iWOULD
CONTROL
PHOTOGRAPHERS
Some
method
of
asserting
!
greater
control
over
transient
professional
photographers
who
visit
the
city
periodically
will
be
sought
by
city
council
at
request
of
the
established
professional
photographer
s
in
i
Prince
Rupert.
The
aldermen
last
night
agreed
that
some
hiethod
of
control
should
be
imposed
both
for
the
protection
of
the
public
and
the
regular
photographic
business
license
holders,
but
were
unable
to
provhle
a
solution
satisfactory
to
the
Municipal
Act
which
controls
business
'
licensing.
:
The
city's
professional
photographers
asked
that
they
receive
some
protection
"from
intermittent
raids
by
out-of-town
photographers
who
are
allowed
to
do
business
merely
by
the
purchase
of
a
trade
license.
!
Alderman
George
Rudderham
piloted
the
discussion
in
support
of
the
suggestion,
declaring
that
"there
are
too
many
of
these
gyppo
photographers
coming
around.''

Like
the
aftermath
of

the
bodies
of

cattle
dot
the
frozen
surface
of
this

near
Ashby,

The

wandered
Into

during
a

Unable

fell
and
perished

INSURJ
Where
Scandinavia?
"
jNOWING
our
good
friends,
the
Scandinavians,
"
l
a
we
do,
and
Prince
Rupert's
population
con-sists
of
a
substantial
percentage
of
them,
we
can
say
with
full
assurance
where
their
sympathy
and
-pf'ntiment
lies
as
between
east
and
west.
So
it
is
no
'
surprise
to
read
a
dispatch
which
suggests
that
all
1'of
them
may
be
in
the
North
Atlantic
Security
al-
1
liance
within
six
months.
Norway
has
already
decided
to
come
in,
the
governing
party
of
Denmark
favors
joining
up
and
only
Sweden's
difficult
position
preents
her
from
at
once
following
the
preponderance
of
her
leaning.
;
Sweden,
to
the
northwest
of
Russia,
is
in
a
gen-'
graphical
situation
much
the
same
as
some
of
the
southeastern
European
nations
which
perforce,
and
-doubtless
unwillingly,
had
to
succumb
to
the
Soviet
pressure.
A
great
difference
between
the
Scandinavian
nations
and
the
Danubian
and
Balkan
states
is,
of
course,
that
the
former
have
a
strong
wall
at
their
back
in
the
solid
west.
Less
stable
and
remote
is
the
situation
for
the
southeastern
nations,
the
possibilities
of
whom
for
support
from
the
democratic
nations
is
much
less
facile
and
who
have
been
much
easier
victims
to
the
Soviet
fnfiliration
and
then
political
subjection
by
mere
weight
of
force.
The
choice
for
the
Scandinavian
nations
is
not
only
the
obvious
one
but
it
is
easier
of
execution
and
support.
'
SCIENCE
'SUCCEEDS'
A
HEADLINE
in
a
Daily
News
of
March
1924,
a
quarter
of
a
century
ago,
reminds
us
of
how
times
change
in
a
relatively
short
space
of
time.
The
headline
heralds
how
the
plan
was
to
broadcast
the
speech
of
the
then
King
from
the
...opening
of
the
forthcoming
British
Empire
Exhibition.
It
told
how
plans
were
being
made
to
.
transmit
the
King's
words
by
long
distance
tele-"
phone
through
wire
and
cable
for
relay
under
methods
and
expedients
which
would
all
seem
so
"
crude
these
days.
Back
in
1924
was
the
year
when
two
round-the-pvorld
flights
were
to
be
attempted
by
short
hop
tages,
Prince
Rupert
being
on
the
route
of
both.
i)ne
was
partially
successful
after
taking
most
of

in
that
regard,"
he
said.
"I
would
like
to
see
prohibition
of
that
type
of
traffic.
I
think
there
should
be
a
$50
business
license
for
the
protection
of
the
citizens
and
the
professional
photographers
of
the
city."
Alderman
W.
F.
Stone
said
that
he
would
like
to
see
such
transient
business
post
a
bond
guaranteeing
good
"faith.
"We
are
here
to
protect
trie
public,"
he
declared.
The
matter
was
tabled
until
the
city's
position
regarding
the
controlling
of
such
'
types
of
business
is
determined.

made
only

Prince
Rupert,
of
course,
notes
the
change.
There
were
mighty
few
radio
receiving
sets
in
Prince
Rupert
in
those
days.
Today
they
blare
everywhere.
To
fly
from
Vancouver
to
Prince
Rupert
was
something
of
a
feat
then.
Few
Prince
Rupert
people
had
even
been
up
in
the
air.
Today
it
is
nothing
to
fly
from
here
to
Vancouver.
Quite
a
few
of
the
people
around
here
have
flown
the
Atlantic.
Long
distance
telephone
was
several
years
to
:
come
for
Prince
Rupert
in
those
days.
Port
Simp-Von
was
about
the
limit
except
for
railway
despatches.
Today
we
just
lift
up
the
receiver
on
our
-
desk
and
put
in
our
calls
to
New
York,
London
and
'
further
afield.
We
were
still
looking
at
the
silent
films
then
and
enjoying
them
too.
And
these
are
only
a
few
of
the
changes
now
as
compared
with
a
quarter
of
a
century
ago.
All
around
us
today
we
see
wonderful
things
which
we
would
have
considered
almost
unbelievable
then.
And
now
the
atomic
age
is
here.
Reflection

M

another
quarter
of

if
