;The
Prince

Chamber
of
Commerce,
Can-
lated
on
starting
the
movement
which
culminated
this
Tuesday
night
in
the
organization
of
the
Prince
Rupert
Rehabilitation
Council,
one
of
the
principal
functions
of
which
will
be
to
prepare
this
community
for
the
return
home
of
the
men
who
have
been
fighting
the
war,
particularly
those
who
have
been
serving
on
the
battlefronts
but
also
for
those
who
have
been
on
the
war
industries
and
who
may
have
to
be
assisted
in
readjusting
themselves
in
peacetime
pursuits.
.
Committees
will
be
formed
to
survey
the
principal
.fields
of
employment
such
as
the
industries
to
ascertain
their
capacity
to
provide
employment.
The'
possibility
of
establishment
of
new
industries
here
in
connection
with
the
handling,
processing
and
distribution
of
the
natural
products
which
abound
soTichly
in
the
district
will
have
to
be
investigated.
The
newly
organized
local
council
will
have
the
opportunity
to
do
much
not
only
in
assisting
in
the
rehabilitation
of
men
and
women
in
their
readjustment
after
the
war
but
in
exploring
the
possibilities
of
opening
new
fields
of
employment
here
all
of
which
would
be
of
benefit
to
the
whole
economy
of
the
community.
The
success
or
otherwise
of
the
effort
will
depend
to
large
extent
on
the
accomplishments
of
those
wlio
will
be
assigned
to
the

France,
opened
fire
on

from

All
seven
German
ships
were
sunk,
but
a

suffered
a
direct
hit.
Through
searing
flame
and
blinding
smoke,
Able
Seaman
Michael
Kerwin
staggered
to
safety.
Then,
though
wounded
and
burned,
fought
his
way
'back
through
the
blazing
inferno
to
rescue
a
shipmate.

These

thousands
of

too,
look
to
us
at

to
support
their
efforts
until
the
very
last
shot
is
fired.
Though
the
part
we
play
is
small
in
comparison,
can
any
one
of
us
turn
our
backs,
on
them
and
say,
"I've
done
my
share
you
don't
need
my
help."
They
do
need
your
help
and
the
more
you
help,
the
quicker
they
can
get
their
dangerous
part
of
the
job
over

be
