3J PAGE TWO CITY COUNCIL Alderman J. S. Black was granted leave of absence from civic duties from October 16 to November 7 on application to City Council last night. Acknowledged by City Council 1 last night was a farewell letter from Commander C. M. Cree, Naval Officer in charge Prince Rupert defences, who is leaving the city. Commander Cree expressed his regret at leaving the city, and offered his thanks foi the kindness and courtesy he had received while stationed here. Alderman Arnold, who last night attended her first coun cil meeting since returning last week from a six week's holiday to eastern Canada and United States, was officially welcomed to the council chamber by Mayor Daggett. "We hope that you are feeling refreshed and eager to look out for the welfare of the citizens," he said. Alderman Arnold replied that she found the east very nice, but that it was a great thrill to come back to Prince Rupert. The Board of Works recom mended that the Canadian and i American armies be requested to refrain from spreading crushed rock and sand on any asphalt street surface unless they are prepared to use a binder with this material. The Board of Works recommended that the city pay one-third of the cost of installing a sewer on Second street to the waterfront to serve navy buildings and nearby city property providing that an easement is obtained from the Department COUNCIL WANTS STAFF HOUSES TO REMAIN OPEN City Council will support a move by the Trades and Labor Council to have the Wartime Housing staff houses remain open so that working men in the city will have a place to stay. In discussion of the resolution last night, Mayor Daggett said that he understood that the dry dock, the proprietors of the staff houses, is trying to close one of the staff houses and have the occupants move to a nearby bunkhouse. The mayor said that he had been told that the high cost of operating the partly filled hostel was the reason that It was being closed. "However, I know that there are a lot of people around town who are trying to get into the staff houses," he said. Alderman Arnold told the meeting that she knew of two men who had tried unsuccessfully to find a place to live, and that they were now staying at the Salvation Army hostel which Is reserved for military person nel. Council agreed that the staff houses ought to remain open. of National Defence and that the cost to the city does not exceed $2,600.

The booklet describes how, after the battle of Milne Bay, the Japanese were deceived by the largest and most success ful camouflage operation ever undertaken by the Australian Army. The publication Issued recalls it "the greatest bluff of the Pacific war." Goodenough Island was captured by the Australians In October 194., but the force left to garrison it was too small to repel an expected Invasion by the Japs from Rabaul and Lae. A small camouflage unit was therefore sent to the Island to practise a little deception. The force holding the Island comprised only one com pany of Infantry and some at forth for some days but they were empty ships. To what extent the Japanese were deceived Is not known, but though many enemy reconnaissance planes flew over the island no expedition was ever sent to re-, cover ii. Do you want a better world?
