In a recent address at a political meeting at Rouyn Hon. Paul Leduc, Minister of Mines to: the province of Ontario, is quoted as saying:â€" Lne provmce OI untario. is quoted as saying:â€" “The mining industry has helped to alleviate the burden of unemployment relief in Ontario and Quebec. The only ray of hope in our economic crisis comes from the tremendous progress of our mining industry, and Canada needs all the help that this industry can provide.” No thinking man will deny the truth of Hon- Mr. Leduc’s words, and because of this it seems surely the height-of folly to run the risk of “blot- ting out the only ray of hope in our economic crisis.” It should be fully realized that there is a limit to the taxation of mines. This limit seems to have been reached. It is all right for the thoughtless or the ignorant to talk at large about seizing some of the huge profits supposed to be made in mining ventures, but common sense should not be forgotten. Can anyone suggest any possible reason why men should venture their money in the mining industry with its ever-present danger of loss of the capital involved, if the burden of taxation is so high as to prevent possibility of any money being made even when the mine wins through to successful production. The high taxa- tion of the mining industry has had the effect of stopping’ the opening of new mines. That is un- doubted. Taxation has not killed the successful mines, but it has had serious effect even there. On account of the premium on gold, producing mines have been able to show profits, despite the load of taxation. This fact has blinded many to the truth that despite all appearances the country is a serious loser through the heavy taxation of the mines. Recently at a public meeting one mine manager explained the situation by pointing out that every additional dollar of taxation meant that a higher grade of gold had to be mined, and that this meant that large bodies of low-grade ore had to be'left in the ground to the general loss of the country. If taxation were less burdensome this lower-grade ore could be mined and the coun- try greatly enriched as a consequence. What the province or the Dominion gains in taxation money is but a pittance to the wealth that would be added from the mining of ore now impossible to handle because of the burden of taxes- Would it not be better policy to ease the taxation, encourage the industry, and have additional men employed with the consequent benefit to business and industry that was referred to by Hon. Mr. Leduc? There is an old saying about “killing the goose that lays the golden egg.” Further taxation of the mines would appear to be equally poor policy. At the presentmoment there are reports from Toronto to the effect that the gold mines of the province are to be loaded with an additional three million dollars of taxes to force a balancing of the pro- vincial budget. Such a plan will prove a serious injury to the North and to all Ontario. There is at present a great deal of idle money that might be tempted to investment in the mining industry of the North. Every new mining venture would help further to “alleviate the burden of unemploy- ment relief in Ontario.” It would help business and industry in general. It would make new op- portunities for all lines of activity. If all the minâ€" ing wealth of Ontario could be developed, there would be no depression, no crisis, for Canada. There would be enough people able to pay taxes to keep taxation from being too burdensome to any. It is to be hoped that the Ontario Government will not defeat its own ends by attempting to take a short cut in this matter of taxation. when the sup- port and encouragement of a basic industry would assure so much better results.

