Such an organiâ€" zation, it is said,‘ will fill a longâ€"felt need to tackle the probiems of transâ€" portation, communication, â€" labours, roads, taxaticn, workmen‘s compensaâ€" tion and gensral matters affecting the welfare of the mining industry, and in general occupy a voice in Quebec which the business has won by its advance. At this time of year there is no other cause to which donations may be made that will serve the community and Canada to a bett*r end.

There is the story of a complete new slate, another says that some of the agitating element are going chosen by the Legion. Before closing this it might be well to remind the people of the Porcupine that they may expect a call from the Legion to assist n raising the money. Look at the painting first, then send in your donaâ€" tion. Ten years is not a long time, ut when the p:riod is measured by the amount of good that has been azscomâ€" plished by the Canadian L»gion, it makes one feel more than just a littl» proud that he is a member of the orâ€" ganization. On Mconday, November 25th, the Canadian Lâ€"zion celebrates | its tenth birthday. It was on the 25th \ day of November. 1925, that the 12 \Field Marshal Earl Haig of Bemersyds, f founder of the British Legion delivered | these stirring words: "Get tog:ther, | pull together, work for one another. | Your future work is not for any party ?nor for any section of your country, but for your King, your Dominion and |your Empire"‘ Much has been done | since that day. The Legion has grown and is still growing. There are lots of ,'ex-servic;men still looking over the fence. Even on Armistice Day in Timâ€" mins, some known to many as biing in | France during the Great War stood on f the sidewalk to watch about 180 of their |olq comrades march past. We cannot lforce them to join but perhaps by | pointing to some of th: striking examâ€" | ples of good which has been done for !the returned soldier they might reâ€" |consider their previous and | Join up with the present membsers. Soms | of the chief items are given herewith: Major Achievements | ! In simple language a brief resume of ! some of the major legislative and coâ€" irelated activities in which the Legion | has prominently participated is here ‘attempted: 1. The establishment by the Dominâ€" lon Government of special committeos of parliamcnt in the years 1928 and g1930, to which committees comprehenâ€" i sive representations were made by § the Canadian Legion. There are a great many more but the above will serve to show every one interested in the w:ilfare of the returnâ€" ed men that the Canadian Legion is fulfilling promises and pledges made. Those not yet members, but who are thinking of joining, will surely find good points among those listed. That Armistice Pay Appreal On November 1l1th, 1935, Austin Neame, president of the Timmins branch of the Canadian Legion made an earnest appzal to the citizens to supâ€" port the forthcoming memorial fund. It had been expected that a beautiful pastel painting of the memorial which has been chosen would have arrived here in timg for displdy before the anâ€" nual service, but unfortunately this was not the case. This week it was my pleasure to receive a letter from Washâ€" ington, D.C., U.S.A., where the Arlingâ€" ton Mansoleum is situated and the tomb of the "Unknown Soldier‘" is situâ€" ated. This beautiful tribute of the United States is built of the same marâ€" ble which it is expected the new meâ€" morial for the Porcupine will built of. namelyâ€"Vermont Marble. The letter states "After 15 years of standing in all kinds of weather the memorial stands out in a whiteness of snow. Not a dark stain was noticed after a comâ€" plete inspection. It was as if the memorial had just been newly built. If as you say the Timmins memorial is to be built of this marble, I can only assure you that its beauty will be an everlasting tribute to those who are to be remembered." This will show those who are sponsoring the new memorial that the Legion‘s choice of Vermont marble will not have been in vain. It seems by general opinion, that what is wanted is somcthing, not big or masâ€" sive in construction or design, but rather a monument more defining the spirit of remembrance. Such an inâ€" terpretation is given in the memorial 13. The passing of an amendment to the Armistice Day Act providing for the cbservance of November the 1l1th, each year, as a holiday to be known as "Remembrance Day." There are a great many more but 2.

The establishment of the Veterans‘ FPureau. 7. Provision for hearing bodiss to make decisions in the field. 8. The passing of the "benefit of the doubt" clause. 9.

The Gillies airport will also stop work at the end of the month. Two runways ar practically completed, one seeded and the other levelled. One runway at Reay is sseded while the other will be cormmpleted by freezeâ€" up time. Planes have been landing there since August. All work is finished at the South River airport. Two 300â€"foot runways and an additional wide area are seeded. Modern Hargar The hargar at Emsdale is modern in every way, and will be wellâ€"equipped to give shelter and service to planes. Operations at Kapuskasing are also in an advanced stage. The hangar and radio beacon are ready for the finishâ€" ing touches. Living quarters will be firished by the end of the month. The majcrity of landing fislds are rapidly nearing ccmpletion. Only two airports, Tudkope and Round Lake, are ncw incapable of allowing ‘planes to land. The work at Tudhope has been impeded somewhat th:s year because of unfavourable wsather, heavy rains making it rather difficult to make headway in the clayâ€"like soil. Inspect Camps â€"Mr. McGee arfd Squadron Leader J. H. ~Tudhope, of the Civil Aviation Deâ€" partment, Ottawa, recently made an aerial inspsction of the camps in the Northern Ontario district, and found langding facilities excellent at the maâ€" pority of the airports. A number of the camps will close in Ncvember and Decemser for the winter mconths. At Emsdale, dsstined to be a junction pcint on the proposed transâ€"Canada airway route, splendid progress has been made. The hangar, radio beacon and quarters for the permanent staff are just about completed, and the finâ€" isking touchss will be put on before December 15. Work which is now nearâ€" ing completion does not include the inâ€" stallation of electrical services or the bringing in of equipinment for the perâ€" manent staff. Three Runways Seeded Work at Diver will be suspended for the wirtsr months Novemser 30, Mr McGee said. Preliminary developmen there is practically finished. Three runâ€" ways are seeded, while a fourth will be graded this Fry The Aavance Want Advertisements The chain of airports being built across Cana@da is making good proâ€" gress according to all reports. The amâ€" bitious plan is to have a complete chain of airports so that airships will have complete facilities across the Dominion. The operations this year in regard to the construction of landing places and other accommodation for airships has result@gq in the fact that it is now posâ€" sible for aeroplanes to land at, seven airports in Northern Ontario. This inâ€" formation was given out some days ago at North Bay in an interview with G. L. McGee, of the Dept. of National Deâ€" fence, and superintendent for this part of the North for the airport construcâ€" tion. Mr. McGee said that landings may be made now at Reay, South River, Emsdale, Diver, Gillies Depot, Porquis Jurction and Kapuskasing.

A solution to the problem can be found, Mr. Rowlandson claims, in reâ€" duced freight tariffs. "By reducing our freight rates we could treble our exâ€" ports and imports from Northern Onâ€" taic.

In a letter received recently from the Ontario Paper Company, with head ofâ€" fices at Montreal, Mr. Rowlandson was informed that the company is "not in th> market for rough pulpwood.‘"‘ The letter explained that existing freight rates are prohibitive, and do not permit the company to land the wood at their mill at a reasonable price. This example of exorbitant rates, says The Nugget, is cited by Mr. Rowâ€" landson as one of the reasons why many of the residents of Northern Onâ€" tario are dependent on public assisâ€" tance.
