A Message to the
Electors of Nelson
The Candidates who hope to serve yOu for the coming
two years with promises of an extensive program of expansion and building, have only two ways of doing this,
take it from one who knows, that is by doubling the
present mill rate, which would work a hardship on the
majority Of our citizens, or borrowing at present high prevailing interest rates. This would finally place your City
in a serious financial position.

of Mike Halishoff and Elmer Oliver (Al) Storbo, killed'when
a three-ton trudk plunged nearly 200 feet off Slocan Valley
highway near Crescent Valley
in November.
i The coroner's jury returned a verdict of accidental death with blame
attached to no pne.
Attractive, auburn-haired Miss
Yvonne McNabb, a Nelson girl, still
in hospital with injuries she received in the night accident, .was carried
into the court' room by R.C.M.P.
officers. Her leg is in a heavy cast.
J. H. Gingras of Meadow Lake,
Sask., only other persn to escape
death" iri the, accident, .walked in
with a'limp, his arm in a cast.
HEROIC EFFORT
Evidence, showed hpw both had
displayed outstanding bravery in
the face of their injuries.
Mis McNabb, found lying on the
railroad tracks * near where the
truck came to jest, and who had
no recollections of the accident, wqs
quoted as saying repeatedly "Is
anyone hurt?" when police arrived.
Gingras wit}) a- broken arm, a
punctured lung, broken ribs and a
foot jnjury, climbed up the steep
embankment to flag a passing
motorist and obtain help. "It seemed like a long time," he said, re-i
ferring to his ascent.
One pf the rescuers said he had
clambered down the bank only with
great difficulty.
FAULTY STEERING
"I figure somethings must haye
gone wrong with the steering mechanism," Gingras. tbld Dr, N. B. Morrison, deputy coroner, and the jury.
"I remetabeiKftl Storbo saying
something about the steering being
wrong before we left Nelsen," Miss
McNabb said.
The-two testified that Al StorbP
had been driver of the death oar,
and that Halishoff had been seated
in the middle of the front seat and
that Miss McNabb had been seated
pn Gingras' knees py the right door.
Miss McNabb said the first she
remembered after the accident was
Gingras approaching her and asking
her if she was alright and if it was
alright for him to go fpr help.
Sgt. W. H. Davidsen, R.C.M.P..
who attended the scene with Dr.
Morlrson and another1 R.C.M.P. of*
ficer, said indications were that the
truck, after rounding a curve and
straightening put, went off the road.
It had been In third gear.
The road was 16 feet; six Inches
wide in the travelled portion at
the point; where the truck left lt.
/Indications were that it had not
been travelling at a great speea, and
that there had not been a great deal
of liquor Involved. Storbo had full
control of the truck, Gingras testified.
Dr. Harold Smythe listed injuries
of Halishoff, who was found the
day after the, accident ih Slocan
River, and of Stbrbp, wha was pinned, beneath the truck. Halishoff,

Without insulation. .*.,;.
(j Heating Is a continuous expense
because heat escapes from walls,

established by scientific tests' tor

heat loss, of course, depends on the

Thli is how it works out fori a
typical modern home of 1278 square
feet area. Without insulation, for
every degree below 69 degrees outside temperature, the heat loss par
day would be: Through walls, 11,600

glass windows, 10,143 b.t.u.; doors,
1680 b.t.u.; air leakage through win*
dows, 1405lb.t,u.; through doors, 2220
b.tu.; a total of 36,555 b.t.u. It
Would require 2877 pounds of coal
to provide this heat for an average
Winter month..
The same house insulated with S
inches of rock wool in walls and 4
Inches ih ceilings would require
much less fuel. Heat less through
walli would be 3087 b.t.u., and
through ceilings ohly 1840 b.t.U,
Other heat lasses remain the same,
and the total is reduced to 20,380
b.t.u. per day per* degree below 0B
degrees. This would reduce coal
consumption to 1605 pounds for an
average Winter month.  .-,■-,
In this example, the fuel1 saving is
44.3 per cent, which is greater than
the first chart shown above. It is
therefore .obvious that a heavier
blanket ef rock wool will provide
greater fuel savings..

