THE NEWS has no grudge against, nor quarrel wilh, the Premier management, or any of its shareholders, individually or collectively, but it takes issue on a principle. We understand that J. Killas, a born Greek, from the city of Prince Rupert, has been granted the privilege of operating a pool room aud tobacco stand at the Premier mine. Some call it a concession and this, probably, is the more correct term, for otherwise he would never have been allowed to open up this line of business on Premier property. We understand also that Mr. Killas is the proprietor of a very nice and well established business in Prince Rupert, and we do not doubt but that he is a natuarlized British subject. Both of which are aside from the question. WE BELIEVE in the principle that all foreigners coming into Canada should 'Canada to the men in the trenches from 1914 to 1918? And to the people of Canada as a whole? WHAT is the government of Canada doing, that it allows these things to happen? IF OUR Representatives ir Parliament have the welfare of the country and the people at heart to the extent that they say they have, why do they not see to it that such plums as the incident mentioned are awarded to our own people? WHY cannot legislation be enacted that will force foreign managed corporations as well as Canadian to, when all things are equal, give the preference to our own people? Can it be that these same corporations have strings on our Members of Parliament? COMING closer to home. Does the Premier management wish to infer that Canadians are inferior to foreigners? Or is it that the same management prefers to have foreigners in and around the mine? If not, why did it not give this concession to a Canadian born? Or a man who has served in the Canadian forces overseas? If they do, why should it not be possible for the Government to enact some sort of legislation as mentioned above? Or force the Premier to make a change in management? DO the Guggenheims, or Messrs Keith, Price and other shareholders in the Premier, appreciate the services of the Canadian Soldier in France? Do they appreciate the suffering of the wounded? The sacrifice of the dead? Or the price paid for Victory by the people of Canada as a whole? If they do, why not by a word make such things as the Killas incident impossible? And see to it that the people born in the country, who fought for the country, be given preference?
