PRINCE RUPERT, Aug. 20-On ac- count of water shortage the pulp plant of the Whalen Pulp Company at Swanson Bay closed down com pletely last week and the plants of the Pacific Mills at Ocean Falls were to close completely if the water situ- ation did not show immediate i'm. provement. according to word brought on the steamer Gardena.
 Both these plants had been operat. ed at part capacity for a month owing to lack of water, and the stor- age supply of the Whalen Company's plant becomes exhausted at that and it announced that it would remain closed at least a month. Last week the Ocean Falls plant resumed at full capacity with the purpose of closing down completely as soon as the stor- age supply became exhausted. ~

INDUSTRIAL BOARD OPPOSED TO
 BONUS AS AN "UNFAIR BURDEN"

NEW YORK. Aug. 20-Opposition to the proposed bonus for World War veterans, on the grounds that it is economically unsound and would impose an unfair burden on taxpayers, is expressed in a report just maae. public by the National Indus iai Conference Board.
 The report is the outcome of re- searches conducted in anticipation of reintroduction of the bonus bills in Congress in December.
 "The principle of granting special compensation to special groups for losses or sacrifices incurred in com mon emergency" says the report lis unwise and anti-social, and fraught with dangerous possibilities"
 The findings were reached after consideration of data obtained from the American Legion, the United States Treasury, and other authorita- tive sources. f
 "The proposal the report con- tinues. "cannot be justified on grounds of equity and fairness to the veter- ans or to the general population, while it would lay upon the coun- try financial burden which would adversely affect the interests of the nation as well as of the veterans, and might tend to hamper the nations necessary efforts In behalf of the in capacitated and aged veterans of the future"
 The report estimates the probable cost of the bonus at s4,000, 900, 900, and adds that the proposal wholly ignores" the $350,000,000 already re- ceived by some veterans in State bonuses.
 Direct comparison between sery- ice men and civilians is false," it asserts, "because the factors on which such a comparison must be made can not be evaluated in economic terms. They were an inevitable result Of war and were the result of the chance of selection for service. Those at home were equally subject to this chance by virtue of the selective draft"
 Reviewing the argument that the bonus is an economic need, the in- vestigators hold that on these grounds other classes whose earnings did not equal wartime living costs would be equally justified in asking adjusted compensation.
