MORTIMKIt 324 2nd Ave. fNear CFPR. yllcan Big Concern IDEA of the scope of the Aluminum Company's AN operations may be drawn from its . .most recent annual report. Excerpts follow: "During 1948, the subsidiary and associated ' companies of the Aluminum Co. of Canada Limited conducted operations in mining, smelting and semi-. ... fabricating in some 23 countries of the world. . They marketed their products in more than 80 countries, virtually in every country of the world, except Soviet Russia. Primary aluminum shipments from Canada were consigned to 37 countries. "Despite the high level of activity in 1948, the sup- ply of aluminum was not sufficient to meet -the strong world demand which was called forth by a combination of factors. One was the continuing shortage of competing materials, another the high level of construction, and the third (of fundamental importance) the widespread popularity and ac- : ceptance of aluminum, by virtue of its natural ad-; vantages in a greater variety of uses." THEO COLL ART RUPERT mourns the loss of another of PRINCE its good pioneer citizens in the passing in his native Belgium in the town where he was born of J. J. T. (better known as "Theo") Collart. He is another of those enthusiastic pioneers who . came here forty odd years ago and put their " means, their confidence and their energy into the building up of the community. Today their ranks are rapidly thinning just as the vision they saw of .- -the great future of this city and district is com- -mencing to be realized. """"r ""- It is but the irony of history that the pioneers, - 7 who do much like Mr. Collart and so many others have done, should pass on before they are able to reap the reward and satisfaction of relizing the things for which they worked and strived to see the culmination of their confidence and their beliefs. ... Like many others, Theo Collart, in his own way, helped conscientiously and effectively in the building up of the city in which he spent the past years of his life. He will be missed by many friends, particularly those of the "good old days." He was a good soldier and a good citizen. Sympathy is extended to his son, Robert, and other relatives.
