OTTAWA,
W
The
House
of
Commons
gave
prolonged
study
Wednesday
to
the
trials
of
Canada's
rural
mall
carriers
and
generally
agreed
that
a
Parliamentary
committee
should
investigate
their
cage.
Gordon
Graydon
(Progressive-Conserva
tive,
Peel,
Ontario)
urged
higher
remuneration
for
carriers
and
nrral
postmasters.
During
the
debate
on
mail
delivery,
James
Sinclair
(Liberal,
North
Vancouver)
said
that,
in
all
provinces
except
British
Col
umbia,
the
average
number
of
boxes
on
rural
routes
was
50.
In
British
Columbia
the
average
number
was-
150.
He
asked
why
there
had
to
be
three
times
as
many
boxes
In
British
Columbia
before
a
rural
mall
route
could
be
established
there.
