As
far
back
as
1938,
the
possibility
of
war
in
the
Pacific
and
the
need
for
protecting
the
long
vulnerable
coastline
of
British
Columbia
were
foreseen,
with
the
result
that
the
Fishermen's
Reserve
was
organized
before
the
war
broke
out.
With
this
preparation,
the
Fishermen's
Reserve,
whose
members
were
all
enlisted
in
the
Royal
Canadian
Naval
Reserve,
was
one

and
other

Early
In
1944
the
Fishermen's
Reserve
was
disbanded,
When
the
Japanese
were
striking
at
the
Aleutians
a
number
of
"alerts"
were
sounded
at
II.M.C.S.
Chatham
and
there
were
dozens
of
reports
of
"submarines
sighted
at
sea"
but
investigating
'sweepers
always
found
that
the
"subs"
were
either
whales
or
fishing
boats.
Communications
personnel
were
stationed
at
Massett,
Queen
Charlotte
Islands
and
Klnahan
Island.
A
radio
station
was
maintained
at
Massett
while
from
Klnahan
''blinker"
signals
were
sent
to
every
vessel

lng
Prince

harbor.
In
addition
to
these
posts,
another
group
was
stationed
on
Ridley
Island
for
look-out
duty.
The
Navy
has
made
great
efforts
to
keep
morale
high
not
only
"amongltr
own
men
but
also
among
other
Canadian
and
American
services.
Beginning
of
the
Navy's

came
with
the

shown
under
the
supervision
of
Petty
Officer
W.
Cole,
Petty
Officer
A.

and
Ldg

Several
theatrical
enterprises
were
undertaken
by
Navy
men,
starting
with
the
"Chatty

which
Lieut.
Commander
Harrison
took
part
in.
Later
an
organization
called
the
H.M.C.S.

was
formed
ana
it

some
interesting
performances.
The

FOR
THE
NIPPONESE
TOKYO,
Sept.
8
(CP).
General
Douglas
Mac-Arthur,
shunriing
all
fanfare
as
a
conqueror,
entered
Tokyo
with
fully
armored
troops
and
officially
signalized
the
occupation
of
the
war-wrecked
city
with
a
ten-minute
flag-raising
ceremony.
The
Allied
supreme
commander
was
stern
of
visage
and
firm
of
voice
at
the
United
States
embassy
grounds,
within
a
five-minute
drive
of
Emperor
Hlrohlto's
palace,
as
he
ordered:
"Have

In
Tokyo's
sun
let
it
wave
its
full
glory
as
a
symbol
of
hope
for
the
oppressed
and
as
a
harbinger
of
victory
for
the
right."
The
general
and
his
men
came
as
first
foreign
victors
ever
to
enter
the
heart
of
surrendered
Japan.
In
their
hour
of
triumph
they
were
all
business.
Tanks
halted
on
the
city's
outskirts
to
avoid
further
damaging
Tokyo's
streets.
First
reconnaissance
groups
set
up
a
guard
at
the
Imperial
Hotel
to
serve
for
the
present
as
general
headquarters.
Few
Japanese
were
in
the
streets
or
along
the
road
as