Planning the Permanent Home
If you want a house to give lasting satisfaction, * take your time
plahnlng lt. Tho plan mikes a homo
livable.. Exterior design is secondary to the layout.
The Wrong way tp plan a house is
to decide pn a "Style",—Cap* Cod,
Georgian, Dutch Colonial, or what
not—and try to squeeze your plan
into (hat form,
If you want a plan that really
"works", It must lit your family,
your budget md your site, It should
accommodate all available parts
with * minimum of waste.
Tho Important thing is to evolve
a house thlt-suits you, When it ia
finished, if Someone asks you what
"style" it Is, you can say, "It's my
style."
Classical and other types of architecture developed because they
solved living and construction problems pf their day. A true Colonial
house today would not be suitable
for central heating or modern ideas
of spaciousness and window expanse, A true Cape Cod cottage
wastes much space upstairs with its
Steep rppf, "
It is comparatively easy tp select
an exterior design to fit a good
plan, and a house designed that way
will always be easy te look, at as
well as practical.
A centre hall can be the key to a
good plan by making each room accessible and keeping rooms from becoming part hall. But hall space is
expensive to build, and shauld ba
kept to a minimum.
REMEMBER FURNITURI
Big windows ire cheerful ind
spectacular, but .they have to ba
washed, And remember your furniture. Wall space can be as valuable
as window space when: you hive
bookcases, beds, dressers and other
furniture to place.
Keep your fireplace away froni a
stairway and its interfering drifts.
Clive all stairs sturdy handrails; ind
keep them iter enough from doors
to permit the doors to open' freely,
A platform at the top of cellar
stairs, uniform headroom at every
point on a staircase, and no Winding stairs with wedge-shaped triads
are good safety rules. Easy and safe
stairs ire in the nelghberhood Pf 10
inches wide ind 7V4 Inches high.
PLUMBING ECONOMY
Keep your plan as nearly redan
gular as possible. A simple rectangle
gives the most floor space for the
least exterior wall and foundation
work.' jBvery Jog lnvelves extra
Work joining corners and fitting
roof valleys and ridges^,
To economize on plumbing plan
your bathroom next the kitchen nr
directly above it. Pon't have I bathroom opening into two bedrooms. It
should have ehly one door, opening
to a hall, -
A two-storey house Is .usually
Pheaper to build than the same ilze
dwelling with all .the rooms on one/
floor. It takes less foundation,
wastes less space under the rppf,
and heats mere efficiently.
* And dp not change your plan
after work begins, The place, to
make changes Is ln the preliminary
drawings, After i contract is signed
there is nn chance fpr competitive
bids; you pay what the builder asks
for sUch "extras".

An Easy Way
loPalnl
Storm Sash
The first step In painting storm
sash is to clamp, or, nail, two pieces
of 2"x4" wood to one of the joists
In the ceiling et basement or garage. *::** ■'
To these,.abeut waist high, mil
tWP pieces of %" bpard, in the upper
edges of which small notches are
out i     ;**-■*--;;■•'  .'.*'*
* Drive mils into each sldo ot the
sash at approximately the balance
paint.    •* ■ /
Hang sash in the frame by plac
Ing nails In notches and turn to
mest convenient petition for work
Before painting sash, however
scrape put llipse putty and replace,
my glazier1! points that may have
fallen out.
Glazier'! points are those small
triangular blti of metal which Hold
the glass in place; they may be purchased at any hardwire store.
Before replacing loose putty that
his been scraped put, give wpod •
coat of shellac, This will seal Jt so
it will not draw all the oil put of
the putty.. i ' -.
Feed small lumps of putty td the
putty knife from a supply held In
your hand. Do not allow putty to go;
higher than the rabbet behind the
glass or it will show Inside.
Before actually painting the sash,
apply a * coat of paint to any new
putty. When this is hard, thoroughly
clean sash and apply paint of desired color.. Nails in sides of sash
afford a convenient mains of handling it. '■ '

