A

A7HILE
the
British
Columbia
government
is
YY
embarking
upon
such
new
roadbuilding
projects
as
the
Pine
Pass
connection
from
Prance
George
to
the
Peace
KFver
"and
it
is
hoped
soon
the
completion
of
the
gap
in
the
northern
transprovincial
highway
between
Prince
Geoge
and
McBride,
major
highway
improvements
which
are
to
be
carried
out
might
be
reasonably
expected
to
take
care
of
the
making
of
a
first
class
road
of
the
whole
highway
from
Vancouver
up
jthe
Fraser,
through
the
Cariboo,
past
Prince
George
and
westward
through
the
central
interior
and,
down
the
Bulkley
and
Fraser
River
valleys
intd
Prince
Rupert.
And.
when
we
talk
of
making
of
this
a
first
class
road,
we
mean
its
development
as
expeditiously
as
possible
jnto
a
hard:surfaced
standard
highway
which
would
really
attract
toiji-ists
and
keep
them
coming
this
way.
.We
may
be
momentarily
appeased
with
tem.-poifetry
expedients
such
as
grading
and
spreading
'
of
'gravel,
straightening
out
of
curves
here
and
thej-e,
re-roiibng
some
especially
bad
sections
but
the"'
-best
that
can
be.
done
along
this
line
cannot
be
any
mofte
than
inefficient
patching
up
and
will
no-be
permanently
satisfactory
or
Efficient.
It
is
noj,
we
believe,
flying
our
kite
too
high
to
persist
in
jour
advocacy
of
such
a
permanent
highway
whicfy
after
all,
wojild
not
only
be
one
of
the
most
potentially
attractive
tourist
avenues
in
western
Cahada
but
wauld
also
serve
all
the
way
from
Vancouver
to
Prince
Rupert
along
its
present
route
the
greatest
new
area
of
potential
natural
resources
agriculture,
timber,
mines
in
all
of
British
Columbia.
'Nor
is
it
top,
much,
for
us
to
suggest
that
the
marking
out
pf
the
road,
to
Prince
Rupert
a
really
permanent
and
lasting
highway
before
essaying
on!
the
undertaking
of'
construction
of
other
road
projects'
is
not
"beyond
the.
bounds
of
justifiable
adyocacy.
The
highway
to
Prince
Rupprt
may
yvejl
be
regarded
as
pne.pf
the
greatest
trunk
highways
in
British
Colunjbia'and
one
of
the
most
deserving
pf
first

and

"Scouting
is'
not

to
keep

it
