Mav I dike a line or two here to offer my sincere congratulations to Prince Rupert's indefu-tiguable Mrs. j. 8. Black upon her election as Provincial President of the Legion W.A.

Most liunortant f nil, the PCs have finally settled down hi a lonw-ranwe Parliamentary policy. They have dedicated themselves to the single aim of being the party of free enterprise in Canadian polities. The old dream of being all things to all people has been abondoned. The PCs never want another rude awakening .such as that dream brought to them after the last election. The PCs know they have a long distance to travel . before they are even within striking dlstanre of a return to power. But th"y feel that they really are on the way. They haven't (;ot that feeling of utter hopelessness any more, j And the CCF and the Social Credit? A word about their reactions to the session in tomor-Uow's Diary.

We hope that in ionder-ing the matter mem hers of the committee will take Into consideration the old adage that an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure. The majority iif Prince Rupert driverr, drive according to 1 lie-laws of the land, giving and taking where necessary and showing natural courtesy holh to pedestrians and other drivers. However, there is in our midst a hreed of drivers who haven't the foggiest conception of how to behave behind the wheel of a car and once there know even less about how to operate the vehicle in traffic. These drivers: Pull up on your right at a red light and when you go straight ahead and expect them to turn right promptly shoot alongside you and try to get ahead; Pull up on your left at a red light when you're planning a right turn, and then try to make a right turn also across your hows; Are afraid to roll down the window on a rainy day and stick part of a hand out as a signal ; Stop on a flashing amber light, go through a flashing red light and ignore what stop signs ' there are in town; Pass j ou at high speed on the main streets and then promptly pull up in front of you to 'park; Now that Second Avenue has been judged not - to be a through street, sail into Second Aven- ue without looking to left or right and without a moment's pause; 6 Stop in the middle of a street to make conversation' with a friend, (usually also in a car). . : With these menaces abroad and apparently unapprehended, preventative measures are necessary to protect the innocent. The average sane driver not only is careful himself but tries to keep track of what other drivers do and tries to anticipate what they are planning. If" signals are made properly, guesswork is not necessary. Put with the above listed morons, even a clairvoyant is at a loss. Stop signs are needed on streets entering both S'econd and Third Avenues at least between Mc-Hride and Seventh Streets with the exception of the Civic Centre corner where the present stop sign is ample. Too costly says city council ? No money budgeted for such a contingency'.' Not half as costly as the life of a child or an elderly person who couldn't possibly read the mind of a driver who doesn't know enough to pull over to the right hand side of the road if he's going to make a right-hand turn. OF CAR'S POWI purposes of the mission were: To ' promote goodwill between Can-! ada and the varlom countries; to make personal contacts with gov-: ernnient officials, Importers, flour millers, processors and bok- j cm. nnd discuss mutual prob-' lems: to give information on Canadian grain; and to study I markets to encourage their re-j tentlon and expansion.

Author Quentin Reynolds is suing Pepler for $500,000 libel damages based H1 a 194!) Pegler column that called Reynolds "yellow" and an "absentee war; correspondent." Reynolds also contends the column Intimated he was pro-Communist. Reynold has denied the allegations. I-niils Nizer, Reynolds' lawyer, quoted this exchange from 111'1 pretrial examination of Pegler: Q. "Would you say that a .tatenunt 'Communism Is th-reaction to poverty, oppression and the exploitation of the masses by the few and represents the demands of the masses for a strong central authority to curb their enemies" is a pro-Cimmiiin-liit statement?" .
