Smith, visiting the city on his way to London where he is to assume the post of industrial and trade representative of the province ;of British Columbia, said that it was economically unsound that, in the newly opening era of industrial decentralization, Vancouver should be a congested bottleneck of industry and traffic such as jt;had now become. That Prince Rupert and central British Columbia consisted the logical new channel was Col. Smith's opinion and it was along this line that he would preach when he got to England, he declared. It was interesting to hear this assertion from a Vancouver man and member of a well known business family of that city. It is logical enough, at that. Indications have not been lacking, indeed, of a Change of attitude in Vancouver with respect to Prince Rupert. The old Vancouver spirit of taking (everything itself and letting the rest of the province, particularly the north, get along as well as it might as long as it paid tribute appears to be passing away. It will be a good thing for Vancouver and the whole of the province when it disappears entirely. We have long held in these columns that there Js room for another important port on this coast besides Vancouver namely Prince Rupert. Changing economic conditions may before long now bring about along naturally gravitating lines the development and use of this port and district in the way which we have pictured for nearly forty years. They Were Wrong Should Be Unseated FEW MONTHS AGO when A OPA was killed in the United States a measure of inflation did come but in no time at all it ran headlong into the old tough law of supply and demand. In no time at all the inflation tide turned, says an exchange. That is what happens when under uncontrolled competition goods come on the market plentifully. That is what must happen in any country whose resources and productive capacity can take care, and more than take care, of its reasonable consumption. '. People who talk of inflation coming to this continent as' it came to Germany after the Ifirst World War and as it has come to Europe since the close of the last war, talk obvious nonsense. Nonsense, because this continent, with its vast resources, its enormous plant, plus its supp of labor, can't be compared with countries where a prostrate industrial life' makes for a scarcity of goods that inevitably brings inflation. "What immediate consequence would come from a sudden sweeping away of all price controls in Canada, we do not Teach Sea-Cooks Culinary Secrets LONDON, KB Sea-cooks and their assistants should undergo special training before they start dishing but meals afloat, says a report issued by the Merchant NAvy Training Board. There should be a four-month 1-744C SHOULD BE unseated, HE says the Peterborough Examiner of Fred Rose, M.P., who was convicted in the espionage trials. "Rose's protest is rooted in the impudent contempt for our system of government which is a part of communism in Canada. He would think it very clever, no doubt; to treate a rumpus in the Commons over his case, and perhaps enlist the support of a few of the more addlepat-ed champions of civil liberties. Most decidedly Rose should be denied the satisfaction of any such argument; if he is permitted to represent Cartier-Montreal while in jail for treacherous dealings, our governmental system must be as silly as he thinks it is. know nor does anybody else. What the United States seems to tell is that there would come nothing like the upheaval pictured by some; and it might very well be that, within a reasonably brief time, some prices would decline. What many people overlook is that under fixed prices a maximum price also becomes a minimum price. course in catering ashore and for those who had not been to sea, instruction in seamanship and lifeboat work.

GOING 20 IN PUBLIC UTILITIES, INDUSTRIES, ETC WAt IN FARM AND URIAN MORTGAGES LETTERBOX CASEY'S FIRST ROUND Editor, Daily News: Under normal circumstances it should not be necessary for one holding public office to resort to the press in order to state his case t the public. But in this my first battle in the 1947 council, I feel it necessary to do so as I am surrounded by a wall of concrete in' the form of a mayor and .seven aldermen. The editor of the Daily News on January 13 in an effort to assist in arousing public interest in city affairs, made mention of the humiliation Imposed on Mr. Phillips through the attack instituted by myself. Let that be as it is but let it not be forgotten that, the taxpayers and general public rave endured disappointment and humiliation for a long time in listening to the echo of Mr. Phillips voice restated in council by our worthy aldermen operating under an oath of fidelity to the public. Insofar as a certain job being done under estimated cost is concerned, this seems to mean nothing in particular. As for an engineer expecting to carry out the work allowing ample in esti mating to cover unforeseen obstacles, that often is never en countered. I myself have performed work and comnleted a job for one-third the engineer's estimate and made over $28 per day while doing it a thing that is common to all contracts. In conclusion I wish to state the end is not yet. The battle is still on. We have only had the first encounter In the war fcr value in return for money spent. GEO. B. OASEY.
