This\nincrease in the working force has\nUxed to the limit the facilities for\nhome-building within, the environs\nof the City of Trail, which, 'owing\nto topographical conditions,-could\nnot provide adequate building sites\nfor all the employees engaged it\nthe plmt at ihe present time. Then\ntoo, many ot the employees, due\nto the nature of their employment,\nprefer to establish their home some\nmllei out In the country, where\n,they can' devote their ipare time\nto gardening, etc., and bring up\ntheir fimilies free from the worries\nof city traffic and other hazards,\nThui, co-Incident with the expansion of the Trail plant, we find\nthe communities of Rossland, Castlegar, Fruitvale, Annable, Casino,\nand other smaller centres also experiencing a period of growth and\nexpansion.\nR08SLAND BLAZED WAY\n\"One of the first essentials to\nthe continued existence of these\nsmaller communities wu the establishment of \u25a0 method of transporting the employeei living in\nthe md communities to tnd from\ntheir place ot employment at Trail.\nRailroad locations tnd schedules\ndid not provide the answer. Bus\ncompanies tried to supply the service, but could not provide a cheap\nenough rate to make It possible\n. , . obviously a working man can\nonly afford up to a certain percentage of his wages for this kind\nof service ... to that iome other\nway out had to be found. The men\nresiding in RossUnd thought they\nhad tound thi answer when, in\n1982, they organized the Rossland\nCo-Operative Transportation Society, by means of which It wu proposed that the workmen themselves\nown and operate their own system\nfor transporting themaelves to md\nfrom their place of employment\nat Trail.

Other communities soon\nadopted the same scheme, md as\na result Fruitvale, Casino, and Castlegar each' have their own transportation societies, md lince so\ndoing, each community hu grown\nrapidly. There is also one transportation society operating between\nTrail and the Fertilizer PUnt at\nWirfleld.\n\"Each df these societies has been\norganizing with but one object ln\nview, the most economical, means\nof transporting iti memberi to md\nfrom work, tnd tht can are bought\nand used^ solely for thli purpose.\n\"During the period since the first\not these societies came into being\nln 1932, each of them, in accordance with the law, hu, tt the\nproper time, filed with the registrar\nof companies, \u2022 copy of IU tnnual\nfinancial itatement and baUnce\nsheeL\n\"Bated on the returni furnished\nby these balance sheets, some of\nthe societies \u2014 and we presume\nthat the rest will be dealt with in\nthe same way \u2014 htve been forced\nto pay Provincial Income taxei in\nthe same way ts though the societies were ordinary Joint itock\ncompanies organized primarily for\nthe purpose of earning profiU tor\nIU shareholders.\n8URPLU8.

You do not state who is misrepresenting Canadian Youth. It certainly appears that\nyou are not informed about the Canadian Youth Congress\nand its composition. Informed people do not make insinuating charges without proof. For your information and of\nothers who are not aware of the composition of the Cana-\n, dian Youth Movement, the following are facts.\"\nAnd the charming young lady goes on to give the regulation facta about the Canadian Youth Congress' composition and scope, neither of which have been in any way in\nquestion.\n\u25a0 As it happens, however, our critic packs a few misapprehensions into the three or four sentences In which\nshe takes The Daily News to task, and these should be\ncleared up.\nHer suggestion that The Daily News di<J not make it\nclear who in its opinion was \"misrepreseiting Canadian\n' Youth,\" shows how hard lt Is to frame even a simple statement so it will not be misunderstood. The DaUy News,\nthought it had made that point crystal clear. The agency\nIt named\u2014and named repeatedly\u2014was the National Committee of the Canadian Youth organization aforesaid, in\nlta Toronto publicity release reporting its resolutions adopted at an executive meeting in Montreal called for the pur-\npose of laying down a policy respecting the war. This\nexecutive group was named three, times by title, and where\nnot named by title, was indicated, by such words as \"leadership\" or \"leaders'*.\nThe young lady's remark that \"Informed people do not\nmake insinuating charges without proof,\" seems to be an-\noblique reference to The Daily News, intended to convey\n-both that it Is uninformed and also that it insinuated\ncharges without offering proof. As to whether The Daily\nNews is uninformed on the matter, we needn't discuss at\nthe moment; our fair critic, at any rate, has tried to make\n. good our deficit,\nBut on the suggestion of \"insinuation without proof,\"\nwe are entitled to reply.   .\nWhere did the information made use of by The Daily\nNews come from?\nIt came right from \"the horse's mouth,\" or headquarters. It came from the National Executive itself through Its\nPublicity Department, and was sent out to the Press of the\nNation through the mails, for the purpose of being published. The very first words of the editorial made all that\nclear. They were: \"A publicity release received by The\nDaily News from the Canadian Youth Congress, to bear a\nToronto date, reads in part as follows:\" Then followed the\n\"first three paragraphs of the prepared statement, which\nwere all that dealt with war policy.\nNow, does anyone know more about that National\nCommittee than it itself knows? Are the talented young\npersons, one in Trail and one in Nelson, who have written\nletters in defence, going to go over its head? Do they take\nthe position that it has misrepresented its own stand?\nTo sum up: The paragraphs quoted set out, among\nother things, that Canadian young people were anxious \"to\nplay a responsible part in the present situation,\" that the\ncommittee had met, that represenatives of many diverse\nyouth organizations discussed at considerable length the\nopinions of young people across Canada on the war situation, and that on the basis of reports received from local\nyouth councils in -Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Saskatoon, Winnipeg, Toronto and Montreal a national statement was drawn up. Then came the part dealing with the\nattitude toward war, this relating to just two phases: con-'\nscription, which was opposed at present as prejudicial to\nnational unity, and freedom of expression, which it asked\nremain unimpaired.\n. We are fairly entitled, seeing the effort of the National\nCommittee to get this statement in the Press, and that a\nspecial gathering was called to formulate it, to assume that\nit contains the whole present policy of the National Committee toward the war.\nThe doctrine at which The Daily News directed its\ncriticism was contained in the latter part of the third\nparagraph of the publicity matter, reading: \"It (meaning\nthe report or statement) urges the Government to maintain\nfreedom of speech, the press, radio, and assembly, except\nwhere military secrets are concerned. 'In waging a war\nagainst tyranny on behalf of Democracy, we do not want\nto lose our own Democracy,' the statements reads.\"\nIt seemed to The Daily News when it commented on\nthis policy in mid-November, and it seems to it now, that\nthis concern over a possible curtailment of some little privileges at home, which could be seriously felt only by those\nwho wanted to obstruct the Nation's war effort, at a time\nwhen there was a challenge abroad tp human freedom in\nterms that were calling from their homes the men of the\nEmpire, including Canada, was a. pitiful misdirection of\nattention and effort, and it expressed the opinion that the\nthousands of young Canadians who had personally taken\nup the cause, much more closely represented the views of\nYoung Canada than did those who insisted on a wide open\ndoor to all subversive publicity.\nThe Daily News does not believe that the National\nCommittee in question, in its statement of policy, truly\nrepresents the Youth of Canada,\nHow far, if at all, it represents the Canadian Youth\nCongress, let the local councils say.\nThe Daily News is fully confident that when next the\nCONTRACT  - By Shepard Barclay\nLONO BURS onncARD\nPLAYERS who fall to makl\nOverall! at their Brit opportu.\nalty and then back Into the bid-\nding liter, an pretty likely to\nhavt long lulti la their handa\nwithout much honor Itrength.

