These unem the expense of planes and other things to travel. I am sure that before the Government ever discovers a Dome oi Hollinger, McIntyre, or Lake Shore, that the profits of the mine would be eaten up before they started to da=â€" velop it and there woulg be thousands more unemployed in Ontario than there are today. It‘s just going to drive Noah Timmins, Jack Hammell and all the rest of the builders of the North to Quebec and other provinces wher> they will invest and develop new minss and give employment to thousands there. Does Mr. Shaver know what it costs to bring all our gold mines to the dividendâ€"paying basis? Will the Govâ€" ernment hire as many prospectors as there will be cut this summer and were last summer and who pay their $5.00 license and also for recording? This part of it will mean tens of thouâ€" sands of dollars loss alone to the Mineos Dept. This Shaver idea is just the first step to a mixâ€"up like the National Railâ€" way affairs. I say keep hands off the mining before you add further damaze to the North and stop its progress. Ah. A. A. North Points out the Many ild be Retarded by Plan Proâ€" and lots would get lost and then th> Government would go to the expense of hunting for them. If a good thing is found under this Government scheme who is going to build the homes for the workers and the waterwOorks, schools, and make a town like Timâ€" .mms" I say if the profits from the lmme go to the Government then all the profits from everything else at the mine should go to them. They should build their own town, have their own big department store, waterworks and everything and not allow any priâ€" vate money to be invested.

The railways will lose because the prospectors won‘t be travelling to Toâ€" ronto to sell and make deals and form companies. Claims nct accepted by engineers will have no dynamite or maâ€" chinery on them like they would if lef} as the law is now. Business of all kinds will suffer. If this Shaver idea is to bear fruit the Government will have to discover four or more Hcllinger minés. That‘s a pretty hard thing to do. If hundreds of experts who have been prospecting them for many a year past can‘t find them, how is the GoVemment goâ€" ing to flet them with |/ mexperlence’i prespectors? Let it be known also that mostly all thc areas where the big ones ars is already owned anq that‘s where the next big ones. will be. _ Shaver‘s idea if carried out will put the railâ€" ways in worse they are beâ€" cause the prospectors won‘t be travelâ€" ling back and forth from their claims to Torcnto to make d@eals and form companies, and neither will they travel of wages wceuld thev receive?

This plan was followed some weeks ago, and repeated again last Friday, when the Staff Sergeant and two of his officers, a Justice "of the Peace and J. O.

The local patrol of the provinâ€" cial police, under staff Sergt.

When M. Robhan and his family went out on Saturday night, they left the stove in their home at the rear of 33 Fourth avenue in bad shape and when they came back . early Sunday morning they found that $500 damagze had been done by fire, A constable on his beat noticed the: smoke and fire and called the fire »brigade. A large chemical tank and one line of hose were used to extinguish the blaze. The place is owned by J. Donasvitch and both the building and contents were insured. Yesterd _ This practice has been followed in the present report although it was vigâ€" orously condéemned by Mr. Racine. At _the present low rate at which money may be borrowed now even if this had | been procided for, the road would have i had a deficit of less than a million dolâ€" ;lars without considering the benefit it | was to Northern "Ontario. The capital expenditure, advanced by the province in the form of a lcan to | the T. N. O. in its carly days is $37,â€" 000,000. It had never been the intenâ€" tion of the government to charge inâ€" | terest upon this sum since the road was !builL primarily to open up the North ‘ country. The fact that the new comâ€" lmission follows the preceaents in the past in this regard, in the face of obâ€" jections by Mr. Racine, is considered very significant.

It is suggested that when the T. N. O. is transferred to the prime minister‘s department, this $37,000,000 may be reâ€" financed by a bond issue at present low ration T wo C In presenting the T. N.

