It is not as if Canada were a finished counâ€" try, in the sense that no public works of any kind were needed. There are "One of the most dGdistinguishing characteristics of the present depresâ€" sion is the almost entire absence of anything approaching candor and honesty on the part of the leading paâ€" pers of the country, and the leaders in politics. _ And nowhere is this more evident than in regard to the matter of direct relief. It is not very many months ago that the leaders in press and politics were virtuously declaiming after the fashion of the Pharisee, that we, in Canada, were not as other peoâ€" ple; that we would never tolerate the "dole." No, truly, we have not got the "dole," but we have got something inâ€" finitely worse, in the form of direct reâ€" lief. The soâ€"called dole, as is in force in England, is really a form of unâ€" employment insurance, properly unâ€" derstood. Direct relief, as we have it now in Canada, is something of which it is practically imptossible to say anyâ€" thing good. While the governments were providing relief work, we heard a great deal about its high cost, now we hear wery little concerning the high cost of direct relief, so far as the daily and financial press is concerned. In this it appears that the weekly press of the country is both better posted and reflects to a greater degree public sentiâ€" ment, for the weekly press is almost unanimous inits objection to the presâ€" ent form of directrelief. Objection and criticism is direct and outspoken on the matter. A fair example of fhe comment that is appearing weekly is the following from the columns of the Sudbury Star:â€""This problem of direct relief is getting to be a thorn in the fesh. Heavily burdened taxpayers are more than ever feeling the serious efâ€" fects of the continued drain upon their resources, and their temfers are not being improved by the threatening and arbitrary attitude in certain instances of men accepting relief. An ideal sysâ€" tem has not yet been evolved. No policy which will give needy ones proâ€" per sustenance without imposing an alâ€" most unbearable load upon the average citizen is in sight. Yet the jobless breadwinner and his family cannot be 1 allowed to starve. Some communities have not experienced the severe proâ€" blem prevailing in others, and in this sense the debt to society in general is not equitably distributed. And worst of all, there is nothing tangible shown for the thousands of dollars that are being given in lieu of wages and salâ€" aries." "The principle of direct relief has never received support from either the press nor the general public. With the steady decrease in relief work and the continually increasing number of unâ€" employed, there is very general disâ€" satisfaction that no properly adequate measures are being worked out to take care of the situation. Though it is true that the provincial and federal governâ€" ments are paying a larger share of the cost of direct relief, that in itself proâ€" vides no comfort for the harassed taxâ€" papers of the country. Though at first glance it might appear that the burden of direct relief is bearing more heavily upon the shoulders of the larger taxâ€" payers, because the funds are coming out of the provincial and federal treasâ€" uries, it is usually the case that tax burdens have an unhappy knack of settling down upon the shoulders of the greatest taxpayer of allâ€"«â€"the conâ€" suming public. It really matters little upon whom the taxes are Ooriginally imâ€" posed, the general public pays them, and therefore has a right to protest if money is being squandered in an unâ€" wise manner. And anyone giving the matter careful thought must come to the conclusion that the direct relief now so generally prevailing is just about the worst piece of folly ever perpetrated upon a longâ€"suffering public. The silence of some of the daily newspapers on this matter is remarkâ€" able, to say the least. However, the weekly newspapers, probably closer to the people in general, have certainly been vocal in this matter. The Adâ€" vance from time to time has published references from the weekly and semiâ€" weekly press on the matter. Here is anâ€" other from The Northland Post, of Cochâ€" rane. In an editorial last week The Post says:â€" _ _PFor a considerable time The Advance has been condemning the idea of direct relief. Unemployment can on‘y be reâ€" lieved by employment, it has been pointed out time and again. Employâ€" ment for relief purposes has a benefiâ€" clal effect on all sections of the comâ€" munity, The most that can be claimâ€" ed for direct relief is that it keeps a few from actual starvation. It starts., however, a vicious circle of further need for relief. The one excuse made for direct relief is that the country can not afford the cost of employment for reâ€" lief purposes. It is surely evident by this time that direct relief is imposing a staggering cost on the country. Counting its indirect efforts it is going to prove more costly than the employâ€" ment plan. Direct Relief Not Approved by Public Weekly Press has led in Objection to this Costly and Inadequate Plan of Relief.

Gray, of Toâ€" ronto, were visitors to the camp last week, visiting friends here. "The absence of anything, to show for the expenditures on direct relief is bad enough in itself, but the cost of direct relief in the manhood and initiative of the people is appalling to contemplate. And the end is not yet in sight. Nor is there the slightest evidence that anyâ€" thing approaching a solution of the problem is being honestly sought. Reâ€" lief expenditures are on the increase, while government revenues continue to decline, yet so far there has been no real move made to alter conditions. Whether in terms of manhood, or dolâ€" lars and cents, the cost of direct relief is becoming a burden which will wreck the country, if drastic measures are not resorted to." The next regular meeting of the town council will be held on Tuesday next, Oct. l1th; commencing at 4 p.m. The regular days for council meetings are the second and fourth Mondays of each month, but Monday next coming on a general holiday, Thanksgiving Day, the council has deferred its sesâ€" sion to the following day, Oct. 11th. plenty of public undertakings from one end of the country to the other, most of them needed now, such as the Norembegaâ€"La Reine road, the conâ€" necting link in the Transâ€"Canada highâ€" way and many others.

