Nobody ever bothers to call for a posse of seeret service men or Motilities to form a bodyguard around our Prime Minister. He often walks to work alone. The truth is that nobody in Canada gets sufficiently worked ! up about anything that a Cana-' dian leader does, or does not do, j to go to elaborate plans to try i to :;hoot him.

There has been a fierce argu Yet, Canada has le.;s than a Ixith Ol tilt Pfcl' Biological Sue.; ' "WEAK OS I'uilii a glaring falsehood, tt.t. ; more cheerfully would it be believed. One Is apt to think of this when reflecting on the extravagant tale of Georve Dupiv uiid Quenlin Reynolds' yarn. DURING the past dozen years most coivinuniitii in Central U.C. and along the C.'K noilh line have enjoyed an unprecedented period of prospeit.y. From Prince Rupert east to the Alberta l otilu' an.! south along the Eraser River to Williams Lake oid-timers and newcomers alike have basked in the glow of an expanding economy. . . . The future is as bright as the past, notwithstanding the current lumber strike which ha brought production to a virtual standstill and is throttling the livelihood of thousands of wage-earners. Businessmen are worried, too. But not the country's pioneers who were conditioned to tlv; present state of affairs by the adversities and disappointments of the first poM.-war depression and the "hungry thirties." The newest crop of pessimists will have to look elsewhere for company and consolation. The men and women who pioneered this country, and their sons and daughters, know that our bountiful natural resources have barely been scratched ; that contemplated gasoline, hydro-electric and pulp mil projects Willi within the next decade, usher in a new era of jirosperity that will dwarf the post-war lumber boom and attract investment funds from the business capitals of the North American continent. The strike will come to an end sooner or later, and the stalled timber industry will again roll forward, probably at a reduced rate. Mists of gloom will evaporate, "business as usual" will again be the slogan, and the country may prove to have been benefited rather than harmed by the temporary business setback. 'Regardless of the duration of the strike, one good purpose will have been served. It will have demons.tra!ed in a ruthless but .effective manner how much we have to depend on the lumber industry for our well-being and happiness. There is no diversity in our economy. All our eggs are in one basket, at the mercy of fluctuations in- the construction industry. For this and otlr.'r reasons it would be both unwise and unrealistic to think only in terms of the lumber, industry in any 'attempt to probe the future of Central B.C. Agriculture, mining and water-power all warrant consideration in any long-range plans for :i future that will surely eclipse that of this or any other era in the history of the country.

Editor's Note: No person gets more than one vote in a municipal election. If a property owner is a businessman and holds a city licence he still only has one vote. If, however, he is a director of a limited company, he may be appointed to vote for that company, but he is casting that vote for the company not for himself. No company has more than one vote. A non-property owner or householder pays a $2 yearly fee for his voting franchise in lieu of the poll tax which has been eliminated in Prince Rupert. ....... , , . anonymous letter. 1 1 . . .
