He is James Milan who, at 23, has already i walked off with most of the honors this country is ;tl.l to f ive its musicians of promise. Three year? ui'o he won the tjrand aw ard in a CBC singing stars i contest which, in addition to giving him. a 26-week j radio contract, brought him to the attention of conductor Sir Ernest MacMillan who shortly after- ! wards was assigning him to solo roles in his conceits. In making it possible for Prince Rupert to share the pleasure of hearing artists of this sort, the Alaska Music Trail Auxiliary is performing a service for the city which all will appreciate. While we have not in the past been on the main circuit of entertainers on tour, there is no reason why this should continue. Other more northern cities like Edmonton and Saskatoon have been making similar bids for attention, with the result that artists should not find themselves with a large gap in their schedule if they swing north in their travels. Those who have performed in the Alaska Music Trail concerts have found an increasingly warm welcome at Prince Rupert. We are sure Mr. Milligan will be glad he came. Fishermen Need Protection j POINT of considerable importance to west j A coast fishing was raised the other day in' the ; House of Commons during debate on the bill to ! protect coastal fisheries. Prompted primarily by the encroachment of European fishing vessels into Canadian territorial waters of the eastern seaboard, the bill nevertheless has an application to the Pacific coast which merits consideration. ; The point was raised by G. R. Pearkes, VC, member for Nanaimo, who remarked that "no great help will be given to the fisheries industry of the Pacific coast unless Canada defines quite clearly her territorial responsibility over the waters adjacent to the coast." Z By way of elaboration, Mr. Pearkes pointed out there is no firm definition of the three-mile limit which is presently accepted by general international agreement. If it is taken to mean three miles from the mainland coast, two of B.C.'s best fishing areas are excluded Queen Charlotte Sound and Hecate Strait. T. Unless provision is made in the bill to protect for Canada these valuable inland waters which are rightfully .hers, serious harm may b$ inflicted on our Pacific fishing industry. Competition is sufficiently keen as it is, having already reached the point where canned fish of foreign brand may be purchased in our own province. A practical solution would be the establishment of a well-defined line which presumably would require international sanction running northwest off the coast of Vancouver Island in such a manner that it would also clear the Queen Charlotte Islands. Besides providing B.C. fishermen with needed protection in these waters a line of this sort would clear up existing doubts about what belongs to us and what does not.
