Jack Faithful of the Power outfit boosted his average again when he rolled the first string over 200 and the highest on his team in that game. Wholesalers Leading in the Commercial League plant willbe located not far from To- ronto. The ores require no concentrat- ing. but will be treated in their present form. The first shipment of 30 tons is already at the end of steel and can be delivered to any given point by rail in a few days. The company has made iconsiderable progress of late and it is ' quite possible that they will enter pro- ‘ duction this year or early in 1933. “Officials of the company have sat- isfied themselves that sufficient high- grade are has been deveIOped to war- rant their action in proceeding with plans for treatment of ore. Several ad- ditional shipments of pitch-blende will be made this coming season and it is believed that it issumciently high grade to yield a substantial profit. Silver may be left "to a later date. althaugh this is also of sufliciently high grade to show a profit. The company’s policy in connection with this metal has yet; to be decided. ‘ “The coming season's work at the; Eldorado should go a long way toward disclosing the proportions cf the ven- ture. Some thirty men will be sent in in March and will work through until September. Attention will be cen'tréd on the main property at LaBin-e Point, where the pitch-blende was found, but work will also be done on the Bonanza silver claims farther south. The com- pany‘s annual repart is now being pre- pared and should be available before the annual meeting. which. it is under- stood. will be held in Toronto next April." ”It is understood that Eldorado is now arranging for a site to erect their plant to recover radium from the pitch- blend-e. An announcement in this re- spect is expected shortly, although ar- rangements have yet to be completed. Several promising locations are under advisement. and it is possible that the Paris. has been retained by Eldorado Gold Mines, to take charge of the treatment of the company‘s pitch- blende (radium) ores from Great Bear Lake. it is learned. Mr. Pochon is one of the few men in the world who un- derstands thoroughly the methods of recovery of radium and is claimed to be possibly the only man ‘to place ac- tual radium in lead “needles” or con- t-ainers. He has had extensive experi- ence in the mining of the metal in the Belgian Congo and also in the handl- ing of the mineral for medical purposes. having spent considerable time in Eng- land for this latter purpose. A couple of weeks ago reference was made in The Advance to the radium- bearing ore from Great Bear Lake, samples of wh ch ore were brought to t‘-1e camp by the Messrs St. Paul. of South Porcupine. Recently there have been further references made to the radium ore of the Great Bear Lake area. and last week there was an in- teresting despatch from Toronto in this connection. This despatch was as follows:â€" Eldorado Retains an Expert on Radium Great Bear Lake Proptrty Secures Ser- vices of M. Pochon. who has Ex- tensive Know‘edge In Handling Radium Ores. “.Mr Pochon, graduate of the School I Industrial Physics and Chemistry. 'aris. has been retained by Eldorado The Toronto Star on Monday said: “Hon. William Finlayson, Minister of Lands and Forests. to-day denied he had anything to do with sending to the northern trans-Canada. highway camp men from Victoria. Harbour, to replace some who had been laid off. Victoria Harbour is not the minister's home town, as alleged, although it is. in his constituency. “C. R. Harrison, M.P.P.. was in to see me this morning and talk- ed; about this matter," said Mr. Flnla.y-_ scn. “These men were sent from Vic- toria. Harbour by the unemployment committee on Dec. 14. The northern development department had nothing to do with it.” HON. MR. FINLAYSON DENIES HE USED INFLUENCE IN JOBS Of course, the tourist trade will not be materially large until the road to Sud- bury is completed. making a belt line of roads for the North. so that visitors may motor up by one route and return by another. instead of having to travel north for hundreds of miles and then return by the same route. With the activity and interest now :being shown by the association formed in Sudbury to secure the completion of the connecting roadway between Sudbury and the Porcupine, together with the work of the Northern Ontario Associated Boards of Trade and other bodies along the same line, there is hope at present- that this much needed and desired roadway may be commenced at an early date and rushed to completion. In such a case every added attraction here, such as the summer park, zoo and amusement place suggested by Mr. Babcock would be of advantage to the district and have chance of success. Writing from Orange City,. Florida. where he is on a business and p‘easure trip at present. W. F. Babeock. known here as “The Lot. Man" on account of his activities for some time past in the selling of lots of lots, says that. he ex- pects to return to Timmins about April lst, and that he then will have real news for the town and district in the way of a summer park and amusemen": and a summer dance floor on a new plan. He also expects to have a few cages of alligators as the basis for a zoo garden. Since coming to Tim- mins a year or no ago Mr. Babcock has had the idea of starting something in town or very clcse to town in the na- ture of a summer park and amusement ti ace something along the line of those successful in Southern places. Appar- ently he has some new ideas from his present trip and has arrangements made to carry them out. The estab- lishment of a summer park and amuse- ment place here would be an added at- traction for tourists, as well as a source of pleasure to the townspeople here. Of course, the tourist. trade will not be materially large until the road to Sud- Suggests Summer Park for Timmins This Year xHandsome cash prizes are awarded, but this year interest is much above the usual.

