OTTAWA, March* 11 (CP). -
Jean Francois Pouliot (Lib. Tim

which declared there ahould be no

He questioned tha economy ol
sending great quantities of muni

much of the equipment could be
manufactured overseas
He also questioned the efficiency
of the Britiih Government.
"I have often wondered If thou

Churchill, are worthy of the BritUh people," he uld.
"Erneit Bevin (Britiih Labor Mlniiter) li doing • good Job," Interjected John R. MacNIcol (Con.

"What     about     Sir    Stafford

"Sir Stafford Crlppi gave them
hell," Mr. Pouliot uld.
Douglu Rou (Con. Toronto-St.

ashamed to call the bill a "gift." It
wu "only the payment of a debt

Harry Jsckmsn (Con. Toronto-

Had the war taken a different

'The war hu made it neceaury to

Mr. Mitchell uld that tha Federal

ated Boardi, and Lloyd Crbwe, President ot the TraU Bond. A. H.
Allen, Nelson President, was in the
chair.
Mr. Curran urged tbat the record
of smaller group) ot Boards in other
sections ot the province constituted
a itrong argument for "streamlining"
the Eastern British Columbia organization by forming two smallar
groupi which could meet frequently
and follow up proposals and recommendation! more effectively than
one large group meeting once a
year. He declared conditions had
changed vastly compared with the
early dayi whan the Asjoctated
functioned ai "the parliament ot the
Kootenays."
Boards of Trade In this area should
take not* of the changes and "bring
themselves up to data."
MORI IFFICTIVI
Smaller groups would makt for
more meetings, more constructive
thought and more effective tffort,
ht believed.
C. B. Garland, Chairman of Uie
Nelson Board Committee charged
with studying the Trail proposal,
asserted close consideration must be
glvtn to the weight of the East Kootenay and Wttt Kootenay Boards as
a Joint body compared with their
weight as separate groups. It would
not be aufficlent merely to make
tht division—"ginger" must be put
into the work to achieve rttults, hi
dtclartd.
Kaslo bad already indorsed the
Trail propoial, Mr, Curran stated.
Greenwood wu interested but at
tbt moment was aligned with the
Okanagan. Grand Forks and Rossland wtre studying IL
Mr. Crowe- itated the Trail Board
felt mort action could bt obtained
through a smaller, united group.
HELP CARRY LOAD—TERNAN
A good deal more could be done
by tht Aiiociated if the individual
Boardi would do more to carry the
load, luggeited Mr. Ternan, Associated Preiident. He felt East Kootenay Boards should be consulted. If
the proposal to divide the Associated were not accepted, "you ihould
all get behind the Associated and
make a go of it," he urged.
Somt angles of the proposal wtre
"certainly good, but somt wtrt not
io good," J. R. Hunter, Secretary ot
tht Anoclated, felt. A ltt kid been

