TIMMINS, ONTAR1IO. Members Canadian Weekly Newspaper Amociation; Onlarioâ€" ~~Quebec Newspaper Association; Class "A" Weekl!y Group OFPICE 26â€"â€"â€"â€" PHONES â€"â€"â€"â€"RESIDENCE 70 Published Every Monday and Thursday by: GEO. LAKE, Owner and Publisher Subscription Rates: Oanadaâ€"$2.00 Per Year United Statesâ€"$3.00 Per Year Cko Hormupine Abusnre Premier Hepburn recently went out of his way to thank his Conservative friends for not attemptâ€" ing to make political capital of his connection with the Oshawa strike and his attitude toward the foreign C.I.O.â€"the Committee for Industrial Organization. It is to be hoped that the Conserâ€" vatives will continue to win the approval of Preâ€" mier Hepburn in this matter, for, though it appears easy to make capital against the Premier and his party in the matter, the result of anything likel | that would not be in the true interests of the workâ€" ers or of the country. Premier Hepburn is very{ right when he says that there is nothing political in the questionâ€"that is so far as Canada is conâ€" cerned. As a matter of fact the difficulty at Oshawa is wholly of political significance, but it is; politics completely apart from Canadaâ€"a political question originating in the United States and foreign in essence to this country. It is well to remember that the Oshawa strike at present is. not a matter of wages or hours or conditions. Any apparent grievances the men might have in these lines at Oshawa have been‘taken away by Hon. Mr. Hepburn himself. To him belongs the credit of negotiations with the General Motors Company. following which he was able to say to the strikers, in effect:â€""What you have asked in the way of wage adjustments or improved conditions, I am. authorized to say will be granted." What more could the workers ask? What they did ask was that a foreign union should be recognized. Hon. Mr. Croll and Hon. Mr. Roebuck took the attitude that the men had the right to organize and the implied right to select any union they wished. That is true enough, so far as it goes. It makes good propaganda perhaps. But shorn of its chicanery, the fact remains that Canadians have no right to affiliate themselves with a foreign union whose basic methods are unlawful in Canada. As a matâ€" ter of fact, the present difficulty would have been avoided if the Dominion Government had not reâ€" pealed Section 98 of the Criminal Code. That section, while having no concern with freedom of speech (as pretended by some), did prevent the activities of illegal organizations based on violence and the threat of violence. The C.I.O. achieved its United States successes through violence and the threat of violence. Because the organization was allowed to defy the law in the United States, its methods may have a certain legal standing in that country, but the whole C.I.O. methods and procedâ€" ure are illegal in Cahada. This is the answer to those who say that United States organizations have previously interfered in Canadian industrial disputes and so should not be stopped on this ocâ€" casion. If reference is made by this to the Ameriâ€" can Federation of Labour, the difference between the two cases should be apparent. Both in Canada and the United States the American Federation of Labour is recognized as a lawful and lawâ€"abiding organization. Canadian unions have been affiliatâ€" ed for years with the American Federation of Labour and have received material benefits from that organization. On several occasions officials of the American Federation of Labour have come to Canada to assist in the settlement of strikes or threatened strikes, and their methods have never transgressed Canadian law. The American Federation of Labour has always been opposed to violence and lawlessness. Indeed, it is this fact that was indirectly responsible for the creation of the CILO. The organizers of the C.IL.O. were forâ€" merly connected with the A.F.L., but found the methods of that organization not radical enough for their purposes, with the result that a break occurred and John L. Lewis, after attempting to gain control of the A.F.L., and losing out in that. brganized the new group of unions under the name of the Committee for Industrial Organization. It has not been denied that the Lewis organization contributed $500,000 to President Roosevelt‘s camâ€" paign fund, so, perhaps, the people in general in the United States are not surprised that Lewis in a short space of time has been able to secure imâ€" mense power in some industries through the use of methods that previously were considered illegal, but that the lawlessness in this case failed to bring down punishment from the Federal authorities. Canadians, however, need not be particularly conâ€" cerned with the differences between labour leadâ€" ers in the United States. That is a matter for the people of the United States to deal with. All in Canada, however, are deeply concerned to avoid 4awâ€"defiance in this country. The safety of the workerâ€"no less than that of the employerâ€"deâ€" pends upon the law and its impartial observance and enforcement. Before the Oshawa strike deâ€" veloped, both Premier Hepburn and Hon. Mr. Laâ€" pointe, Dominion Minister of Justice, announced that "sitâ€"down strikes" and other methods of the GH.O were distinctly and definitely illegal in this country. The law was plain upon the matter, and men m no Dublic demand for any change in the «e t 0# 2 00 _ e 2 % t Timmins, Ont., Monday, April 19th, 1957 NOT A POLITICAL MATT Premier Hepburn was fully justified in