LETTER TO THE
EDITOR

The Editor.
Dear Sir:—

If I may be granted space, I
would like to place before the
people of Castlegar some facts
concerning the gift to them of
the Coronation hall and_ the
valuable property on which it
stands.

it ‘is only a little over two
years ago since the members of
the Castlegar Community Club
were discussing the fate of the
property into. which they had
put so much of their time and
money. There were some who
felt that the members should
continue to hold the property.

lawyers advised “There is no

will be no one who would have

NEW CHEMICAL TO

‘REPLACE GLYCERIN

Pentaerythritol, ‘a comparative
to the in-

dustry, will’ soon “be produced
in sufficient quantities in Can-
ada to suply all of the domestic
ueeds and to make this’ country
exporter of the n.a-

terial,

The chemical, which has be-
come an important replacement
ot glycerin, is used in the manu-
facture “of explosives and as an
important ingredient in the
Manufacture of alkyd resins for
baked finishes on metals. .It is
important in the finishing of
automobiles, refrigerators, stov-
es and other similar consumec
goods. It is aiso used in fin-
isnes on military vehicles, wea-
bors and werships,

At the present time the total
Canadian requirements, amount-
ing to approximately. 3 million
pounds annually, are being im-
Ported from the United States.

With completion of the Can-
adian Chemical Company Limit-
ed plant at Edmonton late this
year, company officials report
there will be sufficient pentaery-
thritol available to supply. ull
of the Canadian needs, with can
important surplus for export.

The Edmonton plant will be
in a strategic location to supply
needs of the mid-western and
far-western sections of the Unit-
ed States, since all pentaerythri-
tol production in that country
has heretofore been concentrat-
ed at locations on the eastern
coast.. World-wide markets: will
be served by’shipment from’ Vaui-
couver.

The availability of pentaery-
thritol in Canada will serve as
a stimulus in expanding the
paint industry in this country,
and will result in a sharp _in-
crease in consumption of the
material here, and decreased im-
port of alkyd resins now obtain-
ed from foreign sources.
‘Construction of the Canadian
Chemical plant on a Site near
Edmonton was Started last June,
and the work, to be completed
late this year, is running on
schedule.
