EDITORIAL young men. bure.Jy they ought to be able to spare AIRPORT BADLY NEEDED . . . A few months ago we were told by' the federal government that the establishment of an airport at Prince Rupert for land machines could not be considered on account of excessive .cost and lack of manpower. We were inclined to accept that edict for the time being but the feelintr is arrain rraininrr ground here that Prince Rupert should not be put off in such a way from its right to be nrnnprlv equipped to handle air traffic which is due for great development not only while the war lasts but after it is over, particularly in view of our imnnrtant. position in the Pacific theatre. It would be ,well therefore, that we should resume the campaign locally for the establishment in some way or another of an airport. The large flat area in the Hays Creek basin back of the city and this side of Mount Oldfield has been for years mentioned as a possible landing field site. It had been said that air currents and down- drafts caused by proximity to the mountain might make this site unsuitable. However, things are changing in the way of aircraft handling and development. It is declared by experts that the dav is now here when the great long landings strips will not be essential and aircraft will not be so greatly affected by air currents and drafts. The Hays Creek basin may yet be a suitable site. In any case, an airport is essential to Prince Rupert's future development and we should continue the campaign to obtain it.

TWENTY-EIGHT YEARS A LONG TIME Twenty-eight years is a good long time for any legislator's term of service and it is our pleasure to ' congratulate him and extend our congratulations! and best wishes to T .D. Pattullo, former Premier; and still Member of the Legislature for Prince Ru-, pert, on achieving a political record for British Columbia. It is a record possibly for any Legislature! 111 Canada. I We look back over the time since the fall of 1916 1 when the vigorous and very personable young ex-mayor of Prince Rupert won his first provincial election in Prince Rupert and say with confidence of general agreement that his record of service during those many years is appreciated as one of distinction, good value and achievement not only for his riding but for the province as a whole. Mr. Pattullo expresses appreciation of the confidence that the people of Prince Rupert have so consistently imposed on him through these many years. The people who elected him may conversely feel that their confidence has been well placed. We do not know what Mr. Pattullo's plans for the future may be. Quite possibly he may feel that the time has now come when he might quite gracefully retire from public life after this long and use--ful career as our good servant. Whatevev he may decide, we can say that he may thus far feel no regrets over a lengthy and honorable tenure. We are also sure that the people of Prince Rupert can have no regrets over the merits of the record period of service he has devoted to their interests.
