"T H E C IT Y OF O PPO RTU N ITY"
I HY, you might ask, is Port Coquitlam the
I "City o f Opportunity?” Situated as it is, the
junction o f roads leading to Vancouver, New West­
minster, and the towns o f the Fraser Vally, center
o f rail transportation and the marshalling yard for
the freight trains o f the province and adjacent to
an abundance o f water fo r seagoing ships, it is the
ideal location for industrial development.
With its wide a cre s.o f good flat land, good
roads, and plentiful and pure water supplies from
the Greater Vancouver water system; power un­
limited from the power lines o f the B.C. Electric
Company, and every facility fo r factory invest­
ment with cheap land and available labor an added
incentive for investment, the area js the ideal for
expansion for the bursting industrial sites o f the
larger towns.
For the resident there are some o f the most
beautiful dwelling sites on the lower mainland, the
center o f which is perhaps the quiet beauty o f the
Coquitlam River, the ever popular ground o f fisher­
men and those who love the untouched beauty o f
Canada's finest province. Here is a new realisation
o f the educational needs o f today, fo r a full share
o f a building development program fo r schools
amounting to more than $1,600,000 which will be
operating within the year, is the reward o f a de­
termined people who fought a vigorous battle fo r
an improved standard o f learning fo r their children.
Yes, come to Port Coquitlam, see fo r yourself
the steady progress to an efficient business center
where men o f vision are building a new town from
the aftermath o f depression years, where the
people say this is indeed a “ City o f Opportunity” .
YO UR LOCAL M E R C H A N T
is an old and hackneyed phrase which
T HERE
arises periodically in every community: “ Shop
at home and help your community.”
To many o f us this reads as just* a slogan, but
perhaps a little research into an old old problem
will reveal more- to us than just the plea o f a local
merchant fo r support fo r his business.
The businessman in any town is the greatest
contributor to the amenities o f our local social
services. He pays more in taxes, his is the first
response to a local appeal, through him the greatest
proportion o f funds are raised to provide new
schools, better roads, perhaps a hospital and better
services.
.s .
He is the backbone and mainstay o f your
Board o f Trade, that unsung body that without hope
o f reward, works steadily fo r the better standard
o f liyihg fo r the whole community, that strives
constantly to make this world a better place in
which to live.
He ft the centre o f our business economy. It
is hi§ goodwill which tides ovepr the unfortunate in
times o f stress, a goodwill too often abused by
thoughtless individuals. It is true he takes his
living from the community, but is also true that
H is his initial investment which provides a neces­
sary service in that community, whose cumulative
effect is the steady growth and development which
follows the increase o f businesses, with more resi­
dents and improved standards o f living in wellplanned society.
His success in business is entirely dependent on
the support o f the community. He gives to the
best o f his ability, a square deal fo r his customers,
and often a lot more besides. I f he fails in that
you know only too soon, and he either falls in line
or closes his doors.
With his success he is an asset not to be over­
looked, for whether it be employment fo r a few,
or the assistance o f his energy and experience in
community projects, he becomes a necessary part
o f our lives. A policy o f “ Shop at Home" brings
a lasting security, which being the centre o f com­
munity life, becomes the very foundation of growth
and prosperity fo r the merchant, for the individual,
fo r us all.
Shop at home then, for the greater the volume
o f material wealth which remains at home, the
greater, is our chance o f growing lustily, and the
better able is your merchant to serve in the various
funotfons o f true citisenship.

Federal Government this fall to discuss
taxation agreements it is to be hoped that our
elected representatives will remember that though
the vast sums o f money that are spent by our many
governments may seem to come out o f many diferent pockets, all the pockets are really in one pair
o f pants— the Canadian taxpayer’s,” said Joseph
ListerRutledge, chairman o f the Canadian Unity
Council, Mr. Rutledge was commenting on reports
that a dominion-provincial conference will be con­
vened in the near future to discuss the financing o f
such measures as a public works program, construc­
tion and maintenance o f the Trans-Canada High­
way, national health insurance and other social
security measures.
“ The government o f a village, a country, a
town a city or a province is very greatly in the
wrong i f it presumes it should spend money just be­
cause it can recover all or part o f it as a grant from
some other government,” pointed out Mr. Rutledge.
“ It would certainly tend to produce economy in
government if each level o f government had to
raise all the money it spends. It is-very easy fo r a
public body to overspend if it doesn’t have to do
all o f its own fund-raising— but the ultimate fact
is that all o f the money that is spent by all govern­
ments in Canada must come out o f the Canadian
taxpayers pockets. There may 'be lots o f pockets
but there is only one pair o f pants.

