Although intended primarily to be a warning cervies which will assist in defending the country avainst invasion from the alr, the GOC network vals has considerable peacetime value. Composed of observation posts manned by volunteer sky- Watehers and scattered strategically over a wide . ares, the system can serve asa real aid in reporting wdreratt ih distvess. The observers have direct com- munieation with a tlter control station—which in vay ease will be Incated at Prince Rupert—and this ih tain is in constant touch with an RCAF control centre, Ths in the shortest possible time a crashed or disabled aireraft will be reported, its location viven and assistance will be on the way. . Since the GOC detachment up here will also re- ceive reports from snips, lighthouses and weather | stations, it will have additional value in assisting rescé at sex. For some time now the impression hay exited locally—and with good reason—that the reporting of ships in distress and the direction of rescue work have been left largely to chance. With the absence of a coust guard service causing in- creased ansiety in this respect, the Chamber of Commerce has actively concerned itself with the problem and optained a statement trom the | val GOC commanding officer which puts the matter in 4 more reassuring light. The statement confirms that reporting ships, as well as aircraft, in distress, is a primary peacetime function of the Corps. When the detachment here is organized, word in such in- stances will be flashed immediately to Vancouver where the RCAF search and rescue co-ordination centre will put the machinery of help into action. Gn the remote and often stormy part of the coast, the importance of organized communications ix vital. So in peace or war, the GOC will have its work laid out and its value assured. Mr. Sloan's Commission id THE Provincial Government has given Chief Jus- ! ice Sloan an admirable arid unlimited assign- met to study every aspect of British Columbia's forest problems. = - , In his wide terms of reference he can ascertain precisely what forest wealth the public owns, how tust it is being used, and whether it is being ade- quately reproduced. He can‘also tonsider Whether the forest management system is working out as he originally intended when he proposed it nearly. ten years ago. There is, infact, no part of our Forest policy beyond the Chief Justice's reach. “The Government hag acted wisely in drafting thigscommission. St would have been still wiser if it Kad appointed more than one commissioner and thns allowed the Chief Justice to share an onerous Lurden of decision with other men. equally able. jut having decided on an investigation by one man, the Government quite properly has not tied his hands in any way. The public, therefore, may expect another monumental report from Myr, Sloan in due time—probably not fora year or two—and | "n it perhaps, an improved forest policy can be ruil, , ‘ Meanwhile every interest and every point’ of view ro loubl will ke given full consideration by the investigatay and every Aeheet in the present policy chonid be fullyexpabed 7 yyy Fie! —Victoria Times.
