Canadian Reciprocity )KIME MINISTER' ST. LAURENT of Canada evidently doesn't want reciprocity with Alaska, n a speech before the House of Commons in Ottawa ic stated that Canada'must keep for herself all the vater power facilities of the upper Yukon River m not grant any of it to a proposed aluminum lant at Skagway. He added that non-Canadians in the northland nust realize they are under Canadian jurisdiction. Very well the same rule should be applied to 1'anadians in Alaska. However, the main tenor of his talk was in-lirectly in opposition to a movement proposed by business interests in British Columbia for mutual inter-trade relations between Canada and Alaska, with the granting of deep-water ports in Alaska for Canada and less red tape restrictions over the boundary line between the two. Perhaps British Columbia and the Yukon district ought to join the United States so that they can pool their common interests with Alaska. It might be well for the prime minister to take another look at his "hole card." He would find that American interests and capital and enterprise have contributed far more to Canada than Canada has to the United States. Moreover, in the interchange of trade relations, Alaska can offer Canada much more than it can offer Alaska. Canada cannot utilize all the potential or any part of the upper Yukon River power without an outlet in Alaska. By denying power to an aluminum plant 'at Skagway it is cutting off its rinse to spite its face., As we have stated before, reciprocity is a two-way path, with equal benefits ttj both sides of the boundary line. ; WHAT NOW, MR. CASEY? I The Editor, j'Ihe Daily News: I So the election is over for another year and we find Mr. Ca.sey still on the council.

No doubt he has his followers, but please, Mr. Ca.sey, get it out of your head that a large cross-; section of the people want soin- i self-congratulation, as she is thown on the paper cover of : the book. !
