OTTAWA,
May

The
national
development
immigration
scheme
proposed
by
General
A.
D.
McRae,
Conservative
of
North
Vancouver,
is
so
vast
and
expensive
that
it
should
be
carefully
analyzed,
declared
the
minister
of
immigration,
Hon.
Robert
Forke,
in
the
Houos
of
Commons
last
night,
when
he
replied
to
the
Vancouver
member's
want
of
confidence
motion,
which
calls
for
immediate
reorganization
of
the
department
of
immigration
and
colonization.
So
far
as
he
himself
is
concerned,
he
had
doubU
as
to
the
practicability
of
Mr.
McRae's
scheme,
said
Mr.
Forkr.
In
calling
for
national
development
of
immigration
and
colonization,
Mr.
McRae
dealt
particularly
with
the
Peace
River
country,
opening
up
.
of
which
should
be
undertaken
as
a
sound
national
development,
under
which
the
government
would
becalled

to
finance
a
sum
of
$300,000,-000

object
