Phone 8 6 5 Speaking before the Electric Club in Toronto recently, Hon. William Finlayâ€" son, minister of lands and forests, paid a high tribute to the great wealth and splendid future of the northern part of the province of Ontario. He named Kapuskasing as being one of the most important developments of the north. It is situated northâ€"west of Cochrane and two hundred miles from Hudson Bay. The Spruce Falls Power and Paper Co., are spending thirty million dollars not only in plant and equipâ€" ment but also in municipal developâ€" ments. _ Mr. Finlayson described the forest patrol service of the province, the monotonous vigils of the lookouts in their tall towers anda the hazardous scouting of planes over tne myriad miles of forests and lakes.

Highâ€"Grade Samples From Week‘s Run of the Press "We believe we lost about 40,000 acres Under the old conditions of four or five years ago we would have had to let her burn and pray for rain. Frem past experiences we have been forced to the conclusion that prayer alone is not always efficacious in fireâ€"fighting," concluded Mr. Finlayson. But in the northwest section of the province, the department has applied the lesson of the war, and has built up what is considered to be one of the finest commercial air services in the world, which patrols more than 100,080,â€" 000 acres. The speaker believed Maniâ€" toba lost more than 1,000,000 acres of forest by fire this summer. The same fire hazard was equally as acute in the Ontario Patricia District, which was patrolled by a fleet of ten planes with a huge mother ship to take in supplies and fireâ€"fighting equipment from the base at Sioux Lookout. Communicaâ€" tion was made by eight radio stations. At one time the chief ranger had 650 men under him. At another time 35â€"mile fire front was opposed by 500 men, all of whom had bee» taken in by plane. layson gave a clear insight into the value of the present organized service to the province. In the east of the area, practically 25,000,000 acres of forâ€" est is kept under the observation of the men in the lookout towers.

Philip Snowden, who was Chancellor of the Exchequer in the MacDonald Labour Government, speaking at Salisbury, predicted that the British Liberal party would gradually dissolve until there would be a "clear division of parties and policies" in the British Parliament. BRITISH LIBERALS‘ DISSOLUâ€" TION PREDICTED For Week of November 1 181. 151 169 110 133 100 144 110 138 137. 154 122 180 128 190 178 689 113 114 134 107 127 114 171 169 108 270 318 160 143 135 116 *3 2 329 263 188 239 244 303 322 114 285 309 195 The third outstanding point made by Hon. Mr. Finlayson in his address was that airships were not likely to become as common as flivvers for some time yet. There were some who lookâ€" ed for the dayâ€"and an early day at that,â€"when the airship would be as common to the sky as the automobile is toâ€"day on the roads. He did not share this viewpoint, and his reason for this might be summed up in the idea that it was chiefly the "upkeep" that would prevent this popular proâ€" phecy from early fulfilment. . While the initial cost of the aeroplane was no barâ€"$2,000 to $2,500â€" the Minister explained that 100 fiying hours was all that the Ontario Government aeroâ€" plane engines were allowed before beâ€" ing completely dismantled and overâ€" hauled d refitted and worn parts completely replaced. This was costly nual timber fire losses from two to three million acres per year to a comâ€" paratively scant forty or fifty thousand acres. He nstanced the astonishing accomplishments of geroplanes in fighting far Western Ontario fires last summer, where pilots flew thirteen and fourteenâ€"hour days, winging back and forth 120 miles transporting fireâ€"fightâ€" ing equipment to the scene of a costly and dangerous forest fire. The fire was out in a week, whereas without aeroplanes it mightn‘t have been disâ€" covered in two weeks. The contrasts of time and money saving in the use of aeroplanes in surâ€" vey and patrol work as compared with old methods proved very striking, parâ€" ticularly when the Minister recalled the old standard of 25 miles a day canoe . transportation _ progress as against the 800 to 1,000 miles a day now made possible by