L i | 4 ty We had a letter from the Navy Leaâ€" l P gue of Canada saying:â€"*"That the ; 8 Navy League is pwrepared to receive apâ€" | E plications from British people who are | t already settled in Canada. and want 8 to bring out their families, relatives or | 1 friends from the Old ‘Country to setâ€"| t tle in Canada. Applicants are to deâ€" | 1 posit 2501 of the fare from the British | port of emburkation to the dest nations 1| in Canada. The Navy League will obâ€" |I tain a loan of the remaining 75%, for t them from the British Reunion 4Â¥ssoâ€" | k ciation, and they will be expected to repay this loan to the Association in 18 equal monthly instalments, at 6%% inâ€" terest per annum, nayable halfâ€"yearly. Example:â€"A family consisting of parâ€" ents and 2 children between the ages of 5 and 10, going to Toronto, the iniâ€" tial deposit would be $50.00,, and the | repayments would be about $8.00 per month for 18 months. It is distinctly understood that the Navy League will not be responsible for finding employâ€" ment or giving any financial assistance to immigrants after they have arrived in Canada. The person who wants to | bring anyone out under the above conâ€" ditions must assume responsibility forl them when they arrive in Canada. I| have some pamphlets on the question which can be seen any time at my home address. \ ( t mm en eb This is a good thing for a man to get his family out, who has work and a good livelihood in Canada, and can Took after them when they arrive. But under present labour conditions it would be foolish to bring out a person to get work here. Work is bad enough | to get for those who are here at times; in fact I had a returned man in last week who could not get work at all in the camp. He mentioned one place where some names were called out that certainly were not Angloâ€"Saxon, and there were considerable Angloâ€"Saxons around at the time, some who had. served King and Country. He said these men apparently oculd understand little English, but seemed to underâ€" stand that their names were called out for work. This man is married and has a family which makes things all the harder for him, and I‘m sure we all would have felt same as this comâ€" rade did, when he heard names called | out for employment, that had no Anâ€" t glcâ€"Saxon in them. I would advise the gentleman who calls the names out in this manner to "whisper them," instead cof shouting them cut, as there might be exâ€"soldiers in the lineâ€"up who naâ€" turaly resent this kind of thing and are sure to report this kind of work, which is sure to get publicity, as that is about the only weapon we have left. Anyhow, let‘s hope this kind ,of thing will stop and when any shouting out of names is needed for employment Ebe Canabian Leqton in the Dorcupine ...â€"..â€"0'â€"..â€"-'.-‘“-â€"" e THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO By the Secretaryâ€"Treasurer ‘as the troops will not swallow it.

There are several prize winners that have not come for their prizes yet, and I wish they would come and get them. One comrade who holds the bacon has a hard time keeping the bacon whole, as it is that good and he says his dog has both eyes on the bacon. So the winners of the bacon‘ hurry up before the dog beats them to it. We have had no word up to date of the janitership of the new post office. Most of the returned men are surprisâ€" ed that the qualifications are so stringâ€" ent for this position. One comrade ofâ€" fers to bet that no appointment is made until after the election. He looks as if lhg has picked a winner as the election is drawing near. Anyhow, the Legion knows where the whitewash comes from, and who is supplying it. Several attempts have been made to put the blame on someone else, and to smooth things over as far as a certain party was concerned. But anyhow they cannot tell this stuff to the troops This week being the week the "Ghost Walks," we hope to have in the few reâ€" maining dues that are out, and numâ€" ber of application forms in memâ€" bership. Any comrade who has a prospective member lined up can obtain forms from Ajudgement that may affect the holding of nearly 7,000 square miles of timberland in Newfoundland and 1%,â€" 000 square miles in Labrador, was handed down by Chief Justice Sir Wilâ€" liam Horwood recently at St. John‘s Newfoundland, when the full bench aâ€" greed on the right of the Government to forfeit licenses held on 1,000 square miles of timber by George Jardine and Michael J. Martin. An acti®@ had been brought by the Attorneyâ€"General and the Department of Agriculture and Mines against the licensees. The judgment upheld the right of the Government to forfeit the licenses due to the fact that the defendants had not complied with the terms on which they held the property. Under the terms of the license the parties were obliged to pay $2 per square mile and a royalty of 25 cents per thousand feet for timber cut. They were to comâ€" mence within a year, and cut 100,000 feet every 24 hours or to expend $50,â€" 000 in the erection of mills for the manufacture of pulp and paper within five years. rzovernment‘s Right to Forfeit Timber Rights The defence contended that because they had paid their license fees until they <were refused in November, 1928, and because a former Government had waived the other conditions previous to the commencement of this action, forâ€" feiture could not be exercised. The judgement says "the acceptance of annual rental waived ‘the right to forfeiture existing at the time when the rent was received, but it did nothâ€" ing more. It did not compel the Minâ€" ister to accept rent for a succeeding year if the breach of the condition conâ€" tinued." Thirteen parties hold licenses similar to that of Martin and Jardine involvâ€" ing 11,000 square miles in Labrador, while in Newfoundland there are 62 licenses covering 6,800 square miles of timberland.

During the period under review, which completes the company‘s fiscal year, the mine produced $246,200 from 28709 tons milled in comparison with On the above official figures it wil be seen that Vipond extracted $8.58 per ton. The actual value of ore sen: to the mill might be estimated someâ€" what over $9 to the ton. Operating costs are running consistently around $4.62 per ton, while depreciation, taxes, and other writeâ€"offs would bring total costs to approximately $5 per ton, leavâ€" ing the difference or aprroximately $3.58 net per ton profit. The mill is handling a daily tonnage of between 320 and 350 tons. Summing up the Vipond financial position, the sum of $250,000 is invested in Huronian Mining Development Co. and there is a further surplus treasury position at June 30th of apâ€" proximately $650,000. Outside a church in Aberdeen stood a woman with a baby in her arms. Both were crying. A man stopped and asked what was the trouble. "Och, sir," said the woman, "they won‘t baptize the bairn till they get five shillin‘ and I don‘t have it." "Dear me," said the Aberdonian, "if that‘s all, we‘ll soon put that right. Here‘s a pound for ye. Go and get the bairn baptized and bring me the change." In ten minutes the woman Came back smiling and returned fifteen shillâ€" ings "Ah, my good woman," said the man, "and were all happy.

Such restrictions naturally (lead to reduced buying power on the part of the people, in turn affecting manuâ€" facturers and producers in every line. This problem has demanded the highâ€" est qualities of statesmanship for its solution and, the trend having been early recognized by the King Adminisâ€" tration, a nonâ€"partisan and highly comâ€" petent Tarriff Board was appointed. The result of the tireless efforts of this Board is the Kingâ€"Dunning Budget. King Budgets during the past nine years have kept living costs down.
