PROVINCE OF BRITISH COLUMBIA ANNUAL EEPORT OF THE LANDS AND SURVEY BRANCHES DEPAETMENT OF LANDS YEAR ENDED DECEMBER 31 ST, 1932 HON. N. S. LOUGHEED, MINISTER OF LANDS PRINTED BY AUTHORITY 01? THE LEGISLATIVE ASSEMBLY. VICTORIA, B.C. : Printed by Chahles P. Banfield, Printer to the King's Most Excellent Majesty. 1933. Victoria, B.C., February 3rd, 1933. To His Honour John William Pordham Johnson, Lieutenant-Governor of the Province of British Columbia. May it please Your Honour : Herewith I beg respectfully to submit the Annual Report of the Lands and Survey Branches of the Department of Lands for the year ended December 31st, 1932. N. S. LOUGHEED, Minister of Lands. Victoria, B.C., February 3rd, 1933. The Honourable N. S. Lougheed, Minister of Lands, Victoria, B.C. Sir,—I have the honour to submit the Annual Report of the Lands and Survey Branches of the Department of Lands for the twelve months ended December 31st, 1932.

Victoria, B.C., February 1st, 1933. H. Catheart, Esq., Deputy Minister of Lands, Victoria, B.C. Sir,—I have the honour to submit herewith statements containing details of land administration by the Lands Branch of the Department of Lands during the year ended December 31st, 1932. From a comparison with the figures accompanying my last report, it will be seen that, with few exceptions, all items of revenue-producing business show the continued downward trend to be expected in sympathy with present conditions of private business. The increase in correspondence, while showing an interest in our resources fully maintained, would under normal conditions indicate a corresponding increase in general business, but the heavier staff-work entailed evidently did not result in the usual percentage of completed sales, etc. For the fifth consecutive year, it will be noted that sales of reverted acreage are in excess of those of similar nature under the " Land Act." Closing of Peace River Land Recording District, including the Peace River Block, in May last to pre-emption entry has, of course, had a diminishing effect on the total entries for the year, and the improved control legislation of last session with regard to administration of coal, petroleum, and natural gas has had a similar, but expected only temporary, effect on our records covering these items. The policy of examining and appraising lands reverted to the Crown for non-payment of taxes was continued during the past year, and, according to the interim report, details of 633 parcels comprising 95,000 acres in Lillooet District will shortly be available, in addition to the 3,200 parcels within easy reach of Vancouver, and 150,000 acres in the vicinity of Prince George and along the line of the Canadian Northern Railway previously appraised and now for sale on favourable terms. Measures inaugurated during the past year for grazing control and adjustment of lease rentals have met with widespread approval, and while no increase in revenue to the Crown is anticipated for the present, the settlement of long-outstanding matters pertaining to the business of sheep and cattle raising will be of permanent benefit to the industry. I have, etc., NEWMAN TAYLOR, Superintendent of Lands. STATEMENT OF REVENUE, YEAR ENDING DECEMBER 31st, 1932. Land-sales. Victoria. Agencies.

Victoria, B.C., January 14th, 1933. H. Cathcart, Esq., Deputy Minister of Lands, Victoria, B.C. Sir,—I have the honour to submit the following report on the operations of the Survey Branch for the year ended December 31 st, 1932 :— The continued fall in Provincial revenues due to the world-wide economic situation was reflected in the 1932 appropriation for surveys, which was the lowest in over twenty-five years. On this account, work was restricted to the most urgent items, and projects of great economic promise had to be postponed. The field-work of the Survey Branch may be divided into three main classes: (1) Tri- angulation, this being the best and cheapest means of determining the true positions of main features; (2) topographical surveys, now mostly carried on with the aid of aerial photography, with ground control supplied by minor triangulation and the surveying-camera; (3) cadastral surveys, in preparation for settlement. Theoretically, surveys should be made in the above order, but this is not always practicable; and, furthermore, democracies are notoriously shortsighted. Twenty years of well-planned effort has brought the triangulation nets of the main scheme so near to completion that a total of about $30,000 further expenditure, spread over three years, would close the gaps, and little more would need to be done for many years. Except in the Peace River Block, cadastral surveys are generally well in advance of preemptions, and there are no extensive areas where further surveys would induce early settlement. The topographical surveys, on the other hand, should be steadily continued. -British Columbia has wasted many millions of dollars on projects which, it is safe to say, would never have been undertaken had there been complete advance knowledge of resources and traffic possibilities. For example, no major illusions are possible with respect to the country south of the Railway Belt and west of the Arrow Lake Divide, so completely covered and mapped by our photo-topographical survey; but many illusions, dangerous to the public treasury, do exist in the minds of the public, and possibly in some official minds, respecting other