C, board of trade which may result in the entire city of Vancouver and the whole of the pe ninsula, including the municipalities of Point Grey. South Vancouver, Bur naby iind Coquitlam being included In a free port area for foreign trade pu rpocses. The scheme as outlined at present would mean the placing of nearly 100 square miles under a free port re cline with no import tariff and would put living in Vancouver at a mini mum, it said. All manufacturers within the port at present would be able to import their raw materials free and the do minion of Canada as a whole woul bo benefited by the increased indus trial development and the possibili ties of buying at home all manufac tured articles which now bear foreign commissions and import duties in ad dition to the original cost of the commodity. The idea of some of the members of the committee is to make the wa ter front from Port Moody to Burrard inlet around to Xew Westminster on the Fraser river one row of industries under the big Bcheme of a free port of Vancouver.

Robert B. Allen of Seattle, seere- arv of the association, and J. N. Teal or this citv recently left for Wash- neton to consult with members ol congress and officials of the railroad administration in an effort to obtain relief from this apparent discrimina- on against the greatest industry of Oresron and Washing-ton. A wire re celved by the association from Mr. Allen at Chicago is given in part as follows: In view of possible early changes n financial and economic conditions throughout the country, mills again re cautioned eerainst oiling up hign- cost stoclt3 in anticipation of early liquidation through increased car UDDlV. "Several weeks ago the United States railroad administration an nounced eastern roads would daily deliver 975 Cars to western lines, through Chicago, of which 500 a day would be turned over to the north western region. Instead of 675 cars this movement for a few days aver aged 152 cars, and has since been dropping fast until yesterday only two of the 975 cars were delivered through Chicago."
