PULLEN - - - Managing Editor. DAILY EDITION Saturday. Dec 22, 1928 DROP IN A DOLLAR There is still time to drop a dollar in the Christmas dinner fund for those not otherwise provided for. It may be left at this office or at Salvation Army headquarters or given to the men with the pots. No individual requests are made, but the generosity of the people to up-port the fund is depended on to finance this project. It has nothing to do with the general work of the Salvation Army and the fund is kept entirely 'eparate. Part of it is used for Christmas hampers. ALL-CANADIAN ROlkE . :' (Edmontoft'BulIetfnf ' For the first four mon$s of the crop vear Canada 171,083,763 bushels Mwheat Of this. 70.706.509 bushels went out through Canadian seaports. Up to November 24th, 2&000,t)0l) bushels had reached Canadian Pacific ports. Seaports in eastern Canada thus shipped about 42,000,000 busltete; against -100,287,164 bushels of the Canadian crop which went to sea by way of ports in the United States. There is nothing new, of course, in this diversion of Canadian grain to United States railways, canals and seaports. It has been going on regularly ever since the export of wheat to Europe became a business of national importance. ! Arsenate committee some years ago found that from fifty per cent to two-thirds of the prairie wheat shipped down the Great Lakes' eventually found its way to ports in the Atlantic states, some of it going as far south as Virginia. The diversion going on this year is therefore neither much greater nor much less than normal. A year or so ago the railway commission put into force a special grain rate on the National Transcontinental' railway. The object was to divert to Quebec and other) Canadian Atlantic ports some of the grain traffic which j flowed to United States Atlantic ports. The figures quoted indicate that ite jla1itoa nl been even measurably successful. With more 'than Halt the wheat which goes eastward finding an outlet through the United States the problem of keeping Canadian wheat in Canadian channels has yet to be solved. The only effective means yet found toward its solution is to ship wheat westward. All wheat which goes west pasties over Canadian routes to Canadian seaports. Canadian railway and harbor em-: ployees, and Canadian capital, thus get the wages and, pronis earnea in me wesvwaru movement oi praine wheat DAILY MAIL SERVICE It seems as if this would be a good time to again make an effort to secure a daily mail for Prince Rupert and the other centres east to Prince George. In the spring there will be a daily train, but the post office department of the government is very slow in moving unless pressure is brought 0 to ... bear.

Some time ago the Prince Rupert Board of Trade had a request for eo-operation in this movement from the interior. The resolution was referred to a committee and did not come up at the next meeting. What happened it? If committees are for the purpose of stifling live subjects the board would be better off without them. Possibly the subject will be before the next ttieeting. RADIO ORGANIZATION While this is Christmas time and people are not thinking of ordinary business, still it is a time when they are using their radio receivers. They are complaining of the local noises that at timesmake reception practically impossible. The local radio organization started out well and it is to be hoped it will continue its efforts until all the dis turbances are either eliminated or sufficiently modified so that radio fans may not have their evenings spoiled.
