In an announcement which Mr. •McLean made on behalf of the party at a luncheon tendered in their honor in Prince George by the Board of Trade of' the northern city-, he stated that provided satisfactory arrangements could be made with the government in regard to the acquiring .of ,suitable power sites and extensive timber leases so as to assure a continuity of supply on a large scale, the neW syndicate Tvas prepared to, spend in the neighborhood of $6,000,000 in the establishment of a power plant with a capacity ,of at least . 50.000 horsepower, a sawmill and a huge pulp and paper mill in the .vicinity" of Prince George. Just which one of three hydraulic sites in the vicinity of Prince George would be ultimately chosen depended on further investigation by their engineers. • The plant would be, a big one, Mr. McLean assured the Prince George citizens, and would cover about 200 acres of ground and employ fully 1,000 men in the bush , and various industries in connection with the mill. It was planned to" manufacture all kinds of paper, from the fine varieties of note paper, down through the list to .newsprint, including the much-used "kraft',; wrapping, and mercantile paper. The only difficulty facing the establishment of the enterprise so far is that certain modifications will be required in the B. C. Forest Act, so as to enable the syndicate to secure an amplitude of supply of pulp wood of the various kinds to assure them of continuous operation for the next ten years or so.'on the mammoth sca'le on which they plan to supply not only much of the Canadian and American but also foreign -markets.^ . First announcement on the lower mainland of this huge enterprise was made over a month ago in the B. C. Record, which on that occasion gave full details of the scheme and the personnel of the noted financiers avdo are behind the venture, and which includes some prominent British capitalists headed by Lord Beaverbrook.
