AS WE SEE IT.....
‘DODGING ‘CHILDREN No FUN

The Saturday Evening Post recently had a “Per-
fect Squelch’’ ‘story on children playing’ in “the streets
in Norway. When the annoyed woman, who thought

it ‘unfair’ that children were.not given’ as much right’

to be in’ the streets as motorists, asked.what they did
about it in’ America, an American: Physician—living
in Oslo replied,*“"We are just as unfair to the Motor-
ists—we don’t:let them drive through the playgrounds.

: Reading this brought, te. mind our streets of
Castlegar and the many, many little folk a motorist.
has to “dodge” at 9, 12, l-and 3 o'clock. The: tack
of sidewalks is a handicap for both parties, it is true,

. but, school children should be warmed to ALL walk’
on one side of the road. We have driven downsa -

“Lane” of. children with ‘little people standing so

close_on either side, Iam, Sure, their_coats took-on..

Some of the road dust the car had:been wearing.

over of showing by some:sign that he,is aware a car se
is approaching, a child wanders on—histhoughts on -

anything but the fact that he is on'a busy street. On
-the other hand, we have seen.an appalling number
make a hidious face or give some smart aleck.re-
mark showing’ that they have every right to be there
and. not admitting that quite possible the motorist
hos a right too. .

- These are busy times and the ‘grade school pupils

have a fot of lessons to learn—let not courtesy.’ and
“sharing” be the ‘least of these.

NO TIMES FOR PIPE-DREAMS.

The. success or failure of Trans-Canada Pipelines i
Ltd.'s project ‘to pipe Alberta’ natural gas to Toronto’ ‘

and Montreal depends, as-alliwho are familiar with:
the undertaking know,-upon assurances that the im-

port of Canadian gas to U:S.-industrial’ markets will °

. be permitted. Unless and.unti! the U.S. Federal Pow-
er Commission provides the’ necessary assurance that
‘Canadian gas moving through thepipeline will have
access. to, American . industrial areas -via “Emerson,
Manitoba and via Niagara, there‘can be no. lope that.
the project will even meet its operating’ costs, let:

alone yield a fair and Feasonable return on: invest-

z ments.

that private capital. sought by, the American promoters.
‘of Trasn-Canada- will’ not .be forthcoming. For the’
Federal Government to step into the picture and offer
to provide the necessary additional capital without
the same assurances would. be the height of folly. and
swould ‘inevitably result in a heavy. loss to ‘Canadian’

_, texpayers and’a pi \¢ pipeline subsidy ‘cost £9,

the entire country. Lah

The U.S. Federal Power Commission has’ dnun-
enviable reputation. of being extremely sensative: to
political. pressures. Right now, according to Associa-

_ted Press, it is being urged to restrict any prospective ..:!
imports of ‘Canadian natural gas via: Pacific North-—

west ‘Pipeline Corp:, lest such imports compete with

. Colorado Interstate Gas Co. ‘for customers in:the U.S.
