(CP)\u2014Immigration  Minister\nHarris announced today a Government plan to advance\nto prospective immigrants part of the cost of transportation to this country.\nThe plan goes into effect Feb. 1 next.\nMr. Harris said it will be made \"on a recoverable\nbasis\" to the heads of families or single persons who do,\nnot have enough money\nto pay their own way to\nCanada.\nThe assistance will be available\nto selected immigrants from the\nUnited JCingdom and Western Europe. They may make their applications to Canadian Immigration Offices in those areas.\nTerming the step a \"major development\" in Canada's immigration policy, Mr. Harris.said the advances made.will apply to transportation from port of embarkation to destination iri Canada..\nThe immigrants, however, will\nbe required to contribute not less\nthan 30 dollars, or an equivalent\namount in the currencies of their\nown countries.'\n\"Immigrants    accepting    these\nadvances, must agree to work for\na Canadian employer and remain\nIn the same type of employment\nfor a period of one year, or until\nsuch time as they have repaid the\nmoney advanced to them by the\nGovernment,\n\"To   facilitate   repayment,  the\nImmigrants will also be required\nto give their employers the authority  to   deduct   amounts  from\ntheir wages which  will  be  applied against the loan.\nt'The period during which these\ndeductions will be made will depend on the immigrant's. earnings\nin Canada, but will not exceed 24\nmonths.\"\nToday's announcement follows a\nmove earlier this month to facilitate the flow of much-needed immigrants to Canada. '\nThe earlier step was the conclusion of arrangements with the Government-operated Trans-Canada\nAir Lines through which immi\ngrants from Europe could book\nair passage from the U. K. to Canada at a cost to themselves of not\nmore  than $160\u2014equivalent of a\ntourist-class passage by sea.,\nThe regular air fare from Britain\nto'Montreal'is $383.25. Under thai\"\narrangement, the Government will\nreimburse T.C.A. to make up the\ndifference on all bookings.\nToday, Mi'. Harris explained that\nthe latest step\u2014advancing of funds\nfor passage\u2014was being taken \"because of the increasing difficulty\nbeing experienced in obtaining\nworkers who can meet Canadian\nrequirements.\"\n8KILLS NEEDED -  .     .\n\"There are, however, many persons on the continent and in the\nUnited Kingdom whose skills' are\nneeded in Canada now, and will be\nmore urgently needed in the event\nof an extensive manpower shortage in the Spring of 1951.\"\n'Re said the Government did not\nexpect that the new scheme would\nbe of Interest to those with sufficient capital to pay their own transportation since the plan would not\noffer them any advantage.\nIt was designed solely to assist\nthose whose services were needed\nin this country, but who could riot\nafford to pay all of the transporta\ntion costs immediately.\nMr. Harris added that the plan\ndoes not conflict, with the policy\not some Canadian firms of advancing funds to immigrants to help\nthem pay for their passage.

