NEW LIFESAVING
TUG IS PLANNED
CANADA TO PLACE VESSEL
ON THE WEST COAST OF
VANCOUVER ISLAND
VICTORIA. Dec. 27—In an ef
fort to prevent a repetition of the
..relmapu. the Canadian govern- ,
>nt is planning to establish a
chain of life saving stations from
Barkley sound, where theBanfieid
power lifeboat is stationed, to
Quatsina sound and along the
shores of the Queen Charlotte isl
ands.
The advisability of maintaining a;
lifesaving tug similiar in type to
the United States coast guard cut
ter SnohomWj u also being con-!
sldered by the Canadian govern- •
rrent authorities.
Manager R. C. Hill, of the Seattle j
Merchants’ Exchange and the ;
United States coast guard service
in Seattle Monday were asked for
a description of the Snohomish and
the possibility of a Canadian life- j
saving rug establish a systematic
patrol of the west coast of Van
couver Island, whieh is known a»
graveyard of the Pacific.” If
the craft is built she will be sta- ■
ttened a! Banfield creek, but will
: most of her time in natrol
i-e coast.
Seattle shipping men are great
er interested in the plans of their
neighbors on the North to main-'
tain aditional lifesaving stations
and lifesaving tug on the west
coast of Vancouver island. There
is danger of American vessels a?
me” as those of other flags losing
'heir way off Cap? Flatter}' in fog
gy weather or being driven on the ;
Vancouver island shore, and ship- ;
r ng men all along the coast are
taking 2 deeD interest in the plans
of the Canadian authorities.
Since the wreck of the Chilean
ship Carelrnapu, with a loss of
nineteen lives the establishment of
r patrol service on the west coast
' f Va scourer island is being urged.
Shipping men emphasize the need
of a lifesaving craft capable of tak
ing a sailing vessel like the Car-;
e - '.apu in tow and saving her
from destruction on the rocky
shore.

WOMEN TALK OF
STREET UNIFORM
--
The standardizing of street dress
for women and the adoption of one
-v.-Ie that will last for five years
and not look conspieious by reason
o' its fur, were recommendations
of Helen Louise Johnson, chair- ‘
man of the General economics
:ttee of the General Feder
ation of Women’s Club of Pitts
m in an address on “Living on
Me Budget Plan” before the organ
ization in the Fort Pitt Hotel.
“Men can do this. WTiy cannot
women?” she asked. “The stage is
said to be setting the style for
women today. The rapidly chang*
rg styles of their dress has be
come an economic question, and
these changes come so rapidly that
manufacturers cannot afford to
make up great quantities of clothes
nd the worker* are idle for
weeks at a time awaiting the next
change in fashion. Work has ceas
ed to be steady in great clothing
factories.”