CHINA An issue of notes that has not been seen in Timimmins, as far as can be learnâ€" ed, has been in circulation in many parts of Canada during the past few months. The "Queen Mary" $5 bills, 2,000,000 of which are printed and isâ€" sued by the Dominion of Canada at the request of the chartered banks appearâ€" ed in several cities. This is taken to mean, in some quarters, that the charâ€" tered banks will withdraw most of the On each note appear the signatures of G. F. Towers, governor of the Bank of Canada and J,. A. C. Osborne, deâ€" putyâ€"governor. The words "Ottawa, issue of 1935," are prominent on the bills. The $100‘s which agre chocolate brown show the Duke of Gloucester. On the reverse is "a male figure, child and ship, symbolic of the methods of transportaâ€" tion used by industry. Factories apâ€" pear in the background. Canadian statesmen were left to the seldom seen notes, the $500‘s and $1,000‘s. The $500 one, sepia brown, has a portrait of Sir John A. Macdonald and on the back "a female figure repreâ€" senting the products of fields and orâ€" chards." The olive green $1,000 note bears the portrait of Sir Wilfred Laurâ€" ier.. The $50 note, brown with a shade of red, portrays the Duke of York on the face and on the back, "an allegorical figure depicting modern inventions, inâ€" dicated by radio and broadcasting. The $20 deep rose note on its. face an engraving made from a recent photoâ€" graph of Princess Elizabeth, grandâ€" daughter of the King and Queen. The Toiller is represented on the reverse, "exhibiting the product of the wheat fields to a female figure representing the Spirit of Agriculture." The five dollar note is orange, has an engraving of .the Prince of Wales in colonel‘s uniform and on the reverse a symbolic figure of Power, with a sledge hammer and a dynamo, with a water« fall, dam and power line in the backâ€" ground. The $10 bill is purple and has on the face a portrait of Princess Mary in evening dress. The reverse is a "classic draped figure emblematic of Harvest," sitting on the horn of plenty. The two dollar notée is blue, bears a portrait of Queen Mary in evening dress and on the reverse a figure Oof Mercury, with an aeroplane, locomotive electric train and a shipping scene as the background. To avoid any possibility of fraud, the Bank of Canada has issued a descripâ€" tion of their new bills. What They Look Like The one dollar note is green, has a portrait of King George on the face and an allegorical figure representing agriculture on the reverse. As all the one and two dollar bills in the country are now issued by the Doâ€" minion of Canada and will after March 11 be issued by the Bank of Canada, the old ones and twos will rapidly disâ€" appear to be replaced by the smaller notes. The notes of higher value as 10‘s, 20‘s and 50‘s will be :s their way about the cou will still be the chartert to supply the need there The new bills are six inches long and just under three inches wide. The notes at present used by the Dominion of Canada and most of the chartered banks are seven inches long by a little more than three and a quarter inches wide. One thing is certainâ€"there‘s going to ‘be a big mixâ€"up of little!«"bills and big bills in Mr. Citizen‘s pgcket for a long time. The chartered/banks have not made known any Antention of changing the size of thait notes and as they will continue to circulate large amounts of currency, people will have quite a timg separating the two sizes. Here is the way they compare in sizeâ€" New Bank of Canada Bills ' Expected Here Soon Announcement was made late last week by Bank of Canada officials that the new notes were to make their first appearance March l1th,, just a week from toâ€"day.

One point on which it is expected there will be some discussion in the near future is the price allowed the chartered banks for gold held by the Dominion of Canada in trust for the banks and against which their currency has besn issued.‘ Now, since the charâ€" tered banks have been forced by legislaâ€" tion to withdraw a proportion of theif bills, the government will take over the spare gold and use it to back Bank of Canada notes. The government offers to buy the gold at $20.67 an ounce, but the banks claim a price nearer $35 an ounce for it. ° Latest Bank of Canada reports indiâ€" cate that the Dominion of Canada will withdraw all one dollar, two dollar and five dollar notes from circulation as soon as they can be gathered in after March 11. $5 bills from circulation when the Bank of Canada opens and allow the new bank‘s ‘"Prince of Wales" notes to take their place.
