"We would like to express our appreciation of the efforti put forwird on our behalf by our local member, R. R. Burns. He arranged our appointment lor us, and attended the meeting with Mr. Hart iri joined in the deliberations whenever he thought he could help our case. In fact It was largely through his efforts that we were able to secure iuch good resulU." BRIEF ' The brief lubmitted wai U follows: "The Rosaland-TYall District Cooperative Council, composed of the representatives of the organized cooperative societies of the following communities within the district: Rossland Cooperative Transportation Society, 630 members; Kootenay Consumers Cooperative Association of Trail, 1200 members; War- field Cooperative Transportation Society, SO memben; Frultvile Cooperative Traniportitlon Society, 189 memben; castlegar Cooperative Transportation Society of Castlegar, 100 memben; Coronation Cooperative Transportation Society, ot Castlegar, 86 members; and Security Cooperative Association of Casino, 18 memben; beg leave to submit for your ernest consideration the following memorandum: Within the past 10 or more yein the induitrlil plants of the Consolidated Mining It Smelting Company of Canada, situated at Trail, has been constantly expanding, and consequently lncreulng the number of workmen ln its employ. This increase in the working force has Uxed to the limit the facilities for home-building within, the environs of the City of Trail, which, 'owing to topographical conditions,-could not provide adequate building sites for all the employees engaged it the plmt at ihe present time. Then too, many ot the employees, due to the nature of their employment, prefer to establish their home some mllei out In the country, where ,they can' devote their ipare time to gardening, etc., and bring up their fimilies free from the worries of city traffic and other hazards, Thui, co-Incident with the expansion of the Trail plant, we find the communities of Rossland, Castlegar, Fruitvale, Annable, Casino, and other smaller centres also experiencing a period of growth and expansion. R08SLAND BLAZED WAY "One of the first essentials to the continued existence of these smaller communities wu the establishment of ■ method of transporting the employeei living in the md communities to tnd from their place ot employment at Trail. Railroad locations tnd schedules did not provide the answer. Bus companies tried to supply the service, but could not provide a cheap enough rate to make It possible . , . obviously a working man can only afford up to a certain percentage of his wages for this kind of service ... to that iome other way out had to be found. The men residing in RossUnd thought they had tound thi answer when, in 1982, they organized the Rossland Co-Operative Transportation Society, by means of which It wu proposed that the workmen themselves own and operate their own system for transporting themaelves to md from their place of employment at Trail. It was proposed thtt auto- mobile! be bought tnd used for thli one ipecific purpoie ind the workmen contribute lufficient fundi dty by diy to operate them tnd to pty the orlginil cost of them. It more thtn sufficient funds by thii voluntary assessment wis collected over t period ot tlmt, it wis proposed thit the surplus be refunded to the membra In proportion to the imount eich bid paid In during thli period. In order thtt GIFT LINGERIE FOR VOUR LADY £ditk fl. CoAAolhU-h. 498 B3ker SL Phont 970 o£$*&-?*mi$m&w^m>^^ these principles be given legal statue, md to tet as a guarantee to the workmen participating In •the icheme, it was necesary to become organized under the Cooperative Allocations AcL .... OTHERS FOLLOWED n" **Thus wu the first cooperative transportation lociety launched and it quickly proved to be the most successful method yet devised ot providing a cheap ind reliable meani of transporting members to ■nd from their place of employment. Other communities soon adopted the same scheme, md as a result Fruitvale, Casino, and Castlegar each' have their own transportation societies, md lince so doing, each community hu grown rapidly. There is also one transportation society operating between Trail and the Fertilizer PUnt at Wirfleld. "Each df these societies has been organizing with but one object ln view, the most economical, means of transporting iti memberi to md from work, tnd tht can are bought and used^ solely for thli purpose.
