This situation is commonplace in every -growing community, sympathy usually going out to the minority group opposed but with the majorityfavouring progress. Council of Gibsons has now been placed in the unenviable position of having to make a decision on a similar count,,namely the rezoning --—of-Jedde43tial—property to commercial—in—order- thai a Hoiel-Marina might be constructed. Of the thirty eight objectors present at the public hearing held last week,, a percentage only were directly affected by the proposed hotel, their claim being property value would be considerably . lowered with the erection of licenced premises. Such being the case they naturally had good cause to lodge a complaint. ' - The fact remains, progress is inevitable, and ; as the chairman pointed out to the delegation, Y should the question go to a plebiscite it would no doubt be voted m. ... Another strike against the .opposing group was the fact a number of them lived nowhere Auto ImsniFaiffice MANY auto operators have already received a shock on coming face to face with what- amounts to an exorbitant increase in auto insurance and there ,is little doubt indignation will blossom forth as premiums become due. This is by no means a denounciation of local agents, they merely work on a^commission basis which is extremely small and ce-talnly"h_ve no control over iosXs, set by the companies. For the companies it is claimed they are presently operating at a considerable loss, due to ever increasing claims, which considering the number of morons who treat the highways like -race-tracks, is understandable. Atithe same time, to have an increase Of up to 30% added to a - premium after ten years or more accident free • driving, does little to enhance the reputation of ' the companies. Anqther claim on behalf Of the companies is that insurance rates in B.C. are mdclf lower than " in other provinces. Whether this is an acceptable yardstick by which to justify this present action is a matter Of conjecture although there are uri-* doubtcdly statistics available calculated to do ..just that.

THE NEW'Canadian-U.S. auto parts plan, designed tO stimulate Canadian production of auto parts and eventually lower costs to Canadian, consumers, is raising some unwarranted optimism among potential car-buyers. Essentially, the joint U.S.-Canada agreement providesi.fpjr;, anH elimination of tariffs oh both sides, with an eventual lowering of car prices. But there have been some misleading and erroneous reports about the plan, and about how quickly its results, will be felt. Local car dealers havc found some customers with questions jjn, their minds, and with a definite hesitation about making a car purchase now, with the feeling that "car prices will be down next month." But, as with all international agreements, it takes a long time for the full results to be felt. The actual objective of thc plan is to make more jobs in Canada through higher Canadian car production.' Eventually, lower' car prices in Canada wili result.

In the early days, students gave their labor to help devel-. ~op-__thletic fields. In 19_??V students raised $25,- 543 to build what-ls now known e Women's Gymnasiunu and present it, all paid for, to the university. In 1937, students built entirely in their own the stadium at a cost of $39,304, and gave it to the university. These tremendous achievements from student bodies only a tenth of to day's size, and in dollars worth many times today's dollar. In 1940, students contributed very substantially to the original $78,900 Brock Hall, the student centre. In 1957, students assessed themselves through Alma Mater Society dues to- raise another ��300,000 to expand Brock Hall. In wartime, students who were members of- the Canadian Officers Training Corps con-; tributed their COTC pay to build the $54,000 Armory���aided; only by a $7,500 provincial grant. After the war, students assessed. themselves $367,000 toward the $800,000 War , Memorial Gymnasium.

The military empire she had created was shattered but what ~ was more important the commercial and industrial complex perished too. ��� ; ��� toils O- white slavery. Oh yes, to many who gasped and squirmed as they read about the unspeakable Dr. Fu Manchu, especially the Londoners, this -Vias^verv real. How could youdoupT it. "Wasn't Limehouse with its hordes of inscurtable Orientals" right there under their very noses? How could one tell what went on behind those closed doors along that fearful waterfront? Who could say what happened under the cover of darkness when the ships from the Celestial Kingdom arrived and departed? Wasn't it common knowledge that they brought in opium and carried 'helpless white girls away? Of^course it was. Ask anybody, who lived along that waterfront.' * " Despite the fact that the Britain, the ^"nation of shopkeepers'" but also an industrial giant, in her own plodding, prosaic way, saw her world markets threatened then practically swept away by Germany's aggressive merchandising campaign. No matter where you went, no matter where you looked there was that compelling legend, ''Made In Germany'' stamped on everything from mechanical toys, porcelains and glassware to locomotives. And, it must be said to her credit, the exports were of good quality. However, they chose war to emphasize their success and the results are well known. Even in those gracious days when wars, and rumors of wars flooded Europe, the people thought little about it. They were confronted by a much greater danger, the ever growing, sinister, "Yellow Peril." Laugh if you will today but at that time it was real; in fancy, that is. Who or what started it will never be known but a lot of people thought that the novelist, Sax'Rohmer, with his sinister Dr, , Fu Manchu books ..and stories were responsible, Some of these hair raising stories were set in1 London's notorious Limehouse district, whose narrow, evil streets teemed with shuffling, pig- tailed. Chinese who kept their long, talon-llkc hands concealed in their wide silken sleeves as they moved from one opium don tj> another, where It was whispered, they kept beautiful white girls enslaved by opium where they were tho playthings of the yellow men before being shipped off Into tho horrible '"retail and wholesale outlets in North America began to Jje flooded with shoddy useless goods all marked, "Made In Japan." It was pure junk and not worth shipping anywhere but to the rubbish dump. And as the big Maru ships left here they were laden with the finest raw materials this world has to offer. We were exchanging high quality timber and metals for paper parasols and bamboo place mats. We. know what happened to our metals, etc. We got them back a lot faster than they left here. Today the "Yellow Peril" is on us again and the only difference this time is that the yellow races have teamed up to flood us with merchandise said to be manufactured at trifling costs compared to ours. In some cases it is gdod merchandise, well-made and of high quality but in others it is questionable. The cost to the ultimate consumer here is not Tnuclr~lower than the same NEED A CAR?
