C. N. R. Branch Line
Prograiii, Including
10 Miles in P. E. Is-
land, Approved by
Committee.
(Canadian Press)
OTTAWA. Feb, 2B-The bone UI
contention between the Canadian
National Railways and the Canadian
Pacific Railway with regard to H16
branch line program came up be-
fore the Parliamentary Committee on
Railways and Canals today. In all
respects ' an agreement has been
reached between the companies in
connection with their programs, but
one area claimed by both still re-
mains to be decided. This is in Sas-
katchewan. The line projected bc-
tween Melfort and Aberdeen being
the issue.
Sir Henry Tliornton, President of
the National system, told the com-
mittee that the Government-owned
road claimed this territory by virtue
of the fact that 12 years ago the old
Canadian Northern had already start
ed building there and had already
graded 19 miles ol the 67 mile pro-
ject. Four years ago, this line had
been one which had been presented
to the Government in the companys
program, but, with others it had
been rejected by the Senate. He felt
that the Railway had given ample evi-
dence of its good faith in proposing
to carry on with the construction.