aeroplane pasâ€" sage into the great Northland. That it was economical transportation in money as well as time, the Minister proved with the submission of a figure of oneâ€"tenth of one cent an acre cost of aeroplane timber surveys. Aeroplane fire patrol, the Minister instanced, had resulted in cutting anâ€" The value of the air patrol was Mr. Finlayson‘s second main point. It was an exhaustive survey of Ontario Government aerial survey and patrol work that the Minister presented to the club members, and at the concluâ€" sion of his speech, through the medâ€" ium of aeroplane movingâ€"pictures, the audience figuratively was taken for an air cruise of Northern Ontario, skimâ€" ming lakes, rivers and forests as though they were actually on the wing. The work ot practrical value in aviaâ€" tion that had been accomplished by the Ontario Air Patrol as presented by the Minister of Lands and Forests was as interesting as any stunt fiying as well as having the advantage of prectical and apparent use and benefit There were three special points emâ€" phasized by Hon. Wm. Finlayson in a recent address to the Canadian Ciub at Toronto, when the Minister of Lands and Forests for Ontario spoke chiefly on aviation matters One of these points was that the future of aviation in Canada will be better built up along natural lines than through spectacular stunt flying. In this view Hon. Mr. Finlayson will be very genâ€" erally backed up by popular opinion. In giving his opinion Hon. Mr. Finâ€" layson while admitting his admiration for the tremendous nerve and courage of the ocean and Arctic fliers, still repressed the idea very generally acâ€" cepted surely in this province that stunt fiying is far too costly in its toll of human life for any doubtful beneâ€" fits that may follow in its wake. TIMBER«FRE LOSSES:CUT BY USE DF AIR PATROLS Hon. Wm. Finlayson Does Not Think Planes Will Become as Common as Flivvers Yet Awhile. "Rossy of Ice Cream Parlour fame shooting syphons of soda with excellent marksmanship quenching the sizzlers with one fizz. "Ben Byck paddling across the lake in ‘"nothing flat" in order to "snake" his cars away from the danger zone. "The pronounced lack of lipstick and powder puff on the part of the fair sex who attended the "Midnight enâ€" tertainment." "(Dominick) Fat Gelinas using hand fire extinguisher from the second storey of the Globe hotel in a vain atâ€" tempt to squelch the roaring furnace. Fat made a valiant effort to stop the fire and used a very unique method to get at the same by kicking a hole through the window of the Globe hotel which effort nearly cost him his leg. ‘"The man who was frantically trying to secure long distance on ‘the teleâ€" phone and received a drenching of water when the fire boys suddenly apâ€" peared through the front door armed to the teeth. "Barney Welsh directing the play of water at the back of the burning buildâ€" ing. (Barney has no filame fighting experience but still believes in the old adage "water, water, quench fire." Barney further suffered a very sore throat and a bad cold and was laid up for a day or so attended by Dr. Rudd) "The man who walked out with his coat and vest on carrying his trousers and the top of a trunk. "Allen Moore, a solicitor of Ottawa, a visitor to Rouyn at the time, leadâ€" ing out the horses from a stable behind the burning buildings. (Said horses grazing peacefully on the corner lot while the populace of Rouyn would fall). "Chief of Police Lapointe directing matters in a very efficient manner. In reference to the recent fire at Rouyn, The Rouyn News has some amusing comments to make in a colâ€" umn headed "Flares from the Big Blaze," and contributed apparently by Joe Doax. Some of the names menâ€" tioned will be recognized by Timmins readers as people wellâ€"known here, while all the paragraphs will be of inâ€" terest. The one about the man with his coat on and carrying his .trousers is more or less typical of what is very liable to happen in the excitement of almost any fire. However here are the ‘"Flares from the Big Blaze," as pubâ€" lished by The Rouyn News:â€" Terse Comments on the Recent Fire at Rouyn business, he said, but in Ontario‘s case it had justified itself by entirely elimiâ€" nating accidents last year.