Dec. 29 (AP) \u2014\nThe vitally-important United States\ncoal industry began 1930 in strife\nand ended it in peace. But; new\nlabor controversies may threaten in\ncoming months.\nThe year opened with the 400,000\nmembers of the United Mine Workers on a three-day work week. That\nprocedure \u2014 ordered by U. M, W.\nPresident John L. Lewis\u2014developed\ninto a full scale, cbuptry-wide work\nstoppage among bituminous miners\nduring the first week of February.\nThe jreat coal strike of 1050 \u2014\nwidely described as the country's\nmost expensive\u2014got its start in\nscattered refusals of diggers to\nwork any number of days a week.\nIdleness spread slowly through the\ncoal fields.\nAt the time Lewis was seeking\npay raises for the miners.\nAfter the walkout assumed proportions of 'a regular strike, more\nthan 500,000 men in coal-using industries were laid off. The total of\nidle miners and other workers rose\nto pear the 1,000,000-mark. Coal-\ncarrying railrpads and steel plants\nwere heaviest hit.\nMarch 6, the U.M.W.' chieftain\nf ordered all his men back to work\nafter he won wage Increases and\nother benefits In a new contract.\nThe pact gave miners a new dally\nwage of $14.75\u2014up 70 cents. They\noriginally had  demanded  $16 a\nday.\nThe U.M.W, also won operators'\nagreement to a 30-cent-a-ton royalty\non each ton of coal produced. That\nmoney is paid into the U.M.W. welfare fund. .The new figure represented a 10-cent-a-ton advance.\nThe agreement provides that wage\nprovisions of the new contract may\nbe opened next April,\n.The coal strike hit consumers a\nhefty whack in the pocket book\nbefore the contract was two-weeks\nold: The industry increased prices\nof most grades of coal an average\n25 cents a ton.\nLewis has given no indication of\nhis intentions about seeking another wage increase. But he is expected to reopen the contract next\nSpring. He may ask for voluntary\nwage increases by operators at any\ntime.\nInquiry Into\nLogger's Death\nCRANBROOK, B.C., Dec. 29 \u2014\nThere will be no inquest but a coroner's inquiry has been ordered into the death of Nilo Koski from\nstrangulation. He was found Tuesday-morning dead in the hotel room\nwhere he had been 'spending ths\nweek. He was 49 years old.\nHe had been a logger In this district for about 10 years, during the\npast Summer - at Canal Flats and\nmore recently at a St. Mary's Lake\nlogging camp. He had left the camp\nDecember 18 and is believed to\nhave died the morning his body was\nfound. He was a member of tho\nScandinavian Brotherhood, and was\nborn in Finland.

Some economic\ncontrols had been instituted; some\nshortages were already apparent.\nMore of the same was in sight\nas the United States was committed\nto a semi-mobilized state, with\n\u25a0heavy armament production \u2022 less\ncivilian goods than Americans had\nrecently been used to, higher taxes\nand mounting debt.\nBankgrounding the 1950 economic\npicture were these facts:\nNational Income was running\nat an annaul rate of $230,000,-\n000,000, compared with the previous record of $223,466,000,000 for\n1946. corporate profits after taxes\nwere running around $25,000,000,-\n000, compared with the previous\ntop of $20,911,000,000 In 1948; employment was hovering around\nthe 62,000,000 mark passed In\nAugust for the frlst time In history.\nTho outbreak of the Korean war\nin June gave Wall Street's big\nboard a setback, halting the extension of the 1049 bull market.\nThere was panicky selling and the\nprices tumbled.\nThe market soon shook off its\ncurbs on credit, prices and civilian\nJune losses. Despite government\nuse of some war-needed commodities, the market finished the year\nat just about the highest level since\n1931.\nFinancial quarters saw the boom\nthis way; people were- looking for\na way to protect their money\nagainst inflation and were buying\nstock;. As prides of things advanced,\naccording to theory, prices of common stocks advanced because stocks\nrepresent ownership in things and\nthe facilties to make things.\nThere were some financial writers who said it. was aso an expression of confidence in the\nstrength of the U.S. economy in the\nmidst of troublesome times.\n_    11    H-W itfri W             \u2014\u2122\n\u2014T-\n1 JiT     -J_'tf~-W-~|\nTOP    KITCHOI \" R\nB m_\u00bbl\nj!\nif)\nJ|      UHII6 ROOM\nP*\"|       15'6'_!l-\u00a3y'\nhi_*_\nl-T 1 DOM-)\nwr.ifz\"\"\n{fl\u2014\nCiplw-HDRO-!\nj,\nPORCH      1\/\nIJ-0'.W     1\u2014j\n3 _\u00a31 u    _\n6AI1I   1\ni . -\nnrnjRi\nI'\n\u25a0J\n\"..'?\"    '\nMP ROOM\nIW.15'1'\nBui     M\nfc\nAmateur' gardeners may practice their hobby all Winter, gaining both pleasure and valuable\nexperience,: by forcing flowers into\nbloom for a window garden,\nA great variety of flowers may\nbe forced Into bloom indoors with\nlittle trouble.

