Bowles, president of the Northwest Steel Company. He so informed a conference of shipbuilders at the city ball yesterday, and pointed out that in Portland alone from 30,000 to o0,- 000 men now engaged in the shipbuilding industry, would then be thrown out of employment. He believed that by the end of the year similar conditions in regard to the shipbuilding industry would prevail in most of the American coast cities. - BUSINESS ITEMS BRADSTREET'S WEEKLY REPORT IN CANADA Winnipeg—Wholesale and retail trade is fair.

PLAN BIG CITY PUBLICITY CAMPAIGN forced the hands of a few narrow- minded members of the city council who had shown by their previous attempts to wipe out the city publicity department that they did not realize one of the cardinal principles of modern business success—either for a city or an individual. At first glance, one might wonder why Aid. Shelly took such a decided stand on the question of civic publicity and the need for .more than doubling the civic appropriation for that department- this year when all other civric departments were being cut to the bone in the civic estimates. But when the fact is taken into consideration that Aid. Shelly has had several years experience as one of the Van as we'll as Los Angeles or any other city which has capitalized its scenic assets and climate, in the expenditure of that :$50,00'0 this year. • It was with a somewhat bad grace j couver directors of the Pacific Nortli- that the city aldermen finally decided to accept the sporting offer of a committee' of progressive business men last Wednesday and allow the appropriation of $25,000 for the city publicity department to stand on condition that the business men subscribed dollar for dollar towards a campaign of j west Tourist Association, and is not only in close touch with the work of that international organization, but actually knows the concrete results it has accomplished oii a much i more limited campaign of publicity, then it is little wonder that he should be in-j deed loth to see Vancouver, suffer Congratulations are, tlirough a short-sighted, penurious city publicity, also due to Aid.