The Holiday Season
Spruce Up Your Home for Festive
Season by Retouching Shabby Spots
Let's put it this way. Christmas Is
coming and you're looking forward
to i jolly thhe, with lot! of fancy
lighting and colorful decorations—
and it strikes you that some spots
ln your home ire, well, not so new-
looking as you would wish. Actually
I bit shabby in places. Yours Is I
nfcehome, butfmaybe a trifle oyir-
due tor a. retouching job at the
beautician's. .
You note the worn edges of your
thresholds. There's I "traffic" trail
across ypur stained and waxed floor.
As the evening shadows lengthen
outside, ypu notice your hall doesn't
brighten up to greet you the wiy
you'd like lt to when you switch
on the light. As tor your kitchen,
where you expect to be unusually
busy soon, lt could do with a "lift".
Yes, there may indeed be need
for a beauty treatment and who,
better than yourself, can diagnose?
You can direct, the application, too,
with the help of the men of the
house. Yeu can do quite I bit of lt
yourself, in fact. A touch cf paint,
properly applied, and the worn
threshold, the chipped indoor win-
dowsill, Can be patched to look
brand new.
Your kitchen is ln tor a dally
treatment ef steam and grease. A
bright new color scheme will do a
great deil here to preserve during
the months to come the Summery
brightness the weather will not always supply. Whatever Scheme you
adopt should be light and airy.
Enamels, easily cleaned and highly
resistant to atain, have their place
here, An eff-white-^lvpry, cream, er
perhaps sunshine yellew—is popular, and a deeper hue for the dado
and a red trim for gaiety is an idea
to consider.
TRY DBBP COLOIJS
Give I thought to some of the attractive niw.deep colors for your
hill. Here again, reds are stimulating, and ln this transient spot of
your home'-you pan afford to ne
rather more daring than, elsewhere.
Deep greens provide a friendly atmosphere. Or perhaps, If you don't
want to go too far at this time, lt
may suffice to paint just one Wall
ln a bright light-reflecting color;
in as little as two pr three hours
you can create a real transformation. The old-time smell ot paint ll

Our Fath,erfs
Business
There may be considerable significance lh-recent press reports to
the -effect that Christmas is being
eliminated in more of the Iron Curtain countries. One may Well wonder if it does not prove that some
ol, them are more aware .than are
some of us concerning the real
meaning of Christinas/ and of its
clear witness to the. great debt
which free peoples-will ever owe
to the Gospel of Christ,      ) ~\
Most of us are more or less aware
of the tendency to mar the Christmas seasphin our 'day with riiany
unworthy deeds and unhappy events
—unwise spending, keeping up with
the Joneses; intemperance in eating
and drinking;' a crass commercialism not 'only oh the part of many
who sell and buy but also on the
part of many who receive and give.
Yet 'we all confess—and reJoice-'T
that: Christmas is better than that.
We know, deep down-in* our hearts,
that Gpd gave us the first Christmas because He" had already regarded every man (no matter what
his ranking among riipn) with en
incalculable worth as an Individual.
And* equally surely wa know that
it is only aa mankind has sided with
God in that high estimate, and become His servants in translating it
into deeds, that freedom: democracy
and. opportunity, have become the
bedrock of our daily life.
Oh one. occasion Jesus asked:
'iWhat woman having ten pieces "of
silver'; if she lose one piece, doth
not light a candle, and. sweep the
house, and seek diligently till "she
find it? And when she hath found
it, she calleth her friends Bnd neighbours together, saying, 'Rejoice with
me; for 1 have found the piece
which I had lost.'"
Likewise . . . one sinner ..." '
How far removed from our Usual
form of reckoning! :How prone we
are to seek for the redistilled ahd
often sterile pronouncements pf the
ten or the ten thousand than to seek
to appreciate or' even to reclaim
the one! How grandiose our schemes
for world befterment, for the curbing of delinquency, for the.raising
of the common lot! Good schemes,
so many of them; yet destined to
failure because they have no living
soul. Dead, because they lack contact -with the only living power
under God/the heart of-the individual. / , ■
FEAR.CHRISTMA8
Totalitarian Governments dare
not allow Christmas to remain, for,
Christmas is the. witness that, Gpd
set Ihe worth of the individual
above a)l other worths. He was
willing to send His Son to save the
world by transforming individuals
one at a time, or even to Save the
individuals without the world if the
world refuses to be saved. No gov*
ernment,' no union, ho religious organization could do that. God must
become man, and move among men,
calling here one and there one, and
saying "Follow me, and I will make
you ..." '   .>
We would have thought it necessary, tp launch Him oh His work
with a manifesto, or the backing of
the press, or the formation of a
party; but the Christmas story
brings us back to a humble little
Jewish .maiden who was ready to
fall in with God's way, and tp the
birth of her Son, who was to grow
Up to be the sample of what God
would have every individual to become; and—What is more—to create
by His death the. means for its at*
taihment.      •
So:
"Let us keep Christmas seftly,
Apart from crowds and noise and
vain display;
Let us hang garlands fresh of prayer
ahd praise, '.'
All love-entwined, in glad array
In the deep chambers of'the heart,
where He,
The Holy Child, alone may see, ahd
gladdened be."      '

