Keeping
Us
Reminded
.
.
.
Every
time
Ed.
Kenney,
the
energetic
and
popular
member
of
the
Legislature
for
our
neighboring
riding
of
Skeena,
comes
to
town
from
Terrace
he
seems
to
have
some
interesting
and
cpnstructive
suggestions
in
regard
to
what
we
ought
to
be
doing
to
further
the
development
and
interests
of
this
part
of
the
country.
The
port
of
Prince
Rupert
appears
to
have
a
most
consistent
and
active
f
riend
and
advocate
jn
the
person
of
Mr.
Kenney,
the
interests
of
wnose
own
nqing
oi
bjieena
are,
ot
course,
so
com-i
piereiy
linked
up
with
i'rince
Hupert.
Today
we
have
an
interesting
interview
from
Mr.
Kenney
telling
us
to
keep
on
driving
for
the
Peace
River
railway
and
highway
outlets
and
to
campaign
for
a
steel
mill
on
this
part
of
the
ppast
in
view
qf
the
iron
resources
readilv
accessible
in
the
Conner
River
country
to
the
southeast
of
Terrace.
Mr.
Ken-)
nev
also
includes
as
somethincr
a
little'
newer
in
his
i
list
of
undertakings
for
the
cleyelopnient
pf
this
part
of
the
country
a
rural
electrification
scheme
fqr
the
central
interior.
The
western
railwav
and
highway
outlet
proposals
for
the
Peace
River
are
not
particularly
new
but,
n
these
times
when
important
plans
are
be'inc
made
for
postwar
rebabjljtatjpn
and
development,'
it
is
important
that
they
should
be
kept
to
the
fpre.
'lhe
steel
mill
project
has
been
mooted
for
years
but
j
there
has
been
a
tendency
qf
Jate
to
lose
sight
qf
the
advantages
qf
this
immediate'
district
for
such
a
project.
The
benefits
tliat
wpijjd
he
derived
frqm
a
rural
electrification
prqject
in
the
interior
are,
of
course,
obvious.
We
are
busy
people
here
in
Prince
Rupert
these
days
with
our
immediate
tasks
in
view
of
tjie
intensity
of
war
eqnditiqns.
We
are
i'nelin'e.c
tp
pverjook
the
importance
of
keeping
driving
fpr
prpjects
that
will
be
required
by
Prince
Rupert
if
the
stimulus
presently
paused
by
the
emergency
requirments
of
waging
war
is
tp
be
retained
in
at
least
a
measure
after
the
war
is
over.
It
is
well
that
there
are
men
like
Mr.
Kenney
around
th
remind
us
of
such
things.
We
would
dp
well
to
keep
them
to
the
fore.
Sidestepping
the
Japanese
Issue
..
,
The
Co-operative
Commonwealth
Federation
in
British
Columbia
should
not
endeavour
tn
siVIp.
step
the
Japanese
issue
which,
is
much
tp
the
fore
in
the
province
at
this
time.
However,
tp
say
that
It
is
a
matter
which
will
be
for
Ottawa
to
decide
after
the
war
does
not
in
any
way
alter
or
moderate
the
stand
that
has
already
been
expressed
on
behalf
of
the
party
and
its
members
on
the
subject.
It
could
not
be,
pf
course,
that
the
C.C.F.
would
endeavour
to
postpone
a
definite
expression
of
its
attitude
until
after
an
election.
Surely
the
Socialist
party
would
not
be
weakening
on
its
convictions.
If
the
C.C.F.
senses
that
it
wouhl
be
well
tq
change
its
stand
altogether
en
the
Japanese
issue
in
prder
to
fall
in
line
with
what
appears
to
be
the
popular
attitude
on
the
matter
the
least
it
cpuld
do
would
be
to
express
itself
to
that
effect.
Later
dispatches
today
indicate
it
is
not
changing
its
mind.
Overseas
Mail
Service
.
.
.
'
During
recent
weeks
there
have
been
many
complaints,
of
delay
and
non-delivery
of
mails
to
and
from
members
of
the
armed
forces
overseas.
There
is
no
doubt
that
there
have
been
delays.
Some,
possibly,
might
have
been
avoided
but
some
were
probably
quite
unavoidable.
Relatives
and
friends,
on
the
one
hand,
and
the
men
in
the
services
themselves,
on
the
other,
are
naturally
impatient
for
their
mail
and
it
is
sometimes
difficult
to
explain
to
them
acceptably
the
whys
and
wherefores
of
delays.
.
Meanwhile
the
Postmaster
General
has
authorized
an
advertising
campaign
in
the
press
explaining
the
reasons
for
delays
in
the
majl
and
the
steps
which
should
be
taken
by
those
jn
Canatja
sending
maij
overseas
to
insure
its
proper
delivery
including
proper
addressing,
the
use
of
lightweight
paper
and
the
proper
packaging
of
parcels.
We
would
suggest
that
each
and
one
of
the
advertisements
be
perused
very
carefully.
The
principal
causes
for
(jejays
tp
overseas
mail
have
been
listed
as
follows:
(1)
Th?
aA
S
transpqrfc,
both
ajr
and
surface,
on
account
pf
the
imperative
and
ncessant
requirements
for
vital
operations.
