Another
Story
Told
.
.
.
Another
of
the
highly
interesting
"now
it
can
be
told"
stories
that
will
be
appearing
now
that
the
war
is
over
is
featured
in
The
Daily
News
today.
It
is
the
story
of
the
large
use
to
which
the
United
States
Army
put
this
port
to
use
in
carrying
the
war
across
the
Pacific
from
the
time
of
dire
emergency
immediately
after
Pearl
Harbor
until
the
defeat
of
the
enemy
came
a
few
weeks
ago.
It
will
make
highly
interesting
reading
for
all,
even
the
people
of
Prince
Rupert
who,
of
course,
were
aware
of
the
big
things
that
were
going
on
but
from
whom
the
official
information
was
also
withheld
because
of
the
publicity
blackout.
It
is
a
revelation
of
how
useful
the
strategic
position
of
Prince
Rupert
in
the
Pacific
theatre
proved
in
a
time
of
crisis.
The
justifiable
expectation
now
is,
of
course,
that
in
the
normal
days
of
trade
and
commerce
to
come,
the
recognition
which'
war
brought
will
be
continued.
Today's
article,
produced
by
the
United
States
Army
public
relations
department,
has
been
released
to
all
newspapers
on
the
continent
and
will
prove
very
valuable
from
a
general
publicity
standpoint.

FOR
Labor
Market
in
Reverse
.
.
.
The
labor
market
appears
to
be
going
into
reverse.
Employers,
hard
pressed
these
last
few
years
to
find
men
for
jobs,
arfi
now
going
to
have
to
find
jobs
for
men.
Many
of
them
have
commitments
to
their
employees
who
joined
the
armed
forces
and
who
must
be
provided
for
after
they
are
discharged
from
the
services.
Even
now,
before
many
of
the
men
of
the
forces
are
out
of
the
services,
laid-off
men
from
the
war
industries,
to
say
nothing
of
the
women,
are
seeking
other
jobs.
There
are
going
to
be
difficult
and
vexatious
questions
both
for
employers
and
employees.
Patience
and
understanding
will
have
to
be
xer-cised
all
around
as
the
particular
problems
of
war
employment
recede
and
those
of
normal
times
reappear.
New,
Educational
Problem
.
.
.
Appearance
in
the
schools
of
the
city
of
18-year-old
boys,
who
have
been
employed
in
the
war
industries
for
the
past
few
years,
poses
a
problem
for
the
school
authorities.
Of
course,
there
are
only
a
few
such
cases
in
Prince
Rupert
so
far
but,
doubtless,
there
will
be
more
and
the
question
will
be
general.
If
the
number
of
such
''men"
becomes
very
great,
it
will,
of
course,
mean
some
sort
of
segregation,
involving,
special
instructional
arrangements.
It
is
obvious
that
complications
would
arise
through
having
such
older
students
co-mingling
with
the
boys
of
normal
school
age.
How
the
problem
is
to
be
met
will,
of
course,
depend
to
some
extent
on
the
"men"
themselves.

LETTERBOX
APPRECIATION
OF
YANKS
Editor,
Dally
News:
Now
that
the
war
Is
over
and
we
may
reasonably
expect
that
the
American
Army
personnel
will
soon
be
leaving
this
district
we
Canadians
should
show
in
any
way
we
can
our
appreciation
of
our
southern
visitors
and
all
that
they
have
meant
to
the
cl'v
and
district
of
Prince
Rupert.
it
is
no
credit
to
the
Canadian
powers
that
be
that
it
needed
a
war
to
reveal
the
potentialities
of
this
northern
city
and
port
and
one
may
be
forgiven
for
hoping
that
the
lesson
may
not
be
lost
on
those
who
have
it
in
their
power
to
facilitate
the
advancement
of
the
district
in
the
days
that
are
already
close
upon
us.
As
one
who
has
been
associated
with
the
personnel
of
Americans
military,
naval
and
civilian
for
more
than
a
year
I
should
like
to
voice
my
own
personal
anpreciation.
I
havr
seen
how
they
have
tried
very
earnestly
to
shake
the
dry
boner
of
Prince
Rupert
into
a
semblance
of
life
and
with
a
success
only
conditioned
by
the
degree
of
receptivity
shown
by
the
learner.
Not
only
have
they
transformed
the
face
of
t
he
city
and
port,
and
brought
concrete
evidenc
of
their
lusty
life-giving
energy
and
purpose
but
they
have
also
filled
local
coffers
and
made'llfe
much
more
pleasant
than
it
would
otherwise
have
been
for
thy
local
residents.
When
they
have
gone,
Prince
Rurjert
will
certainly
miss
them
and
regret
that
sometimes
they
treated
such
good
friencs
so
curtly
but
it
U
fervently
to
be
hoced
that
the
city
will
not
be
allowed
to
fall
back
into
the
state
of
moribund
ccma
from
which
these
excellent
neighbors
have
at
such
cost
rescued
it.

to
the

apron
of
the
Army
Transport
Seiiice
Docks.
Administrative
office
building
of
the
port,
located
near
the
warehouse,
contains
,53,776
square
feet
of
floor
space.
In
addition
there
are
numerous
other
docks,
marine
repair,
shops
and
cargo
sheds.
A
cold
storage
plant
has
1,000-ton
capacity.
On

Hill
overlooking
the
town
and
waterfront
Is
the
port
camp
area,
which
houses
a
majority
of
the
3,500
soldiers
and
civilian
workers
required
to
maintain
the
installation.
Here
are
all
the
usual
camp
facilities,
including
barracks,
officers'
quarters,
theatre,
gymnasium,
office
buildings,
Red
Cross
Club
and
mess
halls.
The
main
function
of
the
Prince
Rupert
Sub-Port
of
Embarkation
at
present
Is
to
supply
the
Aleutians
and
the
Alaska
theatre,
as
well
as
the
Alaska
Highway
area
in
Canada
north
of
Watson
Lake,
and
other
Pacific
areas.
Considerably
more
than
si
million
tons
of
freight
have
passed
through
the
port.
Port
Edward
Staging
Area
Another
Installation
at
Prince
Rupert
is
the
Staging
Area,
located
at
Port
Edward
about
ten
miles
from
the
main
port.
Port
Edward's
chief
purpose
is
to
house
and
equip
personnel
moving
to
and
from
the
North
Pacific
and
Alaska
theatres.
Starting
with
a
bare
site,
the
camp
was
developed
sufficiently
to
care
for
several
thousand
troops
every
month.
It
has
all
the
usual
facilities
of
a
U.
S.
army
camp,
including
barracks,
mess
halls,
theatre,
chapel,
office
buildings,
warehouses,
storage
facilities,
and
recreation
halls.
These
were
all
built
by
U.
S.
E.
D.
Engineers
of
the
Northwest
Division.
On
March
15,
1943,
nine
offi
cers,
244
enlisted
men,
and
387
civilian
workers
were
brought
to
Port
Edward
from
the
shipwrecked
Army
transport
Otsego.
The
necessity
for
housing,
feeding
and
reclothing
these
men
brought
about
the
premature
opening
of
the
post.
Four
officers,
some
cooks
and
bakers
were
assigned
to
Port
Edward
from
Prince
Rupert
and
companies
were
formed
of
the
civilian
construction
workers
to
be
employed
on
U.
S.
E.
D.
pro-
Jjects,
and
Army
personnel,

the
