It is fair to the industrial com- mittee of Kingston to say that it was not unanimous to have the Peterboro company remove there un- ,til its position was more clearly 1 established. Assisted industries are, `after all, a. decidedly speculative in- vestment for a clty to make. Kingston has been anticipating the removal of Birmingham Motors, Ltd.. from Peterboro to its own precincts. The condition was that Kingston people should subscribe $50,000 of its stock. Many signa- `tures had `been obtained, but for-' tunately no cash paid over, when Dunn's Bulletin published the `fol- lowing: Birmingham Motors, Ltd. -Sherifi` in possession of stock.

The cost of coal cannot come down till min- ing costs are lower and freight rates less. Wages at the mines have doubled since the days nbefore the war. A little less coal has come out each year, and the cost for 1920 was two and :1 half times the cost of 1914. Everything used in mining is higher, especially timber, and timber is :1 big item. For every ton of coal mined at least nine board feet of timber are used.
