AKRAY OF OPPOSITION FrHlay, October IB. 1026 There is a gallant array of opposition to the proposals Gl IJritush Columbia and Alberta that justice be done those provinces in the matter of railway rates. It is powerful op- position but right is on the side of the west and this must eventually win, so why not now PRINCE RUPERTS TAXES . Prince Rupert's tax rate is not as high as a great many cities of British Columbia. The cities having higher rates are Chilliwack, Cranbrook, Greenwood, Merntt, Nanai-mo, New Westminster, Pori Alberni, Port Coquitlam, Prince George and Slocan. A number of others approach very closely to the Prince Rupert rate, among them being North Vancouver, Kossland, Victoria, Alberni and Kam loons. Burnaby heads the list of municipalities with a rate of ua mills on the dollar. RUSSIA'S ARMY There is so much conjecture about Russia's fighting strength that it might not be'out of place here to mention: that her army numbers approximately a million and a , ouftrtr o.trained soldiers and added to that is about five million reserves.

There are still quite a few scoffers who take delight in trying to belittle the efforts of the League in the interests of world peace. These no doubt will suggest that this is a mighty big sum for a big talking pow-wovv which has little practical effect in world politioa The unjirejudiced observer, however, will be of quite a different opinion. He knows that not only has the League done more for international peace than any agency devised byjTn, but that it has been active in actually preventing, ten European wars singe 1918. That is a fine record, but it is not the whole story. The League has created a new atmosnhere in interrmtinnril Hinlnmnpv togcthe- the world's greatest statesmen in annual confer- "o witch ciuci (icub in iuiuimu wo uie minimum that secret diplomacy which for centuries has been a potent source of distrust, suspicion and war. It is possible that any sane man or woman will cavil against an expenditure of five million dollars as a world insurance fund against war? The cost of one dreadnaught is from $15,000,000 to $35,000,000. The cost to the whole world of a single week in the late war was $100,000,000: Sueh comparisons could be continued indefinitely and thoy would show in the final analysis that more than one-third ol all taxes in all countries can be traced to the last great conflict.

BOX OT SAM-BUS IIAKDTI Battle Honors Are Awarded To Most Regiments North B. & Regiment Entitled to Use a Number of Names Emblazoned 'on .Colors OTTAWA, Oct. 17: - In the supplementary list of Battle Honors which militia regiments are entitled to emablazon on their colors and on the colors of the Canadian Expeditionary Force units which such regiments perpetuate. 160 battalions re disposed of, thus reducing the number still to be dealt with to a small figure. The Department of National Defence today has caused the information regarding those battle awards to be published in District Headquarters Orders. Heading the supplementary list is the Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry who, In their 1015 selection, carry the envied honor. "Frezenberg." The Patricia's alwe of Uvt .Canadian troops which operated in France are entitled to this particular award. Three militia regiments, nine Canadian corps infantry battalions, 126 reinforcing battalions of the CMJP., four Canadian corps Machine Gun Battalions, and four macnine gun units of the active militia, six pioneer battalions, one mi i battalion 6f railway construction teeglments of the Canadian CavaltyiGuelph, Ont., and Halifax, N.8. troops and gour forestry units rare dealt with In this second list. Additional to these are the 259th and 26Qth Battalions who receive Xhe award "Siberia." An analysis of tne awards shows that all the battalions of the Canadian Corps, with the .sole jyc-l&Uattrolrthe Sth'iBriUgJilupi-Bfirl Battalion have now received their color' honors. It -also dii-ofcvses that only one infantry battalion has rejected all of the 1.918 1 Dames irom its color, including ' Amiens," "Drocourt-Queant" and 1 "Canal du Nord." This is the 2nd I Battalion, perpetuated by the Peterboro Rangers. The official list jxavjeals thai in their .places those re&ponslbie for the selection have chosen the less definite "Hlnden-burgh Une" to represent all the fighting wheiein this unit participated in 1913. Every other battalion of the Canadian dorps has selected "Amiens." which, as Lu-dendorff said, was "the black dav of the Geanan Army." In view of the fact That the 2nd Battalion fought 1hugh Amiens on Aug. 8 nd 9, IMS. to the peak of the Canadian penetration and culminated their efforts by capturing , Rouvroy en Samerre, which marked the limit of the Canadian advance on the second day of the : battle, the rejection of r' Amiens" as a color honor is unique. The Canadian Light Horse is the only cavalry regiment that has fulled to Accept "Amiens." In 1918 however, toe CJL.1I. were "Corps Troops" ag distinguished from the ftltn 1 JTJmL I 4 Brigade. , In general-all pf . the 1st Division battalions have selected 6t. Ju-lien" and -'Festubert;" which, in the nature or things, are honors -to which only the 1st Division are entitled. The great majority of the ; battalions .begin their list at "Mount Sorrel," which embraces all the fighting in the Ypres Ba-ilent in June. 1916. The Somme, Vlmy Ridge, Hill 70, Passchendaele, Amiens, Drooourt, Queant and Canal du Nord, together with The Pursuit to Mons. represent In the I main the 10 color honors which most of the perpetuated imttaUona I of the Canadian Corps will carry. .The reinforcing battalions for the most part obtain the general ! award "The Great War" with the ' 'year period inserted. ; Prince Kuper j Prince Rupert is represented In I mant and units whose territorial aiftliatlon don bee extends to several widely separated localities such sxs: 259th Battalion (Canadian Rlf-1 lesi XJ.E.F., .which served In Siberia i was recruited from Kingston, Lon Toronto, Montreal and Que- TlHERE, oh where, have I tasted such r y vegetable soup before . . . when did such a delicious aroma as this come my way . . .