No Refugfe From Love
CHAPTER  SIXTEEN
NEIL STEERED Tiy Whltworth
and his father Into the library after
dinner that night. "I was going to
ketp this to myself tor a while," he
said abruptly, "but on second
thought this matter is very much
your concern and you've a right to
know about it."
Burton Whitworth raised an inquiring eyebrow. "Shoot."
"Maybe that's the word we'll need,
too." Neil said.
He told them Uie story of Kurt
Wilhelm. When he had finished
Burton Whltworth was pacing the
floor nervously, his hands behind
his back.
Tay looked at Neil queerly. He
started to say something, changed
his mind and lit a cigarette.
The elder Whitworth was silent
for a long minute before he spoke
Then he .plumped a fist into his
other palm.
'There'i only one thing to do at
present. We can't go to the police,
but there'i no reason why we can't
have a private detective sort of
keep an eye until we think of a better way to handle this. What do
you think, Neil?"
"As good an idea as any," Neil
agreed. "We'll have to take It easy
until he tips his hand "
"I don't want to intrude on the
brain trust, but would you be interested In my slant. Dad?"
His father looked up quickly
"Oh—oh, of course."
Tay ground his cigarette Into an
ash tray. "Maybe this ia the time
to insist on Molla's staying here for
a while. She'd be a lot safer, don't
you think?"
-She'd be safer," Nell agreed,
"but I don't think It would be as
smart as the other plan. If she
stayed here lt would take Wilhelm
Just that much longer to give us
an Idei of what he's up to. I don't
think Molla's in any personal danger yet, and until we find out what
he has in store for her, I think we
ought to give him all the rope he
wants."
"Maybe you're right, Neil," Burton Whitworth murmured. "Meanwhile, we'd better tell her we're
on her side and perhaps give her
her choice,"
"I'll tell her." Tay taid quickly.
"I'll take her to lunch tomorrow.
The only thing I won't mention is
the private detective,"
"I was going to, but Just as you
wish," his father told him. "Maybe
it would be more apropos, at that,"
he smiled.
Tay leaned forward over the table
and took Molla's hand.
"Come, now, don't be obstinate.
You know It's the best thing for
you, and certainly the lafeit."
"I cannot argue with you any
longer," Molla iald wearily. "You
wear me down io. I'll tell you what
I'll do—I'll compromise with yol^"
He smiled. "Now we're getting
somewhere." -.
"He—Kurt is out of the city now
I have no doubt that he will de
mand to see me when he returns.
Until then I will remain in New
York. After that I will come out to
your place."
She ran a pensive finger around
the rim of her water glass. "But I
warn you I will not stay one minute
longer than I'have to."
He looked at her quickly. "You
have an idea you're not going to be
as happy there, haven't you? And
I'll bet it's because you think my
mother doesn't like the idea."
She shrugged. "Let's not go Into
thit."
"Okay, but there'i one question I
want to ask you, if you don't mind."
He leaned forward again, a slight
smile on his face.
"Why waa it you didn't come to
me first, instead of to Neil Lund-
uist, when you felt as though you
had to tell your troubles to someone?"
Her eyes opened a little wider
with surprise. She tried to piece
her scrambled thoughts together for
a definite answer, but she couldn't
find one.
"Why—why, I don't know. I gueaj
it was Just because he was the one
I was with at the moment and I
knew he could be tnuted. He —
he's awfully nice."
Tay nodde'd. "Yes—Neil's a swell
gent but I thought—" he smiled
again. "I kind of thought I had
earned some sort of prior rights on
your attentions."
Molla's heart took an extra heavy
Jump a couple of times. There was
no mistaking his feelings. Tay was
Just a little jealous.
A tinge of coolness crept Into
Molla's tone. "You're not really
objecting, are you?"
The carefree grin broke over his
face again. "Nope. Not yet, anyway."
"You'll give me warning when
you do. won't you?" she smiled.
"Not very much," he told her,
(To Be Continued)
tual chemical to the tissues affected.
For Instance, Vitamin B, 11 removea
from tbt diet, causes neuritla, but
the chemical structure of Vitamin B
ii nothing like the chemical structure of a nerve. Therefore it It not
because the nerve lacks in essential
chemical to product growth that
Vitamin B deficiency causes nerve
trouble.
It haa been found that climate and
temperature tfftct tht utt of Vitamin B. In cool climates Vitamin B
remains in the body longer and
keeps heat generation going. In tropical climates lt ll eliminated rapidly
and the fodo remains inert in the
body and it turns Into fat rather
than energy so that ln hot climates
the natives art mort likely to be
sleepy and more likely to be obese.
Incidentally, I am glad to iet that
a good word ii being aald or my bid
friend, meat For yeara every hyglea-
lit condemned meat. Nowadays they
say that meat la the belt aource we
have for Vitamin B and wt all need
aome at least, onct or twice a week.
Vitamin B la not a single substance. Thefe are about eleven subdivisions of Vitamin B, all more or
leaa related, but all performing more
or leaa different functions.
Incidentally, lt la possible to get
too much Vitamin B; at least lt s
possible to get too much thiamin
chloride, which is Vitamin B, io It
won't do simply to ituft yourself