The casual reference to ‘the motor trip suggests how remarkably good the roads and the weather must 'be in this North to make mssible mqtor trips between Kapus- kasing and Heamst. Among the local and personal items in The Northern Tribune last week was a note saying that Mr. and Mrs. J. P. A warning of the danger of another great war was given this week by Brig. General F. P. Crodier, who said that “only the death of one American sailâ€" or at the hands of a Japanese sailor. scldier or airman is needed to cause some American admiral to clear for action in defence of national honour of his country and at the expense of in- ternational dishoneur and disaster. “This American Admiral would be fertified by the injunctions of his pre- sident that ‘American lives will be pro- tect-ed at all costs’." ' The case against John B. Mcore. for- mer tax callector at Oochrane. came up again in police court at Cochrane on Mcnday of this week. but was not pro- ceeded with on acccunt cf the fact that the counsel for the defence held that he had not a fair chance to pre- pare the defence in the case as the charge was not sufficiently settled. The charge on Monday was that of the theft cf $3 500.00 from the municipality of Cochrane. ' Writing in the Sunday Chronicle, L general said: WARNS AGAINST DANGER OF ANOTHER VVORLD-VVIDE “’AR Crown-Attorney Cald'bick explained that G. N.

The magistrate adjourned the case till Feb. 15. f them were rentals collected from one of the largest taxpayers in town, to be applied to tax arrears.

The same goes for all this northern country. I became acquainted with this part of Ontario over twenty years ago and I tell the department that they have only 50 per cent. of the game that they should have, allowing for loss by mining and settlement. President Kirkland-Larder Lake Game and Fish Protective Asscciation Six years ago, when first becoming acquainted with Larder lake, a beauti- ful piece of water of about fourteen square miles. we found commercial and domestic fishing licenses issued. In order to save the few trout left we cir- culated petitions to the department for [a cessation of same as the pickerel and ”film were long since all netted out. ‘The domestic licenses were continued until the present time and the lake Ipractically became barren till again the department was petitioned. We fought our case before the game com- missioner in New Liskeard last fall. with their thousands of miles cf shore line. Gold lake in Alberta. was netted to the extent of 40 tons per year until it was accessabie by motor road. Then the licenses were discontinued on the ground that the lake was more valuabIe as a. tcurist proposition than for net fishing. Fish and game preservation should receive the attention of all in the [North because the subject is of vital importance to the welfare of the pub- lic generally. With the increase in tourist traffic the matter assumes add- .ed interest. Accordingly the following I letter sent to one of the Toronto daily lpapers last week is at least worthy ,of more than passing notice, whether the conclusions arrived at or the sug- gestions made are fully accepted or not:â€" 1T0 the Editor of The Star If the department is going to grant licenses why not grant them t3 Tima- gami and other large m d3 es- of water In this province it has been the de- partment's policy to grant net licenses in small lakes like Larder, Ribb, Ken-3- gamissie and Tonicho un'til they have become totally depleted, thereby low- ering them as a tourist proposition to the tune of thousands of dollars yearly. Eight years ago in BC. in the Tete Juan valley (head waters of the Fraser) a report was written to that depart- ment about salmon spearing and in six days a protective officer was on the job. It just took six days to accomplish what it took us six years in this province. Sir: As a. lover of wild life and a keen observer of the methods adopted by the various provinces and their game laws and regulations, I consider this province is at least twenty years behind the times.
