Use of the seedâ€"cleaning machinery of the Demonstration Farm throughout the district for the past two years at a fair charge has been of material pssistance, Mr. Nixon said.

Nixon urged the government to provide the mining industry of the North with betâ€" ter roads and improved regulations. "Foster the mining industry in every legitimate way, and handsome returns will be the result," he declared Toronâ€" to‘s two billion dollar increase in busiâ€" ness over that of Montreal for 1936, gould be directly attributed to the great mining industry of the North, Mr. Nixon said. Greater and more constructive leaâ€" gership in the field of agricultural deâ€" velopment was urged by the member for Temiskaming. "I congratulate the Minister of Agriculture on the interest he has shown in the marketing probilem of the north." he went on. "The conâ€" Mr. Nixon urged the minister of Highway to give serious consideration of the granting of a shortâ€"term fee to those who drive motor vehicles onl‘v six or seven months of the year. "It may not seem consistent to be asking for greater expenditures on roads and at the same time urging a reduction in motor fees, but I do not think a man in the North Country should be required to pay a full year‘s license for the priviâ€" lege of driving his car for only part of lthe yvear," he said. "Who can tell when the vigorous cliâ€" mate and bracing air of the north may again ring the bell on a similar or even greater achievment," he said, smiling. "There might. even be hope for some of the bachelors of this House could we induce them to come north and remain long enough."

For 16 weeks in the summer of 1935 there were 600 motor vehicles per day on the highway north of North Bay, most of this trafâ€" fic on its wity to Kirkland Lake, Timâ€" mins and intervening points, and furâ€" ther on to Cochrane and Kapuskasing. We do not agree that in this highly motorized age we should have to wait indefinitely for hard surfaced roads." Congratulating the Minister of Highâ€" ways on the interest already shown in the road problem of Northern Ontario, Mr, Nixon said that he hoped proper provision would be made in the estiâ€" mates of this year "for real permanent road improvement in the North." He said he was referring particularly to the main travelled road where traffic is heavy, but quickly added that "adeâ€" quate provision must also be made for improving settlers‘ roads." Opposition to any further expendiâ€" ture of public funds on any transâ€"Canâ€" ada highway work "until we have perâ€" manently improved the main roads or highways between the nowâ€"existing centres of population" was expressed in Mr. Nixon‘s address. In last Thursday‘s Advance brief reâ€" ference was made to an address in the Legislature by W. G. Nixon, member in the Ontario Legislature for Temisâ€" kaming. The address was of such value to the cause of the North that The Adâ€" vance feels that further publicity for it is fitting, and so gives herewith a more extended summary of the address than could be given last issue: Construction of better main highways and improvement of lateral and settâ€" lers‘ roadsâ€"work instead of relief for Northern Ontario settlersâ€"expansion of the mining and agricultural developâ€" ments of Northern Ontarioâ€"these were the highlights of a reply to the Speech from the Throne made last week in the Ontario Legislature by W.

Mr. Nixon urged that a Rehabilitation Pund be established to replace the Diâ€" rect Relief Fund. ‘"Use the fiind in "I say, Mr. Speaker, that there is the greatest necessity of substituting proâ€" dictiveâ€"work for idleness on relief, so that the good name of North establishâ€" ed by the early and subsequent settlers be maintained. I am not suggesting a large expenditure of public funds for the purpose, but rather a carefullyâ€" thought out plan of basic developâ€" ment that will give a fair return to the settler during the period required for him to become selfâ€"sustainingâ€"a reaâ€" sonable amount of work and pay rather than relief and idleness. It is folly to am opposed to a continuance of the present policy, excepting where noâ€" thing else can be done," he said. "I most urgently suggest that where settâ€" lers must have financial assistance they be required to return_â€"work for such assistance. My keenest interest is in seeing something done to put settlers on a selfâ€"sustaining basis to give them encouragement to become more selfâ€" reliant, to restore in many instances a brokenâ€"down morale. _ __*"I am convinced," he said, "that they would act as a stimulus to more and better crop and liveâ€"stock production and surely would provide a facility badly needed in many areas." Here again, the Dominion governâ€" ’ment, should lend a hand, Mr. Nixon said. "I am not suggesting that the {govemment should actually go into the business, but rather should give finanâ€" cial assistance and leadership in finding a solution to the problem." To an interested House Mr. Nixon described how Northern Ontario farâ€" mers had carried off many prizes at agricultural fairs when they had exhiâ€" bited their products. A farmer north of Cochrane last year produced 2600 bags of potatoesâ€""some fertilizer and good cultivation did the trick," Mr. Nixon said. He urged that attempts be made to get settlers off relief and "on to a higher moral plane where they shall have a broader outliook, a greater hope for the future, not only for themsclvesi but for their families. | I am opposed to a continuance of : effective weed control measures can be inaugurated in this way, he affrmed.

L. S. Weldon Winner of Leonard Medal Deceased, with his family, came to Canada in 1930. His employment had been small until the last ten months, but his willing heart and untiring efâ€" forts to secure a steady position were rewarded, though it proved unfortunâ€" ately that it was to be only for a brief period. He will be remembered by his many friends and relatives and by his comrades of the Canadian Legion as a fine type of citizen and man.
