ACTION

WITH

Cove

base
now
being
declared
surplus
to
War
Assets
and
the
Department
of
Transport
withdrawing
from
the
property
at
the
end
of
this
month,
the
question
of
Prince
Rupert's
facilities
for
the
mooring
and
servicing
of
aircraft
Commercial
and
privates-comes
to
he
fore
again.
A
few
months
ago,
considerable
enthusiasm
was
displayed
about
obtaining
the
necessary
buildings
and
Accommodation
there
for
a
civic
airport.
The
city
was
offered
the
property
for
a
nominal
rental
of
$1
per
year
but
closing
of
the
deal
appears
to
have
become
bogged
down
on
the
failure
to
settle
on
the
overhead
ntailed
for"
the
city
in
connection
with
insurance
and
maintenance.
Now
that
the
property
is
to
be
declared
surplus,
there
will
have
to
be
an
early
decision
as
to
its
future
disposition.
It
may
involve
the
question
of
whether
Prince
Rupert
is
to
have
public
airport
facilities
or
depend
upon
private
interests
coming
in
and
taking
over
the
property
and,
possibly,
its
control.
The
advantages
of
the
municipality
possessing
an
airport
have
been
explained
and
should
be
understood.
Now
the
time
comes
to
do
something
definite
about
it.
There
is
also
the
matter
of
maintaining
services
at
the
base
in
the
meantime.

PROMINENT
LOCAL
BUSINESS
MAN,
long
active
in
public
affairs
A
and
whose
views,
doubtless,
are
shared
by
many,
suggests
for
our
editorial
consideration
that
the
building
of
the
Grand
Trunk
Pacific
Railway
was
Sir
Wilfrid
Laurier's
greatest
undertaking.
Sir
Wilfrid
Launer,
he
condnues,
put
the
Liberal
partv
on
the
map
and
Prime
Minister
King
owes
his
political
success
to
Sir
Wilfrid.
Continuing,
the
local
man
contends
that
Sir
Wilfrid
still
wins
elections
for
the
Liberals
not
only
in
Quebec
where
Laurier's
memory
is
kept
politically
alive
but
in
Canada
as
a
whole.
"One
would,
therefore,
think
that
a
spirit
of
appreciation
would
flame
in
King's
heart
instead
of
permitting
Canadian
Northern
satellites
to
sabotage
the
line
from
Jasper
to
Prince
Rupert."
In
the
view
of
our
friend,
officials
who
say
"we
are
interested
in
anything
that
will
develop
Prince
Rupert"
are
merely
parroting
their
superiors.
"Can
anvone
point
to
anything
they
have
doner
to
develop
Prijice
Rupert?
If
so
they
should
trot
it
out.
If,
for
instance,
the
new
ship
could,
not
have
been
built
at
Prince
Rupert
as
cheaply,
if
not
cheaper,
than
at
another
yard
owing
to
unproductive
overhead
here,
a
housecleaning
is
required."
There
is
at
least
one
point
in
the
views
of
our
friend
that
most
every
one
will
agree
upon
and
that
is
that
the
government
and
the
railway
company
should
take
us
into
their
confidence
as
soon
and
as
fully
as
possible
as
to
what
is
being
done
to
develop
Prince
Rupert
Those
who
still
believe
that
they
have
a
spark
of
friendly
interest
in
us
would
be
bolstered
up
if
they
told
us
what
is
being
done
not
only
in
general
but
in
specific
terms.
It
would
also
tend
to
foster
the
spirit
of
co-operation
between
the
community
of
Prince
Rupert
and
the
interests
whose
active
support
we
must
have
if,
after
these
years
of
frustration,
we
are
to
soon
have
the
development
which
we
feel
has
long
been
our
due.
.
Meantime,
while
the
patience
of
some
of
our
citizens
may
be
tried
in
awaiting
the
concrete
manifestation
of
same,
there
is
reason
we
believe,
to
suppose
that
interest
in
the
development
of
this
part
of
the
country
is
really
on
the
rise.
Possibly
there
are
good
reasons
why
certain
things
phould
not
be
too
widely
publicized
as
yet.

