Of the 70-odd that speckle this trackless two- fifths of Canada lying north of the provinces, most were built by the United States according to an article by Don Attfield, Canadian Press writer. In fact about half of them — strips built in connection with each of about 40 Distant Barly Warning radar line sites along the Arctic Circle — still are in American hands. Canadian government agencies operate 38 northern airstrips, many of which were taken over after being built by the U.S. dur- ing the Second World War. BARGAIN PRIOES Now the federal transport de- partment and.the RCAF are moving in on the DEW line, ob- taining airstrips, often at frac- tions of their original cost. They will be invaluable to civilian op- erators seeking to tap this last frontier of rich resources. Transport Minister Hees, on a recent inspection visit to this Eskimo community on Victoria Island 200 miles inside the Arc- the tic Cirele, announced that airstrip at the main DEW tion here will be taken over this never be used for |Were Mr. and Mrs. Ernie Tratch aggression. of Kamloops. ate fs ———__—__ The accident happened at Speaking last Thursday to ajof man y ‘ , You have a - roy j iles fr capacity crowd’ of about 250 concentra-| Boothroyd, nine miles from people in the anditorium of Prince George’s Duchess Park Junior High School, the Nobel Peace Prize winner said of Khrushchev: This one man perhaps exer- reater power than any one man has ever exercised be- fore in history, because there has never been a time in his- tory where one man could press a button that might set into play forces that could destroy this planet.” The current American tour will be a success if the Russian leader takes back the correct impressions of the West to his homeland, said Pearson. “If, ‘somehow, he cay be convinced —and it’s going, to be awfully tough and difficult to do this —that our power in this part of the world will never be used for any agressive purposes” and he tries to convey this impres- mn to his people “This visit will be a great success.” “Otherwise,” said Pearson, won't mean very much.” Khrushchev must gain the im- pression that “the fears which, undoubtedly, pervade the Rus- sian people about American in- tentiong have no solid basis in reality,” said the Liberal lead- er. He said that, from personal contact with Khrushchev, he knows the Soviet strongman has “an impressionable mind as well as a tough mind.” “it DETERMINED MAN The national party leader de- scribed Nikita Khrushchev as @ “tough, intelligent, very able man” and as a “man of implac- cable determination but very flexible mind.” He said the Russian man who obviously is one of the powerful men in the world because of his personal quali- is “a ties alone.”” Pearson added that Khrush- chev’s “ability, capacity, drive and determination” has allawed him to “claw his way to power’ in Russia but his personal quali- ties are not all that make him powerful, “He has behind him the great- est, the most powerful, land military machine in the world and 170,000,000 people who have been harnessed to that ma- chine, body and soul.” The machine is not technically military in nature, said Pearson, “These people have learned how to wage war by the most mod- ema methods, up to @ point where they are, perhaps, abead of us in the Western world in one or two respects, as We, RO doubt, felt the other day when they landed their little satellite on the moon on what has ‘been termed the Sea of Serenity. TURBULENT SEA “Perhaps it won't be a sea of Serenity any longe continued Pearson, “when they begin to argue who owns it. It would be one of the tragic ironies, of all lime if, not being able to settle our disputes on earth, we began to argue about who owned the moon.” The multi-million Population supporting Khrush: chev, said the National Liberal leader, is a ‘‘modern, industrial Russian tion of might that perhaps this world has never seen before.” Throughout Pearson’s address there was one thread of thought — Peace before all else. He said peace should be the. prime ob- jective of everyone. The basic problem behind the Boston Bar. It is believed the Kamloops party was returning home from a weekend in Van- couver.

Cambridge is one of four main EW sites in Canada, each con- trolling a number of subsidi The transport depar ment will further add to its net- work of airstrips next year by taking over Cape Dyer, another main DEW site, to fill a gap on the north coast of Baffin Island. The main sites at Cape Parry and Hall Lake may follow. The RCAF already is operat- ing airstrips at four secondary DEW sites and has free use of others. Eventually, the RCAF and the transport department likely will take over additional DEW air- strips as the need increases for civil and military flying facili- ties. AIRSTRIPS ESSENTIAL Mr. Hess teld reporters who accompanied him here that aii strips are essential for the de- velopment of a vast northern area accessible only by air most of the year. Air traffic is mushrooming in the north, he said. Transporta- tion facilities must precede de- velopment and the government is prepared to help provide them wherever there is need. The transport department's Half of airports in far north controlled by U.S. air services across the north, including 15 airfields, for sched- uled aircraft operation. The RCAF operates 12 airfields, in- cluding the four taken over on the DEW line, at scattered points. The transport depart- ment’s meteorological branch operates four fields, including one at Alert on Ellesmere Is- land, Canada’s most northerly land point, which it uses to sup- ply weather stations. Others, at Mayo and Dawson City, are oper- ated by the Yukon territorial council. The north's biggest airport is at Frobisher Bay on Baffin Is- land. It was taken over from the U.S. Air Force for $6,800,000 in 1944. The U.S. still using it as a major base for Strategic Air Command, now is spending $20,- 000,000 to extend the runway for jet use to 9,000 feet from its present 6,000 feet and to erect a big three-storey —_ operations building. Completion of this pro- ject will give Canada a new in- ternational airport capable of handling the biggest commercial airlines flying the short polar route to Europe. 32 attend first P-TA meeting at 150 Mile House First meeting of the 150 Mile House P-TA for the 1959- 1960 season was held in the new school building last Wed- nesday with 32 attending. Along with each membership card, the members received a year book. This contains the mames of the executive, out- lined each meeting and pro- gram for the coming year, gives a bit of the additional activities of the P-TA and the aims of the P-TA Federation. Projects for the coming year were discussed but a decision will not be reached until the next meeting. The meeting recommended that an “official opening” of the new school be held as soon as possible. The ‘opening’ commit- tee is made up of Mrs. C. J. Zirn- helt, (chairman) Mrs. J. McPhail, Mrs. W. Downie and Mrs. M. Mc- Donald. Mrs. L. Gueck, program chair- man, introduced Mrs. Gaustin, principal of the 150 Mile School, who in turn introduced her stafi, Miss Sally Langlands, and Miss Patricia Phelan.
