THERE S one thing at least which the © On the other hand, in the much larger group, the ones selling the stan- dard-sized American cars from the Big Three there were. plenty of squawks. Their sales were away down and some of thém thought there could have been more help and more nation- al advertising from the manufactur- ers. Moreover a considerable number did not look for much sales improve- ment with the introduction of the 1959 models or in total sales next year. When it came to specific reasons from this major group, however, there was a sharp difference from the views that have been widely circulat ted. Pri- marily ‘these dealers blamed. the dé-— pression for their troubles or more particularly the talk of depression. ears for cash. Few of those interview- ed blamed thé slump in sales on either the size, glitter or the cost of the cur- Jail for disqualified drivers them to be permitted to drive. “Many of those disqualified have displayed a contemptuous disregard of the court orders, and some of the magistrates have been far too lenient with them. There are cases on record of offenders being convicted as many as five times of driving while under suspension and still being let off with relatively in- consequential fines. That sort of treatment fails to sat- isfy the requirements of public safety or to encourage respect for authority. Drivers with no sense of responsibility when they read press reports of such cases being disposed of by means of small fines are apt to conclude that it is worth taking a chance. A jail sen- tence is a different story; and the punishment is not unduly harsh. Driv- ‘ing while disqualified is a wilful, pre- meditated act of defiance for which there can be no excuse. —The Victoria Colonist. that area attractive to motorists for parking will he a vast relief. The po- sition of these attractive stores has been an unenviable one and something that has involved a degree of unfair- ness to those who located in good faith, Eventually, of course, the position of these lower level stores will be almost a preferred one, as the city’s growth plan unfolds, That day will be nearer — when the office building is completed and the future government buildings are open and doing business, Then the paved mall will not be a “back yard” but the centre of things in the City Centre, Kitimat’s growth having been slowed down temporarily, those TIME ‘AND PLACE A trip to Kitwancool country | = centennial | specificially . ‘members .. of the - + 2 roe a Charles Durham celebrated’ his 97th birthday “yesterday. Today The Daily News is publishing an article written by, , In-about the yéar 1905, Dan Olsen and Jim Bates were camping With us On our ranch at Kitselas Canyon... , interested in this business. I told them that I had heard, from a Gus. Sampere, a res- . ident of the Indian Village at Kitwanga, that he had seen some good sized flakes of placer gold in a little stream- tributary’ of. the ‘Kitwancool River: Although it was late . aut- umn we decided to make a trip up to this place and do a “bit of prospecting around there. We took one of my canoes, and Dan Olsen, Jim Bates, my son Fred, and myself start- ed off up the Skeena. | i Dan Was a Swede from Neb-_ “‘raska, and one of the: strorig® est men I have ever seen, he was so powerful on the tow- — line that we made a quick trip to Kitwanga, where we left the canoe, and star hike up the Kitwancool River.. We took an old Indian trail. This trail was so narrow that one had difficulty in get- ting along, in fact it was only possible by putting one foot directly in front of the other that one made it, It was worn right down, like a wagon rut. I had travelled this trail be- fore though, when employed by the government as a fish- ery Guardian, and remember | once when an oid porcupine had got into the rut ahead of me and couldn’t get out. I camp for the night, the In- py. The next day we prospected on the creck by which we were camped, It was very late in the fall, and the weather got very wild, so we thought we had ‘better make for home, Next morning we broke camp and started down towards Kit. wanga, the Indians still fol- lowing but not bothering ua, until we reached Kitwancoo) Village, where one India’ who knew me slightly, atepped forward and asked if we Ine tended to return.
