S Timber Worker's Strike BRITISH COLUMBIA is facing the possibility of another disastrous strike in the logging industry. If it occurs, thousands of men will be out of work. If the strike lasts any length of time, sawmills and pulp and paper mills will close. The whole industrial set-up of the province will be thrown out of kilter again. Halted will be the supply of much needed lumber for both domestic and export markets. The unfortunate thing about it, of course, would be that the public itself would be the worst sufferer. A long loggers' tie-up would throw workers in many other lines out of jobs and the loggers themselves would eventually be in a bad way. Ironically, the least hurt would be the operators against whom the strike would be called. The only really happy people would be those among us whose aim is merely to create trouble and chaos. If the..strjke does start it will, of course, end some time and the ending would probably be a settlement on the terms that are rejected. Who would then have been the real sufferers? The most of recent strikes have certainly not been turning out to the benefit of the strikers. AMERICAN POLITICS THE OVERRIDING by United States Congress I of President Truman's veto of the Taft-Hartley labor bill was described by one commentator as a great victory for Senator Robert Taft who is seen as one of the principal contenders for the Republican presidential nomination. Such it may have been from the standpoint of Congress itself, the Republicans, as a whole, together with the Democrats of the right, having voted to override. It is doubtful, however, if the sentiment of the United States as a whole is as emphatically in favor of the labor bill as was Congress. There was a feeling no doubt, that some curbs on organized labor's power were necessary but whether they needed to have been so drastic as contained in the Taft-Hartley bill is another question. There might well be a sentiment that the swing in this bill was a little too drastic in the other extreme. Public reaction in the United States on recent : sensational political developments, as a matter of fact, has not yet been thoroughly sounded. It may be found yet that this reaction may swing more Trumanward than Taftward, or may further develop the Wallace third party. The Republicans, indeed, may have gone too far in their political machinations following their Congressional ascendancy. f r BILL OF RIGHTS THE RECENT parliamentary debate on civil I liberties must convince most Canadians of the need of a Bill of Rights in this nation, writes Bruce Hutchison, well known British Columbia newspaperman and now associate editor of Winnipeg Free Press. Certainly the debate seems to have brought this conviction to most members of Parliament, regardless of party. In the first place, Canada has a responsibility tft trio TTrntoH Matinno nVinoa PVin .tv. kinrlc ?f respect "human rights and fundamental freedoms for all." Since the United Nations is attempting to draft an international Bill of Rights, protecting the basic liberties of all peoples, it will be Canada's duty to apply such an agreement within its own boundaries. It was primarily in pursuance of this purpose that the Canadian government proposed the present parliamentary inquiry. It may be said that Canada's protection of human freedom is certain to be above the standard set by any international code at the present stage of history; that we can accept any international Bill of rights without altering our present laws and practices in any respect. But there seems to be agreement among all parties in our Parliament that Canada should not be satisfied merely to follow the leadership o other nations in this matter but man freedom is certain to have the standard set by any international code at the present stage of history; that we can accept any international Bill of rights without altering our present laws and practices in any respect. But there seems to be agreement among all parties in our Parliament that r i i 1J i. 1. ir ! J i a e i ianacia snoum not ue sausueu merely xo ionow t.h lendfirshih of other nations in this mnrtpr hut " should give leadership to them. Only a few nations in the world today can give such leadership for only a few nations enjoy real freedom. Among this small group, and as free as any of them, is Canada. The argument which apparently was accepted in Parliament is that, having declared in favor of freedom in an international charter, Canada should demonstrate its devotion to this ideal by positive action which all the world can see and understand. In short, if we believe in freedom for the individual, we should no longer hesitate to vyrite it .into definite law, which we presently lack Thus, we shall not only provide protection for our own people but we shall encourage the development of freedom elsewhere. Liquor Act