Regional
Reciprocity
RKV.
WILLIAM
HILLS,
ex-naval
padre
and
eon-siderably
travelled
vicar
of
the
Anglican
Church,
who
majored
at
college
in
political
economy
as
well
as
theology
and
who
came
to
the
city
from
Victoria
to
talk
to
the
Women's
Canadian
Club,
advanced
a
rather
daring
suggestion
before
the
Gyro
Club
here
yesterday
that
regional
reciprocity
between
the
Province
of
Hritish
Columbia
and
the
Pacific
Northwest
States
be
entertained
as
a
practical
legislative
possibility.
From
the
defence
standpoint,
Mr.
Hills
pointed
out,
British
Columbia
is
inevitably
involved
as
between
the
outpost
of
Alaska
and
Continental
United
States.
All
would
be
quickly
merged
in
a
scheme
of
practical
defence
in
case
of
conflict.
Why
should
they
not
proceed
with
a
measure
of
that
merging
even
before
such
conflict
might
arise?
Mr.
Hills,
it
must
be
admitted,
has
a
case
there
even
though
the
word
reciprocity
might
still
be
an-anathema
to
some
of
us
as
it
was
back
in
1911
and
in
spite
of
the
situation
between
1942
and
1913
when
the
Americans
practically
took
us
over
and
we
were
quite
satisfied
about
it.
Here
in
Prince
Rupert
we
know
that
sentimentally
there
might
as
well
be
no
border
between
our
Alaskan
friends
and
we
northern
and
central
British
Columbians.
The
whole
thing
is
artificial
and
the
artificiality
is
being
retained
by
two
factors
a
superfluity
of
national
sentiment
and
sectional
commercial
interests."
We
know
there
is
a
lot
of
nonsense
which
prevents
Canadian
Prince
Rupert
being
used
as
it
should
be
as
the
port
of
United
States
Alaska.
Reciprocity
as
proposed
would
be
a
vital
factor
in
the
development
of
Prince
Rupert
as
one
of
the
links
in
the
chains
of
communication
which
some
day,
current
artificial
barriers
and
obstacles
notwithstanding,
will
be
forged
across
British
Columbia's
coast
and
interior
between
the
main
United
States
and
its
great
northwestern
outpost,
the
implications
of
which
in
the
international
scene
are
so
obviously
seen
today.

THE

Con-
gress
of
Canada
has
admitted
the
danger

its

to

the
banning
of
any
of

That
is
a
considerable
turn-about
when

considers
