PROVINCE CONSIDERS DOUKHOBOR SETTLERS FOR NORTH COUNTRY

            Edmonton, July 31. – Whether or not Alberta wants more Doukhobor settlers is a question now being considered by the provincial government.  The matter came up through the recent request of the Doukhabor Colonization Society for information as to the possibilities for settlement in the Peace River country and the likely attitude of the Alberta government towards such a project.

            As announced at the time, there are said to be 5,000 of these people in Russia who are desirous of migrating to Western Canada.  The premier’s careful investigation will be necessary.
