VIEWS OF NELSON The le&on from the following editorial in the Nelson Daily News is obvioug to all Prince Rupert people, especially in view of the fact that the News is a strong supporter of the Tolmie Government'- "Economy in provincial government expenditure in British t Columbia during the present year is necessary. 'Frills' and waste have to be cut oujt oru least reduced in order that essential' expenditures on highways, etc., may lie made. i 3 K 'It is time for exceptional actJVltyoh Hie parts of boards of trade in Kootenay to press upon the government the completion of obviously necessary highway projects. If we, in Kootenay, remain silent or lacking in energy in calling to the attention of the government our very real needs, there is grave danger that we might be overlooked in favor of other parts which are more active in making demands. "Everyone will realise that the present state of provincial finances does not justify any unnecessary expenditures or the spending of any money upon anything in the nature of 'frills.' But that must not deter us in Kootenay from pushing justifiable claims to the limit of our ability. We should ask for nothing that is unnecessary but we should press with unremitting vigor for the completion of public works which will produce business for Kootenay and revenue for the province." . ...
