Dangerous Days Ahead ... iUis a pity more people are not given, to reading those formidable looking "Addresses Made at the Annual Meeting of Shareholders'of the Blank Bank of Canada." They are set in small type, and lack the entertainment value of the comic strips. They are not as dull as they look. In fact, they are about as concise a statement of the state of the nation as anyone could ask. Since they an' based on facts and seasoned by the opinions of men who have a sensitive touch on bur industrial pulse they :u entitled to dur respectful consideration. "Thus when Morris Wilson, president of the Royal Bank of Canada, emphasizes in his annual report that Canada's economic development has been dependent on foreign trade since the days when raw furs were our only export he voices the opinion of many, if not all, of Canada's leading business men and economic advisers. In the United States the great size of the domestic market provides a substantial backlog for domestic products but in Canada prosperity cannot be based on internal demand, due to our small population and dur great productive ability. Canada's periods of prosperity and of depression can be measured almost exactly bythe rise and fall of our export ...trade as anyone who wishes to look, up the facts may find out for him-self . This being so, it is only another way of saying the same thing when one points out that Canadian economic development in the future as in the past depends on this country's degree of participation in the sphere of interna-tion trade. Monetary stability is one of the foundation stones of international trade. All those who are offering their particular panaceas are succeeding only in adding to the general bewilderment. The inescapable facts remain as they have always remained and cannot be glossed over with aiiy generalities about Plenty for All. We are all eager to carry out the progressive ideas of our time. However, if Canada is to maintain a high degree of employment, it is reasonable to suppose this condition will be based on the same circumstances January Shoe a earance PAGE TWO on which it is based n'' aml nas 1)ecn based in the past large exports.

A Seconti Theatre . . . Prince Kupert people have been curious fr ?orne me about what might' or might not be done in the matter of providing the city with a new theatre. Therefore, the announcement ' by the visiting British Columbia manager of Famous Players-Canadian Corporation that his company would be building a ' second theatre on an already purchased site on Third Avenue was timely. The theatre business is somethinir for the theatre people to know about as far as the economic and financial end is concerned. However, we do know that the theatre-going people here have had to put up with a good deal of inconvenience owing to there being only one theatre. We also know that there are few cities in the country of the size and importance of Prince Rupert that have but one theatre. So we are glad to know now that, at the earliest moment possible, Prince Rupert is to have a second theatre and that it is to be operated in addition to the present one which has given and still is giving a service regarding which the only complaint can be is its inadequacy, an inadequacy which the company itself admits. A Situation Which Must Be Met Of course, the situation now exist ing whereby thousands of the men of Canada's Army are absent without leave because they do not want to fight is ridiculous and cannot be tolerated. No army can permit its men to flout orders and discipline in this manner and take the law into their own, hands. There is no excuse for them and it is to be expected that they will be systematically and persistently rounded up and accorded the penalties for desertion which can be very severe. The H.D.'s never were very popular but they did have the chance to show the stuff of which they were made and many of them eventually did as more doubtless will. Any who have now deliberately made deserters of themselves are deserving of rigorous punishment. The military authorities will rightly enough be expected to take a firm hand in the matter so that this sort of thing, amounting to practically anarchy in the forces, will be put down once and for all. Thousands of men like this cannot be allowed to remain any longer inexcusably at large. It they wero. the whole army might soon be out of MONDAY, TUESDAY and WEDNESDAY, Jan. 22, 23 & 24 BLACK AND BROWN SHOES 5.95-6.50-6.95-7.50 Also Broken Sizes, values to 10.50 All to Clear at SIZES FROM G TO 11 $4.95 William F.
