Invitation
to
Prince

Recently
the
Prince
Rupert
Chamber
of
Commerce
sent
a
communication
to
Vancouver.
New
Westminster
and
Victoria
Boards
of
Trade
expressing
re
sentment
at
not

excursion

country.
The
Vancouver
Board
has
written
In
reply
explaining
that
It
was
essentially
a
Vancouver
Board
of
Trade
mission
and
It
was
merely
coincidental
that
the
presidents
of
the
Victoria
and
New

went
along.

It

Invited.
In

of
the
circumstances.
It
was
conceded
that
Prince
Rupert
had
no
alternative
but
to
be
represented
at
the
Vancouver
conference
and
It
Is
probable
that

"During

your

visited

we

took
a

option
on
the
local

station
CFPR.
The
station
has
since
been
operated
by

"The
Intimation
at

was
that
the

would
very

that