You\ndo not state who li misrepresenting\nCinidlin Youth. It certainly ip-\npetri that you are not Informed\nIbout the Canadian Youth Congress\nand ita composition. Informed people do not mike Insinuating charges\nwithout proof. For your information\nand of othen who are not aware\not the composition of the Youth\nMovement, the following are facts.\nDelegates to the Youth Congress\nand councils represent the broad-\neat sections of organized youth.\nThese delegatei tre elected trom\npractically every racial, political,\nreligious, cultural, sport and dramatics society. There are delegates\nfrom ill church societies, Including\nthe Jews, Hindus tnd. Buddhists, all\nPolitical groups, Young Liberals,\noung Conservatives, Canadian\nCo-Operative Commonwealth Youth\nMovement, Young Communist!,\nYoung Soclil Crediters, New Democracy Youth Movement, from\nY. M. C. A.'s, Community Centrei,\nProvincial-Recreational Groups, Progressive Arts Clubi ind mmy\nothers. The only youth group that\nIs not represented is the Young\nCatholics.\nCan you now hold to your belief\nthat the Youth Congress does not\nrepresent Canadian youth? Can you\nshow what other broad movement\ndoes?\nThe Youth Congress has been accused of being controlled by the\nConservatives, the Liberals, the\nC. C. T.'ttt, the Communists, and\nother organiutlons.. Let me itate\nemphatically and unequivocally,\ntbat It It the Youth of this country\nthat control the Youth Congress.\nThe aim and object of the Youth\nCongreii is \"to foster \u25a0 greater understanding between all youth\ngroups regardless of race, creed, color or belief and to provide t means\nof active cooperation for youth In\nsociety ind in matten of common\nconcern; to stimulate a greater undentanding of youth, ind gain coop\neration for youth ln society ind in\nmatters of common concern: to stimulate a greater' undentanding ot\nyouth, and gain cooperations for\nyouth projects from ill organizations and authorities that can give\nconstructive assistance.\" Surely that\nIs a great aim of all interested in the\nmaintenance and extension ot democracy. The will of Canadian\nyouth wu declared recenUy at the\nFourth Canadian Youth Congress at\nWinnipeg. Could there be a more informed national body of vital affairs\nIn Canada than the youth between\nthe ages of 18 to 99. Are thve u\nmany of those that could deal In\nan enlightened, tactual and constructive way amongst those past\nyouth age. These are some of the\ntopics and Issues with which members of the Youth Congress are mon\nthan well acquainted. Employment,\nmeans of additional employment,\npublic worki projecti, reforest!-!-\ntion, wages and houn, apprenticeships, housing project!, ind slum\nclearance, industrial commissions,\nimmigration lawi. Agriculture, marketing of wheat, consumer's unions\nand cooperatives, conservation of\nnatural resources, crop Insurance,\ntransportation. Education, scholarships, technical ichooli, Pro-Rec\ncentres, vocational guidance and\nplacement. Canadian unity, B.N.A.\nAct, franchise, citizenship, anti-democratic elements, minority rights,\nProvincial-Federal relations, taxation, toreign policy, conscription.\nTheie are the questions and the\nYouth Congress provides somt of\nthe inswers for it as enlightened\nind Informed youth that are to\nguide Canadian destinies henceforth. The welfare of our country\nis at the deepest consideration for\nthe youth and none can deny It,\nWe wish the support and advice\nof all who are ts appreciative and\ninformed of Canada u we are.\ni I FREDA HORLICK.\nMember of Provinciil Committee\nB.