City of Nelson should have no
tjdoubts as to its future course after the :
•■■ballots are counted today. There will
; be no doubts }f the electors go to the
! polls with the resolve to give a firm
| majority to the men who will set that
course. ;
Let's make the decision a definite
^one. We in Nelson have shown more
^interest in our civic affairs than at
any time in the past two decades. It
is a fact that since 1936 we have
f achieved no civic-wide "enterprise of a
community participation nature. True,
we have had projects and plebiscites,
but nothing of the nature to reveal a
community pride such as was the
building of the Civic Centre in 1935'.

jLet us elect our inaybr with a definite
majority. Let 'us put me!p in City Hall
who can and will cooperate in leading
«ta oitoens in that spirit that built
Nelson, that built the far-famed Civic
Centre, and that can in the future
.keep our city the Queen City of the

DEMOCRACY
While democracy must have its' organization and controls, its vital breath Is Individual
liberty.—Charies Evans Hughes,

God is everywhere. No crown nor sceptre
nor rulers rampant can quench the Vital heritage of freedom—man's right to ed6pt a religion, to employ a physician, to live or to dip
according to the dictates of His own rational
conscience and enlightened understanding.

Class War
Is Communism
Canadian trade unionists who preach class
warfare may net know it, but they are propagating undiluted Communism in the worst or
Marxian sense of that word. They are, .* doing
injury te Canada, a country as nearly classless
as any in the' world. They are betraying the
trade unien mpvenient. What might interest
them mere, they are taking a pelltlpBlly unprofitable line.   ■ *■,.' ■' .
Mr. Murray .Cotterill, President of the Toronto and Lakeshore Labor Council, is a leading exponent of .the class war. He said recently
that this war, between the employer and employee classes, would go on and that there
Would never be a, truce "until one or the other
is dominant." This recalls a statement made by
A. R. Mosher,*President of the Canadian Congress of. Labar. He said (that labpr must ''put
an end to* the capitalistic monster that snarls
at us across the bargaining table," A..\
The doctrine of a war between classes, in
which the 'icapitalists" are destroyed and the
"proletariat" takes complete charge, Is the
heart of the Marx-Lenin-Stalin program which
created the Soviet Unien. Canadian labpr
spokesmen have lately boasted of their success'
in driving Communist influence out of the
unions. They might as well have spared themselves the trouble, if they intend in their own
speeches to hand out straight Leninism.
Class hatred has no place in Canada. There
was perhaps an excuse fer ii In semi-feudal
: ccuntries where economic society was so er-'
ganired that it gave seme families hereditary
overlordship, and condemned .other families,
ta the third, fourth and later generations, ta
underpaid toll. In Canada, aa ln tha United
States, there are ne dividing lines pf this kind.
Emplpyerp and managers in these ceuntrles