Parents Should
Help the Child
to Make Contacts
By OAf RY C. MYErU, Ph.D.
Tht average youth todsy seems to
(o out to much. Ye' there are a
tew youthi who stick oo cloae o
tht home. Unfortunately, their parent! may not recognize this aa a
problem.
The mother who wrote the flowing letter doea tee a problem ln
her adolcxent daughter who prefers to stay at home near], all tht
time.
MOTHER'S PROBLEM '
"Dear >r. Myers:—Our daughter,
Ruth, 16, ia the eldest of five. She
la an obedient and thoughtful sort
of girl, the type who never fails to
escort her grandmother into the
church safely; the one who takes
the dish towel from me and urges
me to go in and rest. Our Children
are all atay-at-homes. Our problem
Is not how to keep our children
home but how to get them to go
out. , . .
She doesn't like boya either with
the exception of one of her exact
age for whom she entertains a se
cret liking. I should like to set her
mingle wilh more boys and girli.
Shall we simply stay out of tht
picture and allow her social life to
work itself out o. what do you advise?"
THE DOCTOR'S ANSWER
How I replied: Yes; you, her parents, can and should do something,
but not oy talking to her of her
sociallack ..nd the nee of going
out with other youths. You will
have to set the stage so she will
choose a belter way and find satisfaction from doing so. To aet the
stage is e greet art which parents.,
htve to work oi ln their own way.
Here are some of your objectives:
To help her acquire such social
skills and interest! as will make hex
feel at eaat with boya and girls.
It might help her to observe othtr
girls of good habit! and ideals who
have many friends, In order to *o* *
quire the traits in them that win
popularity. Alto it might help her
to realize that she need not bt talking most of tbt lime in order to bt
poular and comfortable. . good listener is a rare and attractive person.

Motoring in Britain
Announcement that Britain proposes to end all unessential motoring
this year possibly comes as a surprise
to some persons, who might have
thought that pleasure driving had
long since ended there. A glimpse at
the gasoline allowance for private cars,
however, will show that the drastic
curtailment of driving privileges that
is in effect is not fat short of the goal
now sought.
The basic gasoline ration allowed
fuel for only 200 miles of driving a
month, or considerably less than half
the allowance proposed for pleasure
motoring in Canada after April 1. And,
too, Britain has fewer cars per capita
than Canada. With Britons going short
for years, and soon to lose even the
little they had, Canadians should be
content with their ration of approximately 5400 miles a year, or less.
Two round trips between Trail and
Nelson would use up the Briton'3
month's allowance and now that is to
go, or to be further curtailed.
Logical to Use
the Japs
(Vancouver Financial News)
Who will build thia road?
The United States will probably put up
much of the money. British Columbia and Alberta already have a large part of the equipment required and Western States of America
have the remainder. There will be no need to
wait on factories to produce caterpillar tractors, power shovels, angle-dozers, graders, etc.
That is because the United States, the greatest
road-building country in the world, has been
in the business on a gigantic scale as an unemployment relief measure and has the equipment available to throw into the Job on short
notice.
What about labor? There Is no great surplus of it in Canada or the United States
at present.
We know of no better place to use Japan*
ese labor shifted from the Coast than on this
Job in the North central wilderness of B. C.
The other provinces of Canada do not
want them — and it irdoubtful if they should
be placed along our main railway and highway
lines in any case,
That seems to point to the necessity of
moving these people to a place in Northern
B. C. where they will be isolated and remote
from strategic works and vital centres or communications.
No one ever said that the Japanese wer?
poor workmen or pioneers. They are wiry, industrious, clearwand amenable to control under
most circumstances. Those amongst them—and
we don't doubt that are a good many—who
are more sympathetic to Canada's cause than
Japan's, would have an opportunity, to serve
this country In a way that must necessarily be
denied them in the armed services.
Thry would be dispersed along the line
of the whole project in company with white
workers and could be accommodated in their
own camps within the general camp groups.
To place the Japanese in solid communities of their own responsible fnr whole sections of the road keeping on schedule might
well lead to trouble.
Properly treated, allowed to keep their
self-respect, encouraged to think they ars
builders, rot outcasts, led by right-minded Canadians and by men of their own race known
to be loyal to Cannda, the Japanese of British
Columbia can make a fine contribution to
Canada in war-time and they should be given
the right opportunity, leadership and Incentives to do  so.
Badly handled, without leadership, they
might be worse than useless on the Job. Regarding themselves as members of "forced
labor" battalions, they might easily become
resentful, sullen and laggard on the work. If
that misfortune were to happen, the Japanese
of British Columbia would represent more
than ever ai> indigestible lump within the social and political life of Canada's Pacific Coast
province.