refusing to deal with an organization that was so illegal in its basic principles and pracâ€" tice. Indeed, as a lawâ€"abiding citizen of Canada, he could take no other course. It may be that Premier Hepburn has made political difficulties for himself and his party by his unequivocal atâ€" titude in the matter, but at least it should be adâ€" mitted by all that he took the right course, the brave course, the only course for a lawâ€"abiding Canadian, and because of this deserves the support of all who favour Canadian law and procedure. There should be very general support given the Timmins Horticultural Society in its plans for the beautifying of Timmins this year. The Society plans to plant several hundred trees on some of the main streets of the town as well as following up the work it has carried on for several years in the way of encouraging the improvement of the appearance of the town and its homes and streets. There should also be general approval of the acâ€" tion of the town council in promising financial assistance for the work of treeâ€"planting. Old and new citizens of Timmins are alike pleased and proud of the progress â€"and the prosperity of the town. It is well indeed, however, to remember that there is more than the material to life. It is beauty that gives a savour to lifeâ€"makes life worth living. There is reason for pride and satisfaction in the growth of Timminsâ€"in the fact that it is a city of homesâ€"in the conveniences and modern touches added from day to day to the town. If to all this may be added the touch of beauty and of nature given by trees, then Timmins will be adâ€" vantaged in notable way. It was a former Minisâ€" ter of Northern Development who once criticized Timmins for its lack of natural beauty. He sugâ€" gested that a town that would spend so freely for education and other things seemed sadly behind in the matter of beautification. He was shown the many beautiful lawns and gardens in town and revised his Criticism to some extent. "But you need trees for shade and ‘beauty in your town," he insisted. Well, this year, thanks to the Horticulâ€" tural Society, to whom also much measure Of apâ€" preciation is due for the lawns and gardens and flowers that have adorned Timmins in other years, there will be trees also on the streets to add to the appearance of the greatest town of the North. It seems particularly appropriate that this improveâ€" ment will be started before Timmins celebrates this year its twentyâ€"fifth anniversary. W. O. Langdon, president of the Timmins board of trade, some weeks ago urged treeâ€"planting, as a fitting form of celebration of this Coronation year. The work of the Horticultural Society will meet this wish of Mr. Langdon‘s and prove in the years to come a notable souvenir of this Coronation year. The Advance is anxious that the enterprise and public spirit of the Horticultural Society should be fully recognized and appreciated at its worth. One way to do thisâ€"the way that will please the members of the Society the mostâ€"is for all to see that the trees to be planted this spring are given the greatest possible protection and SOo allowed chance to grow and flourish and add to the beauty and appearance of the town. This is a way in which all may helpâ€"not only by being careful themselves not to injure the growing trees, but also by seeing that the thoughtless or the vicious are not allowed to injure the trees. A heading in the Val D‘Orâ€"Lamagque News last week says: "Provincial ‘Police Here for Good." Hope the provincial police never go to al D‘Or for anything else. Toronto has taken nearly everything possible from the Northâ€"taken the gold, the silver, the wealth of the forestâ€"stolen hockey playersâ€" filched baseball artistsâ€"grabbed the taxes. But the limit was reached last week when the mayor and council of Toronto proposed to take away the Dionne quintuplets. The Toronto mayor and council suggested that Casa Loma, the $1,700,000 castle built by Sir Henry Pellett as a residence, and later falling to the ownership of the city for arrears of taxes should be opened up as a winter home and the Dionne quintuplets installed thereâ€" in as a tourist attraction. Toronto had it all figured out. The Dionne quintuplets would only occupy a small part of the mansion and the rest of the building would be rented to shops, restaurâ€" ants, film companies, and so on. Dr. A. R. Dafoe, one of the guardians of the quintuplets and the medical man credited with the fact that the five famous youngsters are alive toâ€"day, was emphatic in condemning the latest Toronto form Of approâ€" priation. Dr. Dafoe said that the Dionne quintuâ€" plets were Northern babies, and should remain in the North. He.resented the idea that they were considered as a form of "peep show," as he phrasâ€" ed it, and repeated his statement that so far as he was concerned they would not be moved anywhere in the South to be used as a sort of circus attracâ€" tion. He added the opinion that the North was a much healthier place to live than Toronto. It is not likely, howsover, that Toronto will drop the idea of stealing the quintuplets from the North. If Toronto has its way all that will be leff in the North will be bad roads and high taxes. It is from things like these that Toronto gained its title of "Hogâ€"Town." The Advance advises Sault Ste. Marie to guard its few remaining wolves. ‘GRAVEL AND SANDâ€"AND PLACER Premier Hepburn is likely to decide, like other THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE. TIMMINS, ONTARIO J. P.

