Prince Rupert's Story YEARS AGO about this time when Bruce THREE "McKelvie, eminent British' Columbia newspaperman and outstanding authority on the history of this province, visited this city he expressed the opinion that it was time even then without further delay to take steps to compile 'and record the history of Prince Rupert and bring it up to date. Researchers, who are coming here in increasing numbers now, attracted by the growing prominence that this port is attaining due to its obviously strategic importance in the world scene, always want to set up a background for their records with historical data of the city. They come to the newspaper office to go through the laborious process of searching through the files or seek out some of the old timers to get their personal story. They get an interesting but usually incomplete picture and a good deal of time is wasted in getting it. All of which reminds us forcibly again that it is high" time that something was being done to compile, if not actually write, Prince Rupert's history before it isitoo late. In fact, there are few of the real pioneers left here and even they are becoming sometimes.hazy.in theirrecollectiohs. They are the ones who should provide the benefit of their knowledge and experience. It would -seem highly appropriate that, with little further delay, Prince Rupert should organize a pioneer or historical society which might have two principal objectives first to bring the pioneers together again in happy social intercourse, as once was done here, and, second, to take active steps to devise ways and means of making an appropriate historical record. There.are many organizations in the city already but we can think of none that would be more worthy, useful or interesting than an association of the pioneers. Something should be done about it while there are still some real pioneers here. We are sure the pioneers themselves are all in favor and it is just a matter of getting them together. The Daily News itself, which has a few old timers on its staff, would be glad to co-operate in every way possible. TRUMAN STRONGER NOW 1 PRESIDENT HARRY TRUMAN, who only about, a year ago was at a low mark of public esteem, being panned for his "ineptitude," and seeming incapacity, has since made quite a comeback. He has measured himself up to some serious problems and crises and has done some courageous and far-sighted things. The fact that his party lost legislative control in both congressional branches has seemed to have been a spur to him, instead of a deteriorating handicap. Of some pretty courageous things he has done, none have been more important in the domestic sphere of nation, at least, than the vetoing of the tax reduction bill yesterday. It may not have been the popular thing to do but it was a strong thing and, possibly, the sensible. If there had been any doubt before that Truman would get the Democratic nomination for the next presidential election, such doubt is now removed. Whether .or not he will be able to lead theiparty back to victory, again is, of course, extremely problematicalin fact it would seem to be most improbable. Despite the dissension in its ranks, over presidential choice and other questions and the spoils of political victory in sight, the Republicans would seem to be inevitably in line for succession in 1948 with Governor Thomas Dewey of New York as their standard-bearer. Harry Truman, nevertheless, vho was in a difficult position from the start as the successor of the great Roosevelt, while his career mav have been a short one, will not have been as discredited or .as dishonored as it appeared for a time, he might have been.