Maruska was a patient in the former mine hospital here for 182 days, from October, 1930, to April, and he entered Weston in May of the latter year. Except for about one month, he has been there since." The Cobalt Weekly Post last week says:â€"‘‘"The action for mairftenance of two alleged indigent patients, in which the town of Cobalt has been named defendant at the instance of the Toronto Hospital for Consumptives, and in which the municipality is being sued for $735, is down for disposal at the nonâ€"jury sitting of the County of York, opening in Toronto on Monday next, but an effort will be made to have the hearing transferred to Haileybury. George Mitchell, K.C., who is representâ€" ing the town in the dispute, declared he intended making a motion before the presiding judge, secking to have the trial held in this district. The patients mentioned in the record fyled are Jacko Maruska and Julius Vaino, and in the case of the former the municipality contends he was an emâ€" ployee of the Frontier mine at Silver Centre, while it is alleged nothing deâ€" finite is known of the other man.

Whatever the ultimate outcome of the legal proâ€" ceedings, there has been no change at the Falls so far. Despatches this week from Toronto say that Mr. Justice R. G. Fisher on Monday adjudged the Abitibi Power Paper Co. to be bankrupt, in a decision handed down at Osgoode hall. The company had been in receivership for several weeks following failure to meet its obligations. Application was made by the Canada Packers Company, Toâ€" ronto. â€"G. T. Clarkson was appointed liquidator. H. W. Shapley, counsel for the petitioners outlined the position of the company. He said that there were outstanding first mortgage gold bonds series "A" due 1953 to the sum of about $48,000,000 and further company was indebted for trade debts, current acâ€" counts and bills payable in the sum of $850,000; deferred liabilities in excess of $2,500,000; and its bankers for $4,â€" 250,000.__ Debts to bankers, he said, "are or may be secured." The bonds, he also pointed out, were secured by mortgage on assets and undertakings of the company. Mr. Shapley said he believed from information in his hands there were no assets of the company to be realized for the trade and unsecured creditors. (From Powassan News) "Pa, what‘s the difference between a statesman and a politician? "A statesman, my son, wants to do something for his country; a politician wants his country to do something for him."

Rouillier, parish priest at Haileybury for the past three years, has been transferred to the parish of Nedelec, Quebec, some ten miles above North Temiskaming. He left Haileyâ€" bury last week to take up his new duâ€" ties at Nedelec. "What can the poor fellows do?" the answer is that the best plan forâ€"a deâ€" serving man is to stay where he is known. He surely has the best chance for work or for help where he is known. If he hasn‘t it is certainly because there is something wrong with him or his case. complicating the relief problem. "Why do these fellows move around so much and get so far away from where they are known and where their friends might help them?" is a question often asked. The answer is that in some cases they plan to get where they are not known and this very fact is anâ€" other reason why their tendency to ltravel should be curbed. Still another reason why the "sideâ€"door pullman" travellers should be regulated is the fact that during the past few months they have become so numerous and so bold that they have been interfering with trainmen and in some cases have assaulted members of the train crews. Also, it may be said that the health and safety of the travellers themselves requires that the stealing of rides on trains be stopped so far as possible. During the past year or two there have been a number of the "sideâ€"door pull-‘ man" travellers who have been seriousâ€" ly injured or killed while stealing rides on the railway. Others have needed hospital care and even burial on acâ€" count of the effects of the exposure and hardship entailed by the mode of travel of those who journey by stolen rides ‘"on the rods." be unemployable. § the fact that the trg tances by stolen trai: complicating the reli¢ do these fellows move and get so far away are known and whe might help them?" is asked. The answer Campaign Against the Transients on the Trains The campaign against transients »aling rides on trains is now well der way, The authorities have been used to action in this regard by the iIis that are so evident from tranâ€" ‘nts travelling from place to place. iief among these evils is the fact at unless the "hobo" schemes are ecked the country will be cursed with regular army of tramps who will soon unemployable. _ Secondly, there is e fact that the travelling long disâ€" ces by stolen train rides is greatly "The final period opened with the Liskeard boys away down in the cellar, so far as goals were concerned, but not a bit downsofar as courage and deterâ€" mination were concerned. The "junior‘ line was shot out for the opening of the third prriod and the way those kids stepped on the gas for a few minutes was great. They were rewarded by two goals, Gagnon and Morris being the scorers, and only "tough luck" kept them from having a couple more at least, However, the Dome team came back and demonstrated their skill and experience by notching two more goals before the game ended. "Mr. "Paddie‘"‘ Brennan, an oldâ€"time star of the Montreal Shamrocks, when lacrosse stood "ace high" as Canada‘s national game, and Archie Briden, former hockey star, were the officials, and, true to the traditions of the old time style of game, allowed just a little too much strenuous stuff. That class of play will have to be discouraged or lacrosse will never come back to public favour, and referees will have to see to it that they do their part in making the game as popular as it should be. The teams were practically the same as took part in the previous game, with a couple of additions, and an expected return game should fill cannot resist the temptation. It is to point out the inconsistency of the day, as illustrated by a couple of instances of the past fortnight. In Peterboro a nude boy was caught swimming, and fined ten dollars. In Toronto an artâ€" ist is reported to have issued an ultiâ€" matum: "Hang my paintings of nude females or none at all," and they were hung without© a murmur.

Harvey, McLean, Harvey and Pollard scored in succession for the Dome team before the first twenty minutes were over. Liskeard was pretty well sewn up, although the boys fought back for all they were worth. Each team had many chances, but the visitors were not as successful in placing their shots where the goalie was not. "The second period saw the homesters go still further out in front when goals were scored by Harvey, Pollard and Harvey, in order. "Noisy" Clark, the Dome goalie, appeared to better adâ€" vantage than the Liskeard goalie, when it came to picking the shots out of the gloom.
