before
the

Club
here
yesterday.
"The
i-ale
of
these
goods
after
a
long
haul
across
the
continent
is
possible
to
a
large
degree
by
the
fact
that
we
have
in
this
coun
try
the
cheapest
rail
transport
in
the
world
with
the
exception
of
Japan
where
there
is
practl
cally
slave
labor,"
the
speaker
added.
"The
cost
of
rail
transportation
in
Canada
is
a
trifle
less
than
one
cent
for
moving
one
ton
of
freight
one
mile
and,
with
the
exception
of
Japan,
this
low
cost,
is
only
approached
by
one
other
country,
the
United
States,"
Mr.
Gaffney
said.
"To
arrive
at
this-
rate
there
is
in
effect
a
sliding
scale
based
on
the
principle
of
what
each
traffic
can
afford
to
pay
rather
than
the
actual
cost
of
moving
the
commodity.
"There
is
federal
control
of

in

but
no

control
of

each

way

having

for

the
speaker
stated,
and

that

Yet,

J.
J.
Little,
chairman
of
the
citizens'
rehabilitation
committee
informed
the
city
council's
committee
on
this
subject
at
a
conference
last
night.
This
was
due
to
survey
activities
whlch'a'or-be'eir'cflrrteaalong
quietly
and
effectively
during

cent
months
by
the

committee
of

of
which
Government
Agent
Norman
A.
Watt
Is
chairmarf.
The
citizens
lehabilitatlon
committee
had
been
acting
In
an
advisory
capacity.
The
regional
committee
had
been
functioning
in
three
ways:
first,
occupational
service
for
individuals;
second,
for
small
new
businesses,
and,
third,
industrial
opportunities.
Mr.
Little
referred
to
the
still
live
possibility
of
a
pulp
mill
being
established
at
Prince
Rupert.
This
would
undoubtedly
result
In
many
supporting
industries
coming
here.
"Has
any
survey
been
made
in
regard
to
finding
jobs
for
the
returned
men
coming
home
from
war?"
asked
Mayor
Daggett.
Mr.
Little
felt
that
this
would
not
be
a
serious
problem
since
most
of
the
men
coming
home
had
their
old
jobs
to
return
to.
"But,"

Without
taking
any
deflnltp
action,
the
conference
last
night
was
adjourned
until
such
time
as
Mr.
Little
can
get

CANADA'S

MINISTER
TELLS
HOW
MONEY
TO
BE
USED
OTTAWA,
Aup.

.
Canada's
Ninth
Victory
Loan
will
open
on
October
!22
and
will
be
the
biggest
ever
floated
in
this
country,
Hon.
J.
L.
Ilsley,
minister
of
finance,
announced
today.
The
loan
will
cover
Canada's
borrowing
needs
for
the
next
twelve
months,
the
minister
of
finance
explained,
making
it
unneces
sary
to
have
another
campaign
next
spring.
Mr.
Ilsley
did
not
disclose
the
objective
of
the
drive.
However,
the
fact
that
he
described
the
loan
as
the
biggest
yet
held
In
the-Dominion
means
that
the
objective
necessarily
will
be
higher
than
the
minimum
goal
of
$1,350,000,000
set
In
the
Eighth
Loan
Canada's
biggest
to
date.
In
the
Eighth
Loan,
the
drive
netted
a
total
of
$1,569,000,000
$119,000,000
over
its
minimum
objective.
"One
large
Loan
now
instead
of
two
smaller
Loans,
one
now
and
another
In
the
spring
of
1946,
means
a
real
saving
of
time,
effort
and
expense,"
he
said.
"It
Is
possible
to
aim
for
a
full
year's
needs
In
one
Loan
because
Canada's
borrowing
requirements
over
the
next
twelve
months
will
not
be
as
large
as
they
have
been
in
recent
years.
"Victory
has
been
won
in
Eur
ope
and
in
the
Pacific.
The
end
of
hostilities
means
the
end
of
many
war
costs.
But,
we
now
face
new
tasks.
And,
these
new
tasks
bring
new
needs.
So,
total
outlays
and
borrowing
requirements
wil
continue
at
high
levels.
"For

men
In

of
thousands

brought
back
to
their
homeland
from
overseas.
This
will
take
time
because
of
shipping
shortages
and
continuing
operations
in
occupied
areas.
Meanwhile,
they
must
be
paid,
fed,

and
cared

a

This

the

the

Many

"People
in

The
United

Including
Canada,
are
making

The
money
Canada

an
Investment
in

future

"Then,
there

"Plans

By

They
