A. Cooper, wireless operator. This deals with radio beacons and no one will dispute the great value of radio sounding stations In connection with direction finding equipment on board ships. Our trouble however, is that practically no ships plying regularly on this coast are so equipped. Even the new magnificent "Prince Henry," the last word in voasels of her class, is without this apparatus. Onlv one of the wheat shins nail. Monday, June 30, 1030 HANSON A GO-GETTER Now that Olof Hanson iB seriously and definitely before the electors, a good many people are asking to hear apain the story of how he got his first order of poles from Chicago. Here it is as published several years ago in McLeaVs Magazine and the story indicates what the Liberal candidate can do when he gets after something. "For years the Hanson timber limits carried wood that was excellent material for poles and piles. The trouble was to find a market. Year after year Hanson tried to break into this business but without any kind of success. Then about ten years ago he heard that the American Red Cedarmen's Association was to meet in Chicago. On the first day of the conference Hanson was on hand bent on telling the story of his lumber to the association. He didn't make much impression so he decided on a dramatic "'Look here,' he told the members of the association.' 'I'll ship you 10 loads of cedar poles at your price and up to your specifications. If they don't make the grade, I'll make j you a present of them and pay the freight bill besides.' . "Stirred by the man's courage and the conviction that! it carried, one of the big lumbermen of the States decided j to go north and investigate. He looked over the timber, put in an order, and ever since Hanson has done a very desir-l able volume, of business -with the cedarmen of the northwestern and middle western states. The Skeena River dis trict now is one of their main sources of supply. "Hanson knew he had the goods and he would not take a 'no.' He got his market." question. On this occasion Mr Brady stated that he had spent much time with department offi cials and other experts, discussing the matter. He brought the mes-. sage that it was impracticable to' use Hecate Strait as an entrance tof Prince Rupert Harbor, as it wasj very unsafe, not much shorter than Dixon Entrance, and finally that vessels entering via Hecate Strait would be compelled to follow a zigzag route. It is. of course, well known that actual conditions are far from those mentioned at that time by Mr. Brady. If necessary aids to na- , vlatloh are installed in Hecate Strait, It will be quite safe. It Is 110 mile; shorter route than is Dixon Entrance; and finally, a straight course can be laid from Cape Men -doclno, on the California Coast;j rt;ht away up Hecate Strait to an intersection with the course In from ' lng here since 1926 was provided I Dteon Entrance to Prince Rupert, j with direction finding apparatus.
