"Employers realize new workers Me" required In the textile field and are prepared to train them, paying as much as 40 cents an hour while they are learning." Skilled textile workers make from $18 to $25 a week," she said. Most employers prefer women between 18 and 40 years of age, but In the case of a skilled worker she may be much older.

Even if thousands of dollars are involved, and it might not be so many thousands at that if proper negotiations were carried out, the people of Prince Rupert and district can properly enough consider it their right to have the service maintained. The Prince Rupert Chamber of Commerce did rightfully enough last night in having its radio committee acquaint itself at once as to the exact facts of the situation in regard to the reported cutting off of all CBC network programs to Prince Rupert with a view to promoting a vigorous protest if, inconceivable as it might seem, such a move is really contemplated. It is a protest in .which every citizen of Prince Rupert should certainly join and the time to make the protest would be before the act occurs not after.

The only purpose that might be .iserved would be to provide the bereaved with the satisfaction that goes with the finding of remains of loved ones.

TORONTO, ;P) These days It's J a case of "Coax me a little bit" "'when It comes to getting Cana- dlan women back Into the Iridus-7 tries they forsook at the close of the war. The Toronto Women's DivLslon of the National Employment Service has decided to use a little psychology In luring women to employment and In the windows of Its dowtown office, workers are demonstrating to passersby how easy are the Jobs available In city factories. Demonstrations range around the textile field where In Toronto alone there are 1,800 vacancies. Equipment has ibeen borrowed from factories and women demonstrate burling and mending, one of the 50 types of Jobs open in the textile factories, In many parts of Canada. Another of occupations to be r shown Is the making of -nylon stockings. This show-window experiment cation of the circumstances of the tragedy but there would be little to be gained if the establishment of the circumstances were not attended with some factor of recurrence prevention. The question is now whether the effort to write finis to the solution of the mystery would be worth the cost entailed in writing it. ' , GOV'T CONTRACTS THE PRESENT unstable economic rTH situation of rising prices and wages it is only the most venturous of contractors who submit tenders on government public works projects. It is becoming common for m ' bids to be received on government jobs. Work that should be done to catch up for the neglect of war years continues to be relegated to the "unfinished business" file for a further indefinite time. At present it is a distinct gamble to a contractor to tender for jobs so necessary to the nation. If the government should decide to permit a wage increase or an increase in building material cost, the contract might bind him to a loss on the undertaking. ' If these jobs have to be done it is not fair to ask these men who are willing to complete the task to be put i na precarious position of loss as the only reward for their efforts. For there is a method of overcoming the chance element whenever a government contract is entered into. This'is by the inclusion of what is known as the "escalator clause." If the government would permit the use of this system in their contracts it would assure those that enter into the bargain with them that they will not suffer by any price or wage rise during the carrying out of the contract, as long, as the-rise is due to government action. Operating under the present uncertain conditions, the sanctioning of this clause would provide incentive enough for tendering of bids on public works projects. pean war bride has gone Into industry since coming to Canada.

BOX 721 Resistance Paper Circulated Under Noses of Germans By NORMAN CRD3BENS Cnntutlati Press 3tnrr Writer ST PETER PORT, Guersney ffl It took the Oerman invaders of Guersney two and a half years to catch the clandestine publisher of a typewritten underground newspaper called GUNS. By day tall, bushy -haired Frank Falls was the diligent, courteous newspaperman that everyone, Including -the German censor, liked and respected in the office ot the Guernsey. Press. At night his friendly smile turned a shade grimmer as he crept into a disused cellar beneath the composing room, and. dipping into an ostensible empty beer barrel, tuned In the BBC news from London. Then, with his notes in his pocket, he went home to work on his "book." The same night scores of mysterious carboned sheets marked' "Please destroy after reading" found their way Into Guernsey homes. One day someone was careless. A Nazi officer found a copy of GUNS (Guernsey Underground Newspaper Service) between the leaves of a library book. All Guernsey newspapermen and women were questioned. No one. not even friends and colleagues, 'uspected Frank. He was too cautious. But the nlsht came when a Nazi officer stumbled across the cellar. From within he heard faintly: "This Is the BBC news from London. . ." Paper's Staff Imprisoned Frank spent the rest of tire war years In a concentration camp at Naumburg. With him were four others who had helped to circulate GUNS. "It was hell," said Frank, now back on the Guernsey Press, his bushy hair prematurely whitened. "We worked from early till late on a meagre diet and' the lightest excuse was used to make us work harder." In spite of its grim sequel, Frank said he thoroughly en-Joyed editing GUN'S, and he laughed inwardly when the German censor in charge of the Guernsey Press remarked: "If there were more people like you, running this Island would be a happier Job." "We weren't too badly off for food curing the first two years of occupation," Frank said, "though we had no tea or coffee and only three ounces of meat a fortnight. The iblggest hardship was the loss of freedom. The whole of our front page was reserved for clever German propaganda, seemingly friendly to Britain and hinting darkly at the folly of her associations with America and Russia. "We were allowed to print all the local news we could squeeze nto the other pases but every line was censored. Advertisements appeared as usual so th? "aper's revenue did not .suffe: much." Frank said German propagandists made much of the T)iepre raid In 1942 when The Itsr had to print the headliner "Why were they all Canadians?" A reader replied: "Why not?"-and on being interrogated by. Nazi police said he remembered what tough- fighters Canadians were in the First Great War. "We weren't allowed to print that." tirniri j i u nrrri ni niiiin ijiihais i iiwlii ai.i. i a.i . ii Miuu.viniu iifi-riMiix imixiimi nuiTin t uurifiiir msK ftn sr i u r bm, mm m COASTAL CHARTER SERVICE HY SUPERMARINE FLYIN(i BOAT "'Haida Queen" - is passengers MONDAYS Vancouver to Prince Rupert Direct, TUESDAYS Prince Rupert to Vancouver via Queen Charlotte Islands. .

Of course the tests received a bulld-up--because the world never before was so Interested In one epoihal thing, a force Incalculable In Its future effects on mankind.
