S 00 Highway Opens RUPERT MOTORISTS were suddenly PTUNCE thrilled with the unexpected arrival yesterday afternoon of the first car of the season to be driven through from Terrace.

When we looked at the hujje snows that buried the road for many miles hack in January, we had thought that it might he much later than this before -we would he drivaig; to the interior this year. As it is, it is only a day or so later than in 194S and, in spite of the heavy weight of snow which lay over . the road in the dead of winter, the highway, it is . stated, has not been severely damaged. More -maintenance equipment, including- n' large new gravel crusher which will make it possible to -spread crushed rock over the road for the first time, has Wen installed. Motorists and tourists alike will le able to enjoy better driving: conditions than-ever before existed, it is anticipated. ARCHIBALD CLEARS HIMSELF NO MATTER whether they agree with him politically or not, the people of his riding: of v ill feel gratified at "Harry Archibald, the Socialist -Member of Parliament, having- made his position clear in regard to the Atlantic Pact. No little alarm hail been felt by the loyal people of Skeena iit the reports, which now appear to have been mispleading -if not entirely erroneous, that the local member had been opposed to the pact. Certainly such a -stand would have leen inconsistent with views of nil shades of political color, with the -exception of the Red Communists. It is a relief to know that all the Ii.C. members, including Mr. . Archibald, approved the pact when it came up for the vote as 'Parliament last night concluded its business prior to dissolution and Die holding of the .general election. atory.

Canada, Belgium, the Netherlands, 'Luxembourg, France and Norway pledge distance to one another in the event of attack by v. -an aggressor, will provide the first effective check to the Soviet plan for conquering the world: The pact will do much to revive confidence and to re-. establish faith-sinee the end of the war so cloe to extinction. - Once again there is a balance of power. The : democratic nations can show a population. and an rarmed strength almost equal to the known resources of the Russian war bloc. So long as this balance can be retained there will be peace in the world. The maintenance of strong military force will , be a drain upon our democratic economies, but the ".costs of peace are never so high as the terrible costs of modern w ar. Behind the protection of the Atlantic Pact the democratic nations can set their - minds and productive strengths to furthering. the progress, of mankind.
