Terrace Hospital Ideal Site Announcement from the provincial department of public works at Victoria that tenders are being called, bids to be in by July 20, for the construction of a 100-bed hospital to ha the home for aged at Essondale reminds us again of the extensive and splendjd hospital buildings at Terrace which were recently vacated by the Department of National Defence and which still offer an ideal site for some sort of public institution. Not only is there the big ranging hospital building at Terrace but there is also the Nurses' Home building which is commodious and finely enough appointed itself to house an institution of substantial capacity. Permanent military hospital, sanitarium, home for the aged the . buildings at Terrace could be admirably used for any of these purposes. The location, high on a bench, overlooking a landscape of great expanse and beauty, is unexcelled. No doubt, the Terrace buildings will be sooner or later put to good use. Far East Roundup ... With the battle for Okinawa now over, Japan is directing the attention of her people more and more towards -the probability of the invasion of the Homeland. One means of concentrating Japanese public tention upon the likelihood of an invasion is the publicity now being given to the transfer of Japanese industry to the mainland of Asia; what in fact is happening in this, sphere is probably mainly the acceleration of a process which has been noticed for some time, namely the development of finishing plants near the sources of raw material in Manchuria and Korea. In addition, some heavy plants are already feeling the shortage of supplies being moved from Japan to the mainland. There is certainly every incentive for such acceleration both in the heavy bombing attacks upon the Home Islands, which have suffered more severely than ever in the last week and in the growing difficulties of transport between the mainland and Japan. There is certainly no alternative scene of hope and success to offer, the Japanese people in the news from the Netherlands East Indies. There the Australian landing at the great oil town of Balikpapan opens a new scene of operations in the southeast of the great island. The Japanese, who had long expected this attack, made a powerful effort to contain the bridgehead but failed. Meanwhile, far to the north operations in British Borneo progress well. Captures of oil centres there, together with those which must soon fall into Allied hands in the Balikpapan area, won't give us all the oil in Borneo. But they will leave only those of less importance in Japanese hands. In Burma, the monsoon still dominates the operations, and aided by it the enemy is trying to establish a coherent defence line covering approaches to Siam and Indo-China in the Sittang Valley and the Shan Hills. Japan's territories in Southeast Asia must now be defended with resources already there. The last big reinforcement in men was pushed through the corridor in southwest China early in the year, and shipping from Canton must now be difficult. The corridor through China has now been given up west of Liuchow and only in the area of the main north-south railway, giving highly, important communications With Canton, are the Japanese still extending their holdings.

WARTIME RAVAGES TO CARS SHOWN IN RECENTPOLICE BRAKE CHECK What the war has done to Prince Rupert's valllant brigade of civilian motor vehicles really shouldn't happen to a Red River cart. Carrying on year after wartime year with little but a spirit of patriotism to keep them going, they have arrived at a state where more than 20 per cent of them are bouncing along with defective brakes. ThLs inevitable sign of deterioration In the veteran Jalopies, most of which would normally' have been scrapped years ago had not the presumably late Hitler got out of hand, was brought to light by a recent brake check by city police, What me police might have found had they taken a garageman's inter est in the cars' innards must re main decently veiled. Motorists rightly feel that the WtfDFAUS yjftte... By1" ., lr& condition of old Betsy's cylinder walls and transmission are inti mate matters to be discussed only with the garageman. However, the matter of brakes is a concern of public safety, and during their recent check, the police kept records. "You're only a foot from trouble," they admonished those whom they checked. The check-up, they say, was not-carried on indiscriminately. They did not pounce on any and every handy motorist and force him to prove that his brakes would halt old Bess within a reasonable margin of safety. Actually, it was only such cars that had already fallen foul of the law that were checked. Any motorist who had driven blithely through a stop sign was asked to prove that he wodld have 1een able to stop if he had desired. are TERRACE John De Kergommeaux made an emergency trip to Prince Rupert Wednesday to take the Bush baby to Prince Rupert General Hospital.

The "blueberries are ripe now and quite a few pickers have been to the woods picking. Oeorge Jones, brother of Mrs. Hulton, is here for a month's visit. His home is in Regina. A ball game was held Sunday between Terrace and the R.C. A.F., Terrace civilian team winning by a score of 5-4. As we have said, about 20 per cent had faulty brakes. Of the 060 cars and trucks were tested. Of these, 17 did not licensed at Prince Rupert, 92 come up to standard. However, many were checked by police at outside points and were not included in the city police total. uniy a loot irom trouble!" a motorist marveiled. "Think of it." "Seventeen cars?" He re lared.

To' fhitt-grQflrs and" farmers,' though, it means good fruit spoiled by falling from the trees before picking-time. fCVVTINDFALLS" the fruit that falls from the VV trees before it is ripe were thought by farmers to be an inevitable loss. But chemists thought they could do something about it. And they did . . . they developed a hormone spray that actually prevents pre-harvest drop, enables the fruit to develop fully, to take on a more attractive colour. It also extends the picking season, which is really some thing when labour is scarce. The benefit is to the consumer as well as to the farmer. PARMONE for this is the name of this new fruit fixative has solved a major problem of fruit culture just as so many other products of chemistry have solved other problems for agriculture and industry.
