THE
CASE
FOR
PRINCE
RUPERT,

was
pleaded
by
S.
W.
Fair-t
weather,
C.N.R.
vice-president,
before
the
U.S.
Senate
in
Washington,
observes
the
Vancouver
News
-Herald,
whose
sentiments
will
be
commended
in
Prince
Rupert
which
appreciates
the
able
case
made
out,
indicating
that
the
Canadian
National
is
really
going
out
to
bring
the
Alaska
trade
to
Prince
Rupert.
Mr.
Fairweather
forecast
a
bright
future
for
Prince
Rupert,
and
for
the
C.N.R.'s
northern
business,
if
the
U.S.
would
relax
the
Jones
Act
of
1920.
This
act
provides
that
only
U.S.
ships
may"
carry
goods
between
U.S.
coastal
ports
and
possessions.
Effect
of
the
act
is
to
give
Seattle
shipping
a
virtual
monopoly
of
the
Alaska
trade,
and
eliminate
completely
British
Columbia
ports.
The
C.N.R.
vice-president
was
supported
by
Governor
Ernest
Gruening
of
Alaska;
E.
L.
Bart-lett,
Alaska's
delegate
to
Congress;
Ralph
Rivets,
Alaska's
attorney-general,
and
Oscar
L.
Chapman,
U.S.
undersecretary
of
the
interior.
All
of
them
have
long
been
urging
repeal
of
the
Jones
Act
as
discriminatory
against
Alaska.
One
of
the
underlying
motives
for
Alaska's
drive
for
statehood
is
the
fact
that
such
legislation
as
the
Jones
Act
would
then
be
unconstitutional
as
discriminating
against
one
state.
Alaskans
want
Canadian
ships
to
be
permitted
to
carry
U.S.
goods
to
their
territory.
It
would
give
Alaska
more
service,
more
competition,
competitive
rates,
and
an
alternative
lifeline
in
the
event
of
strikes
and
other
maritime
disturbancs.

Gruening,

before
the
Senate,

FAITH
REWARDED
IT
MAY
BE
SAID
of
Prince
Rupert
that
no
longer
I
need
there
be
serious
question
as
to
the
future
of
this
newest
of
the
cities
of
the
west.
One
realizes
it
now
as
never
before.
True
there
is
still
a
long
way
to
go.
Yet
there
is
a
momentum,
an
impetus
perhaps
far
off
and
faint
but
nevertheless
on
its
way.
'
It
would
be
prodigal
to
suggest
that
there
will
be
freedom
from
disappointment
in
days
to
come.
That
is
part
of
the
price
of
progress.
Enterprise,
faith,
example
and
.confidence
will
do
much.
Priceless
natural
advantages
will
do
more
as
artificial
barriers
are
removed.
And
so,
the
men
and
women
who
came
when
Prince
Rupert
was
youngmany
of
whom
are
still
carrying
on
hold
an
assured
place.
A
new
seaport
is
risjns:
in
the
northwest,
a
city
destined
to
come,
.
sometime,
in
a
changing
world.
To"
have
had
something
to
do
with
its
founding,
even
though
in
a
comparatively
obscure
way,
cannot
but
be
a
source
of
satisfaction
and
pride.