parts of the Province. If British Columbia is to develop on sane lines and is to avoid further costly errors like those referred to, the first necessity would seem to be an inventory of Provincial resources. The owner of a farm goes over his land before deciding where to concentrate his efforts, and the Province should do the same; but, as the area is so great, the only practicable way to present the facts is in the form of maps or in reports illustrated by maps. Altitude and slopes place definite limits to our agricultural areas; geological formations govern the occurrence of the various minerals; watershed areas and the drop therefrom limit power; while the potentialities of our forests are closely bound up with latitude, altitude, slopes, and drainage. Altitude and slope have a far more important bearing on economic development here than in any other Province of Canada, and maps without contour-lines tell only half the story. In nineteen years of experience and experiment, British Columbia has built up a small group of specialists in photo-topographical surveying, and now, with the co-operation of the Royal Canadian Air Force and the Topographical Survey of Canada, can make the necessary ground surveys and produce reliable topographical maps showing 100-foot contours, at a cost to the Province under $20 per square mile. With such maps, and the aerial and ground photographs on file, engineers of the Public Works Department could study alternative road and trail routes, and, with the aid of the stereoscope, work out approximate costs without leaving their office. Likewise, the accomplishments of the Geological Survey field men could be doubled and the work of our own Forest and Water Branches greatly facilitated. There are many other advantages both to the Government and to the people, and the cost is less than one-fifteenth of that of an ordinary ground survey. V 16 REPORT OF MINISTER OF LANDS, 1932. All projects recommended by the Survey Branch must pass the following tests: (1.) In the case of triangulation surveys, " Is this work necessary to supply a stable base for our maps of regions now under development, or with development imminent ?" (2.) In the case of topographical surveys, " Is this an area where complete information, with contours and photographs, is likely to aid early development of mineral, agricultural, timber, or power resources to an extent justifying this expenditure ? " (3.) In the case of cadastral surveys, " Is this land suited in quality and location for successful settlement, and is it likely to be taken up in the very near future ? " All such surveys have incidental scientific value, but it is recognized that British Columbia, with its great area and small population, must make early and substantial economic value the test of its projects for many years to come. The Cariboo placer area and Northerly Vancouver Island topographical mapping, now halted or retarded, are projects which will meet every test. This is shown by the recent Geological Survey remarks regarding gold prospects on Zeballos River, west coast of Vancouver Island, which our mapping programme induced them to examine, and also by recent developments in the Barkerville area. The Survey Branch has been urging an appropriation for the completion of the contour-mapping of the Quesnel-Barkerville area for three years, with the object of aiding in the search for ancient gold-bearing channels, etc. In order that all the services above mentioned may do their important work to the very best advantage, it is necessary that topographical mapping be at least one year ahead of them, and this calls for continuity of policy. The remaining triangulation and all topographical mapping of the quality advocated, if once done, would be done for ever, and British Columbia, being a young and rapidly developing country, must crowd an undue part of such work into a few years. Expenditure on this basic and permanent work could rightly be classed as capital expenditure and financed out of loans, as is done in other countries, thus easing the unfair load on current revenues. I am convinced, by observation and by the results secured, that in our photo-topographical staff we have an efficient working field force unsurpassed anywhere. They are giving us the best maps we have ever had at much the lowest cost yet reached in this difficult country. It costs about $36,000 per year to keep them and their survey crews working at full efficiency, but for this, assuming the continuation of the present co-operation of the Royal Canadian Air Force, we can add 2,000 square miles per annum to our contoured mapped areas and can do the work wherever the need is most urgent. It would be true economy to expand this type of work rather than to curtail it, even in the face of present financial difficulties. SURVEY REVENUE. From the very nature of the work there can be no direct revenue collections in connection with triangulation and topographical surveys. In the case of cadastral surveys a survey fee is collected on lands sold, but in very many cases this is merged with the land price and so does not show in the Public Accounts. Under the " Land Act," surveys of their lands are donated to pre-emptors. Since 1911 the revenue from survey fees, shown as such, has exceeded $237,000, while in the same period surveys to the value of over $893,000 were given to pre-emptors. The corresponding figures for 1932 are: Survey fees