Hon.
Frank
Oliver,

of

board

commissioners,
is
all
for
immediate
action
in
the
building
of
a
coast
outlet
from

River.
Mr.
Oliver
is
not
insistent
as
to
where
the
outlet
should
reach
the
coast.
He
has
his
own
ideas,
however,
as
to
the
route
that
should
be
taken
from
the
Peace
country
to
connect
with'
the
main
line
of
the
Cana-dian'National
Railway,
in
order
to
give
the
greatest
service
to
the
greatest
part
of
Peace
River.

published