British Columbia\nAuthorized as Second Class Mail\nPost  Office  Department,  Ottawa\nMEMBER OF THE CANADIAN PRESS AND\nTHE AUDIT BUREAU OF CIRCULATIONS\nSATURDAY, DECEMBER 30, 1950\nTo Write a New Volume\nWe turn, a final page and close a\nbook tomorrow. It is the volume 1950.\nFor some inexplicable reason man\nseems always ready to see an old year\ngone and to face the chances of a new.\nPerhaps it is that man by nature, gen-\nerally,-and circumstances, must be the\neternal optimist. And some will say\nthat with the dark clouds of a new\nengulfing war surging there seems\nlittle for man to look forward to, except that \"eternal hope . .,,\"\nYet never before has man had so\n- much knowledge, so many tools of\n. medicine, science and mechanics to\nwork toward a better life. And in Canada we are only beginning to realize\nthe possibilities of our God-given re-\n. sources. With these things with us,\nthen, can we not take to ourselves that\nhope and stride into the new half century with confidence that we, at least,\ncan do our part toward a better brotherhood?\nHalf of a Century\nSunday at midnight the world will\nsay goodbye to the first half of the 20th\ncentury and embark upon the second\nhalf.\nThere was a good deal of fuss last\nNew Year's over which half of the century we were in. Many argued that 50\nbeing half of 100, the first half of the\ncentury was over and the second half\nhad begun. But a little thought furnished the proof that the first half\nwould not be over until 1950 bowed out\nand 1951 began. That will be at the beginning of the first second of Monday,\nNew Year's Day.\nAnd the last half of the century? It\nwill end at midnight, Dec. 31, 2000. We\ncan predict right now that there will\nbe the same confusion in the minds of\nmen then over whether the new century starts on Jan. 1, 2000, or on Jan. 1,\n2001. There will be plenty of arguments\nju3t as there were a year ago when 1950\nmade its bow. \t\nVer.\nA New Year's Hymn\n(We are thine.

Anonymous letters go\nIn the waste paper basket\nFeels Bus, Ferry\nNot Providing\nService Required    ,'\nTo the Editor:\nSir\u2014May I be allowed to present the case\nfor North Shore pedestrians re bus services in\nview of pending changes ln services and fares?\nFor some time it has been a source of\nmuch discontent that Interior Stages Ltd. and\nthe Public Works Department acting for the\nNorth Shore ferry do not cooperate to serve\nNorth Shore residents.\nFormerly when the Nelson Street Railway\nwas operating it was a common oacurrence,\ndaylight or dark, fr passengers half way up the,.\nslope from the ferry to see the street car take\noff on its way up town, leaving them to wait\nfor the next car half an hour later. Likewise,\nlt was a frequent practice of the ferry to pick\nup its aprons and scuttle across the lake, leaving passengers half way down the slope to wait\nfor the next ferry. t\nLike a silly, childish feud, it went on and\n\"on in spite of frequent complaints to City\nCouncil and Public Works1, the North Shore\nresidents being caught in the pinch from both\nsides.\nIt was hoped that when the buses were\nintroduced this inconsiderate and unserviceable practice would cease. It has not ceased.\nThe exasperating condition still continues, and\nIt is not at all rare to be left by either bus\nor ferry when a few seconds, waiting on the\npart of either would have saved an unnecessary 20-minute delay for the pedestrian.^\nPicture a Wintry day, 10 or 12 children,\nwet and cold, their arms full of books, waiting\nin a biting wind for a ferry when the one they\nwere entitled to catch had pulled out from the\nNelson shore Just as the -bus opened its doors\nto allow them to alight. Many of these children have a long, cold walk ahead, as well.\n' Picture, a busy woman hurrying from the\nferry to do her shopping in town. Ju'st as she\ngets to the railway track the bus pulls away\nand leaves her.\nPicture any young girl waiting alone in\nthe dark for either transportation.