Keep
the
Elevator
Open
FOR
NEARLY
two
years
now
Prince
Rupert's
waterfront
has
shared
in
the
activity
of
the
nation's
all-around
first
industry
agriculture
with
the
reopening
of
the
Dominion
government
grain
elevator.
Canada's
grainfields
have
yielded
splendidly
in
the"
last
three
years.
This
year
promises
to
produce
'
a-crop
only
slightly
helow
the
record
one
of
last
season!
But
somehow,
the
federal
government
has
:
deemed
it
necessary
to
warn
the
nation
that
its
.."crop
might
be
difficult
to
market.
This
situation
lies
in
the
face
of
thousands
upon
thousands
of
near-starving
people
in
the
Orient
and
.
in
Other
countries
less
fortunate
than
we,
who
are
'
among
the
world's
primary
bread-wheat
producers.
A
stoppage
of
grain
shipping
would
seriously
affect
Prince
Rupert's
waterfront
activity
and
its
economy
as
well
as
that
of
the
entire
country.
But
this
could
likely
be
avoided
if
the
Canadian
Wheat
'
Board
sharpened
its
pencils
a
little
and
narrowed
down
the
margin
of
profit
on
a
bushel
of
grain.
.
'
The
buyers
of
our
grain
know
that
we
have
plenty
of
it.
They
feel,
therefore,
that
they
are
entitled
to
a
little
reduction
in
its
price.
Perhaps
we
could
do
much
worse
than
sell
more
wheat
at
a
lower
price.
Or,
we
may
be
pricing
ourselves
out
of
another
lucrative
market
in
the
primary
industries.
-We
have
already
done
so
in
fishing
and
lumbering.
We
Should
be
Prepared
pO'R
the
second
time
in
a
week,
-we
have
found
.'ourselves
unprepared
to
meet
an
emergency.
.
.
.
..
In
the
absence
of
any
established
arrangement
for
handling
rescue
operations
in
this
rugged
fly-
ing
country,
precious
time
was
lost

pounds

But
at
one
stand
I
saw
many
tomatoes
rotting
.on
the
ground.
The
disappointed
farm
wife,
no

had
been
unable
to
sell

ciop
at
any

THERE
IS
something
radically
wrong
with
our
deliberately
bottle-necked
distribution
system
in
Canada,
when
you
have
to
pay
outrageous
prices
for
a
product
only
a
few
hours
drive
from
the
country
where
surpluses
are
allowed
to
rot.
On
the
same
Okanagan
weekend
I
heard
of
one
peach
grower
who
had
decided
to
let
the
remaining
crop
rot
on
the
trees
because
the
cannery
could
accept
no
more
peaches.

But
it
is

as
a
reminder
that
our
greatest,
swiftly
growing
problem
is
still
unfaced
and
because
it
is
unfaced
we
have
not
yet
begun
to
try
to
solve
it.
