Economy
of
transpor
tation
by
water
and
the
absence
of
any
paralleling
land
shipment
routes
has
strengthened
the
basic
solidity
of
the
line
in
such
a
way
that
development
has
followed
the
steamship
routes
but,
because
of
dependence
on
them,
has
developed
certain
characteristics
peculiar
to
the
slowness
of
water-borne
traffic.
In
broad
outline,
Vancouver
is
the
centre
of
distribution
and
industry
for
the
entire
route
to
be
traversed.
Ideally,
therefore,
Vancouver
should.be
able
to
service
its
markets
'with
the
greatest
rapidity
and
economy
posr
siblc.
A
very
large
amount
of
the
usual
business
intercourse
prevailing
normally
between
urban
and
rural
areas;
exists;
Prince
Rupert
and
the
Queen
Charlotte
Islands
purchase
practically
all
their
supplies
In.
Vancouver.
Thus
a
complete
community
of
interest
exists
between
.
points
along
the
line.
The
level
-
of
business
activity
in
the
industries
directly
related
within
Vancouver
Is
dependent
upon
the
level
of
the
world'
regions
which
border
our
proposed
route.
On
the
other
hand,
the
rural
areas
depend
almost
exclusively
upon
Vancouver
firms
for
a
continuance
of
their
op
erations.
This
'Intcr-dcpendcnc
between
all
the
commercial
activities
throughout
the
areas
concerned
has
established
an
almost
unbreakable

of

Chamber
of
Mines,
yesterday
urged
the
Do-mlniongoverntnent
to
expend
tax
relief
as
a
means
to
aid
the
mining
industry.
"I
consider,"
said
Mr.
Jukes,
"there
Is
only
one
way
In
which
Canada's
gold
mines
can
be
re
vived.
That
is
for
the
Dominion
government
to
greatly
extend
Its
tax
relief
to
this
branch
of
the
Industry."
Mr.
Jukes
said
that
only
a
limited
amount
of
speculative
capital
was
available
for
explor
ation
and
development
of'
new
mines
in
Canada.
"At
the
present
time,"
he
said,
"it
would
appear
that,
the
tax
authorities
are
only
interested
in
collecting
their
share
of
what
profits
are
made
from
existing
mines
now
being
.depleted
at
a
rapid
rate."
Hon.
R.
C.
Macdonald,
provincial
minister
of
mines,
also
told
the
thirty-fourth
meeting
of
the
organization
that
tax'
re-lief
was
needed.
He
said:
"It
is
up
to
us
to
see
that
the
mining
industry
Is
given
every
chance
to
grow.
Government,
management
and
labor
must
walk:
together
and
there
must
be
give
and
take
and
no
grasping
for
selfish
reasons
by
any
one
part
of
the
industry.
We
cannot
have
such
things
as
arbitrary
wage
scales
and
working
conditions
laid
down
either
by
management
or
men
in
this
province.
Thero
must
be
llexibility
If
wc
would
achieve
a
maximum
amount-
of
employment
and
the
greatest
benefit
to
all
from
our
mining'
Industry."
