MacLean‘s Magazine has just come out with an article entitled:â€""Wanted: A Transâ€"Canada Highway", "A Canaâ€" dian should be able to motor from coast to coast in his own country." In the Canadian Motorist, last Novâ€" ember, the leading article was headed: "Motorists‘ Parliament of Canada Deéeâ€" mands Completion of Transâ€"Canada Highway in Five Years". The article related to the Sixteenth Annual general meeting of the Canadian Automobile Association held at Quebec in Septemâ€" ber last. The linking up of these important cdads and ends of roadways between Winnipeg and Nipigon, a task that can be rapidly accomnlished, if attacked with some energy, will then reduce conâ€" siderably, if not by one half, the 600 mile void from Winnipeg eastwards, mentioned recently in the House of Commons during the debate on the From Port Arthur, one can motor to Camp Alexander about 12 miles north of Nipigon, which itself is about 75 miles east of Port Arthur. From Camp Alexander to Orient Bay on Lake Nipiâ€" gon, the distance is 20 miles or so, and this road is not yet completed. The only gap in the Transâ€"Canada Highway at the close of the current vyear will be in the central province of Ontario. Canadian Motorist has chamâ€" pioned the Transâ€"Canada Highway frem the time . _of its conception One of the most vigorous protagonists of the completion of the Transâ€"Canada Highway through Ontario‘s great hinâ€" terland as expeditiously as possible, Canadian Motorist has been and is a nonâ€"partison in the controversy regardâ€" ing the relative merits and demerits of the two proposed routes there for the ‘Nation‘s Main Street." Both have adâ€" vantages ard doubtless in time motorâ€" ists will have the alternative of driving between the Twin Ports and North Bay via Sault Ste. Marie or via Cochrane. The following article is an able preâ€" sentaticn of the case for the northern route by the Secretary of the Cochrane of Commerce. The scenic adâ€" vantages of the southern route via Sault Ste. Marie and the North Shore of Lake Superior will be described in There remains one considerable blank space on the automobile road map of Canada, and that is in Northern Onâ€" trio. This gap in the Transâ€"Canada Highway reaches from Hearst at the North, or Sault Ste. Marie at the South (of Northern Ontario) to Manitoba‘s Eastern boundary, with a few stretches of roadâ€"way already built between Hyâ€" dro and Stewart, through Port Arthur; Dryden and Vermilion Bay; Kenora and Clear Water Bay, as shown on the accompanying map. Then going towards Port Arthur, it is reported that the road is cut from Saâ€" vanne, on the C.P.R. to Stewart or thereabouts, on the road from Port Arthur to Kashabowie. Recent press despatches from Winniâ€" peg contain the assurance that the Winnipeg to Kenora portion of the highway, some 84 miles, will be comâ€" pleted this year. There are 30 miles of road from Kenora southâ€"east toâ€" wards Fort Frances and it is suggested that the Transâ€"Canada Highway conâ€" nect with this road 15 or 20 miles from Kenora and link up, at Vermilion Bay, with the road built from Vermilion Bay to Dyment, over 50 miles southâ€"east. Still farther southâ€"east, in the Keâ€" nora District, there are 5 miles of road at Ignace. In view of the great interest at preâ€" sent taken in the matter of the Transâ€" Canada highway in this North Land, the following article by J. Agapit Clerâ€" mont in The Canadian Motorist for May, 1930, should be read with much attention by all. The article is headâ€" ed:â€""Ontario‘s Gap, the Last in the Transâ€"Canada Highway, Can be Comâ€" pleted in Three Years," and Mr. Clerâ€" mont writes as follows, a note by the editor of The Canadian Motorist being prefixed ;:â€" Writer in The Canadian Motorist Urges Hearst to Orient Bay Road be Built to Complete Transâ€"Canada Route. Lake Superior Route Too Costly to Construct. Hearstâ€" Orient Bay Route Presents Greater Possibilities From All Standpoints. Favours Ferguson Highway For the Transâ€"Canada Route D. SUTHERLAND, Manager C. A. KEHOE, Manager i The nature of the terrain is also all ‘to the advantage of the more northern route which practically follows the | height of land and is fairly level, while the shore of Lake Superior is so rugged and hilly than any practical highway would have to go so far inland as to be away from the lake itself and from the railway and therefore lose most of the attractiveness and safety that a }lake shore route would ordinarily comâ€" mand. It is a known fact that the portion of the Canadian Pacific Railway skirtâ€" ing Lake Superior is the most expensive bit of railroading per mile in America, while the cld Canadian Northern right of way to the north followed the