The International Celebration
The results so far attending
the efforts of the Alaska-Brit
ish Columbian Celebration
committee augurs well for the
success of the big internation
al celebration to be held in
Hvder and Stewart, B. C., July
18, 19, and 20. Virtually every
effort made so far by the com
mittee to induce outside inter
est in the event has met with
most encouraging results. T he
U. S. government has agreed
to send a warship, the running
of a steamship excursion from
Vancouver, Prince Rupert and
Ketchikan has been practietl
ly agreed to by one of the big
steamship lines, and the out
look is very bright for the ap
pearance here of large dele
gations of visitors from those
and other points.
This means not only an in
flux of money for the commun
ity but also an immense
amount of valuable advertis
ing for the district and its re
sources. With the success of
the celebration definitely as
sured and such benefits in
view it behooves every indi
vidual in the entire community
to get squarely behind the
project and give it and the:
committee in charge their un
stinted support.

“In Their Own Interests’'
Mining and Industrial Record
Silver has been unduly de
pressed by debasement of the
world's coinage and by de
monetization. These have re
leased large quantities which
demand has not so far been
able to absorb. Consumption of
silver is now equal to or great
er than the production of new
silver. Revival of prosperity
in the Orient will help, but re
covery must be slow unless by
international agreement these S
stocks are controlled. As the
effect on the silver exchanges j
is »o adverse to the trade of
the Western nations with the'
Client, it appears that, in then
own interests, the relatively
insignificant effort to control
these stocks must be made by
nations using the gold stand-!
aid. With the probability of i
production of new silver being
reduced in 1931 and succeed-1
ing years, this appears to be j
the exceptional case where
temporary control of a com- [
modify would be beneficial. —

HOW MUCH WORK?
(Wallace Press-Times)
Most of the economic argu-!
ments seem to be based on the '
old fallacy that there is only j;
a certain amount of work to'
be done and that work must!1
be divided up in small portions
to make it go around, just a
small steak is carved into small
bits to serve a large family.
The situation recently has
encouraged this view. It has
been natural and right, in ou-'
predicament, to pass the work
aiound by employing many
woikers for a short day or
week rather than a few for a
full day or week. The error
consists in regarding this situ- !
ation as normal and inevitable.
The truth is, as any one rea
lizes when he calmly thinks
the matter over, that work (
makes work. When the eco
nomic system is working J
rmoothly, the more we pro
duce the more we consume, the
more we work, the more work
we provide for others. Work- |
ers play into each others’ (
hands, multiplying employ- i j
ment. And no definite iimit |
an be assigned to the total
lumber of hours’ work that
night be done in this country,
>r the quantity of goods pro
luced, in the course of a year
is long as equilibrium is main
ained.
Business is like a motor car.
\ good motor produces more
horsepower at a high speed.
\ good car runs better at a
ligh speed. Only, the faster
t is going, the more careful
ihe driver must be in his steer
ing.
The trouble has been that
nir economic machine had no
Iriver.
What we need is not les?
ivork but better control.
I roperly controlled, a nor
mal day’s work by every one
should make us all more com
fortable and secure than evei
before.

Our admiration for John D.
Rockefeller is enhanced by
the fact that he waited until
he was 90 years old before
writing his first poem.
A writer hopes for the time
when standards will be based
on something besides money.
Ours have been based on some
thing else for quite a while.

Judge Court: “When you

Prospectus: “We have an in

Pompous: “Well that’s not
so bad. With my daughter’s al
ovvance of $10,000 annually,
rou ought to be able to get
ilong.”
Prospectus: “Yes, sir, I—I—
ncluded that.”
