Mr. Jul.ii.-on referred to the very alert industrial development department of the Canadian National Railways, always looking out to encourage in the location of new industries on company lines. If any spurring of the industrial department with a view to promoting Prince Rupert's interests, is needed, it sounded like Mr. Johnson is going to do it.

A DULL CONVENTION with the Republican scene three COMPARED weeks ago, Philadelphia, on the occasion of the Democratic national convention, appears to be having just another quiet three days. Never probably has the old party ever gone into convention - in such an atmosphere of dfeatism and dissension. When General Eisenhower finally and irrevocably refused last week to be a candidate, the nomination of President Harry Truman became a virtual certainty. There may be a bit of an uprising for the not inappropriately named Pepper of Florida but it will probably not amount to much as far as vote opposition to Truman is concerned. It will be Truman for it and there is undoubtedly an al-' most unanimous opinion among observers of the . political scene that the candidature of Truman will cook any poor chances the Democratic party ever . had in this presidential content. So the Democratic ; national convention is a very dull and uninspiring , affair. Q How can I prevent the food chopper from sliding around the table when using it? A.

C BUSINESS AND PROFESSK BRITISH COAL EXPORT BRITAIN'S coal production program is in difficulties again and householders are being asked to help eke out supplies. Fuel Minister . Gaitskell recently warned this "really must not go on" and has called for fuel economies. His words came as a nhock to consumers, who had been cheered by large stocks carried over from ' last year's mild winter. There were enough supplies to permit exports to be resumed, but recently pro- duction has sagged, and there has been an increase in the consumption of "large coal," which is the kind that the export market wants. Savings had to be made and production in- creased, Gaitskell said, if the coal export program ; of 10,00(1,000 tons for 1948 was to be reached. He expressed concern about the output of deen-mineel coal, which had been expected to yield 200,000,000 tons of the year's 211,000,000-ton target: The i whole outlook was not so good as it was. " It ha.d been hoped that production in the five weeks following May 1 would be 19,200,000 tons, but it had been only 18,600,000. Manpower in the - mines had not increased, output per manshift had declined and attendance which always drops in winter because of illness had not improved, "Achievement of the coal export program is "in the balance and nothing but a sustained effort on the part of all concerned can bring us through," he saiel. The main impact of anv failure by Britain to attain the 1948 target of 211,000.000 tons is likely to be on the export program. This program is one of the pivote on which the struggle to balance British overseas payments turns. If Britain fails with coal, it may well fail altogether.
