Mr. Clinton reports the meeting as very enthusiastic and considerable business being transacted, those\nof most Importance to this district\ndealing with the question ot comple-\ntion of the Headquarters road, a better\nfreight service for Cumberland and the\nparalyzing effect of the 40 per cent increase in freight rates, particularly as\nlt affects the lumber industry of Vancouver Island.\nMr. Clinton made strong representations to the meeting on the urgent\nneed of the government completing the\nroad leading from Bevan to Headquarters, pointing out that only four and\na half miles of new road was needed\nto complete this. Along this line he\nstrongly advocated the classification\nof the road from Royston to Cumberland and from Cumberland to Bevan,\nPuntledge, Headquarters and Mervllle\nas a \"primary\" highway, thus giving\na first-class road through all these\ndistricts and connecting with the Island Highway at Mervllle and on to\nCampbell River.
