concern,
this
is
a
prospect
that
may
still
materialize.
But
since
the
cost
of
putting
the
structure
back
into
full
operation
would
be
about
$3,000,000,
it
is
more
likely
that
the
equipment
will
be
sold
on
a
oiecemeal
basis
and
hauled
away.
Possibly
some
of
it
will
go
to
the
naval
base
at
Esquimalt,
for
which
x
$5,XX),000
expansion
program
has
just
been
announced.
Should
this
happen
without
any
further
use
being
made
of
the
site,
Prince
Rupert's
future
will
take
on
a
very
gloomy
shade
and
the
CNR
will
find
its
public
relations
here
extremely
uncomfortable
no
matter
what
its
reasons
for
deciding
t5
sell.
But
it
is
difficult
to
believe
that
this
valuable
waterfront
property
will
remain
vacant
for
long.
Already
there
is
speculation
that
a
sawmill
.
or
a
plywood
plant
might
be
located
there.
With
reference
to
the
latter
it
is
interesting
to
note
that
even
now
logs
from
the
interior
are
being
dumped
there
for
haulage
to
a
plywood
factory
at
New
Westminster.
The
economies
that
would
be
realized
by
establishing
the
industry
here
are
too
obvious
to
need
elaboration.
Whatever
happens,
some
provision
must
be
made
to
continue
operations
for
the
repair
of
fishing
boats.
In
such
an
active
fishing
port
as
Prince
Rupert,
this
is
an
essential
service.
As
to
the
rest,
if
Prince
Rupert
obtains
a
new
industry
it
will
be
bdtter
than
vainly
dreaming
of
the
day
when
we
might
