Wisely
and
Expeditiously
PRINCE
GEORGE,
Nov.
.Premier
Mackenzie
King
stopped
off
here
for
four
hours
last
night
en
route
to
Prince
Rupert
and
held
the
first
meeting
of
his
trip
in
British
Columbia.
H.
G.
Perry
was
chairman
and
Mayor
A.
M.
Patterson
extended
a
civic
welcome.
After
outlining
what
had
been
done
by
the
Government
in
the
way
of
tax
reductions,
the
Premier
said
the
present
Government
found
a
demoralized
railway
system
when
it
came
into
power.
It
had
consolidated
the
various
railway
lines
owned
by
the
public
into
one
great
system
under
sir
Henry
Thornton,
which
,
.
was
becoming
a
great
asset
to
the
Dominion.
The
policy
of
the
Government
in
regard
to
the
Peace
River
district
had
been
to
make
it
the
spear-head
of
Canada's
immigration
activities.
It
was
a
fact
that
settlement
of
the
Peace
district
had
been
going
on
with
great
strides.
With
regard
to
the
outlet
to
the
Pacific,
the
Premier
asserted
It
was
necessary
for
the
Government
to
get
the
co-operation
of
the
two
great
railways.
He
assured
his
hearers
that
a
Government
which
had
dealt
with
the
general
railway
situation
In
Can
ada,
had
relieved
the
maritime
railway
problems,
had
completed
tne
Hudson
Bay
Railway
and
nad
arougnt

advantages
of

Crow's

rates
ould

be
depended
upon
to
deal

and

with
