Federal Election? of the Mackenzie King government on DEFEAT a want of confidence motion in the House of Commons at Ottawa, the possibility of which is projected quite definitely in the announced intention of the C. C. F. leader to support a Progressive Conservative amendment to the address in reply to the Speech from the Throne, would, no doubt, precipitate an immediate general election in the Dominion since no other party than the Liberals could by any means command a mandate from Parliament. While it is possible that the government might be defeated if all the opposing elements combined olidly, it is rather questionable that such a combi-Jtion would actually take place. There is no deny- ' the present situation in the House is unsatis-S lory as it stands. Whether or not an election at time would do much to clear the air is a mat- if sorW considerable doubt. It might even and ggiblyvould result in an even more deadlocked on. is unfortunate that this should be the situa-t a -time when it would be so desirable to have ngly-mandated government that does not p worry about its own security. irewell Visit Reading the Ads VLD like to say an 1 1! atlve farewell, of- at least, to W. T. neral superinten-Canadian National British Columbia, have been here two-day visit on j the last, we oeiore nis retire ment but had to turn back because ol the tie-up on the line. During the several yars that he has directed operations of the Canadian National In this province, Mr. Moodie has been a frequent visitor to Prince Rupert. .Courteous, gentlemanly and attentive, he has made many friends here- and we believe he has been one of the railway olficiali who has been sincerely interested In the use of the company's local line and faciliUes and the development of business this way. There are such officials, we admit, in spite of the criticisms we may have madew from, time to time in connection with government and railway policy in regard to the'development of this line. Mr. Moodie, in his quiet and unobstrusive way, was, we believe, one of them. While this is to be Mr. Moodie's last official visit, we bespeak for him a long and happy period of retirement which he has fairly earned and hope that he may come back here again from time to time to renew acquaintances with CFPR fcadio Dial 1240 Kilocyclei (Subject to change) ( TUESDAY P.M. 4:00 Giselle La neche 4:15 Stock Quotations. 4:30 Evening Melodies 4:45 James and John. 5:00 Melodies For Juniors 5:30 "Song of the Islands" 5:45 Norris Trio 6:00 Supper Serenade 6:15 Dinah Shore 6:30 Aristocrat i Cab Time 6:45 T.B.A. 7:00 CBC News 7:15 CBC.

Six years ago, a group of advertisers in the United States started a scientific study of newspaper reading habits to answer that question. Research experts go over an entire newspaper with a representative sample of readers, find out what they read on each page, and the percentage of readers who read any particular item. Nearly one hundred newspapers have been studied this way so far. And what did they find out about the readership of ads? Local advertising is read by as many as 92 percent of the men and 99 percent of the women! The average for 72 newspapers studied was 73 percent of the men and 94 percent of the women which, on the basis of a newspaper with nearly 3000 circulation like the Daily News would indicate that nearly 5000 read the local ads in one issue! his friends in Prince Rupert. It is interesting that the man who we understand is going to succeed Mr. Moodie is very familiar with the situation at Prince Rupert. We refer to Bernard Allen, who lived here as manager of the dry dock during the war years. If any one has an understanding of our problems, aspirations and hopes it should be Mr. Allen.
