Actually the present contract does not expire for over four years but power supply is a big and long-range thing and, with Prince Rupert now on the threshold of new industrial expansion, there are good reasons why there might be a. .re-settlement before the expiry of the present - Jfitement. The city may feel it desirable to have a permanent settlement made and, of courso, the pow-erYompany itself would probably consider it advantageous to have he matter disposed of with a minimum of delay, particularly in view of the plans it jfc making for immediate and ultimate increase in ttne power supply should it get the call to carry on.

The Soviet 'popular monthly on developments in the physical sciences ("Science and Life,") is exhorting its read- ; .diK to renew the warfare on "religion. The magazine Hn-es that too many Russians, including young people, continue to be churchgoers. The exhortations are also admissions admissions of at least a partial failure to divorce the Rus-sinn from his faith. They will cause no great surprise among eminent western students of Russian history. A French ambassador to the last Czar recorded in his diary that "this people is more religious than its church." And as Sir Bernard Pares pointed out some years ago, this observation applies not only to the masses but also to "the best Russian minds."
