Its strategic importance has already been recognized but whether it will be carried out is for the. future to decide. , J? nce RuPert has key position in Northern British Columbia and, if there should be war, this would be one of the first places to be attacked by an enemy. With Northern British Columbia in the hands of an enemy, an effort would undoubtedly be made to take" and keep all the country north of the railway including Alaska. This would include a country that is rich in minerals, timber, fish and agricultural land such as an overcrowded country would need. For this reason the defense of Prince Rupert is of paramount importance to Canada. It is verv much to be desired that work on the defense should commence as soon as possible after the meeting of Parliament or even before that. PROJECTS THAT INTEREST PRINCE RUPERT The outstanding projects that interest Prince Rupert just now are adequate defense of the port, completion of the highway, erection of a pulp mill, construction of an airplane and seaplane base, direct connection by rail with the Peace River country and improvement of tourist facilities at Prince Rupert including the establishment of a tourist hotel either by the improvement of an existing one or the erection of a new one. Last but not least comes city beautification by the co-operation of the city, the railway company, the provincial government and the citizens. This seems to be rather a large order but none of the items mentioned, are impossible of .achievement and to bring them to fruition all the energies of the citizens should be part of the country remains now to be seen.
