Why is lliere Still no West Outlet From llines Creek? Many, many yeara ago in far: away back In 1927 a railroad r onnalssarvce engineer submitted a report on a proposed railway oute from Whitclaw to Hudson -lope, paralleling the Peace River on the north side with a we.en mtlet through the peace pass a;, he ultimate destination, writes w . Hematock in the Peace Rivci tecoid. In the year 1927 Wembley wa-the terminus of the railway on thr south side and Whltelaw was eno i s.eel on the north side. The report stated that further extensions vould be required on both sides of :he river to provide transportation facilities for the influx of settlers and it indicated that the road from Aembley to Pouce Coupe (65 niles) and from Whitelaw wester iy to the Fort St. John Block "ould be required to serve the good agricultural area on both sides of the Peace River. Wembley Extension The Wembley extension was soon completed but we are still patiently or impatiently waiting for the i north -side road to be built. Down through the years we have been pleading, petitioning and striving for this extension. We have written members of Parliament, provincial and federal, Ministers of Public Works In Alberta and B.C., boards of trade, etc., asking that some consideration be given this project. We have broad- and had maps drawn showing the importance and feasibility of this extension. While ttfe practicability of the undertaking has never been questioned, it still remains an unbeaten trail. All reports prove conclusively thai the construction of the road would be relatively inexpensive, with no engineering difficulties to overcome. The trip from Fair view to Port Si. John was made some 12 years ago in a Ford car in a little over three hours. Tons of flour were hauled by sleigh in 1935 from Pair-view flour mills to Montenay. in the heart of the Port St. John i Block. In 1940 four Ft ewe Prairie farmers made the overland trip to Falrvicw to enlist our aid in their effort to get an outlet to market, and Incidentally demonstrating the feasibility of the route. A government soil survey some years aw revealed that some of the richest soil in Canada lies along this proposed route, and, while providing an outlet to mar ket for this productive area, it would have the double purpose of shortening the distance from Ert-nonton to the Alaska highway by 99 miles. When the railway engineer made the reconnalaance survey repprt In 1927. he touched on the possibility of getting a good gradient through the Peace pass to the Pacific. This Peace River country has been called a great Inland Empire and we are apt to overlook the fact that Ihe B.C.-Alberta boundary, west of the Hlnes Creek in the heart of the Peace River lies only some 360 miles from tide water in the Pacific. I therefore submit the following comparisons: The Lethbridge section of Alberta Is farther from seaboard than Peace River, and they have an outlet to the west coast. The Calgary section. 150 miles farUier north, has also an outlet to the west coast, and Edmonton, 200 miles north of Calgary, has its outlet to the Pacific. But the Peace River area. 350 miles northwest from Edmonton, many miles nearer i ; n ?.n i urn ra i h i ith i bib i Our Delivery Schedule 3 DELIVERIES WEEKLY g TUESDAY, THURSDAY, B SATURDAY 5 II Please co-operate by placing g your order as early as possl- g ble.

LINK IS MISS WAR WORKER William Phillips MISSING Is Sent to India Miss Aurelie Bcllavance In tune with the times, Canada has abandoned beauty and popularity contests to select Miss Canada, and the like, and the Canadian public now reserves Its plaudits for "Miss War Worker." At a contest held at Prairie Airways Limited, Aircraft Division, Miaa Aurelie Bell-avance was elected queen of the war workers, and accompanied by her entourage, "Miss Sheet Metal," "Miss Fabric," Miss Assembly," and "Miss Prairie Airways" was taken by plane to ..Prince Albert, Sask., where they inspected the plants of the M.

Aviation Company. the west coast ana with natural resources and production compar cast the urgent need over CFOP able to any of the other sections, is not even supplied with a high way or a railroad to its own western borders, let alone an outlet to the coast I'uizled and Baffled We admit now that we are positively prazled and baffled when we try to reason out why the completion of this connecting link continues to be Ignored. Whether you look upon it from the standpoint of a market highway serving a fertile plain, or as part of a trunk road leading to the Pacific ( it seems amply justified. We continue to hear rumors of railroad extension and highway extension westward buCaS tar as I the Hlnes Creek highway Is con cerned, B.C. is B.C. and Alberta is Alberta . . . and the twain have not yet met.

In a particular way, we pledge ourselves to: 1. Have a thorough survey made of school facilities, to the end that extension and Improvement be made as soon as practically possible. , 2. Make every effort toward having improvement made In condition of city streets and bring into effect immediately the amended Traffic Bylaw as recommended by the police officials. i 3. Survey the sufficiency and condition of fire-fighting equipment. 4. Examine conditions and contracts existing between the city and government authorities, with particular reference to existing sanitary arrangements, housing, school and street conditions. To take any action necessary. 5. Arrange for a thorough check-up, by competent authority, of the capacity and condiUon of the city's water system, particularly as regards the Woodworth Dam and the main supply line. To take any action such examination might prove necessary. 6. Review the policing program with a view of having improvement made in local conditions. Endeavor to have liquor profits bear larger portion of police costs. 7. Consider present-day needs of transportation and power supply in the Municipality and to take such action as may be deemed necessary to protect the best Interests of the City. 8. Co-operate fully with the Defence Services, keeping In mind civilian needs and Interests. The greatly increased population has thrown heavy pressure on all city services, many of which have had no adequate maintenance for several years. The bringing of these services to sufficiency is a first need, to which we pledge ourselves as and when labor, material and money are available. Permanent industry Is one of the great needs of the community. Every effort will be made to foster the growth of exisUng industries, to encourage the establishment of new ones ond to Improve conditions under which those established are operating, particularly in regard to the fisheries and port facilities. The city MUST take the initiative in such matters. r.e. THE CITY MANAGER APPOINTMENT In the Interests of efficiency and harmony in staif, and to . relieve the Mayor, Council and School Board of much of their routine and detail work, a city manager or superintendent will be appointed. Briefly, such an official's duties will be to supervise schools, clerical staff and the service departments. He will be responsible for the orderly operation of the city's business and would make all appointments to or dismissals from the staff, after consultation with the department heads concerned. He will at all times be responsible to the Mayor and Council The Mayor and Council will determine all matters relating to polky, finance, contracts and bylaws. v . . -. The Mayor and Council will -serve with remuneration until the appointment of a City Manager Is made, after which honorariums will be greatly reduced or eliminated entirely. Ratepayers' Association candidates are definitely not affiliated with any other organized group nor with any particular political party. They are taxpayers who have the best interests of the city at heart. We submit that such a plan as briefly outlined above Is efficient and is in accord with the principles of Democracy. If It appeals to' you. your support is solicited at the polls next Thursday. December 17. . W. M. WATTS, Ratepayers' Association i Candidate for the Mayoralty. , ' (Mrs.) N. E. ARNOLD R. E.