Evidence o f the need fo r more

stress, need not be called upon
to take risks o f which a trained
man would be conscious and so
able to cope best with a difficult
situation.
The fire chief, John Galer, has
plans for a better organized and
better disciplined service, which
will be possible with jnore preBonnel and the new vehicle and
equipment now available. It is felt,
too, that the new equipment will
bring an added interest to those
new members so sorely needed.
The social side is not to be for­
gotten. An annual Fireman’s Ball
is planned and a series o f social
functions will help to make poss­

People have been pretty well educated to the
fact that a man with a quantity o f liquor in his
stomach has no place behind the steering wheel.
They have not yet realized that no man has any
business driving a car unless he keeps his mind on
his jo b every second, abstains from too great
speeds, observes the rules o f the road scrupulously,
and keeps always in the back o f his mind the cons­
ciousness that the slightest lapse on his part may
cause tragedy.

OF MOTOR-VEHICLE DRIVERS
.
beginning of 1939, the Government, in
addition to what wax already being carried out in
•b endeavour to reduce the over rising toll o f
deaths, personal injury, and property damage, re­
sulting from motor-vehicle accidents, instituted an
examination o f all motor-vehicle drivers.
This examination took the place o f the cursory
examination which had been in effect, being formu­
lated nfter a thorough study o f the motor-vehicle
accident problem in connection wiRh the failure of
motdr-vehiele drivers, and consisted o f:
(n ) Ability to understand warning and other
road Mgns.
(b ) Knowledge o f the laws and regulations
covering nil motor.vehicles.
(c ) Knowledge o f the driving o f motorvehicles.
(d ) Reaction time.
(e ) Eyesight.
( f ) Hearing.
,
(g ) Ability to drive a motor-vehicle.
As anticipated, results o f this examination
showed that many drivers, owing to poor vision,
physical defects, knowledge or ability to drive
motor-vehides, constituted a potential accident haz­
ard, and in sack cases, it was necessary 'to restrict
their driving, or to refuse them the privilege of
driving motor*vehicles until they could demonstrate
their fitness and abiUty to operate a motor-vehicle
with safety to themselves sind other users o f the
highway.
Owing to the out-break o f the second World
War, it has not been possible, up to this time, to
give n general re-examination, although information
which we have definitely points out that such a
course is long overdue, particularly in connection
with those persons who just managed to qualify
when given such oxaihl nation many years ago, and
whose condition has no doubt deteriorated to a con­
siderable extent since that tim*.
Under the circumstances, th'e Government has
instituted re-examinations to be carried out as
follows:
(•) Every year— Class “ A” Chauffeurs and
persons over 70 year* o f age.
(b ) Every two years — Class “ B” Chauffeurs
and persons over 65 years and under 70
years o f age.
(c ) Every five years and at such other times
as may be deemed necessary— all holders
of drivers’ licences.
In order to carry out this re-examination expe­
ditiously holders of drivers’ licences will be notified
where and when to report, and If they report at the
time and place designated in such notice, they will
be given immediate attention.
Your full co-operation in this connection Is
earnestly requested.

Highlights of
Housing
Programs
Here are highlights o f Recona.iaction Minister Winters’ hous­
ing statement in the Commons
la st Wednesday.
1. One hundred thousand new
housing units will likely be built
in Canada this year. But this will
barely meet current needs and
will hardly touch the backlog.
2. The National Housing Act
will be amended to provide loans
that will approximately cut in hall
the down payments on reasonably
{priced homes.
.
3. There will be amendmente |
later concerning housing co-oper-!
atives.
4. A dominion-provincial part­
nership is envisaged on a 75-25
percent financial basis to under­
take a potential three-point pro­
gram. This will include land as­
sem bly, construction o f houses
f o r sale, and o f rental units.
4. The provinces would arrange
fo r the land and services and
would get municipal requests fox
aid. Ottawa would plan, design
and construct the projects. There
would be joint management of
each project.
5. Municipalities would receive
In lien o f taxes, an amount equiv­
alent to normal tax revenues.
They also could share the prov­
inces' 25 percent o f the financing.
! -an't be forecast whether
■s~i provinces will accept the part­
nership proposal, but all have die-1
•cussed it in a most friendly man-1
ner.
7. It is hoped that the present
veterans' rental housing program!
can be merged into the plan. Ot­
tawa would be willing to extend
‘veterans’ preference to any proj-[
ect.
8. No one can estimate the
amount o f housing the proposals
will create.

FIRE!
W henever there’s a fire in town people rush to
see it, and the excitement lasts fo r days. In the
crow d watching, we hear murmurs o f “ insured,”
“ loss,” and “ isn’t that too bad.”
How many of
these same people go home to a house that they
have neglected to insure? How many have ever
figured out the value o f their possessions— linens,
silver, clothes, furniture— and insured to cover the
total? W hen you read this, DON’T LOOK PAST
YOUR O W N DOOR. Make sure you are insured
fo r full value. Fire doesn't pick its victims— YOU

NOTICE
In the telephone business, means
must be provided to interconnect
any two customers at a moment’s
notice. And it is this matter o f
interconnection thait sets the tele­
phone business apart. F or exam­
ple, power companies have only to
transmit their power from central
stations TO their customers— they
do not have to provide fo r power
to go from one customer to
another.
Because o f the interconnection
problem, the complexity o f the
telephone system increases faster
than the number o f telephones.
That’s why the operating coat per
telephone tends to go UP instead
o f down as the telephone total
increases.