There are further reports that an investigation is to be held by the council or the police committee with a view to censuring the police for this par- ticular raid. If there is anything to this report the investigation should be a public one and the names of the owners of the property in question be disclosed. as well as the other facts in the case from its beginning to the present time. As one town councillor so often said in regard to another casezâ€"“The public are entitled to know. It is the public’s money.” The present chief of police and all his staff have given excellent service. The men on the force from the chief down to the newest recruit are men of character and standingâ€"a credit to the town. They hold the regard of all good citizens. and have won the enmity of those who would make a busiâ€" ness of evading the law. Because of this the police should have the support of all good citizens, andl it is the duty of all good citizens to see‘ that they have this support. prosecution. The raid appeared to be a legal and normal one in every way, similar to the many that the authorities find necessary in the eniorcement of the law. It should be noted and remembered that such raids are not made lightly or carelessly by the present police force. It should also be not- ed and remembered that law enforcement will be made impossible in such cases if the authorities are debarred from exercising the powers conferred an them by law. The accused already have enough oeneflts without adding others that will prevent Mrs. Sanger, the noted exponent of birth control, is quoted as saying that she is going to India to teach and preach birth control there. Now, if only Norman Angeli and some more of the same kind would only go over to Italy, Russia. Germany and so on, and preach peace and disarmament, it would be well, indeed. King Haile Selassie, of Ethiopia, calls himself the “Lion of Judah.” If he is half as good a man as some of the Lions of Schumacher and Timmins. he’ll win the war. A local gentleman the other day was giving a friend the home address of another friend who lives in Toronto. The local gentleman said, “I have it right here in my notebook,” and he pulled out his liquor permit. The address was there all right. So were other addresses and various notes of one kind or another. The local gentleman evi- dently uses the blank pages at the back and front of the liquor permit as a memorandum book'. “I often forget my notebook,” he said, “but I never forget to keep my permit in my pocket.” There is a hint here to the Liquor Control Board. By put- ting a better cover on the permit and adding a few more blank pages they could add very considerably to the usefulness of the liquor permit.

An ailing young wo- man kept up a continual interruption of the meet- ing here addressed by Hon. W. A. Gordon. On Fri- day night which Jos. A. Bradette, M.P., was scoring the disloyal reds, a communist attempted to intro- duce the old game of disturbance. Mr. Bradette proved too much for the fellow, however. Mr- Bradette concluded his own sentence without pay- ing any attention to the man calling the question. Then he turned to the interrupter and asked him to repeat his question. There was no response and despite repeated requests from Mr. Bradette, the communist would not reveal himself, knowing that he would get a fair deal and a fair answerâ€"and these are the last things that communists desire. Father Coughlin, of Detroit, is said to have orâ€" ganized a new club “to teach children to hate com- munism. but to love communists.” If this new club works successfully, he should add still another There is a report to the effect that Hon. Dr. Croll is negotiating with Mary Pickford for the appear- ance of the Dionne quintuplets in a picture to be produced by the former film star.

Rud- yard Kipling‘s “Jungle Books" gave birth to the idea and it is now univer- sally recognized that there is no finer group to which a boy can belong.

Timber Sold in Past- There has been considerable discus- sion aroused by the report that timber leases were being offered for sale in the Temagami Reserve. Many felt that there was danger in such a policy and that one of the most popular and de- sirable of public parks and health re- sorts was being prejudiced by such a plan. In answer to these criticisms Hon. Peter Hesnan, Minister of Lands and Forests, replies to the effect that such leases have been made under past ad- ministrations. that the public interests are to be well guarded in the matter, and that as a matter of fact there are sections of the timber concern-ed that'must‘ either be cut down or rot. While taking precautions to preserve the beautiful shore line of Lake Te- magami, tenders have been called ‘by the Department of Lands and Forets for cutting the red and white pine and spruce timber on two important berths in the Temagami Forest Reserve. The first comprises the east half of Briggs township, lying north of the northeast arm of Temagami lake. thence south to the tip of Beaver lake. along the north shore of Beaver lake, and connecting with the creek be- tween Beaver and Tetapaga lake. This parcel has an area of about five square miles. Safeguard Lakn It is estimated that there are 11,500,- 000 feet B.M. white pine; 2,700,000 feet B.M. red pine, and 1,100,000 spruce above 10 feet on the property. Mini- mum bonus and Crown dues are quoted. Timber must be cut by the end of April. 1937. and operations must be un- dertaken during the coming season. No lumber camp or buildings may be erected along the shores of Temagami lake and no land will be cleared for skidways along Temagami lake. Trees standing between the shore- line of Temagami lake and the top of the first ridge are reserved unless marked to be cut by a departmental representative. Trees within 300 feet of portages and the shoreline of inland lakes are re- served. A penalty of $25 per tree will be imposed for each tree cut from the reserved area.