are
preparing
briefs
in
opposition.
Every
citizen
in
this
country
has
a
stake
in
this
matter.
It
is
in
everyone's
interest
that
our
railways
be
prosperous,
but
if
freights
increase,
so
does
the
cost
of
living
and
doing
'
business.
Without
exhaustive
examination
of
all
the
facts
it
will
be
impossible
to
determine
the
justice
of
the
railroads'
claims
or
of
those
who
oppose
the
increase.
That
examination,
for
the
time
being,
the
public
can
leave
with
the
transport
board.
But
in
addition
to
specific
claims
two
other
factors
must
be
r
taken
into
cohsfdera-ation.
These
are
competitive
and
service.
Substantially
higher
freight
rates
may
be
justified
on
the
grounds
of
higher
railway
costs
but,
if
they
result
merely,
in
diverting
a
large
volume
of
business
into
the
hands
of
railway
competitors,
then
higher
freights
may
not
be
any
solution.
This
matter
must
be
treated
not
just
as
a
railroad
problem,
but
as
one
that
concerns
the
moving
of
freight
by
any
form
of
carrier.
And
the
service
angle
cannot
be
ignored.
There
are
many
miles
of
unprofitable
railway
line
in
Canada.
We
have
lopped
off
some
and
can
undoubtedly
lop
off
more.
But
there
are
limits.
It
wouldn't
be
possible
of
course,-
to
confine
operations
only
to
the
profitable
sections
of
the
railroads
If
it
were
it
would
ruin
us
as
a
nation.
The
railroads
must
provide
some
service
to
outlying
parts
of
the
Dominion
whether
that
service
is
profitable
or
not.
If
they
did
not,
both
confederation
and
future
growth
would
be
impossible.

Daily
News,
Please
allow
me
space
In
your
good
publication
to
Insert
the
following
views.
I
am
a
native
fisherman
and
have
thought
of
a
few
things
in
connection
with
our
valuable
fishing
industry
which
might
be
cf
interest
to
our
thinking
fishermen.
A
great
task
and
an
expensive
one
entailing
hard
labor
and
millions
cf
dollars
has
been
the
Job
cf
Improving,
protecUng
and
maintaining
our
salmon
spawning
streams
and
fish
hatcherie?
in
British
Columbia.
Fortunately,
however,
our
labor
and
expenses
are
not
futile
for
it
is
encouraging
to
realize
that
our
salmon
8.re
increasing
in
numbers
in
almost
every
fishing
centre
on
the
coast
of
B.C.
I
am
thankful
to
hear
that
United
States,
following
an
investigation,
passed
a
bill
in
1945
to
fake
care
of
her
off-shore
lishing
beyond
the
three-mile
limit.
Before
the
war
Japan
employed
large
ships
and
mother
ships.
complete
with
canneries
on
board,
down
the
coasts
of
Alaska
and
Briton
Columbia,
returning
to
Japa
with
hclds
leaded
with
valuable
American
and
Canadian
.salmon.
Of
wh3t
value
then,
would
be
our
huge
investments
on
conservation
if
we
allowed
foreign
powers
to
con
tinue
fishing
fust
beyond
the
three
mile
limit,
while
our
salmon
head
out
to
sea
15
to
30
miles
to
feed
and
grow?
The.
"cocky"
little
Jap
will
be
back
to
his
old
game
very
soon
if
we
dont
get
together
and
provide
a
measure
to
prevent
him.
I
believe
the
boundaries
of
our
te-ritorlal
waters
should
be
ex
tended
farther
out
and
have
coast
uards
on
the
look-out.
If
we
fail
in
this,
then
let
us
stop
wasting
time
and
money
on
our
conservation
projects,
for
this
is
one
sure
way
of
permitting,
cer
tain
annihilation
to
our
valuable
salmon.
This
is
certainly
possible.
What
of
nemC
electrical
devices
whl:h
are
able
to
detect
fish
nhocts
and
fish
masses
at
sea?
These
instruments",
com-;
4bined
with
''modern
'fCthingi
equipment,
present
an
undeniable
threat
to
our
already5,
depleted
salmon
reserves.
A
very
heavy
amount
of
vari
ous
types
of
fish
comes
from
Hecate
Straits
nd
it
is
a
very
,
valuable
fishing
ground
to
Cana-
strain
on
its
fish
reserves.
I
also
believe
the
United
States
would
have
done
so
if
she
had
this
body
of
water
lying
between
her
territories.
This
large
body
of
water.
Hecate
Straits,
Is
where
the
major
part
cf
our
young
salmon
go
to
feed,
grow
and
play.
If
these
steps
that
I
have
suggested
are
ever
taken,
then
we
can
happily
say
that
we
are
protecting
our
valuable
and
wealthy
industry
for
our
god
j
Canadian
fishermen.
Not
only
i
that,
if
these
measures
are
taken
we
can
then
consider
our
hard
labor,
our
taxes
In
the
millions
of
dollars,
well
placed
and
well
pent
for
the
protection
and
prolongation
of
our
salmon
reserve
and
industry.
I
want
to

you
