(The

takes

the

editorial
which
appeared
on
the

of
the
Omineca
Herald.
January
2.
1951.
The

In

by
Cath

Tommy
Fraer.
The
recent
news
of
the
signing
of
an
agreement
between
the
Provincial
Government
and
the
Aluminum
Company
of
Canada
was
received
by
most
Terrace
and
district
residents
with
great
rejoicing,
by
others
with
a
skeptical
attitude
that
it
would
ever
reach
realization
still
others
felt
a
slight
reluctance,

there
will
be
100,000
tons
of
aluminum
going,
to
the
Siales
at
$330
a
ton,
which
would
be
a
new
exportable
of
$33,000,000,
,and
with
additional
export
to
the
U.S.
by
the
Columbia
Cellulose
Company,
now
almost
ready
for
production
in
this
area,
what
would
this
do
to
the
balance
of
exchange?
It
wouldn't
just
help
you
and
me
but
everyone
in
Canada.
'
Because
of
this
development
our
town
ls
going
to
grow,
and
change,
and
build
beyond
our
fondest
dreams
of
progress.
This
will
be
a
great
satisfaction
to
the
pioneers
who
have
worked
and
planned
and
strlved
toward
this
end
often
with
little
help
or
encouragement
from
our
southern
B.C.
neighbors.
A.s
one
American
newspaper
puts
it:
this
vast
aluminum
project
is
to
be
developed
in
the
"wilds
of
British
Columbia."
This,
then,
is
our
chance
to
show
what
our
so-called
"wilds"
can
produce
and
the
important
part
they
can
play
toward
Dominion
and
international
expansion
and
progress.
This
industry
had
been
attracted
by
the
potential
hydro-elvc-tric
capacity.
In
the
Rupert
area
itself
there
is
a
potential
of
100,-
000
horsepower
and
only
10.4A0
horsepower
is
at
present
'developed.
Water
consumption
in
the
city
is
around
3'2
millon
gallons
per
day
with
a
potential
of
about,
five
times
this
amount
from
the
present
source.
I
Electric
power
is
not
the
only
fuel
available
in
the
area,
however.
There
are
five
oil
stations
in
Prince
Rupert,
with
oil
and
gasoline
storage
and
distribution
facilities
for
the
entire
northern
coast
of
British
Columbia.
There
is
ample
coal
in
the
district
and
several
mines
in
operation.
The
Columbia
Cellulose
draws
on
these
reserves
for
its
power
supply.
