GET RID OF PREJUDICES SAYS ALDER Part of Work of Commissioner Will ' lie Tells Rotary Cldb "Business whleh the city should nave is going away from here and the local men need that business. There is a feeling prevalent that Prince Rupert is the highest price city in the country. I do not think it Is true for I have looked over tht prices of groceries and clothing and they seem to be on a par with prices at Victoria. Yet the fact is that it Is in the minds of the people that it Is cheaper to buy in Vancouver or Winnipeg and this feeling u hard to overcome.' These were approximately the words of W. J. Alder in addreesinc the Rotary Club yester day. Mr. Alder said he had some schemes in mind through which he hoped to reach some of that nets. The elevator situation- 14m misshmer-sahi.w-as'faieat ttstofta-nate but he was hopeful of betterment there. The matter is being seriously considered. Mr. Alder said he was glad to see some business starting up In the district. Members of the government1 had expressed the opinion that the city was not getting its due from the Canadian National Railways tn the matter of direct boat services. Efforts should be expended to make Prince Rupert the pivotal point of all Northern British Columbia At present the city had not a good reputation at Victoria and Vancouver. He told of being at a meeting ot businessmen at Vancouver and be ing toM of a Prince Rupert taxi driver who. when asked to show him the sights of the city took him to the cotd storage plant and the "red Mght" district and said these were the chief points of interest. lie wouM like to see better ideas of the place go out. Tttere was a huge and rich district around and It was very desirable to inculcate a belief in this part of the country and its future Burmese men must be on their toes to take advantage of their oppor tunities. If they got the people with a eonteiousneaa of the value of the country. It would be the first step toward putting the city on Its feet. In opening his address, Mr. Alder I rviAU.H the fin.n,i.i ronriiti f Utc city. He thought it might be poa- stole to get Uie bond holders to take serial bonds In place of those they new held. At present it would be aU Ue city could do to pay the interest. He said he would do all he could to balance the budget and to advance the interests of Uie city and he asked for the co-operation of all In his efforts. In thanking the speaker, Presi dent Oeorge Woodland expressed the belief that if the Commissioner eouW do anything to help the city he would have behind him every man there.
