a

the

Walter

has
been
in
Smithers
for
several
days
completing
data
on
his
proposed
route
for
the
best
location
ol
the
much

of
Alaska
Highway
through
British
Col

This
route.
Is
one
that

at-?

as
yet
but
the
figures
compiled
by
Mr.
Wilson
wouM

various
routes
so
far
suggested.
Besides
those
advantages.
,it
has
the
advantage
of
rail

service
to
Hazelton,
the
starting
point,,
and
Is
closest
to
the
coast
which
gives
It
easy
access
to
the
many
ports
along
the
Alaska
pan-handle.
Mr.
Wilson
has
prepared
a
map
which
will
be
submitted
to
the
provincial
government
and
which
shows
the
route
from
Hazelton
up
the
Klsplox
River,
thence
over
to
the

River,

approach
this

Add
to
these
the
feasibility
of
having
the
ports
along

coast
connect
with
this
route
and
the
extra
advantage
of
being
able
to
get

the
equipment

supplies
to
construct
the
road
at
the
lowest

cost-

It
