LCA A _ 3 2 1 B 1M i d e a e Ne CC MA _ AAALA o es I the route proposed for what he called the Cochrane route, the second route named here. This Nicholson route, Mr. ! pl NC ue Ne NA Shaw urged as the best route to advoâ€" cate for political reasons. It would suit Sudbury, Blind River, Chapleau and other towns. If the North could not agree on a route, Mr. Shaw thought the Government would shelve the highâ€" way for a time rather than angagonize large sections of the country calling for an outlet. To mset this political need he advocated the Nicholson route. For the several routes mentioned Mr. Shaw gave the following figures of the mileage of roadway to be constructed: North Shore route, 640 miles; Nichotâ€" som route, 691 miles; Cochrane route, via Hearst, Oba, etc., 507 miles; Norâ€" thern route, straight west from Hearst alongside the C.N.R., 518 miles. In reâ€" gard to costs, Mr. Shaw said the North Shore route would be so costly as to put it out of the running; the Northâ€"| en route would also be very costly; the | Cochrane and Nicholison routes were In referring to his expedition next year, Mr. Shaw said they would start from Sydney, N.S., and would conclude at Alberni, Vancouver Island. â€" They would use only mechanical means for traveliing and would use only the men and equipment with which they comâ€" menced. A direct route was impractiâ€" cal as there was 500 miles of forest, and to go straight across would mean cutting down trees which would be an impossible plan. To some extent the right of way at the side of the railway tracks would be used. For the fording of streams the trailer shown on the le:tterheads would be used, there being mechanical means for turning it to raft purposes. An outboard motor was included in the equimnent and this would be available when the water routes were used., The tractor would be necessary over tote roads and rightâ€" ofâ€"way and in some crossâ€"country secâ€" tions. "Mr. Shaw had been all over the route to be followed and knew it was practical. He said that the expedition (Continued from Page. One) Yobras roads. Mr. Shaw thought such a route might be part of the ultimate ‘Transâ€"Canada highway, but for the present it was impractical as it passed through difficult country where for hundreds of miles there was no settleâ€" ment and where roadâ€"building would be extremely costly. He himself had propoged a fourth route which he had named for convenitnce the Nicholson route this name catching on at once. The Néicholson route would run from Sudâ€" Bury through Chapleau and join up with the Transâ€"Canada highway from Hoarst at Oba or other point to be selected and proceed southwesterly on the route proposed for what he called the Cochrane route, the second route named here. This Nicholson route, Mr. Shaw urged as the best route to advoâ€" cate for political reasons. It would suit Sudbury, Blind River, Chapleau and other towns.

He graded the usefulness of each of the routes for settlement, as follows:â€" North Shore, 5 per cent.; Nicholson, 83 per ceont.; Cochrane route, 80 per cent.; Northern route, 60 per cent. In the‘ir attraction for tourists Mr. Shaw thought the routes about equal, bu: felt that for usefulness to promote se:â€" tleme it and for economy of cost the choice must go to either the Cochrane or the Nicholson route. As the westâ€" ern parts of both these routes were the same and as this gave all this part of the North and also the Sudbury, Blind River, Chapleau, etc., areas an outlet, and also because of the political adâ€" vantage in all uniting on one route} he specially favoured the Nicholson route. â€" <*T.

The highway would be completed across Canada for seven or eight million dolâ€" lars. Higher figures were for paved roads. The U.S., though 26 years ahead of Canada for highways, did not have a transâ€"continental highway that was all paved. Gravel roads were good enough for the present. Ths estimates for costs that he used were based on $15,â€" 00.00 per mile through easy country, whlile $14,000.00 pi»r mile was the cost of the Temagami section of the Ferguâ€" son highway through difficult country.
