Decided
to
Broaden
Activities
There
was
a
meeting
yesterday
broaden
out
the
activities
of
th
bureau
to
Include
Industrial
development
not
only
In
Prince
Rupert
but
throughout
the
whole
district
so
far
as
possible.
It
was
felt
that
the
advancement
of
the
district
meant
the
advancement
of
Prince
Rupert.
A
vote
of
thanks
was
passed
to
all
who
loaned
material
or
did
anything
to
help
forward
the
success
of
the
Bureau
during
the
first
attempt.