\nAnd picture any passenger's frustration as\nhe cools his heels in an open park shanty or\nsits on a cold stone bench\u2014when a little consideration and cooperation could so easily\ncorrect this annoying state of-affairs.\nThese are not isolated instances. They\nhappen every day.\nThe ferry rests a matter of five or six minutes at the end of every trlpr Is there any sane\nreason, barring emergency, why it must make\na quick getaway from the Nelson side when\nthe bus is Just arriving? And is there any\nreason why an unloaded bus in full view of\nthe ferry should not hurry itself a trifle down\nMorgan and Fifth Streets so as not to miss\nthat ferry? And is there anything to support\nsuch a bus leaving right on the dot without\nascertaining whether a ferry is arriving or not.\nUnder such circumstances North Shore\nresidents will naturally make any other arrangement possible for getting to town and\nhome again. \u2022'        ' -\nRearrangement of the present 20-minute\nbus and ferry services are both feasible and\nnecessary. Were the bus to arrive two minutes\nearlier and the ferry leave'two minutes later\nfrom the Nelson side, a four-minute sliding\nscale for arrival and departure is therefore\npossible without any inconvenience to either,\nThis would allow time for passengers to\ntraverse the distance between without danger\nof heart attack.\nThe City of Nelson benefits greatly from\nthe paychecks of the North Shore residents,\nfor almost all Of the money they earn find's\nits way in some form or another back into\nNelson. It \"should be in Nelson's interests to\nsee that they are not overlooked when any\nnew arrangements regarding bus schedules\nand fares are considered. It is the pedestrians,\nnot the motorists, who pay the bus fares, apd\nthe most interested bus riders are those far\nfrom town.. They also pay taxes to provide a\nferry, and are entitled to more consideration.\nWith Winter still ahead and good resolutions\nin the offing, now is the time to do this.\nIn general, it could be pointed out that the\nbuses are not as pleasant a conveyance as\nwere the street cars, and that at many busy\ntimes such as noon hours and late afternoon\ntheir services are far from adequate, with little\napparent effort to use extra buses to take the\noverflow.

This is the fact that\nmost of the world is in need and\nthat the productive part of it 'must\nbe continually busy if that need is\nto be filled.\nThey have hardly obscured the\nfact that if the need is,not met in\nconsiderable measure, then war or\nwar alarms must continue.\nThese are concerns of business,\nand the background against which\nit, operates. .\nOnce in a while the concerns seem\nless urgent, and people again talk\nin terms of old-lime supply and demand, as though the old-time bases\nwere unchanged. Then the facts of\nthe world situation kick such talk\na6ide, as Korea seems to have done.\nNO RECESSION\nThere now is no talk of recession\nas there was at the beginning of\nthe year; we do not hear of surpluses .but of shortages\nIt would be grim commentary if\nthis meant that the world' can keep\nitself busy only through making\ngoods for destruction.\nIf the great aid given by North\nAmerica to Europe was in the first\ninstance dictated by international\nthreats, in the later result it has\nshown that help to others by those\nwho can afford it, results in benefit\nto all.\nCanada was additionally tor\ntunate in that her own needs as\nwell as the needs of the world\nhad   sent  her   Into  an   unprace\nVan Roi Expects\nTo Produce by\nNext Summer\ndented  development of her  resources which showed little sign\nof running down.\nEven before the Korean fighting\nstarted in June, it was evident that\nthe civilian boom, buttressed by relatively moderate defence spending\nwas far from spent.\nKorea placed upon this virtual\nboom new armament demands, and\nnow virtually all slack is taken up,\nand shortages of materials, labor\nand plant are developing.\nCanada's great industrial expansion now seems all too little; her considerable increase in population all\ntoo small.\nThe great economic worry ls inflation\u2014that prices may keep going\nup and up and wipe out much of\nthe value of people's money.