On the other hand it shows that the government believes that the miring industry in all its branches can make an extremely Mportant contriâ€" bution to the winning offthe war. Taxes are raised, but that was to be expected, and taxes on the mining inâ€" dustry are no greater than those upon other industries, and they are no greatâ€" er upon mining. individuals than they are upon other incomeâ€"making persons in Canada. No mining man cdn quarâ€" rel with this situation. We are sure that Government Recognizes Value of Mining Industry ~The Northern Miner is responsible for the following:â€" we express the feeling of all mining men when we say that they are glad to be able to assist the country in this time of stress, and when, in fact, its very existence is in peril. The extra imposts are being fairly and squarely imposed and we have no doubt that in cases where unfairness might be inâ€" volved that special considerations will be taken into account. Mines are to receive the current price of gold, which is around $37â€"$38 an ounce. There have been rumours that they would be deprived of part of this hicher price but the whole history of the present Canadian Government, its whole attitude toward the gold mines, should have assured anyone that a just and proper policy would be followed. If anyone wanted further assurance that the higher price of gold was natural thing all they would need to do would be to look at the Bank of Canada‘s acâ€" himself a slacker. tion in repricing the nNaAllIONDal . stock. The Canadian Government wishes to encourage the fullest possible producâ€" tion of gold and all other metals and minerals, including iron, in Canada. Mining men can do no better than fall in step with Canada‘s governmental ideas and proceed with prospecting, exploration, deve‘lopment, and producâ€" tion to the fullest of their ener;ies. This is a time for energetic action, and not for lying down on the job, and any man who fails to do his utmost can call Hightlights and â€" Sidelights (Continued from Page One) with currency, J. P. Bell, former _ manâ€" agerâ€"inâ€"chief of the Canadian Bank of Commerce, predicted last week when he addressed delegates to the fifteenth annual convention of the Canadian Purchasin: Agents‘ Association at the Royal Connaught Hotel at Hamilton.

The Rumaniall last week made a good Job of it, the only members of the Iron Guard now remaining alive being a few of: the leaders who were able to escape to Gerâ€" man territory after the crime of last week. Before they were executed the astassins of Premier Calinescu revealed the details of the plot against the preâ€" mier‘s life. _ The head of the plot was a lawyer named Dumitrescu, who is alâ€" leged to have been paid a large sum of money for his part in the plot against Rumania. Police are ‘now searching for the source of the money spent by Dumitrescu in his nefarious work.

The Italian press makes the naive surgestion that as Britain and France went to war over Poland, and as Poland has been wiped out: there is no sense in any further fightâ€" ing about a nation that no longer exâ€" ists. . The answer to this, as given by London, England, newspapers, is that Poland is still very much alive, as the Germans are finding out to their sad cost, and that Britain and France inâ€" tend to carry on the war to its logical conclusionâ€"that defeat of Nazis and the freedom of Poland.
