In

at

the

attitude
of

Commission
were
presented.
Council's
view
of
the
"decision",
which
was
made
public
last
night
was
that
the
city
"was
getting
the

around"
when
the

on

expressed
by

they

had
given
further
approval
to
certain
matters
before
the
franchise
recommended
by
the
city
of
Prince
Rupert
should
be
approved."
The
Provincial
Secretary
listed
the
"matters"
as
these:
1.
The
matter
of
license
fees
that
the
City
Council
might
the
franchise
be
given
to

2.

are

The
Provincial
Secretary's
letter

"The
Commission
takes
the
position
that
the
matter