collected, $2,217; and cost of surveys donated to the 1,202 new pre-emptors, approximately $96,000. Expenditure in 1932 on all types of surveys was under $15,000. GENERAL REVIEW OF FIELD-WORK. No work was done on the triangulation nets. At the " Green Timbers," near New Westminster, a subdivision of 800 acres of logged-off lands into 5- and 10-acre lots was carried out by Walter Wilkie, B.C.L.S. Other than this, Government land-survey activities were confined to a few scattered lots and land-ties and a few minor subdivisions. The photo-topographical staff were all on short time, and their field-work was confined to the completion of some unfinished map-sheets on Northerly Vancouver Island. This field-work was in charge of A. J. Campbell, B.C.L.S., with G. J. .Tackson, B.C.L.S., in charge of an assisting party. Their detailed reports follow, and in his, Mr. Campbell describes the methods followed. REPORT OF THE SURVEYOR-GENERAL. V 17 OFFICE-WORK. The office staff is divided into two main sections—namely, the Survey Division and the Geographic Division. Reports compiled by F. O. Morris and by G. G. Aitken, who are respectively in charge of these Divisions, follow. During the year, one member of the photo-topographical staff resigned when put on very short time, one draughtsman was superannuated, while the two most recent appointees to the draughting staff were dismissed, for reasons of economy only. No new appointments were made. I have the honour to be, Sir, Your obedient servant, F. C. GREEN, Surveyor-General. V 18 REPORT OF MINISTER OF LANDS, 1932. APPENDIX TO REPORT OF SURVEYOR-GENERAL. SURVEY DIVISION. This Division deals with the general correspondence, supplying survey information, the preparation of instructions for surveying, examining field returns, and plotting official plans, compiling departmental reference maps, clearing all applications, and other incidental work. During the past year 232 field-books were received, containing notes for 338 lots, and including thirteen books containing notes of traverses and triangulation control surveys made for the most part in 1931. The number of lots plotted and gazetted numbers 609; tracings of the plans of these lots were prepared and forwarded to the various Land Commissioners. Numerous surveys covering portions of reverted lands held under application were dealt with by this Division, as well as several subdivisions of Crown lands into small parcels. Miscellaneous tracings made total 95, while 821 tracings were made in duplicate for leases and Crown grants. A schedule of the various kinds of surveys examined, plotted, and gazetted during 1932 follows:— Acres, Purchase surveys 2,268 Mineral-claim surveys 2,520 Coal-licence surveys 1,288 Lease surveys 896 Government surveys 57,940 Total 64,912 Right-of-way Plans.—Plans of rights-of-way through Crown lands for railways, logging- railways, and power-transmission lines are examined and dealt with by this Division in connection with the applications of the companies for Crown grants or leases as may be required. Information supplied.—A charge to cover cost is made for the preparation of copies of field-notes, blue-prints, etc., required by surveyors, officials of other departments, and the general public. The total number of prints made was 21,380, valued at $7,121.73. Correspondence and Accounts.—During the year the Braneh received 5,807 letters and sent out 5,070, not including form letters and interdepartmental memoranda. Clearances.—During the year the Survey Division supplied to the Lands, Forest, and Water Branches clearances of their various applications. A graphical record is kept of all these clearances on the maps of the Branch. In many instances it is necessary in the clearing of a single application to connect numerous departmental records in order to ascertain that no other interests are affected. In addition, a check-up and revision of the list of the various Indian reserves was carried out. There are some 1,221 of these reserves throughout the Province, not including those in the former Dominion Railway Belt. An indication of the work involved in dealing with various matters covered by the work of this Branch is given by the number of plans and field-notes consulted. During the past year there were received from the vault for reference, and returned for filing, 28,558 documents of this description. Tables A and B attached hereto give a summary of the office-work and acreage dealt with by the Survey Division. Departmental Reference Maps.—In order to keep a proper graphic record of alienations and inquiries, reference maps, generally on the scale of 1 mile to 1 inch, and mineral reference maps on the scale of 1,500 feet to 1 inch, drawn on tracing-linen, are maintained by the Survey Division. There are now 177 reference maps and 59 mineral reference maps, making a total of 236 maps. The work of keeping these up to date—(1) by adding new survey information as it becomes available, and (2) by renewing same when worn out with constant use and handling in the blue-print machines—forms a considerable portion of the work of the Branch. During the year seven entirely new reference maps and five new mineral reference maps were prepared, while eight existing maps were redrawn. Tables C and D, attached hereto, give a list of these reference maps. APPENDIX TO REPORT OF SURVEYOR-GENERAL. V 19 Table A.—Summary of Office-work for the Year 1932, Survey Division.