nearly all started at the work bench.-The
Canadian "worker", in the narrow sense of
that word/has an'oppn field for whatever creative er executive talents he may have.
Moreover, the employees of Canadian industry have, ln their unions, a means of bargaining for a fair share of the produpt. They
have beert successful bargainers ln the past.
They can expect tn continue ln this success—
unless they accept the false leadership which
tells them that thfir purpose is not to bargain
Jbut te."dpjnlnate"iand "put an end" te tha
employers. These are not the legitimate aims
o( trade uniefts, Thfcse are revelutlpnary alms
whioh weuld transferm scciety—and net tp
the werker's advantage.
; What happens when "the capltalistie mpn-
star" is destroyed? Do the wprkera In each
industry acquire it and run It fpr their ewn
•benefit? Np. The Government replaces the
employer! and the Workers find that Instead
pf a man across the.table they can bargain
with, they face a commissar or a bureaucratic
underling whu* hands dpwn final'-. declslens.
Where this revolution is complete, as ln Russia, trade unions-vanish and.a now clasrfsys-
tem, with a dictator at the top and workers
at the', bottom, cemes into being. It is a class
system far mere rigid, far mere -oppressive,
" than anything known elsewhere.

Equality by Bylaw
There's danger in the. bylaw aimed at
preventing race discrimination that has been
'submitted by the trades unions to the City
Council. <' ■. : v   ,      ...
Everybody must agree with the spirit' of
this draft bylaw. Everybody agrees to refuse
Service anywhere because of race, creed er
color is a stupid and ill-natured business.
But racial Intolerance is a simple matter
of politeness and intelligence.
Ne law can'give boorish pepple courtesy.
An entire law library could not pump brains
Into the heads Pf the bigotted who look
askance at "foreigners".
., /When this prbppial came befere Council,
Alderman Halford Wilson remarked; "It'a a
sad commentary that we should heed such a
law." - ■■■ A-x-   :': :■■■■::. •::;- ' ;-.
It Is Indeed a sad commentary nn nur
civilization that lgnnrant and prejudiced
people should discriminate against these pf
other colore and faiths.
But will a law forbidding such discrimination actually achieve its purpose?
There's a very real danger that it will
have exactly'the opposite effect.
A man whn Is compelled; te be polite lc
the kind Pf man who will mpve heaven and
earth tp evade the compulsion. He Is the kind
of man who will work off his resentment
against those whom the law is supppsed tp
protect.
The wcrst kind of race discrimination Is
not expressed ih blunt refusals to serve. It is
expressed in sly humiliations and left-handed
discourtesies that cannot be covered in any
law. ■
The purpose of this proposed bylaw Is
excellent.'But it could easily backfire.—Vancouver Dally Sun,

He never left except fer a few
months ln hard Winters, when he
made his way tn the hotel ln the
nearby mining town of Greenwood.
He, did leave again, in October, tn
go to hospital in. Trail.
BUt he returned. At* his request he
was burled in the cemetery on the

