PACIFIC COAST R.R. CALLED STRATEGIC LINK TO ARCTIC

VANCOUVER, B. C. CUP)-The , Pacific Great Eastern Railroad is a white elephant. It has cost the British Columbia taxpayers near ly $lOO,0O0,00O since 1t was born in 1912.
 However, the 345-mile railroad connecting Vancouver with Ques- nel, B. C. may become one of great strategic interest in the Pa cific Northwest.
 If present plans go through the PGE may become a vital land link between Seattle and Alaska. It would shorten by 1000 miles the Alcan overland route between Washington State and Alaska. The event which has brought the PGE into the forefront of in- terest is discovery of large depos- it's of anthracite coal at Prince George, a $5 bus ride from Ques- nel.
 Deposits Called Large
 Provincial mining officials say the extent of the deposits may be judged from estimates that hey will be able to provide 100000 tons of coal annually for an un- specified number of years.
 Negotiations are now nearing the final stage between the Brit ish Columbia and Canadian fed eral governments for extending the PGE into the coal area.
 That means running the rail road nearer to Alaska. The Paci- fife Northwest wants railway through to Alaska The British Columbia government has had nibbles from American interests to make use of the PGE as part of a connection with Fairbanks Alaska.
 Officials said if the PGE was extended to Prince George it would provide American interests with a suitable starting point for the Alaskan extension-running along the so-called Rocky Mount ain Trench up through the North west Territory, the Yukon and into Alaska
 U. S. Interested
 American interests headed by the Canadian American Railroad Development Company, incorpor- ated in Deleaware two years ago reportedly have put forth S200,- 100000 development plan for the extension of the PGE.
 Sen. Warren G. Magnuson, D., Wash, has said the U. S. War De- partment has authorized him to express fits entire willingness to- ward construction of such rail- road"
 If the Price George link goes through, however, it will be a boon to the Pacific Northwest. It will make it possible for trucks leave Seattle for Vancouver, be hauled by rail to Prince George and from there speed along the Little Alaska Highway" to be opened to traffic this year to Dawson Creek. on the Alcan, and

Hollywood may very well be the

even the remotest resemblance to
life as it is lived in the night clubs
The prime example of this cine
matte aloofness from reality can be
seen in any motion picture wherein
somebody orders a drink. In the
movie romances the middle-aged
two seeking to recapture their lost
youth order a bottle of pink cham
payne at the old roadhouse; the
waiter dampens the bottoms of the

Hollywood does not do right by

In the movies the cabaret bosses
never worry about business and are
either gangsters, gamblers or fel-
lows who hire singers only because
they covet them. It is fact that
the singers in night clubs usually
are sweet young things who want
to be actresses, treat their bosses
as paternal advisors and are too
innocent to be very interesting in
the roles for. which their motion

being cast.