\nPresent policy seems to be to apply controls as gradually as possible\nand give business and industry a\nchance to show to what extent production and price'problems may be\nsolved without them.\nFARM INCOME DROPS\nIn 1950 Canada's gross national\nproduct, her output of goods and\nservices .probably exceeded $17,000,-\n000,000; capital investment, money\nspent on expansion or maintenance\nof industry, roads, homes, ahd so\non, will be close to $4,000,000,000;\nlabor income probably was above\n$8,000,000,000\u2014all records, Farm irt-\ncome, however, was down from its\nprevious high levels.\nIn the meantime development of\niron ore in Labrador and Ontario\nand oil in Western Canada continued; demand for lumber, newsprint\nand base metals increased.\nAll this prosperity did not mean\nthat all people or all business\nwere without problems, In tha\nbusiness field, for Instance, sales\nof softwear, clothing and such,\nfelt the drag of homes, stoves\nrefrigerators and so forth, on tho\ncustomer's money? But In the\nover-all picture, Canada rode a\nhigh plateau.\nAnd so comes 1951, with virtually\nevery one assured of being busy, but\nwith at least l-15th of national income likely to go for defence, with\na consequent increase in taxes, and\na likely cut in production of goods\nfor every day use.\nAll forecasts say that sacrifice!\nwill be required.\nThe Van Roi Consolidated Mines\nLtd., at Silverton is going ahead\nwith work on the property which\ncalls for placing the mine in production by midsummer of 1951.\nDiesel power plants, adequate for\nboth mining purposes and the\" operation of a 100-ton concentrator, have,\nbeen purchased and the balance of\nrequired milling equipment has\nbeen ordered. Mining operations are\nin charge of the Transcontinental\nResources Ltd. which undertook to\nfinance the program.\nA crew has been at work on the\nVan Roi for three months.\nFirst shares of the Van Roi purchased by Transcontinental covered\n500,000 shares to net Van Roi $100,-\n000 or 20 cents a share. Of this\nblock of shares 400,000 have been\ndistributed to the.public at 30 cents\na share.\nSubsequently. Transcontinental\npurchased 300,000 Van Roi shares\nto net the Van Roi treasury $105,0,00\nor 35 cents a share bringing to\n$205,000 the funds available for the\ncurrent program,\nIt is proposed to apply for listing\nof Van Roi shares on Vancouver\nand Toronto stock exchanges.\nRaising on the high-grade ofe\nbody in the Hewitt mine of the company will be under way shortly.\nThe Hewitt ore will be mined and-\nst\u00bbckpiled pending completion of\nthe mill.\n726 Million in Red Army ...\nPush-Button War Seen as Only Road\nOf Attack Against Eastern Hordes\nBy WES GALLAGHER United Slates is losing its race with\nAssociated Press News Analyst | Russia to offset superior manpower\nA push  button mechanica lwar.with superior firepower a man -\nmay be the only answer the West with  present  weapons.

H. Macdonald, Supervisor of Fisheries for\nSaskatchewan, said it ignores entirely the teeming fish population\nof Western Canada's lakes.\n\"Why, they didn't even Include a\nwhitefish,\" said Mr^ Macdonald.\nHe used a fish encyclopedia In\nchecking details of the stamp's fish\nillustrations.\n\"Now, let's see, what's this one\nup in the corner?\" asked the Saskatchewan fish expert. \"Could lt be\na lake trout?\n\"The tall ls long and slim, but\nthis fin on top Is not properly plac-.\ned. Besides, it's on a slant. No. It's\nnot a lake trout.\"\nAfter further study, he. decided\nthat another fish depicted on the\nstamp could not be a goldeye.\n\"I'm afraid,' he said, \"that this\nstamp has failed to recognize Canada's inland.fishing Industry.\"\nAn Ottawa announcement said\nthe stamp is intended to \"emphasize\nCanada's great fisheries wealth.\" It\nshows a \"typical fisherman\" hauling in his net in an open boat.\nA ' former Vancouver resident\nnow living here said the stamp also\ndiscriminates against the Pacific\nCoast.\n\"If my eyes don't deceive me,\" he\nsaid, \"the fish ore all from the\nMaritime Provinces.