British Bookies
By ALVIN STEINKOPF
LONDON, Dec. 14 (AP)-Bbokles
—Illegal characters ln mott of the
United Statea and In Canada—met
Wednesday to-protest that .they/are
misunderetppd.       "
Several Members of Parliament
and soma of the leaders of the horse
racing* and dog racing .world attended the bookmakers1 banquet
and praised tbe bookies as virtuous
indped.
Many bookies are alarmed because Britain is conftiunded at the
moment by horae doping scandals.
It it alleged that several distinguished horses With names that are
household words ran in a peculiar
manner lately.
Spme obviously were slower than
they should have been, and some
ran taster than anyone could believe.
Suspicion was cast on the bookies.
And the secretary of the Bookies'
Association, D. H. Summers,' vigorously defended h'Js colleagues.
"One newspaper thlt morning
provides its ewn simple solution of
jhe (herss doping) problem with a
blaring headline, 'Bah the Bookies',"
said Summers. "I dp not put if beyond the realms of possibility that
tomorrow's headlines will Invite
readers to 'Jail the Jockeys', "Terrorize the Trainers' or 'Hang the'
Horses'." '
"The hanging pf the herses pr the
banning pf bookies is a stupid suggestion," Summers continued.
"After all, who are the losers, indeed the victims, when ia fraudulent
betting coup ia brought off? The
bookmakers, and the bookmakers
alpne.
"Unless racing it kept clean and
thla canker removed from our national spart, we shall all be pUt put
of business. We are desperately
anxious to cooperate with the authorities in helping to cleer up wis
blot pn raping and tp take our part
ln restoring the gopd name of racing

Mother St. Blaise said that without the help of local Chinese women,
the group'would Have died of starvation. One night they escaped to a
Carmelite convent Chungking.
Finally, she was allowed to leave
the' country but it took five months
because of difficulties.
"I guess I waited too long before
returning," she said, "how I can't

The Kinsmen Club with your generous support, have
raised $18,500 for the avowed purpose of providing a
new, modern, permanent type bathhouse in Lakeside
Park... Remember, this is YOUR money. '
In T 947 architect's plans for the complete project were drawn up, unfortunately since that time, building construction costs have increased enormously. These costs will no doubt go higher still.
Voting "YES" or the referendum merely indicates your desire to see a start
made on this project in 1952, before continued rising costs prohibit entirely
tho acquisition of this needed addition to our recreational facilities.
Voting "YES" does not commit-your City Council to spending any Taxpayers' money on the proposed bathhouse. $18,500 of your money ii already
available for this purpose. The Kinsmen feel the best interests of the publie
will be served by making a start on the bathhouse NOW, and adding additional units as further funds ere acquired,
IF you agree with this logical conclusion, we ask you to
vote "YES" for the referendum and help us give you a
new bathhouse for Lakeside Park in 1952.

LONDON, Deo. 14 (OP)—Britain need! £30,000 to lend a team
ef 200 athletes te the 1962 Olympic Games at Helsinki snd iperti-
man are determined the fundi
will bt raised, pne way or another.
Amang suggeitlnns advanced In
what hat become a burning debate
are a special tale of stamps, an appeal'for sixpences, a private underwriting by promoters, one or two
"Olympic days," and a Government
grant.    ' y*
Thli question nf "funds and
games" came to the front when
Elaine Burton, Labor Member of
Parliament fer Coventry South,
wrote a letter tp the Timet suggesting a sale of special stamps at post
offices and where weekly soccer
games are played.
She noted that more than 500,-
000 fani gp to appear matohei every Saturday In the first two div-
Isloni of the English League. If
ipeetatori   st   all   iperta   were
counted,  raising  £30,000 would
present no. particular difficulties,
Miss Burton haa a special Interest
In the Olympics, as she said in her
letter, because her father was a
finalist in the. Olympics In 1808,
Modestly, she did not say that the
herself was world tprlnt champion
in 1020,
Financing cf the British team alia
prpved a lively topic at the, annual
Sportsmen's Association dinner ln

PAVOR8 UNDERWRITING
Francis Gentle, chairman of the
Greyhound. Racing Association and
one of Britain's most influential
sport prompters, said the British
team should be underwritten, aa
a commercial enterprise might do,
He pledged he would put up £1000
if 20 other persons would do the
same.
Gentle entertained .the guests
with a racy account* of the recent
fights between Sugar Ray Robinson and Britain's Randolph Turpin.
Turpin later bashfully thanked
Gentle In a speech acknowledging
his selection by the Association as
the country's No; 1 sportsman Of
the year.
