DAILY EDITION OUTLET IS DISCUSSED Reports From Railway Companies Regarding Peace River Route May Come Soon That definite answers from the two great railway companies regarding the most advantageous routes for the Peace River railway outlet may be expected soon was suggested by Hon. C. A. Dunning, minister of finance, and Hon. T. A. Crerar, minister of railways, In a recent debate In the House of Commons at Ottawa on this matter which was brought up by D. M. Keh'nedy, United Fanner member fbr Peace" :River. Following are ex-Cerptlf'ffom that debate: .aOtllO BnVdi iRlrmaWV,n mill do. Mr, Monday, May 26, 1930 View of the position of railway revenues at the present time, but so far as I have been able to Judge, undoubtedly they are both of opinion that It is only a matter of time until such ah outlet will be com-pleted. Of course the terminus of that outlet wjll depend naturally on the route that is ultimately selected. Mr. Dunning I think we are entitled to receive very shortly a definite answer itqm the railway companies concerned. I am not familiar with the recent developments along that line, but I think sufficient time has elapsed to enable the railway companies to make a definite recommendation or a definite statement of their Intentions within a very short period. This matter having been evolved so far. having reached the stage where the railways of northern Alberta are owned by the; two great railway corpor ations, having reached the stage I PAG2 TWO Monday, The Daily News PRINCE RUPERT - BRITISH COLUMBIA Published Every Afternoon, Except Sunday, by Prince Rupert Daily NeWs, Limited TtiffJ AvYMie SUBSCRIPTION RATES "' ' By mail to all, other parts of British Columbia the.

Expedition Result of Treaty This project Is a direct result of the halibut treaty signed between the two countries at Ottawa last week. The treaty has grown out of the former halibut pact signed on behalf of Canada at Washington in 1923, by Hon. Ernest The old treaty set up a commis sion which was empowered to make an investigation Into the life history of Pacific halibut. This body conducted an exhaustive In vestigation over a period of years and finally reported to the got-ernments of the two countries that benefit by the outlet to the Pacific! where-those two U'fty corpor-halibut fisheries of the Pacific and Coast? :1 "will tell you.
