Our information upon the proposed am- endments is to the effect that only railroads (or their subsiduaries, such. as the Island Freight Lines) will be given Public Carriers’ Licenses to op- erate on public roads, fhe Government has fined three truck Comparties for operating to the Okanagan and on the Cariboo road, having previously accepted a toll of ten cents per 100 pounds at Spuzzum. With the above in mind it looks as if the Government is prepared to isolate the Interior from the Coast for the benefit of the Railways. We are sending a copy of this let- ter to all the Boards of Trade who will be affected, as well as to the Newspapers in the Fraser Valley. We urge you to write to your Re- presentative, insisting that you be fully’ advised of any contemplated changes in the Highway Act And that any regulation which may ibe con- templated, be fair to the Freight and Bus Lines which have been giving your district service in the past. We feel that the subject is of vital importance to the whole of British Columbia, and that each Board of Trade concerned should be consulted before any step is taken by the Gov- ernment.
