GOOD
LUCK
TO
NEW
AIRWAYS
Prince
Rupert
now
has
an
up-to-the-minute
airways
company
with
a
small
plane
with
which
to
commence
operations.
We
wish
them
the
best
of
good
luck
and
hope
the
backers
of
the
concern
all
of
whom
are
local
men,
will
make
plenty
of
money
out
of
their
investment.
-
This
is
the
day
when
air
travel
is
being
popularized.
The
best
of
the
year
is
before
the
new
concern
nnd
there
seems
every
hope
that
it
may
be
able
to
make
dividends
or
increase
its
capital
so
that
the
service
it
rentiers
to
the
community
may
be
extended.
We
hope
within
a
few
years
to
see
a
large
fleet
of
airplanes
plying
out
of
Prince
Rupert,
keeping
in
close
touch
with
the
surrounding
country
and
aiding
in
its
development.
Especially
useful
may
it
become
in
connection
with
mining
development
on
account
of
the
difficult
country
traversed
and
the
shortness
of
the
season
during
which
operations
may
be
carried
on.
PESSIMISTIC
OVER
POOL
The
Financial
News
is
pessimistic
over
the
future
of
the
Wheat
Pool.
It
says:
"The
Wheat
Pool
of
Canada
is
struggling
through
what
nppears
to
be
its
latter
phases.
It
has
been
a
gigantic
experiment,
full
of
great
promise
to
its
supporters,
and
Canada
has
backed
it
sportingly.
It
may
never
"be
said
that
either
the
Canadian
people
as
such,
their
federal
government
or
the
Canadian
banks
have
done
other
than
give
the
"Wheat
Pool
and
its
marketing
principles
every
opportunity
to
succeed."
The
News
then
goes
on
to
give
reasons
why
the
Pool
is
financially
embarrassed.
Last
yedr
it
advanced
69c
on
wheat
and
failed
to
realize
that
amount
when
the
wheat
was
sold.
The
provincial
governments
will
pay
the
bill.
After
this
experience
it
is
expected
that
the
banks
will
not
finance
them
to
any
considerable
extent.
Settlements
for
past
years
have
not
"been
made.
The
final
paragraph
sums
up
the
situation:
"Only
a
miracle
can
pull
the
Central
Selling
Agency
(the
main
wheat
pool)
through
this
coining
fall
and
winter
alive.
What
will
remain
of
the
Wheat
Pool
movement
will
be
only
the
parts
that
reconcile
themselves
to
the
economic
laws
as
they
are
and
function
on
a
practical
basis.
It
is
the
latter
phase
of
a
great
experiment.
The
country
is
payincr
the
price
of
its
experience."
We
hope
the
prophecy
of
the
Financial
News
does
not
come
true
but
that
the
Pool
will
continue
to
function
for
the
belief
it
of
the
wheat
growers.
Prince
Rupert
is
vitally
concerned
over
the
situation,
because
the
local
elevator
is
leased
by
the
Pool
and
should
the
organization
fail
the
question
of
operation
of
the
local
elevator
will
again
have
to
be
dealt
with.