L. H„ Nelson—Will you pleaie tell me when
the Spring assizes ln Victoria were held?
March , 1942.
it. M. V., Nelson—Are there any factories ln
Canida that buy old silk itocklngiT
We do not know of any factories that buy
old silk stockings, and considering the silk tn
old stockings ls perished lt Is hardly likely that
they could be used for any silk purpoiei.
Braided or hooked rugs are the only articlei
we know of for which old silk stocklngi may
be used to advantage.
G. C, Nelson—I have a white polo velour coat,
100 per cent pure wool. I sent lt to the
cleaners and lt came back a cream color.
Now I want to try to wash lt myself. What
shall I use to bring It white again without injuring the goods or shrinking It?
There are several bleaches on the market
that are used without shrinking or damaging
woollen goods, but it is somewhat difficult to
make a successful job on a coat
We suggest that you take the coat back to
cleaner and try to make an agreement with
him to restore the coat to Its original whiteness as undoubtedly this could be done by a
competent firm.
Reader, Kaslo—Is there a recruiting office at
Penticton?
Yes.
How much does a soldier receive for each
stripe, a lance corporal, corporal and sergeant?
There Is a 20 cent Increase a day for a lance
corporal, 40 cents for a corporal and 90 cents
for a sergeant.
J. N., Shoreacres—Please give address where
to send scrap rubber as I have quite a
large quantity of this scrap?
Any of the Nelson garrages are receiving
donations of old rubber.
L. C. K, Sheep Creek—The canval on the
roof of my car hu very small cracks and
leaks. I have tried dressings for same, but
they didn't help much. Could you suggest some formula that would make the
roof waterproof?
There Isn't much you can do to make a
cracked canvas top waterproof. A new one
ls the only solution.
Etiquette  Hints
If you nre a motorist, try to be courteous
nnd give thn po<>r pedestrian a chance. Don't
t ike r corner at high speed when the pedestrian has th* right of way, and if you see one
wh?l has been caught in the middle of the
street by a changing light, pause and let him
or her complete the crossing.
Encourage the prospector, Encourage the
targe and small operators who have a promising property and thereby end all this nonsense of rationing this, that and the other metal
fequlred for the prosecution of the war. Canada has immense mineral potentialities. Get
the ore nnd give mining a chance to do its part
in winning the slruggle against the Huns, Hal-
tons and Japs.—Western Canada Mining News.
Concrete Barges
Release Builders
for Ocean Ships
LONDON—BHtaln'i shipbuilders are winning the race with the U-boats.
Large steamers and motorshipi of 10,000
tons are now being completed, from the laying
of the keel to the final coat of paint, ln just
under six months. Indeed, by making parts of
the hull and so on in distant workshops Inland
and assembling them at the shipyard, the six
months have been reduced to five and a half.
Never before has Great Britain turned out
ships at such a speed; and it is speed that lias
decided the peace-time controversy about
whether the hulls of big merchant ships should
be rivetted or welded.
Welding is not only quicker but It saves
steel, so welding has won. More steel is being
saved by the use of concrete for small craft
Hundreds of ferro-concrcte barges have been
built, releasing hundreds of skilled shipbuilders from the barge building yards to work on
ocean-going   tonnage.
There they are concentrating upon the
well-tried standard "economy" types of vessels which many famous British shipbuilders
had already evolved.
The shipyards were prepared when war
came for an expanding prodution. The Admiralty passed the word to them for so many
tankers, refrigerated cargo liners, coasters,
deep-sea tramps; and standardization has triumphed.

Appeals for District
Wide Vaccination of
East Kootenay Horses
To tht Editor:
Sir—The following lines trt Uken from a
personal letter bom Dr. Gunn, "to horsemen
of B. C." and from an Item ln the farm press
all on tha subject of encephalomyelitis and
ahould be given serious attention by Eait
Kootenay hone owneri.
Dr. Gunn says "When you consider that
the three Prairie Provlncei had 2000 cases In
encephalomyelitis and Infantile paralysis with
some 80 deaths you can appreciate their Importance. Saskatchewan had 449 of encephalo in
humans with 28 deathi, 32 cases of Infantile
and no deaths, Manitoba 446 cases of encephalo
with 44 deaths, 833 oases of .Infantile with 3
deaths."
"From thla you may realize the danger ot
letting encephalo get eitabllihed in your district."
"B. C. hai been very fortunate io far but
there li the odd reiervolr ln Kootenay where
thli disease could itart up and leave the diitrict in the poiltion of being ahut off."
"Alberta lost 1000 horsei last yeir, miny
otheri will be of little future value from thli
menace."
"Surely thii Is of importance enough for
the people of East Kootenay to go to work on
this program."
"The Department of Health here at Vic-
toria li going to cooperate with the Department of Agriculture thli year ln trying to put
over a program of complete vaccination and
we need the help and immediate action of
the 'people of your diitrlct."
"With our records io far showing one human case ln B. C. we feel proud of our record
and want to continue to protect our people
■gainst a disease which now seems to be more
dangeroui to humans than infantile paralysis.
With the many cases of encephalo on the Prairies that did recover some have since died and
many will never again regain fair health."
Horse owners tn Alberta laat year apparently did not carry on aa Intensive a vaccination campaign as before and thus suffered this
loss ot 1000 animals, todiy Health and Agriculture Departments of the Prairie provinces
are undertaking a Joint intensive program of
vaccination.
"Their position today," Dr. Gunn uys,
"may be ours tomorrow If we stray with the
idea that 'It can't happen here'. Please advise
us If your people want vaccine or not."
This means every horse owner in East
Kootenay,
A. B. SMITH.
Secretary of the Central Farmeri' Institute of East Kooteniy.

