Road Program Shunned j'f API'KAKS that all the groundwork of Cham-I hi-rs of Commerce, Boards of Trade and Junior Chamhei-s of Central B.C. in their persistent battle to have some serious work program outlined for the area's main transportation artery will not lie rec-1 by the new Social Credit government. In the recent B.C. budget handed down in the Legislature, it is shown that only the $147,5,1 left from the $2,0('),fi00 Coalition budget for improve-mcnts to the Skeena Highway will be available for such w ork this year. This seems preposterous in the face of the gigantic development of the central and northern part of the province. Not continuing the program of making the Skeena Highway a dependable means of communication is a direct policy against the progress of Central B.C. in particular, and the entire province as a whole. While last year's 52,000,000 allotment was not by .any means considered huge, it gave promise of-further such budgets which over a period of the next 10 years would make of our highway one of the ; back to business.

Prince Rupert people and the entire population in the area between here and Prince George are very much "road conscious." The highway represents their main means of travel for business and pleasure, not to mention the importance of it to commerce. If B.C. north of the 54th parallel can't get anymore attention from it's own government than a mere glossing over, its people will have precious little to le thankful-foi- to Victoria. ...... ....... ,.
