at
the
Taj,
not
as
a
worthy
home
for
the
beloved
Mumtaz
but
as
a
building
to
be
thought
about
and
see
how
it
can
be
so
wonderously
beautiful.
If
you
could
see
it
by
moonlight,
it
is
a
sight
you
would
never
forget.
In
fact
as
I
have
mentioned,
its
beauty
makes
It
seem
impossible
not
to
be
known
about
and,
when
known
of,
never
to
be
forgotten.
"And
ever
in
the
womb
of
that
white
roof.
Echoes
sigh
round
and
round,
low
murmurlngs,
Voices
aerial

a
word

A
footfall.

But
if
some

if
some
soft

be
played,
Some
verse
or

Or

the
white
walls
listen
close.
And
take
that
music,
and
say
note

note
Softly
again;
and
then
re-echoing
themselves
Reverbrate
their
melting
antiphones,
Low
waves
of
harmony
encountering

"And
rippling
on

And

The

Editor,
Daily
News:
While
listening
to
our
local
radio
quiz
program,
last
Friday
evening,
I
heard
the
question
asked:
'"Where
is
the
Taj
Mahal."
Eagerly
I
awaited
the
response
and
when
it
came
so
slowly
I
was
very
disappointed.
To
the
average
person
this
may
have
an
egoistic
tendency
of
appearance.
None
such
was
felt.
It
was
amazement
that
so
wonderful
a
structure
could
be
known
so
little
about.

its
beauty,
through
the
medium
of

paper
it
may
be
kind
to
pass
on
to
our
young
school
age
children
a
little
of
Its
history.
Along
the
Strand
Road,
and
just
outside
of
Agra,
near
Delhi,
is
the
Taj
Mahal.
It
is
built
in
picturesque
repose
on
the
bank
of
the
Jumni
River.

I
have
been
made
before
that
the
Prince
Rupert
city
police
department
should
have
a
radio-aquip-ed
car.
Certainly,
such
an
item
of
equipment
could
do
much
to
make
for
more
efficient
and
speedy

service
with
the
limited

available.
For
some

now
such

cities
as
Ketchikan
and
Juneau,
smaller
and
much
more
compact
than
Prince
Rupert,
have
had
their
radio-equipped
police
cars
and
have
found
them
very
useful.
Prince

is
growing
rapidly
these
days.
It
is
getting
away
from
the
real
small
town
status
and,
with
the
increased
population,
are
coming
the
good
as
well
as
the
bad.
With
increased
industrial
activity,
larger
payrolls,
additional
people,
more
crime
may
be
anticipated
and,
accordingly,
greater
and
more
efficient
police
protection
will
be
needed.

"BALONEY"
Editor,
Daily
News:
In
your
article
printed
in
th
Daily
News
of
April
(;,
"Persecution
Exaggerated,"
you
state
that
the
special
committee
of
the
Prince
Rupert
Chamber
of
Commerce
reported
the
suggestions
of
persecution
by
the
Pul-ice
of
Native
visitors
as
a
lot
of
"baloney."
Th
i
s
committee
would
like
to
bring
to
your
attention
and
the
public
that
this
statement
was
completely
erroneous
and
at
no
time
was
the
word
"baloney"
or
similar
words
used.
The
committee
from
the
very
beginning
accepted
the
investigation
as
a
serious
matter
and
made
every
attempt
to
give
the
report
the
respect
of
which
it
was
deserving.
They
advised,
that
within
the
limits
of
their
investigation
they
had
been
informed
of
perscution
but
for
every
case
so
reported
there
were
dozens
of
cases
in
which
unruly
natives
were
treated
very
fairly
and
protected
I
rom
persecution.
Why
the
Daily
News
should
attempt
to
antagonize
a
group
of
people
who
already
feel
oppressed
is
beyond
our
reasoning.
Although
the
committee
do
not
need
an
apology,
they
feel
that
an
apology
is
in
order
to
the
Native
population.
Will
you
kindly
give
this
letter
publication
in
balance
with
the
original
article?
