The help of both Iwtween socialistic principles COMPROMISING and capitalistic demands, the budget which Sir Stafford Cripps brought down in the British Parliament yesterday, from what we have heard of it so far, appears to be in many ways an admirable document. True, it has aspects of holding up the rich to help the poor, increasing the taxes on investment income and relieving 'further the tax in the lower brackets of earnings, but there is nothing new in that tendency in Britain.

MORE FOR ROADS RUPERT has fared a little better this PRINCE year in its provincial road appropriation and a statement of the district engineer outlines some useful work to be cpne here, on the Queen Charlotte Islands and along up the Skeena River into the Skeena riding. While. wc, of course, must acknowledge what we are getting, it can by no means be said that we are getting"' more than our share. Something better, we might have expected toward the Port Edward hard-surfacing project than the straightening out of loss than a mile of road beyond the city limits. !

I I SNOW REMOVAL 1 AFT Kit all our advocating of a policy of keeping the Skeena River Highway open and clear of snow all winter, it seems a little hard to believe that Hon. K..T. Kenney should have sat as hard as the Vancouver Sun suggests he did upon: W. If. Hrett, the Prince Rupert member, when the latter protested at the failure to keep the road open between Prince Rupert and Terrace during the winter. In fact, we doubt very much if Mr. Kenney was as emphatic as the Sun suggests he was in emphasizing the "enormous expenditure'" which would be needed to keep the highway open and his purported expression as to whether the traffic warranted it. We do not believe that "collossal" is the word to describe the job of keeping snow off the road. Maybe that is not what Mr. Kenney meant or really said. RUSSIA AND FINLAND THE NEW Russo-Finnish friendship and mutual assistance treaty does not appear on the- surface at least to be as objectionable as might have been feared. Finnish troops are not required to fitiht out of their own territory and; Russians will not enter Finland without previous negotiation. Russia does not interfere, we are told at v least, in Finland's internal affairs. Rut Russia , ostensibly does not interfere in the internal afr lairs of other countries which have admittedly come under her domination. Though Finland, it is said, retains her independence, the treaty is certainly enough designed to keep her within the Soviet orbit and the Iron Curtain.

COST OF FAMILY BY THE, TIME a son or daughter becomes eighteen years of age, it has cost the parents $8,000. That is the figure, according to research and statistics, so far as the average family in one city is concerned. Perhaps it strikes you as a shade steep. Well,, let's see! It is certain that none of the fallowing can be avoided although there may be differences of opinion as to actual outlay. It is reckoned that birth will mean an expenditure of $800, food $2,420, clothing $810, shelter $2,000, medical care $.00, school cost $80, and various minor miscellaneous expenses $1,400. live assuiwunui. r r , Users and advertise V';J year one of the trained aud'. ployed by the Bureau make.wn-of record .

Prince Ruperl Daily N's KAIEN CO OP THE RUSSELL The floor plan "of the 'Adams, one of the earliest of the small houses of our present housing series, seemed to have most of the practical features that so many homebullders are seeking today. First it was an expandable house that might start off as a four room bungalow and later grow naturally into a two-storey, three bedroom, six room house. Its simple lines made it not only attractive but economical to build. Its style was early American, which remains probably the favorite architectural style of most home building families. It could have a basement or not, depending on personal preference and climatic conditions. It could be built with or without attached garage. It would fit on a small lot. There wasn't an inch of wasted space. It was a home anyonp might be proud to own. - This week in the RUSSELL Is another house with practically the same floor plan as the popular Adams. In outside appearance it is entirely different but equally charming. The RUSSELL shows the influence of early Dutch settlers of New Amsterdam and of the rich Hudson farm country. It features a high pitched roof and a wide front overhang, both characteristic o the Dutch Colonial style. The inside room arrangement is practically ths same except that the house is turned differently on the lot and the plan is reversed. Living room and kitchen are to the front, the two bedrooms in the rear. It is the simplest" and cheapest type of expandable house. It provides all needed first stage accommodations for the small family on the ground floor. As the family grows two additional rooms and, a second bath are pre-planned for the second floor. It is derived from a proven floor plan used by many professional builders who are always on the alert for good, practical plans that permit low rost construction.