Silverwood Figures
From Head of Church
Sir—I shall be grateful If you will allow
me a little space to remove a possible mlsun-
erstanding regarding "Religion ln Russia-
mentioned ln my talk to the Rotary Club on
Monday of this week.
It Is true that I mentioned Ambassador Lit-
vlnoffi statement regarding religious freedom
ln Russia but the real source of my Informs-
tion — and which I emphasised strongly was
from Dr. Benjamin's commentary on Article
124 of the Soviet Union dealing with religion.
Dr. Benjamin ls the Archimandrite ind
representative of the Russian Orthodox Church
ln America, and his facts concerning the religious situation ln Russia can be taken as a
true picture — whereas the statements of Ambassador Lltvinoff were given out mainly for
political consumption in England ind America.
The figures as reported In your paper ire
not those of Lltvinoff, but of Dr. Benjamin,
the Russian Archimandrite, who ls a far more
reliable authority. I think Jt tl lmportmt that
this distinction be kept In mind.
I may aay ln passing that the Anglican
Bishops of Chelmsford and Bradford hive recently deplored the prejudice and wilful misrepresentation of facts regarding Russia and
its people—but especially the iltuatlon regarding Religion ln Russia.
W. J. SILVERWOOD.

LONDON, March 19 (CP Cable)
—The Earl of Selborne, Minister
of Economic Warfare, in a Preu
conference todiy slid Germany'i
oil position " ls i great detl more
difficult thin It hu ever been,"
largely u a result ot the Ruuian
campaign and the British Blockade.
He qualified this statement, however, by adding that supplies for
the German Army, Air Force and
Navy have not yet been curtailed,
though he predicted they soon will
be unless new sources ara found.
He said civilian luppUei hive been
drastically cut down or replaced by
tynthetlc   manufacture!.
Lord Selborne deoWTed the Germans have been compelled to use
vastly greater quanUtlu of oil ln
Russia than they originally planned
adding "my opinion Is that they
cannot continue using oil at the
preaent rate for many months
longer unless Germany geti further
supplies."
He asserted the German ittuttlon

Board to Allow
Pried Increase In
Farm Machinery
OTTAWA, Merch 1» (CP), - The
Wartime Pricei and Tride Board
announced today lt has permitted
farm machinery companlei In Cenada to make minor adjustments In
their pricei for carttta type* of
michlnery, but hai not allowed adjustment upward to the full extent
Qt tbe lncreusei put Into effect In
the United Statea tor similar machines.
Increases in the United Statea .for
these machines hsve ranged from 1
to 17 per cent, but the maximum
Increase allowed in C»nad| by a recent order of the Board li limited
to 6 per cant.
Moit Canadian companlei had
made price adjustment! before the
bilk period for celling pricei was
iet at Sept. 15 to Oct. 11, 1941, and
no further adjustments can be mtde
by tHfie companlei In reipect of
linei on which iuch adjuitmenti
had been made, laid H. H, Bloom,
Adminiitritor ot Farm Machinery.
However, a number of companlei
had not been able to make their adjuitmenti before the celling period
was. fixed. Theie were moitly lm.
porting companlei, held up in their
adjuitmenti becime Washington
had not yet dealt with their application! for adjustment ln their U.8
prices, upon which their Canadian
prices were necessarily based. The
board's order hil now mide allowance for theie companlei, but in no
case ls their acquitment upward
permitted to exceed 5 per cent.
