That was good talk bv Mayor
Wright in Fridays paper. What he
SAYS about a gas plant took we'll with
some ladies who got The Herald ana
News reporter some time ago to adj
vocate such an enterprise. Mayor
Wright says it would be most de-
sirable addition and could be put in
without any cost to the city. We like
the plain and easy and simple Ian
guage Mayor Wright uses. Now tnat
he advocates the gas plant let's have
it. All that is needed, as he says, is
to have the support and encourage
ment of the citizens. Surely this will
be forthcoming.

CANADA WOULD
 c0NScRlPT All.
 ALIEN iAB0RERS

WINNIPEG, Canada, Nov. 1O.-At a recent club meeting of the Kiwanis Club here recently .onscription of al fen labor at a fair wage was discussed by K Magee, as a solution of the labor problem.
 The speaker stated that these ali ems had been brought to Canada und- CT diffeaent conditions than existed today They had been treated well add had prospered. Now that their labor was urgently needed to perform many tasks formerly done by our boys now fighting at the front for $110 per day, these same aliens were demand ing anything up to S15 per day.
 In the speakers opinion it was time the Dominion government took action to conscript this labor, for which they should pay them fair wage only. MT. Magee then proceeded to contrast the great difference between the alien la bor treatment meted out in the cen tral empires and in Great Britain.

 He said that the great distance and the bad condition of the Trans Siber an Railroad stood in the way of send ng troops to Russia, for once there -hey could not be supplied.
