HOUSING PLAN

Kitimat’s residential section, lo-
cated in a flat clearing about five
miles from the plant and surrounded
by snow-capped mountains, is a bee-
hive of industry as contracters rush
to completion modern houses which
employees are buying under a unique
easy-payment plan initiated by Alcan.
A typical three-bedroom unit wiil
cost $14,000. Down payment is $700
with a $9,200 first mortgage being
financed through Central Mortgage
& Housing Corporation. Because the
cost of house construction at Kitimat

-|is higher compared to other parts of

B.C., Alcan is financing a $4,000
second mortgage but repays this
amount to home-owning employees
by way of a monthly bonus of $2.35
per §1000 for the total price, or
$39.90 a month on a $14,000 approv-
ed home. Net monthly payment by
the purchaser exclusive of taxes and
insurance, is $58.74.

Kitimat is inno sense a “company
town.”’ Busine: will all be pri-

SAFETY RECORD

A 100% safety record was chalked
up in the building of Kitimat until
opening week when a workman was
killed in a cave-in while working on
sewer construction. However, ten
men lost their lives in the Kemano
dam-building project in addition to
29 workmen and company officials
who were killed on October 17, 1951,
when their aircraft, returning trom
the coast, crashed into Mount Benson
near Nanaimo while headed north in
a driving snowstorm.

At the present time the only ac-
cess to Kitimat is by water or air.
But in order to service an industrial
community the size of Kitimat new
transportation. facilities will have to
be opened up. The harbor installa-
tion is now complete and is fully
adequate to supply the needs of the
area for the forseeable future. A
railroad connection to the north is
nearing completion and is expected
to be in use by the end of the year.
This line, built by the C.N.R., will
counect Kitimat with the town of
Terrace, 43 miles to the north. Ter-
race is a station on the C.N.’s main’
transcontinental line running from
Prince Rupert to the east. As the
town and smelter grow, it is expected
that a suitable highway will be built
parallel to, the railroad line to Ter-
race. When this construction fs com-
pleted, Kitimat will be the centre of
a prosperous industrial community,
linked to other Canadian cities by
railroad, bus, ship and airlines.
