Cariboo, only a few short years ago, seemed to us one of those romantic, luring parts of the province which it was almost impossible for m to see because it was so remote of access.. Now, as Mr. Lebourdais suggests, Prince Rupert people can get over there in little more than a good day's driving, if one wants to speed up a bit. He invites us to stop over and pay a visit with the hospitable Cariboo folk the next time we go by that way. What goes for the Cariboo applies to the nearer districts which the highway opens up to us. Incidentally, Mr. Lebourdais is one of those who believes that the extension of the Pacifit Great Eastern Railway to Prince George and on into the Peace River would be of benefit to Prince Rupert through making it possible to bring the Peace River grain that much closer to us on the northern Jine-of the Canadian National Railways. Many Prince Rupert "people, of courseware not satisfied that the Peace River railway outlet should "be that way. Meantime, no less a. person than Premier Hart himself tells us that the . government is determined to extend the Pacific Great Eastern to the Peace River. At the same time-we would still do well to continue pressing for the Peace River outlet, something "about vhich it is a pity there has been so little support so far for the few enthusiastic advocates. The outlet is the thing and we had better -show some enthusiasm about it, some way or other. The Hazelton route has a good deal of surveying yet to be done CANADA'S POSITION IT IS TIMELY that the Finance I Minister, Mr. Ilsley, should have enumerated some of the fine economic accomplishments of the Mackenzie King government. If the government has failed in one thing, it has been in emphasizing by publicity its accomplishments. At the. same time, its opponents have in season and out berated it, possibly some times quite unjustly, and the rejoinders have been pitifully weak or laX-king altogether when they m igh t have been mighty strong. All Canadians' have been proud of Canada's fine war record of production and economic stability. Now Mr. Ilsley fittingly reminds us that we have been coming through the postwar period very creditably indeed. We have Dut to compare ourselves with any other nation in the world to agree with him. , A concise dispatch appearing today .on the front page refers to some of the factors in Canada's economic postwar picture whicli we may view with satisfaction and give credit to the administration even if we have had to pay for through the nose, by the way of continued heavy taxation wliich irritates us all. SIX MILLS ON BABINE LAKE Typical of the "booming lumber production activity which Is tojbfe seen throughout the Interpol- country these days in supplying a keen market demand, h6 less than six mills are at present operating on PendletbnBay, Ba-bine Lake, It was repored Wednesday by Louis Lebourdais, m!l.A. for Cariboo, who has be-c$he Interested In that area where hia two sons are establishing themselves In ranching Twenty-five 'trucklo'a'as b'f lumber; are being hauled out daily over a fine road to Burns Lake where and at Decker Lake a 'good d(al "of it is planed before slilp-mfnt.

P.O. BOX 721 FEDERAL COALITION hRIME MINISTER MACKENZIE r KING, judging from the tone of a statement oh the matter in a press interview at Ottawa yesterday, does not appear to be spuming the idea of a coalition government. He does 'hot like it but admits that "under certain circumstahces," it might appear advisable. Possibly, the results of the recent- by-elections have mellowed his views on the subject olY "going it alone." On the other hand, "the heartened progressive-Conservatives appear a little bolder as evidenced by Mr.: Diefenbaker's latest statement that the party is "on the way back" as Canada's next government. In view of political trends in the federalfield, it would riot be unlikely if the idea of coalition would come in for some serious consideration. As evidence of the low cost of daily newspaper advertising, one classified advertisement In an American metropolitan dally, costing only $3.50, sold a $45,000 building. Francis Williams, -public relations advisor to Prime Minister Attlee, has suggested that membership In the United Nations: "Should be limited to those countries that guarantee freedom of Information and news." BOARD EXTENDS INSURANCE PLAN Prince Rupert District School Board moved Wednesday to extend Its liability Insurance, protecting ;he board In case of in jury to pupils, over a three-year period, rather than for the one-year period for which it is purchased at present. The three- year plan would save annually about $13 In premiums as comr pared with the one-year policy.
