SHORT HALIBUT SEASON May 1 to June 8 make an exceptionally short season for Prince Rupert's halibut fishing industry. That" is what it amounts to since all but a few vessels of the local fleet have to withdraw from the fishing with the closing of the contiguous Area No. 2 although the further out Area No. 3, with its quota so far hardly scratched, is still available for the operation of the larger vessels. Resolved to perpetuate the industry with continuing conservation measures, the International Fisheries Commission has no doubt canvassed most thoroughly all the avenues of fair regulation and apportionment. ,If the fleet itself cannot arrange, as it once did, some meank of voluntary curtailment, it would seem there can be little else done to spread out the period of production. The only means of preventing the length of the season contracting even more towards the disappearing point would appear to be the operation of fewer boats and the spacing out of trips. Economic conditions might, of course, in time force some more orderly and gradual form of landing. It was not so many years ago that such heavy landings in such a short space of time as in the current short season, would have completely demoralized prices and markets. It might hap-nen again too. Meantime, it is a case, as far as the fishing is concerned, of a mad rush to clean out the quota as quickly as possible with the devil taking the hindmost CHOCOLATE BARS The nickel candy bar will return, and before very long, predicts Food in Canada. "It will not be as big a bar as a pre-war nickel could purchase, and it will not supplant the eight-cent bar, but it will sell beside the eight-center on candy counters, and sell very well, too, among that segment of the buying public to whom a nickel is still big dough that is, to the small fry who have to employ all their infantile wiles to wheedle five cents out of the old man. As for adult purchasers, the majority will accent the eight-cent bar in the spirit which has sustained them through so much grievous change. The five-cent bar is dead. Long live the five-cent bar!"

PglTALClTY CANNED FOODS LETTERBOX ROOSEVIXT GYM Editor, Daily News: It was with surprise and dis- may that we read the notice in yesterday's issue tf the Dally .Vews callins for tenders to be received on or before Monday, rune 2, for the demdlltlon of the loosevelt gymnasium. Many questioned the wisdom i this decision last fall but. in he light of present developments, namely, the .celanese riant at nearby Port Edward, we naturally thought the Civic Centre Association had revised the dction. If the Civic Centre AssociaUon feels it cannot oope with the upkeep and operating expenses, ru. r.s would blame it for wishing : sell, lease or lent the building but why tear It down? There will be a crying need for such ' building. The Civic Centre gymnasium n Second Avenue is excellent but cannct now tccommodate Jie nresent crowd cf .ipectators t ba?ketball games and gym dis- ; ilays. With one thousand to five housand more people in the dis- ! ,ii 't. how can this be done? i There Is no space near the Civic Centre to accommodate a i juildinr of the proportions of ; he Roosevelt Park gymnasium. Structural changes or addition 10 the Civic Centre building wuld be wholly inadequate. The old Exhibition Building stood for 30 years, nnheated. re quiring little or iio upkeep. Yet it was there when vrc needed it irgently. It is no longer there. The Roosevelt sym Is there to 'ke its place a better building n every respect. If the old Exhibition Building tood for 30 year.3 surely the Iccsevelt yra can stand for at east another two years until hings develop here.
