already
indicated
was
the
step
to
have
the
restrictive
load
line
regulations
of
the
Maritime
Shipping
Commission
altered
so
that
the
northern
boundary
would
be
moved
north,
to
the
Fifty-Sixth
narallel.
This
would
remove
a
handicap
under
which
the
port
of
Prince
Rupert
lias
suffered
seriously.
Trade
Commissioner
O'Meara's
reaction
to
various-
proposals
was
favorably
commented
upon.
The
committee
decided
to
explore
the
possibilities
of
having
outside
pulp
and
paper
interests
advised
directly
of
the
timber
resources
of
the
district.
The
fact
that
there
was
125,000
horse'nower
available
in
the
dis
trict
.should
be
an
important
factor
as
the
development
of
tne
reeion
was
being
planned.
At
present
only
5000
horsepower
is
being
developed
at
the
Falls
River
plant
of
the
Northern
B.C.
Power
Company.
Correspondence
Indicated
that
the
Prince

was
in
direct
contact
with
interests
in
Great

and
a
report
should
be
forth
coming
within
the

One
