PEACE
RIVER
RAILWAY
.
The
statement
of
the
minister
of
railways
in
the
House
of
Commons
as
published
in
this
paper
yesterday,
is
a
distinct
advance
over
previous
statements
in
that
the
minis-tr
committed
himself
as
favoring
continued
construction
cm
the
route
north
of
the
Peace
River,
which
is
directly
in
the
direction
of
Prince
Rupert
and
seems
to
commit
the
government
to,
the
use
of
the
Peace
Pass
as
against
any
other
of
the
Western
passes
through
the
mountains.
(
The
chief
objection-tli
at
can
be
taken
to
the
resolution
passed
by
the;
House-is
that
it
sets
no
time
for
commencement
of
work
oh
the
extension.
The
minister
of
railways
'amended
the
motion
of
Donald
Kennedy,
member
for
Peace
River,
by
adding
the
words
"when
circumstances
permit"
However,
the
minister
gave
hope
that
the
work
might
be
commenced
this
year.
Evidently
the
forthcoming
election
is
having
some
effect
on
the
government
in
regard
toits
railway
construction
policy
and
we
are
hoping
'that
it
is
something
more
than
an
election
promise.

.GENERAL
IMPROVEMENT
'
In
line
with
the
reports
which
have
been
issued
from
time
to
time,telung
of
the
general
improvement
in
financial
conditions
throughout
the
country
is
the
recent
trade
letter
of
Dun's
Bulletin,
It
tells
of
greater
activity
in
British
Columbia.
Practically
all
the
primary
industries
have
shown
decided
advances,
customs
collections
are
up,
field
crops
showed
ah
increase
of
something
like
two
million
dollars.
Every
jnrutry
seems
to
lywe
been
affected.
The
review
closes
with
the
following
words:
"The
firfct
month
of
1935
finds
business
sentiment
more
optimistic
than
in
any
new
year
since
1929."