height of land and was one of the easiest built roadâ€"beds East of Winnipeg. The difference between blasting through mountains, filling up canyons, bridging chasms and torrents, crossing the wide mouths of rivers along the unâ€" inhabited anrd untillable rockâ€"strewn vastness. of Lake Superior‘s shore, and cutting timber and grading on sandy loam and clay rolling soil on a height But it would be extremely costly and unwise to persist in a southward trend of highway construction from Nipigon on to Sault Ste. Marie at the presen;:l time, as the compietion of the Transâ€" ; Canada Highway would be delayed for . several years. The most urgent matter is to plan and execute the quickest linking up of Western and Eastern higshway system through Northern On-! tario and the solution lies in the sand : and clay soil on the height of land beâ€"| tween Orient Bay and Hearst and not| in the rocky hills of Lake Superior‘s| forbidding northern shore line. of land, where only the sources of streams are encountered, where there are already settlements and where a highway will open up wonderfully ferâ€" tile soil, is again all to the advantage of the Nipigon to Hearst route. as the southern shore of this lake is in the United States; then the shortest, most logical economical and practical location would be right across Northern Ontario, north of Lape Nipigon to the Quebsc boundary, via Nakina, Hearst and Cochrane in order to link up with Quebec‘s system of roadways in its Abitibi region. But as temporary expedient and owing to the fact that NMNorthern Ontario is as yet sparsely populated, it is presently more practiâ€" cal to follow the lines of population and to link up the existing stray ends of roads by dipping the route down Port Arthur and pass south of Lake Nipigon. This latter route could be more speedily laid out and built than the sault Ste. Marie to Port Arthur proâ€" ject, as the distance from Orient Bay to Hearst, via the important settlement of Nakina is 265 miles compared to about 500 miles for the other. The cost of constructing the Northern route would be far less, being on more level ground, and with a minimum of rock cuts, fills and bridges. The brunt of usefulness is also in favour Oof the Hearstâ€"Orient Bay scheme as it presents greater possibiliâ€" ties â€" from agriculutural, lumbering, hunting and fishing standpoints and would be more accessible to railways and cheaper to maintain. It is to the advantage of both motor and steam roads that they can be near each other, as one is the complement of the other. Canadian railroads have gained more in automobile business than they have lost through the comâ€" petition of automobiles and trucks, E. W. Beatty, President of the Canadian Pacific Railway, told the Ontario Good Roads Association in February. A glance at the. map of Canada shows Hearst and Cochrane in line with Halifax, Quebec, Winnipeg and Vancouver, and the ultimate Transâ€" Canada Highway will likely run from Halifax to Quebec, thence practically follow the Canadian National Railways line through : Northern Quebec and Northern Ontario right on to Winniâ€" ;)t;g -theme to Vancouver by the most direct and practical route. Of necessity, in order to be in Canâ€" ada this National Highway, entering Ontario at its western boundary, must be located north of Lake of the Woods, If speed, short distance, economy and usefulness are the factors relied upon to complete the highway, then there can be very little doubt that the roadâ€"building should be pushed on imâ€" mediately from both ends between Nipiâ€" gon and Hearst, while the Winnipeg to Port Arthur section is being linked uUp. The distance between Hearst and Nipigon is considerably shorter than that between Sault Ste. Marie and Nipigon, as any casual reference to a map will show. East of Nipigon comes the real proâ€" blem in the linking up of what can at least be a temporary Transâ€"Canada Highway. Should it go Northwards to Hearst, on to Cochrane and down the Ferguson Highway, or down around the North Shore of Lake Superior to Saulit Ste. Marie? In passing, it might be said that if the various Provinces will link up their highway system from Coast to Coast, then it is likely that Federal aid could be obtained towards straightening, shortening, altering, paving and mainâ€" taining what would then really amount to a National Highway. motion for Federal suubsidies towards the completion of the Transâ€"Canada Highway. THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO The only real gap in the Transâ€"Canâ€" ada Highway is in Northern Ontario and there is no insuperable obstacle to prevent its being closed within three years, if funds were released for the work. The Ontario