(Special)—  The city council, at its last mef>t:ni:  •lassod a civic'building bylaw,' which  now brings. Prince. George" in-line with  other cities in the province in the  matter of supervision of building construction.  The by-law enacts that all contractors or others, before they erect.  move or alter a building, must first  apply at the City Hall for a building permit. The requirements which  must be observed are lengthy,,but are  the ordinary precautions drawn up in  other cities for similar measures, and  p.re easily understood  by contractors.  WILL  NOT  DEMOLISH   OLD  POLICE STATION  AS YET  Although the civic health and building committee at its meeting on Monday, was in receipt of a joint recommendation from City Building Inspector P.ird and City Medical Health Officer Dr. Underbill, that the old, dilapidated police station on Powell  street should be pulled down, the aldermen decided to refer the demolition pf the building to next year's  council. In Wie meantime the old  building is liable to collapse some  windy night, or should there be a  heavy ?no\v:'."\ll d'.:rin^ the coming  winter, the roof of the structure is almost sure to cave in.  It was intimated by Aid Crone that.  the city rnnj- utilize a portion of the  s>pace under the Georgia viaduct in  the near future either as a civic or  public garage by closing in the sides  of the structure. -It was conceded that  if concrete or tile sides were built  under a section of' t(he viaduct it  would make an ideal fire-proof garage.

INFLUX  OF  LABOR  ATTRACTED,  BY  GOVERNMENT  SALE  ALREADY   BEGUN  While little1 use was made of this  particular argument during the recent  campaign over the liquor question, it  was taken for granted by Prohibitionists and  Moderationists alike that a  majority for the principle of Government control and sale would increase  Eritish Columbia's floating population  to a very considerable extent.',Nevertheless,  it was  not expected  that  a  condition' of this, kind would become  decidedly obvious in less than three  weeks after submission of the referendum to the people.   Official notification .however  has. been  received   in  the city that during the last fbrtnight  no fewer than thirty' members.pf one  of the    largest    international    trade  unions  have   left  their  jobs   in   the  neighboring   states  to   find   positions  in Vancouver, mainly because of the  promise of  "wetter"  conditions   than  those to which, have prevailed south  of  the  international -border  for' the  last couple of year.   These men have  not taken the precaution to apply for  their transfers in writing;  they have  actually arrived on this side."  . This substantial influx of the members" of one craft alone within such a  startling short time-presages a-still  larger invasion   immediately,  if  only  to ,-■ anticipate   compliance,, -with .guch  residential qualification as may be required by. the liquor measure yet  to  be enacted.    But the effect such  an  influx may have upon British Columbia's labor market may make it necessary for the Government of this province to take prompt and drastic steps  to  prevent  conditions,   already  exaggerated by the (annual winter.exodus  from the    prairies,, from    developing  into a situation with which it may be  exceedingly difficult to deal at a later,  date.  Under present conditions and-especi-  ariy during the winter months in Vancouver, there is not sufficient of either  building or industrial activity "actually  tinder way or contemplated either in  the city or on the coast to give employment to all the men who need it.  And it must .not be forgotten that hun-  C. P. R. APPROVES PLANS  FOR  JOHNSON   ST. BRIDGE  VICTORIA, B. C—-City Engineer F.  M. Preston has received advices from  the Canadian Pacific Railway head offices in Montreal, stating that the  plans and specifications for the steel  work on the highway part of the proposed Johnson Street^ Bridge have  been approved.  The only part of the bridge remaining to be approved by the C.P.R.  is the bascule span, but there is no  hurry about securing endorsement of  this, as the building of the sub-structure will require a good many months  and the span will not be, installed  until the foundation is  securely laid.  So far as known, the Dominion  Government has not yet passed the  order-in-council, authorizing construction of the bridge to proceed, but as  all interested parties are agreed, to  the terms of the project, this action  is now but a matter of formality.  (Continued from pag°e 1.)  and private offices are provided for  and space for the accommodation of  lighter hardware is made. The building will have walls and will he roofed  with sheet metal. Largo quantities  of structural steel will he carried at  this location by the A. M. Castle Co.  TENDERS  ASKED ON   NEW  GABRIOLA  ISD.

Another important item in the company's policy of expansion in its  manufacturing interests has - recently  been closed. This comprises the purchase by the company of the extensive  roagncsite deposits at Talton;, _B. C.  on the P. G. E. This wVll" enable the  firm to secure a practically unlimited  s-upply of this necessary mineral for  use in connection with- the manufacture of its wall board, thereby assuring the production of a very superior  orricle in the wall beard line and  allied  products.

This is expected  to be  commenced   early  in  the  New  Year,'and(this addition  to the  plant  will cost between $15,000 and $20,000.  With   the   addition   of   a   calcining  [plant and'a wall-board factory, com bin-  d with en ample supply of raw materials, also -owned- and controlled by the  company, the present business promises to expand rapidly and become a  very important factor in the building  supply'trade in Western Canada.  5%.  ■PEARCE,  GENERAL  CONTRACTORS |  ''   We Specialize In   Z,Z |  ■ H00SES&" BUNGirlLdWS 1  GET OUR FIGURE I  N BEFORE YOU BUILD [L  Sey. 165          626 Hastings StW.J|  "  TENDEBS   rOB  PIPE  r The underpinned will receive Tenders  up to Tuesday fnoon) November the  23rd for the supplv of 2,6.-,0 teet of  16-inch  steel rivetted pipe.