The registration of plans under a " quadrilateral" system which was inaugurated by this Department a few years ago has proved beyond a doubt to be the ideal system for the indexing of plans. Under this system all information relating to any part of the country can be located (without the possibility of any important data being overlooked) in the shortest possible time. Gazetteer. During the year a great number of revisions to the place-names of British Columbia and their locations were necessary through the receipt of new topographical and hydrographic surveys. In addition, about 950 new place-name cards were added to the card index. Geographical Work done for other Departments. Eleven orders (Provincial), with total cost, charged and received, .$383.19. Twenty-five orders (Provincial), co-operative, not charged, value $3,717.42. The establishing of permanent statistical publication areas in British Columbia for Dominion and Provincial administration requirements was advanced materially during the year by our work of preparing the necessary detailed descriptions of boundaries. Map-mounting. The following is a synopsis of the work accomplished in map-mounting for the year 1932:— Loose-leaf map-books—mounted maps in rexine covers 151 White, blue, and ozalid prints, joined and mounted, etc 1,426 Maps joined, mounted, and cut to fold, pocket size 462 Photostat prints fitted, joined, and mounted, etc 195 Official maps and charts repaired, mounted, etc 389 Field-books and miscellaneous books repaired, bound, etc 16 Photos, pictures, sketches, and painting mounted 168 Maps reinforced to hang with sticks 65 Work done, Receipts and Credits.

The South Vancouver Island sheets are being specially prepared in collaboration with the Department of National Defence and the Dominion Topographical Surveys Branch, Ottawa. The equivalent of one man's time for approximately three months was spent in writing and checking descriptions for Dominion and Provincial Electoral Districts, Polling Divisions, etc. Control nets were supplied as follows:— Geographic Printed Maps. Departmental Reference Maps, etc. North Thompson Pre-emptors' Map. Surveys Branch Reference Maps Nos. 6, 6b, 21, 21a, 38c, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96. Mineral Reference Maps. Forest Branch Departmental Maps. Water Rights Branch Departmental Maps. Hydrographic Survey of Canada. Geological Survey of Canada. Photo-topographical Surveys of A. J. Campbell and G. J. Jackson, B.C.L.S. Triangulation Computation and Adjustment. Least-square adjustments of the following triangulation control surveys were made during the year:— A. J. Campbell, B.C.L.S., season 1932, vicinity of Victoria Peak, Vancouver Island. G. J. Jackson, B.C.L.S., season 1932, vicinity of Victoria Peak, Vancouver Island. R. D. McCaw, B.C.L.S., season 1928, vicinity of Upper Arrow Lake. F. S. Clements, B.C.L.S., season 1929, vicinity of Upper Arrow Lake. E. R. Foster, B.C.L.S., season 1931, vicinity of Upper Skeena River. F. C. Swannell, B.C.L.S., season 1931, vicinity of Kitchener Lake. N. C. Stewart, B.C.L.S., season 1931, vicinity of Hydraulic. The above necessitated the adjustment of 242 triangles and 264 calculations for latitude, longitude, distance, azimuth, and reverse azimuth. In addition, the geographical positions of 80 secondary stations were computed. A start has been made to compile an alphabetical card-index system for triangulation stations ; for each station, a card to be made out giving the following information: Name, quad, index, locality, source, description, latitude and longitude, elevation, ties to cadastral surveys, file number, field-book and plan references. At the close of the year, 185 of these cards had been written, there being in all 2,039 triangulation stations entered in the registers. \ GEOGRAPHIC DIVISION. eographic Division deals with the compilation and drawing of maps for lithographic the preparation of standard base maps and the calculations incidental thereto, adjustment, the distribution of maps, and all photostat and map-mounting work; and records of the Province.

Considerable staff time was employed to fulfil the requests of the " Economy Committee " for tables, display records, graphs, political boundaries, maps, etc. Subsequent to the 1932 Electoral Redistribution, considerable time was employed in preparing drafts of suggestions for a further Provincial Electoral Redistribution. Geographical Naming.
