Promise of Great
Interest in Fishing.

Authorities say that the outlcok in the fishng industry at
this port is unusually good. Many of the well known skippers
and others are preparing to move to this port to live in order
to escape paying the fifteen per cent exchange on the money
they earn here. This means that Prince Rupert will become
the permanent home of more fishermen.

There will be a large increase in the number of fishing
boats operating from this port. A number of boats have been
built locally and also in the south boats are being outfitted for
fishing, making this their headquarters.

On the whole the outiook is good for a busy season. Peo-
ple im the East are making enquiries, the Governmient is pro-
posing to start returned men in the business, and everywhere
the interest in Prince Rupert’s great staple industry is growing.

Hard on Waterfront

Industries.

The assessments have been increased on the waterfront
properties this year. As the rentals on the properties are cal-
culated at six per cent on the assessed values, it seems that the
raise of fifty per cent in the assessment means an increase of
fifty per cent in the amount of rent the lessees will have to pay
in addition to the increase in taxation. This is so large an in-
crease that it will almost put some of the industries out of
busiress.

We want industries in Prince Rupert and the last thing to
be done is to try to handicap them. The waterfront propgrties
are simply water rights. The wharves have to be built by the
lessees and also to be kept up by them. For that reason alone it
looks as if a fifty per cent jump in their rent and taxes is out, of
all proportion to the values, especially at a time when there is
an outcry for lower assessments.

Restrict Export of
B. C. Raw Materials.

Sir Lomer Gouin announced recently that there was a possi-
bility of further restrictions on the export of pulp and pulpwood
from the province of Quebec. He urged 4hat the natural re-
sourcesvof the province SWOWHT De exploited at home. |

A similiar condition exists in British Columbia to that in
Quebec. Efforts are being made to carry away all the raw ma-
terials from the province to supply American factories. The
ores and the pulp, are in great demand in the States, but they
should all be finished in British Columbia. If the present at-
tempts to carry everything away continues, there will be an agi-
tation in this province to have it stopped.

There are all the facilities in this province for paper mills
und for smelters and refineries. There is no desire to handi-
cap existing industries, but British Columbia interests must be

are glad to have Americans here, we like to see the color of their
money, we like them as a people, but they must treat us right’
If they take our ore, they must put it through as many of the
processes as possible in Canada.
