"The forests of Canada rank secord only to agriculture among the primary industries in their contribution to Doâ€" minion production. They supply the raw material for the largest single inâ€" dustry, the pulp and paper industry. Bteps are now being taken towards placing Canadian forests on a sustainâ€" ed yield basis. It is now profitable as commercial investment to plant trees in Canada under conditions which are steadily becoming more favyâ€" ourable, though the full benefit of inâ€" tensive management will take time to appear.

The New Zealand Government also took a large quantity of tree seed. The total area covered by forests in Canada has been estimated at 1,151,454 square miles, of which about 82,260 square miles is land, which, if cleared, would be suitable for agriculture. Unâ€" der the most economic arrangement, about $52,000 square miles of this last area would be cleared and devoted to field crops and pusturage, and the reâ€" maining 30,000 square miles would, and no dcubt will be, left under forest in the form of farmers‘ woodlots. This leaves an area of about 1,100,000 square miles of land which could be utilized to the best advantage under forest.

Mr. Humphries remarks. "Chairman Fennessy may have thought that he could not trust his fellow councillors to deal with this matter," says Mr. Humphries, "but I am of the opinion that in refusing to allow witnesses to attend before this committee and to produce evidence which he had, he showed .that distrust in his fellow councillors contrary to the spirit of coâ€"operation which should have been displayed by a chairman of a police committee," "There should be coâ€"operation beâ€" tween the committee and the chief of police and constables who are enforecâ€" ing the law, but such committee should not in any way interfere with the chief of police in the proper and due perâ€" formance of his duties," the report says. Councillor Fennessy Did Not Coâ€"operate with Council The report goes thoroughly into all the happenings at meetings of the ppolice committee and the town counâ€" cil at which Mr. Fennessy attacked Chief Greer and Magistrate Mackay, and his efforts to have the chief reâ€" moved from office. Mr. Humphrics notes that when special committee was appointed to inquire into Mr. Fenâ€" nessy‘s allegations, only one complainâ€" ant appeared and, therefore, the chiel was exonerated. Although Mr. Humphries completed report on September 7, it has just »een released by the Attorneyâ€"Generâ€" al,; Col.â€"the Hon. W. H.

Mr. Humphries began the investiâ€" zation June 22 and continued, with weekâ€"end recesses, until July 8. C. A. Mulvihnill, of Arnprior, and H. A. Aylen, of Ottawa, represented Councillor Fenâ€" nessy and presented the evidence against the magistrate and chief. Walter F. Schroeder, of Ottawa, and S. Murray Chown, of Renfrew, acted for Chief Greer, and W. H. Williams, K.C., of Pembroke, represented Magistrate Mackay. E. A. Wright apipeared for the town of Renfrew. In his report, Mr. Humphries reviews the system in Renfrew by which the chief of police is employed by the town council and is under the supervisiOon 3f a police committee. All counsel were allowed full latiâ€" tude in examining and crossâ€"examining the 102 witnesses and in argument. Some 87 exhibits were fyled. When the charges were made by Councillor Fennessey they appeared to be preferred chiefly against Chief Greer. The chief at once demanded investigation and also said that he would take the matter to the courts to secure vindication. The Renfrew town council appointed a committee to invesâ€" tigate the matter, and this committee exonerated ‘Chief Greer. Councillor Fernessey did not assist the committee in its work, claiming that the invesâ€" tigation should be by the county judge. After the committee reported to counâ€" til, the question was taken up by the Attorneyâ€"General‘s department as there were suggestions that the fines were not in all cases turned over prompty to the proper authoritiee, though Chief Greer was able to show that he was not delinquent in this regard.

He is quoted as claiming that it was not a proper investigation and that the report rerresents the apinion only of one man. Councillor PFennessey is also quoted as saying that he intends to run again this year for municipal office.
