Prospector? i Stop PGE Extension GORDON (JIBSON, MLA for Lillooct, was on firm rouml when, in a radio address this week, he criticized Premier Bennett's determination to extend the southern extremity of the I'GK from .Squamish to North Vancouver. At a cost of millions to the province, Mr, Bennett proposes a step that' not only will lie uneconomical hut w ill put the I'vIK at the mercy of the CNR at both end.;. According to Mr. (Jihson's estimate, barring of railway cars from Squamish to Vancouver could he accomplished for $24 each, whereas interest rates on the money required to extend the railway would cost from $50 to .$100 a car at the present traffic rate. Mr. Gibson's suggestion was that all rail lines be allowed to establish shipping facilities at Squamish which would then become a main terminal point in its own right. , The wisdom of establishing Squamish as a port of any size is perhaps debatable, but there can be no question that the Premier will be making an unreasonable and impractical financial imposition on B.C. as a whole if he goes through with his intention to extend the PGE southward. Why should people in this part of B.C. be forced to support a project which gives the provincial economy another'push to the south? And wliy -hould anyone anywhere in B.C. seek to make the PGE virtually a subsidiary of the CNR? Since the CNR has traffic on its own main line to protect, it nay be safely assumed that it would not allow the PGE to manoeuvre itself into any kind of competitive position. If the PGE connected with the CNR , at both ends, the necessary restraints would not be difficult to exercise. : ; I here is, good reason also to contest the proposed northward extension of, the PGE as a means of tapping the Peace River country. A line originating 'farther to the west would open up a much greater expanse of that rich area. But if the provincial government does undertake that project, it has still less justification ' for spending more millions to create an outlet to the south.; The necessary .outlet for Peace River produce already exists. It is right here.. Lh rn.tr.