Criticized Was Among Matters Discussed at Anglican Synod, Mr. Prockter Reports Rev. Basil S. Prockter, rector of St. Andrew's Anglican Cathedral, returned to the city by Saturday night's train alter having attended the Anglican Synod of British Columbia held In PenUcton last ueek. Mr. Prock-ter travelled by bus to Prince George to catch the train. He had flown south from here last veek The Syncd was also attended j by Bishop Gtbaon, Archdeacon Hodion, Rev. S. Kinley of Aiy-ansh. and G. P. Tinker. There were 30-odd detegatis altogether Archbishop W. R. Adams of Kootenay presided. Church business -occupying considerable attention Included a move In the direction of establishing a fixed Metropolitan See at Victoria. Up to this time the Archbishop has been the senior bishop of the province and he has stayed with his own diocese. It . was seen as of value if the man who could speak for the whole Anglican Church In British Columbia could reside at the seat of government. An amendment to the method of electing bishops was also suggested which would simply make It possible for the House of Bishops of the Provincial Synod of Alaska who was not only; Bisnoo or AiasKa but also a bishop. - at - laree who went throp?fc the lenrth and breadth th TTnit-r1 States a-wakenin? th merrtbershio of the Episcopal ; Church to its missionary respon-unities. A verv nrolon?e.1 studv was made of the condition of the native work and a report of recommendations which have bepn made to Ottawe. on behalf of the native Tholes. Odp f Ihe dictates at the Synod was Chief Ravmond Dunstan of Lvtton. I A closer organization; of men in church vffairs was seen as highly desirable and en couraging news was received as to progress in this regard during the past year on Vancouver Turning to the question ot church union the Synod urged that very opportunity be taken to study the matter in the par ishes by the formation of groups to meet for convmaUons with Croups from other churches. On the question of religious education in the schools of the province, the Synod heard that the graded readings of the Bible lor the Schools are now In the hands of the printers. It asked that the government consider the possibility of the teaching of the essentials cf religion In 1 the school to all except those whose parents did not want Jt InjformaUonal Bible teaching I was seen as something which the church could not regard as essential. Whs,t was eswntlal was that children should learn i he basic Christian beliefs, how to pray and the difference be- i tween rieht and wrons In other words, the Creed, the Lord's Piaver and the Ten Command- ! ments. Th Liquor Act of the province was seen as not functioning in any way in the Interest of true temperance. In the dreary beer swilling establishments not even a sandwich or a magazine or a piece of music was allowed to Interfere with the supreme business of beer consumption..Ref ulation compelled a transient to take a bottle of liquor Into a bedroom in order to consume it. These were seen as encouragement to Intemperance and vice. However, the Synod did not feel that all tbe answer lay with the government and called on parents, clergy and teachers to enlist in the cause of true temperance. Other social matters that came in for sympathetic study were NEW WEAPON AGAINST CANCER In his laboratory at Rochester. N.Y.. Dr. David W. Stewart shows Mrs. Ruth Packer a Jar containing the new high-concentrate Carbon 13. Availability of the higher concentraUon, nearly twice as rich as was hitherto obtainable, will enable chemists to see and follow more acu-rately chemical reactions In the body, aiding them to understand better what happens when cancer starts and grows. Daughter of Former Mayor Newton Dies Isabelle. daughter of the late Mayor and Mrs. S. M. Newton died recenUy in California, this being long after her removal to and marriage in the United States. Word of her passing, which is understood to have occurred a considerabletime ago will be learned of with regret by to make nominaUcr-S on these cld time irienis Prince Ru occasions.

Another matter receiving con-sMersble nttentlon was the possibility of immediate aoooint-ment-of a new Bishop of Yukon to reolace the late Et. Rev. W. A. Geddes. It was' felt that Immediate steos ouht to be taken In nite of th fact that the Depu tation of the Yukon was not 1 lare nor likely to increase in the near future. The hepe was exoressed that Yukon misbt i hv a bishon like Bifhoo Row I pert. In pioneer days she was accountant in the office of The Evening Empire. labor -management relations and the old age pension. Some reference was also made to British immigration. The Sxnod was very kindly treated by the people ot PenUcton. It was the first time a Provincial Synod had ever been held out of Vancouver ani Victoria and was voted a most welcome and enjoyable change.
