With the amalgamation of South Vancouver and Point Grey Vancouver became the third largest city in Canada and assumed the status of a "big city." Every big city in the United States and Canada has an "airport that justifies the name." EVe in Vancouver have been somewhat backward in the matter of providing facilities for aircraft landing and taking off. The present temporary airport at Lulu Island is of the "pocket handkerchief" type and no facilities are pro- vided for housing the airplanes at present out there. The airplane is here to stay and a huge industry will develop in the aircraft field just the same as in the automobile in- dustry. Vancouver is in a position both geographically and industrially to reap the rewards from this newest of industries. Seattle has the largest airplane manufacturing plant in the United States with a payroll of $10,000 a day. AVe have here in British Columbia most of the raw material that enters into the construction of airplanes. AVhat we want is a first class airport and the rest will follow. A VOTE FOR THE AIRPORT IS A VOTE FOR PRO- GRESS AND DEVELOPMENT. "1e:.OW'. ( S-0 hlOTHEIt'S DAY--SUNDAY, hlAY 12TH.
