I - "Olf RATS AND MEN" OUt ofjsthe little-known battles in UNftR'A-s war on famine and disease in Europe is the fight against the bit. The weapons are poisons, smolje cartridges, deadly gases and trapfc The principal battlefields are Yugoslavia, Greece, the Dodecanese Islands, Italy and Poland. The general are UNRRA health and agricultural experts assisted by corps of local recruits. According to these experts, man and! the rat have essentially the same diet - and so are in constant competition for food, especially during periods of famine. They also sharp several important diseases in comjnon.' ' Rats carry the bubonic plague flea, the typhus louse and the serins responsible for spirochete jaundice all exceptionally virulent among, human beings. A healthy rat eats;' befouls or wastes more than half; its own weight in food daily. On arms each one will eat at least two dollars worth ,of grain per year and jdestroy an additional 20 dollars worth. V CONFIDENCE OPTIMISM THE DAILY NEWS has been re-I cejving congratulations on its recently announced purchase of a comjnodious downtown business block which, after extensive reconversion and extension work has been carried out, will become the paper's new? home. The ownership and management of the Daily News thus demonstrates in a practical and tangible way its permanent confidence in the future of Prince Rupert and its intention to serve in a larger and better way the community in the matter of dissemination of news and in the other ways in which a newspaper has of serving. The Daily News has long preached confidence and optimism in regard to Prince Rupert and its future. With the port and city now settling into the postwar years, that confidence and optimism is undiminished by any temporary reactions even after the breaking of a boom. If the Daily News, by its own actions and urgings may be of any assistance in making others become imbued with similar spirit of confidence and optimism, we will be well pleased. Meantime, we hope to be excused if we fell a little satisfaction in having been able in some measure to practice what we preach. NEWSPAPER COSTS INCREASED COSTS of production, I accentuated by recent increases of wages and price of newsprint, have made it necessary for newspapers of Canada to consider choice of meeting the financial situation in two traditional ways increasing the subscription price or the advertising rates. Papers in Eastern Canada have already generally increased their street sale prices from the general average of three cents to five cents. Western Canada newspapers have for a long time been generally sold on the streets at five cents. How these five-cent dailies intend to meet the higher cost has not yet been decided or disclosed. As for Prince Rupert, "subscription and advertising rates have for years been notoriously low. If and when the time comes that the managements of local papers find it essential to increase their rates, the patrons will, no doubt, accept the situation in good part. Rup-Rec Director ! To Go to Winnipeg Hup-Rec Director George Mc Gregor is leaving Prince Rupert at the end of June to take the position of director of physical education at the Y.M.C.A. at Winnipeg.

OORDON F FORBES, Acting Official Administrator, Prince Rupert, B.C 181 WOMEN'S STATUS CONSIDERED BY UNITED NATIONS NOW By ADELAIDE KERR NEW YORK (CP) A modern Danish clubwoman, who is her country's only woman film censor, heads the United Nations sub-cdmmission now tack ling the problem of getting equal rights for women all over the world. She is Mrs. Rodil Begtrup, president of the National Council ofWomen of Denmark and now chairman of the United Nations sub-commLssion on the j Status of Women. She Is a tall youn woman .with clear amber eyes and hair centre-parted and dressed as the Duchess of Windsor used t0 dress hers. Listen to her and you will hear fluent English". Watch her at the council table and you will see an administrator who guards her words and steers her way throueh nltfalls. Question her and you will hear up-to-date! post-war ideas on how to work for women's rights. "After the First Great War women felt they must fight for their rights," she said. -Today we feel that's a stupid, old-fashioned way to put it. You cant get young women into a movement working against men. Women proved themselves such a vital power in the last war lhat today many men especial ly in Europe favor giving them equal rights. 'The fact that the United Na tions Economic and Social Coun cil composed of 18 men request ed this study on the status of women indicates th interest and favorable attitude of men." The body Mrs. Begtrup heads is made up of el?ht women members from as many different countries and three ex-of flcio members from the Commission on Human Rights, of which it is a sub-body. Mm Eleanor Roosevelt is one of the ex-officio members. Is Working ,on Three-Fold Job The sub-commission is work ing in high gear on.a three-fold job: (1 To survey the rights and privileges women have In United Nations countriec. in nome of .which they still lack the ieh:. to work, vote and run fir been particularly active in office. (2) To find means to loundlrif up food supplies for better women's status where I nuimaritrn and French children. rights are Jacking. (3) To urge presentation of its proposals to the Human Rights Commission before the United Nations Assembly's September meeting. "I feel It is a very favorable sign that the sub-commission on the Status of Women was formed So early in the history of the United Nations and I feel we shall get something out of It." Mrs. Begtrup seems to have been headed toward her present Job ever since she was a schoolgirl. She had Intended to study art, but a book on citizenship fell into her hands and changed her life. Instead of mixing paints, she studied at the University of Copenhagen and later Joined the Students League of Nations Union and worked in Its' ranks. After her marriage she Joined the Danish National Council of Women. Since the war she has Last year she was appointed film censor. Besides her women's activities she has two big Interests working In her flower garden and embroidering cross-stitch. For fun, she goes to movies.. Ay Jk w ThU U Alttrt, papa!
