But
the
tests
have
strongly
reinforced
the
impression
that
the
atom
has
redefined
sea
power.
One
bomb
may
not
destroy
a
fleet.
But
even
one
bomb
can
so
damage
a
fleet
either
in
harbor
or
on
the
high
seas
that
dispersion
is
going
to
be
the
first
rule
of
naval
warfare.
We
may
never
again
see
armadas
such
as
that
off
Normandy
on
D-Day.
And
manifestly
overseas
invasions
are
going
to
be
increasingly
hazardous
unless
or
until
offensive
bombing
has
ended
bombing
by
the
defenders.
Even
without
the
Bikini
tests
it
was
clear
that
there
is
no
naval
defense,
as
there
is
no
military
defense,
against
the
A-bomb.
This
failure
of
defense
is
the
key
meaning
of
atomic
warfare.
It
tells
us
that
no
nation
can
fulfill
the
first
obligation
of
national
sovereignty
the
protection
of
its
citizens.
Individuals
every
nation
must
recognize
this
and
insist
on
effective
international
control
of
the
atom.
Ships
are
not
obsolete,
but
sovereignty
is.
sequently
his
property
was
in
spected
by
a
representative
of
the
Veterans'
Land
Act
with
a
view
to
deciding
whether
It
was
suitable
for
a
small
enterprise
such
as
mink
ranching.
The
Council
is
well
aware
that
both
piggeries
and
mink
farms
can
be
highly
objectionable
unless
properly
conducted,
and
it
Is
their
intention
to
see
that
any
such
projects
located
anywhere
in
the
city
conform
to
the
requirements
of
city
bylaws
and
provincial
regulations
regarding
health
and
sanitation,
all
of
which
are
rigidly
drawn
so
as
to
preclude
all
offensive
features.
In
order
to
avoid
embarrassment
to
the
School
Board,
the
settlement
which
the
Trustees
and
no
complaints
resulted
from
