'Huascaran. BITRACTS FROM THR ANNUAL ADDRESS By W. M. Neal, C.B.E,, Chairman and President of C.P.R. Trade and commerce, based on world | wide law and order, have not been re- established on a foundation of mutual trust and goodwill as rapidly as: was hoped, at the conclusion of the world conflict in arms. Our world is not at peace in the broadly accepted sense of that term. Gravely disturbed eco- nomic conditions in Europe and in other parts of the world are reflected in rapidly changing conditions on the p North American continent. These are the basic facts in which a review of progress during. 1947 must be con- sidered. | That Canada, more dependent than most nations on external commerce, has by no means escaped is daily be- coming more evident, and problems, stemming from world conditions, must be adequately dealt with and solved. There is, however, a basic general ap- preciation of the fact that our pros- perity depends upon the efforts of all the people working in unity toward the common good. This spirit, if strengthened and carried into - the future, will go far toward developing our country on the scale its resources and geographical location demand. The Canadian Pacific is an integral part of the Canadian economy. Tra- ditionally the railway of Confedera- tion, it has grown with Canada and has made, and will continue to make, important contributions to the welfare of the nation. I would be unfair to my trust if [I did not bring out these vital in- fluences upon the course which Canada is plotting for the future and upon her ultimate success, particularly in the light of -the more favored position of our friendly but very active competit- ors in the railway business in the great nation to the south, A survey of company achievements during 1947 must be made.in the light of planned progress for 1948; and later years, Among the most important of recent Governmental actions must be rated the preliminary steps taken to develop a flow of suitable immigra- tion into Canada. These measures are of vital importance to Canadian producers, gravely handicapped by manpower shortage and, perhaps even more important, in the light of the urgent need of developing the vast potential wealth in the Northern part of our country. In this development the Canadian Pacific will, through the operation of its steamships, rail- ways and airlines, together with its long established organizations for the encouragement of industry and agri- cultural settlement, take a full part. The company, as a major step, has purchased the former German liner, The conversion of this ship, to enable her to carry eight hun- dred immigrants to this country each trip, will be of material assistance in casing the immigration bottleneck. The Huascaran, renamed the Beaver- brae, will be in service early in the new year, This is, of course, part of the com- pany's policy of re-establishing its position as a major operator of ocean steamships. : DOMINION OF CANADA BONDS Ottawa. Graham Towers, Governor of the Bank of Canada, announced that the Bank has discontinued the practice of quoting daily prices on Dominion of Canada bonds. The pro- cedure of making available to banks and dealers a daily list of quotations at which the Bank was prepared, sub- tt |-the-wife of -the-late-Justice Davis of Hect--to-- confirmation, --to--buy or--selt} Dominion of Canada bonds had .been followed throughout the war years. It was pointed out that the change constituted a return to procedure fol- lowed by the Bank prior to the war, and that the Bank will continue to be both buyer and a seller in the market in response to firm bids or offerings from dealers or banks, SEAWEED TO BE FURTHER EXPLOITED ~The Scottish Seaweed Research As- sociation, which *has already done much for the scientific and economic exploitation of seaweed, has now opened its new. headquarters at In- veresk Gate, Musselburgh. sent inquiries are directed to discover the food value and digestibility of sea- weed as fodder for sheep, pigs and poultry. In addition, further "use is to be made of seaweed as a fertilizer. It is believed that seaweed from Scot- tish coasts could yield chemicals worth £16 millions a year, GOOD WAY / 1 like the oné about the man who was doing a Home Guafd test. .