Jackâ€" lin, 5 Messines avenue, on April 12â€"â€"a It‘s just one thing after another for the war in Spain. At present it‘s the Oshawa strike that is crowding the Spanish conflict off the front pages of the newspapers. In addressing a group of Oshawa strikers last week Prof. Eric Havelock, of Victoria University, is credited with suggesting that the attitude of the Ontario Government to the Oshawa strike might be influenced by the shares or stock which the premier and members of his cabinet held in the General Motgrs Company. Premier Hepburn made an indignant denial of the improper suggesâ€" tion. *"*Neither I nor any member of my governâ€" ment,‘" he said, "hold a single cent of shares or stock in General Motors, or any of its subsidiaries. I have made a careful check, and my statement is correct.‘" The Hepburn government is not the first to suffer from reckless false statements, or despicable insinuations. Such false charges are all too common. Premier Hepburn and his assoâ€" ciates should now be able to realize how other " I never knew OPTICAL COMPANY â€" 14 Pine St. N.

Carson, Supt. Children‘s Aid, Timmins, Ont WOOD FOR SALE government heads have felt when unfounded charges were made upon their integrity. In the past there has been too much of that sort of thing. ‘The Hepburn Government would be doing a public service if the university professor were called very strictly to account. If he made the charge or inâ€" sinuated anything to the same effect he should be deat with as a scandalâ€"monger, unless he Ccan show that he had grounds for the’stat‘.ements made. If he was misreported, the newspaper or newsâ€" papers responsible should be held up to the public scorn deserved. In any case the facts should be brought out.

Inâ€" stead of the "bright lights" it is going to offer the "coloured lights." The enthusiasm with which the Home Improveâ€" ment Plan is being accepted by all who have studied it bids fair to mean the accomplishment of the two main purposes of the planâ€"the creation of a very considerable amount of employment, and the improvement of a large number of Canadian homes.

Sgt. A. Hammond Buried on Thursday The funeral took place on Thursday afternoon of Sgt. A. Hammond, who died in St. Mary‘s hospital on Tuesday last. The late A. Hammond had a notable army career. He was a fullâ€"time Imperial and saw long service in India. He reâ€"enlisted during the Great War in the 10 th Batt. Duke of Cornwall‘s Light Infantry, and had the rank of Signal Sergeant. After two years of active serâ€" vice with the battalion in France, he was transferred to the Abseville school of Signal instruction, where many Imâ€" perials and Cana@dian signallers had many pleasant lectures with him. Since coming to Timmins the late Sgt. Hammond made many friends among the returned men. In adversity he fought with a smile. In his various labours all who knew him were taken with his happy disposition. Especially was this true in his capacity as steâ€" ward of the Legion Club where he made many friends. The funeral was largely attended by Legion members, close to 150 marching in the funeral procession which was led by the Porcupine District Pipe Band. Rev. R. S. Cushing conducted the fuâ€" neral service at St. Matthew‘s church and interment was made in the Legion plot at the Timmins cemetery. Buglers Pierce and Roberts sounded the "Last Post" ard "Reveille." His son a resiâ€" dent of Schumacher was the only relaâ€" tive present. The burial was carried out by the Legion and with full Legion honours. Eight Imperial veterans acted as pallbearers. Venetian blinds were hung and no curtains used. The furniture, which was mnot new, was of maple, with upholstery in a reddish orange, yellow and blue. Handâ€"woven hooked rugs were used on the floor.
