For more than 40 years this turned out to k a terrific disappointment. The old GTP had to be taken over by the federal government. It has been a bin den on the people of Canada. About 15 years ago and several times since, it was even proposed that the line from Red Pass (in eastern B.C.) to Prince Rupert should be abandoned. A parliamentary committee looked into this question and fortunately decided against that step. It was admitted that trade in and out of Rupert had failed to develop as expected ; but there was a question of an implied contract between the government and groups of settlers along the line who would have to he bailed out, if the line was abandoned. So a curtailed service was maintained, even though the government or the people of Canada lost heavily every month of the year. And now look what's happened! In a single season the Prince Rupert division of the CNR has been transformed into a money-maker. A pulp deal and the arrival of the aluminum people on the scene have made the difference and what a difference it is! Rail shipments of fresh and frozen fish have always been a mainstay of Rupert and that business continn "5 to grow. Columbia Cellulose Co. needs the railway to haul in its logs from Terrace and haul out the acetate product to Eastern Canadian and U.S. textile manufacturers. A branch line of railway from Terrace to Kiti-mat is certain to be built to a new city of many "Im not interested," he says, and orthodox Tories who mu..i stick with Coalition until the next general election sent up a great siri of relief.
