One of its executive officials has told a Senate sub-committee at 'Washington which is investigating the proposal to repeal or suspend the Jones Act that it is afraid Canadian vessels would drive the American vessels out of the Alaska trade if they were allowed to compete. The reason is, according to the company, that Canadian boats can be operated more cheaply than the American and wages, as might be expected, are particularly cited. Mayhe it would have been more accurate, however, had the company said that the Canadian vessels were operated more "efficiently" than more "cheaply" which is not necessarily implying that the Canadian boats are the zenith of efficiency either. However, Alaskans will tell you that this argument is beside the point. What they resent is that the should be penalized in order that Seattle and the Alaska Steamship Co. may be sustained when they can see the opportunity that exists for more economical transportation by use of Canadian vessels, Canadian railways and Canadian ports more especially the port of Trince Rupert. , operate to thank for a sizeable 'swimming pool it is planned to place in McClymont Park.

There are at least lour times thit number of school teachers having to do only with the juvenile population. I doubt if the total cost of religion to the people of Prince Rupert, including the maintenance of buildings and their heat and light is in excess of thirty thousand dollar. whereas the cost of education soars in the neighborhood of five times this amount per an CAPITAL PUNISHMENT IF THE HOUSE OF LORDS confirms a' bill which I thf House of Commons has approved, British Parliament will have rescinded judicial capital punishment for murder which is as old as the laws of Rritain. The depth of conviction for and against capital punishment was reflected by the fact that, in the House division, party lines were completely crossed, Prime Minister Attlee voting with Opposition Leader Winston Churchill on the losing side. The bill involves abolition of the death penalty except for such offences as treason and piracy. However, the British Parliament is not going all out for the abolition is only for a five-year experimental period. If murder should greatly increase, in that time or if a Parliament of differently-minded people should come in, capital punishment might be restored. num.
