Robert

in

statement,
con
demned
the
proposed

as
"indirect

Under

Comments

In

"It
Is

up,"
said
Olof
Hanson,
late
Member
of
Parliament
for
Skeena,
Saturday
afternoon
in
discussing
the
present
position
of
the
highway.
Mr.
Hanson
explained
that
the
military
authorities,
having
in.
timated
that
the
road
was
no
longer
required,
the
$11,000,000
project
was
now
in
process
of
being
turned
over
to
the
pro
vincial
government.
Meanwhile
the.
road
was
passable,
notwith
standing
the
snowslldes
which
had
blocked
it-near
Kwinltsa:
It
was
nonesense
to
talk
of
the
road
beinsr
closed
up
or
abandoned.
It
would,
of
course,
be
maintained
like
other
