An Important Manifesto . . j Unlike most political manifestoes, the keynote speech of Premier, John Ifart for the forthcoming provincial election, published to considerable extent in the Daily News today, cbntains news of major importance. Of particular interest here is the Premier's statement of policy in regard to the important matter of de- yelopment of the northern part of the province. ; A promise of an extensive and domprehensive program for the development and betterment of the province is made. More than that the coalition government, through its good management, is in a fine position to implement that program. i We would commend the Premier's manifesto to the careful attention of the electors so that they may be guided thereby in their exercise of the franchise. i Hard to Understand ... ? If the defence authorities of Canada mean business at all, it is, of course, obvious that Prince Rupert must figure largely in their plans. The experiences of war in the Pacific accentuated the strategic position of this port both in offence qnd defence. That is why it is difficult for us to understand the present move to abandon the fixed installations that have been established here at such great cost although we hopefully anticipate that this does not" indicate a future policy of neglect. The Seal Cove air base was initiated as a permanent defence pro- ect and, as such, was under wav even before the war started. Now it has been intimated that it is to be all but abandoned. I The Prince Rupert naval base H.M.C.S. Chatham involved an expenditure of $1,500,000. Now it is )eing dismantled or sold out follow-; ng decommission. - To many people, convinced that, feven though the war may be over, 'THE MEN'S SHOP" OPEN FOR YOUR APPROVAL . . .

National security and not merely local development is involved. Freedom of the Press . . . Every so often in the affairs of a newspaper which is endeavouring to serve the public in a normal manner there comes a time when a choice has to be made between publishing the news to which the public has come to consider itself entitled or suppressing the news in order to. please or protect an individual advertiser or subscriber. Decisions have to be made by the editorial department which, according to the disposition of the offended patron, may result in the cancellation of an advertisement or- of a subscription. These are the little problems with which the experienced newspaperman has to deal now and then and which he takes quite philosophically. After all, the most of our advertisers and our subscribers are our patrons because of the value they receive. The fact that they may be offended by something we may. publish does not affect th,e business consideration. In any case, the honest and progressive newspaper usually strives to publish the news even at the risk of losing the occasional customer and does not submit to being dictated to by individual advertisers or subscribers. The few dollars that may be lost by the odd "incident" is generally made up fqr in the end through the building up of a reputation of courage and service. And, of course, when such incidents bring repercussions, it is a testimonial to the fact that we are getting around a bit and that we are really of some service. It is a dull newspaper, indeed, that always has smooth sailing without the occasional squall. Such a newspaper is not usually very effective either from the advertiser or reader standpoint. And, further, those who may feel themselves to have been wrongly dealt with have always the welcome recourse of our columns in which to express their side of the case within due bounds a privilege which the Daily News has always been generous, sometimes to the point of being criticized, in extending.

Dr. Tremellen said her patients, mostly suffering from "anxiety neurosis," are plunged into deep depression IT they smoke; that the eiTects of the mother smoking on the newborn child will be discovered only later; that she does not agree with other , doctors who say that smoking soothes the nerves; that smoking Is "an inslduous and increasing disease;" that the medical profession should face the whole question "honestly" and take steps to overcome the smoking habit and that the Increase In nervous Illness is partly due to smoking. One reply came from the In stltute of Industrial Psychology which said that "the soothing effect of a cigarette is a very Important factor in the produc tlveness of the nation's workers." Dr. R. S. Schilling, secretary of the industrial health research board, said that there was evi dence heavy smoking had an in i i miRHCLES of V i r .rlarfs ,H jurious effect on health but as far as industrial workers were concerned he did not think the matter was serious. Few of them had opportunities 10 smoke while at work. Alex Jackson, manager of the Wembley Speedway, where motorcyclists careen about dirt traoks. said that only men .with the strongest nerves were successful at this sport. Nearly all the riders smoked and they had told Mr. Jackson a cigarette was a useful sedative before a race, The war office and air minis try, asked for their views, said simply that their plan to let sol diers and airmen buy cigarettea at a cheaper rate than the gen eral public has proved very popular."

Is there a man's discarded suit hanging in a cupboard in your house ? Perhaps it's threadbare in places or a little shiny at the elbows. Maybe the man of the house is just tired of it. More probably ,he's keeping it only because "it may come in handy some time." Whatever the reason, the suit should be in use; With a little effort, you may be able to put new life into it. If not, look into its re-make possibilities. He'll howl when you ask for it you can depend on that. Men seem to like old clothes the best.