authorities apparently feel that the burden of linking up the The road fromâ€"Cochrane to the Qusâ€" bec boundary already runs 18 miles east to Norembega, and it will not be a diffiâ€" cult problem to reach the Quebec bounâ€" dary. By extending the Ontario road sysâ€" tem westwards from Hearst to Nakina, another link would be completed in the logical road across Canada. The road from Nakina to Orient Bay and Port Arthur would later become a feeder to the National Highway, and Sault Ste. Marie could a‘so be linked up to Hearst as an important tourist feeder. country highway. An American visitor recently expressed the opinion that it would pay the Canadian National Railâ€" ways to build an automobile road along its right of way from coast to coast. @quebsec intends to link up its highway across the Abitibi district with Monâ€" treal by a motor road from Montâ€"Laurâ€" ier to Senneterre and eventually will run the Abitibi highway right on to Quebec City. From Quebec to Winnipeg the Naâ€" ticnal Transcontinental enginsers built the shortest and most level railroad via Cochrane and the same logic and common sense should apply to a cross ada as to retain in this country the tourists who are using it and should be laid out with a view of linkingâ€"up Haliâ€" fax to Vancouver. Moreover, the purpose of the Transâ€" Canada Highway would likely be deâ€" feated by running it through Sault Ste. Marie, as any motorist coming from the East would be tempted to cross the border and follow the‘ United States to the West. A road across Canada should run, sufficiently deep into Canâ€" of Lake Superior and that it was imâ€" possible to build a highway along the shore; that there was also a range of rocky hills due north of the Soo, and that an automobilée road from Sault Ste. Marie to Port Arthur would first have to go northeast from the Soo toâ€" wards Chapleau to get around the Agaâ€" wa range and from there on practically follow the old Canadian Northern Railâ€" way for some distance, to get away from the Lake Superior chain of mounâ€" tains. An engineer who worked on the C.P. R. construction around Lake Superior, who helped to build the Canadian Norâ€" thern from Sudbury to Port Arthur, and who knew the old National Transâ€" continental Railway‘s days, stated to the writer, three years ago, that there was a mountain range (as eastern mountains go) along the north shore THE NC W Every one who has driven the entirely new Willys Six agrees that it is Willysâ€"Overland‘s greatest manufacturing achieveâ€" ment...a triumph of value and versatility.

By means Cc> advertising messages, the safety, conâ€" venience, economy and healthfulness of cycling have been kept before the public, and these considerations have inffuenced more and more people to choose the bicycle as a means of easy, The advent of the automobile and its rapid rise in popularity, the "coming in" of the motorcycle and the "going out" of the horse, and the competition of new pastimes notwithstanding, the biâ€" cycle industry has gone steadily forâ€" ward in Canada. In confirming the statement that more/ bicycles were manufactured and marketed in Canada in 1929 than in any previous year, Canada Cycle Motor Company executives also point out that 1930 bicycleâ€" prices are the lowest for 30 years, despmite consistently improving quality season after season. In other words, price reduction has not been the cause of the growing popularity of the bicycle, but has been the result of this increase in the numâ€" ber of ‘"bikes" purchased in Canada. As output has grown from year to year to meet an ever increasing demand, production costs have been lowered and this saving has steadily cut down the price to the bicycle buyer. To the man on the street, who reâ€" members the time when "bikes" were "all the rage," it will probably come as surprising news that more bicycles were made and sold in Canada last year than in any preceding twelve months in the last quarter of a cenâ€" tury. More Bicycles in 1929 Than Any Year Since 1905 The revenue derived from tourists, who would flock to such scenic route, would amply repay the cost of comâ€" pleting the National Highway, but oniy persistent agitation on ithe part of moâ€" torists, who are paying the shot anyâ€" how, can end the apparent deadlock which is keeping closed to innumerable lovers of the open a vista of nature‘s treasure chest of loveliness. thrust upon their shoulders and the Federal legislators do not feel like subâ€" sidizing what they consider a provincial undertaking: and meanwhile motorists, both Canadian and American, are denied for a time an all Canadian highway from Halifax to Vancouver through the heart of Canada‘s incomâ€" parable natural attractions.
