Haughton, a most ficient head of a government department, complained in a idler recently published, that we were tw severe on the Inspector who recently visited Prince Ilupert. We looked over the hack files and could not see where we had said anything which could be construed as offensive. Mr. Gray was in Prince Hupert only a few days, 'trying to compress into that time duties which should have taken several weeks. His chief anxiety seemed to be to get away. What we contend again is that one of the four inspectors In the province should lie located in northern or central ISritish Columbia and devote his whole energies to helping the radio fan. in those sec-tiens. The very fact that we are working under difficulties sfcdjld entitle us to greater coatjderalinn. i Is because we are re-glecjed, ignored, and looked upon as of no account that people in the north are talk-In;; of taking the extreme step cf string for the formation of "a new province where they maynunajre their owmiffalrs In their own way. - 1 RECEPTIONWAS Itut Not Quite So Good Since Cold Spell Broke Up Here Chaltes-'P'- 0 night Colonel NichoIIs program. h t nor. studio programs.
