It was pointed out that as the population of the unorganized territories in the district is larger than that of the municipality, the proportion of costs to be borne by Kent under the new contract was unfair. The delegation of police officers included Deputy Police Commis sioner J. Shirras, and Inspector D. Moses, Victoria; Inspector C.

Clarke of division, and Sgt. S. Raybone, head of the Chilliwack detachment. The council will ask for a re classification of arterial highway No. 60A to a primary highway, it was decided.

In asking for the change, it will be pointed out that the highway is used almost exclusively by the unorganized territory of Harrison Hot Springs, and that as the provincial government receives large revenues from logging concerns on Harrison Lake, who use the road to transport equipment, the road should be under government care. Reeve Pretty and Councillors Hogg and Hamilton were appointed a delegation to interview the minister of public works and the minister of municipalities in Victoria on the question of river bank protection. F. Appel asked the council if they intended to raise the road ad joining his property. The road was impassable for three weeks last year due to seepage from the river, he said.

A complaint of indiscriminate cutting of cascara bark on private property in the municipality was made by C. Strong. As the council has no authority to issue permits to cut bark on private property, the co operation of people concerned in laying their complaints with the police was asked by the council. Library Meet Discusses Need Developments leading to the need of more suitable library accommodation will be discussed at a meeting called by the Chilliwack Library committee for Tuesday night. Representatives of 39 organizations make up the committee.

The problem of better accommodation for the library has come before both city and township councils in recent weeks. A change in library hours to provide service to the public during some morning hours will also be discussed. Cross Country Trip Cancelled A projected cross country flying trip to Vancouver today hasf been cancelled due to weather condi tions. The trip was planned at a meeting of the Chilliwack Crosscountry club held Monday in Brett's garage. Welcomed as new mei ibers were Russell Jesperson, Leo Edwards, Johnny Johnson and Earl Brett.

The Vancouver flight has been postponed until the first Wednesday the airport is in condition. Five members of the Flying club who recently passed these tests for private licenses were invited to attend as they are automatically eligible for membership. J. Johnson gave an illustrated lecture on navigation. Ron Wells, chief flying instructor, outlined procedure for forced landings and Harvey Webb and Ross Orr reported on their December 1 crosscountry flight to Kamloops and Merritt.

Jerry Pringle showed the club motion pictures of some of his airplane travels including Ohio, Edmonton Chilliwack flight, local shots and of the first unofficial club trip to Seattle. An interesting problem covering all phases of cross country flying was worked out by the group, each member having a particular job of flight planning, weather reporting, navigation, immigration, customs, and club report. The club is making arrangements to play host to participants in a cross country flight from Burlington, which will be made when weather conditions are Visitor Dealt Perfect "29" Crib Hand The crib player's dream, a per fect turned up again in Chilliwack Friday.

Paying Plans May Delay Road Opening There is a possibility the government will decide to carry out paving work on the Hope Princeton highway next year, Public Works Minister E.

C. Carson said Monday. "In this case," he said, "opening of the new highway would be delayed until the paving has been laid." Mr. Carson denied reports that errors in location on the Hope Princeton highway will delay completion of the road. "There have been minor changes," he said, "but these are routine in any major construction of this nature." "It is impossible for engineers to go into heavily lumbered country and lay down a new road with absolute precision.

On the Hope Princeton the engineers have made minor. changes as the ground was cleared bv contractors." OPEN IN 1948 Companies at work on the high way have contracted to complete it by September. The minister ex plained shortage in equipment and labor have caused some delay, and the work may not be finished until late in the year. It would be unwise, he said, to attempt to keep the new road open through the first winter, and the opening would be postponed until 1948. The weather has not affected the picking up of milk from dairymen according to FVMPA officials.

Trucks have been running about two hours late on the icy roads but all runs have been completed. Coming Events Fri Jan. 16, 17, 18: "Spellbound." Strand. Saturday, Jan. 18: Basketball, Agricultural Hall.
