Nevertheless,
Prince
Rupert,
to
whjch
the
United
States
turned
in
the
emergency
of
war
and
was
quickly
nlade
the
"Port
for
Alaska,"
anticipates
that,
in
due
course,
its
naturally
strategic,
position
will,
make
it
the
permanent
peacetime,
port
for
the
territory
which
now
aspires
to
statehood.
Prince
Rupert
which
between
Pearl
Harbor
and
Y-J
Day
shipped
a
million-and-ra-half
tons;
of
freight
and
35,000
troops
and
civilian
workers
in
3,000
ships
to
Alaska
war
zones,
watches
with
keen
interest
the
efforts-of
Alaskans
to
free,
themselves
from
the
shackles
of
Seattle
interests
which
have
held
them
in
economic,
subjection
these
many
years
through
confinement
of
the
avenues
of
trade
and
commerce.
Prince
Rupert
realizes
that
this
is
a
problem
that
Alaskans
must
work
out
for
themselves
and
only
wishes
that
international
propriety
would
permit
of
local
and
national
authorities
making
mora
active
gestures
of
cooperation.
'
Certainly,
the
port
of
Prince
Rupert,
almost
in
sight
as
it
is
of;
the
Alaskan
Panhandle
and
500
miles
closer,
to.
the
territory
than
Seattle,
the
nearest
Pacific
Coast
railway
terminal,
equipped
as
it
is
with
every
modern
port
facility,
niuch
of
which
was
installed
by
the
Americans
themselves
during
the
war,
can
lay
fair-
claim
to,
be
the
"Port
for
Alaska.'-'
If;
Prince
Rupert
were
an
American
city
instead
of
a
Canadian
there
would,
.of
course,
be
no
question
about
it.
In
spite
of
the
international
aspect,
however.
m
spite
ot
restrictive
legislation
and
regulations
which
both
Alaska
and
Prince.
Rupert
people
know
are
intended
for
no
other
purpose
than
-to
help
Seattle
maintain
its
control
over
Alaska's
trade,
there
is
every;
reason,
to
expect
that
Nature
itself
will,
in
time,
be
the
turning
factor
in
the
situation
and
that,
just
as
surely
as
water
will
eventually
overflow
and
run
downhill,
so
will
the
logical
trade
route
from
thagj-eater-RQrtipri
of
the
United
States
be
.oyer
the
great
Canadian
transcontinental
to;
the
splendidly
equipped
all-year
port
of
Prince
'Rupert
and
on
to
Alaska.
The
diversion,
is
already
commencing
in
a
small
way.
It
may
be
expected
to
quickly

SUPPORT
BOARD,
OF
VITAL
IOTANCE
to,
Prince
Rupert,
since
it
directly
concerns
what
is
still
this
port's,
basic
industry,
is
the
question
of
maintaining
fish,
prices
which
are
showing
weakness
these
days.
It
is,
therefore,
satisfactory
to,
see
the
government-
prganizing
a
fisheries
support
board,
as
authorized
by
Parliament.
It
is
particularly,
satisfactory
that
men
who,
are.
.
.so
intimately
associated
.with.
thafisheries
of
Prince
Rupert
should
have
been
named
members
of
