Materials are being stockpiled and the organization of per- sonnel in connection with the construction is under "'way. One of these days there will be an announce-ftf&nt of the letting of contracts and things will then begin to really hum. Possibly we in Prince Rupert are not fully appreciative even yet of the vast difference this project is going to make to the business and economic set-up of the city. Within the next few weeks it will probably begin to grow upon us and things will be happening, like they did during the war, before we really realize whaf is going on. Fact is, Prince Rupert is due for a boom this . .year a boom happily founded on legitimate development and exploitation of the country. We 1 ou Id be thinking seriously about whether we are "aliTe or are even prepared to cope w ith the new demands that will be thereby imposed upon us as a . community. i AVe do not need to be wondering any more about m nether or not we are going to have big industrial development here.

Vancouver ELLIOTT AND HIS LAWYER Elliott Roosevelt was in conference with his lawyer at Poughkrepsie, N Y., before appearing in the office of Dutchess coXinty district Attorney W. Vincent Grady where, after e private half-hour interview, it, was announced that "the investigation is terminated and the matter closed." Pictured atnve is Elliott with his lawyer, Joseph A. Me-Cabe. Both Etiiou an - ms w4ie, Faye Emerson, vigorously denied that the left wrist wound of the latter was self-inflicted. w a: Six Nations who shared in Can Canadian Club last night in First Presbyterian Church by Rev. George E. Sendall. I.", a pleasant, conversational style, Mr. Sendall recounted experiences not only in the various' camps in Germany, Memeland and Poland but also as a navigator on bombing operations which culminated in escape from a flaming Halifax near Amsterdam and subsequent capture and incarceration "for the duration." An audience of reasonable numbers, presided over by Mrs. T. N. Youngs, listened with interest and appreciation to Mr. Sendall's discourse ar.d would gladly have heard more of his story. How the bombing airman was equipped fur every emergency including that of being forced down in enemy territory was told by the speaker who went on to describe his first flight over enemy territory an expedition to drop leaflets on the French city of Orleans which ended in losing the way noire and the fortuitous petting back to base with the aid of London searchlights.

ROOM 10, STONE y LUMBER'S PROBLEM THE RHtish Columbia lumber industry faces some T tough problems in finding markets this year, it was confirmed by Minister of Lands and "Forests E. T. Kenney in an address from Victoria Monday night. The statement of the minister that there is ho immediate demand for at least fifteen percent , of the logs cut last year and that a considerable proportion of them may be wasted may well cause some concern. "We must solve the problem of locating new-markets to absorb the major portion of the 40 percent of the province's lumber production which in rdcent years has been sold to the United Kindom," the minister observed, holding that an expansion of pulp and paper manufacture might materially help in the readjustment and maintenance of the ; industry. Meantime, a ministerial suggestion is that the industry fccale down its logging operations to a i point more nearly in line with foreseeable demand, j Fortunately, with the new developments in this I particular area, an expansion rather than a cur-! tajlment of logging operations may be anticipated.

The obduracy of Chiang-Kai-Shek and his " ill-scented Kuomintang made it undesirable if not impossible to render aid. As for the people of China . themselves Communist domination, it is reasonable to assume, will be no worse than what they have ' been having. And probably to the average citizen of the world the advent of some measure of "peace to China after I its twelve years of strife will be something of a re-; lief even if the political complexion of the new re-; gime in that long-suffering land may be not -entirely gratifying and palatable.
