For about the fifth time this summer we went swinging around the corner at the foot of Oliver and came uncomfortably close to having a crumpling meeting with another car proceding along Railway Avenue. We understand this happens to other motorists with fair regularity — occurrences that Couid be eiiminated by tue in- stallation of stop signs on one street or the other. There is nothing new about this-suggestion. We have heard at least one organization talk about pushing the proper authorities to have a sign installed: we have listened to the Village Commissioners give it the once-over-lightly treatment. and we understand the Public Works Department has enquired to see if the village would have any objection to them placing signs on the offending corner. This problem is certainly well known and everyone is in agreement that ‘something should be done’ — but still no one makes a move. This is our real ‘beef’ as far as the major traffic sign problem in our town is concerned. WE can excuse inaction where a problem has not been brought to the attention of those responsible for its recification, but this one can hardly be missed. From thiy angle it looks as though the question of Signs at Oliver and Railway is going to remain a ques: cars meet with a resounding engygh crash to be heard ai the Police office, the Publi¢tor office and-the Village Hall. Until that time we-wiil just have to continue duck'ng around an lind corner hoping that we get through each time witt- oe cut contributing to the coffers of ihe local garages. Those D.P.’s No one would argue about ihe fact that Canada needs more people, must have them indeed, if the nation’s resources are to be developed and the nation is to fulfill her destiny. Yet one hears murmurings across the land on the part of some Canadians that those D.P.'s are taking jobs that rightrully belong to native-born men and women. Such an attitude merely indicates superficial thinking from a selfish point of view It is true, perhaps, that there are individual, perhaps isol- ated, cases of newcomers from Europe or other parts of this continent obtaining jobs that Canadians might well regard as theirs. But in the nation-wide picture the fact is that the more new-Canadians arrive in our land, the more jobs there will be, for these men and women and their families require food and housing and, in time, all the other things that Canadians today regard as necessities. Thus markets are extended for both farm and manufactured products making for greater work oppor- tunities. , The very term ‘Displaced Person’ has come, unfortunately, to have a tinge of disapprobation. It is me it weredropped ‘in referring to people from other lands ho come to Canada to make their homes. Canada’s population is a mixture of nationalities and from that mixture is arising a nation not quite like any that exists or has ever existed. Canada is young. Confederation is only a short 85 years old; and the Gvolution from colonial status to nationhood gained momentum only since World War I. Newcomers, D.P.’s, are bringing with m to our land new skills, new ideas, a willingness to work hard, an ardent desire to participate in the freedoms and opportunities for de- velopment that are ours. Canadians must welcome them, help them to become assimilated. And Canada must have millions more men and women from crowded Great Britain and European countries, from the United States, and perhaps, from Asia to people sur vast empty spaces and to help us build a great nation in the northern part of this continent. But let’s stop calling these new citizens D.P.’s; let’s call them what they are, new Canadians.—C.W.N.A.
