Same with Governments, especially in times of war, when every penny, every dollar, every natural resource sayâ€" ed, means just that much withheld from the corner store. In such times, all resources must be husbanded jealously to imeet unavoidable war expenditures. And yet, whether Canadians like it or not, their Government is running to the corner store continually to the tune of tens of millions dollars each year, for foreign goods that could, with exâ€" ercise of ordinary common sense, be raised in Canada‘s own unlimited backvard. § The order suggests that the Governâ€" ment is mopping up in a direction that cannot result in any material increase in medium of exchange; in fact, as we view it, it is another instance of strainâ€" ing after gnats. In 1938 Canada consumed 27,260,274 tons of coal, worth $79,738,118, of which 14,247,783 tons, worth $43,912,204, was of domestic origin and 13,012491 tons, worth $33,825,914, came from Oother countries, very largely United States. These figures are from the Canada Year Book, which does not, however, give the breakdown of imports for the vyear.

Part 1 Part 2 15th January, 1940 * * %)} Foreign exchange regulations have _.llargely cut off the inflow of United é,States capital which has been such an t ‘|important factor in development of Canada‘s resources in the past. To |offset that loss it seems entirely logical that we should now see to it that every £ dollar possible be kept from trickling ;across the border, not that we have anything against the United States, but that the nation and the Empire be served to that last ounce of our econâ€" omic ability. | ~Until the Government turns its atâ€" |\ tention to these hbigger matters it will ‘be justly apen to the charge that it is wasting its substance at the United â€"*:.States corner grocery store, Dr. Josep Tructa, one time head of the department of surgery at Barceâ€" lona‘s General Hospital, and who now is in London, is the father of what may develop to be a new technique in the treatment of wounds. As the remnants of the Spanish Loyalist army fled ragged and footsore over the Pyrenees into France last year, 10,000 wounded stumbled along with them. Their broken, torn legs were supported in dirty, foulâ€"smelling plast=â€" er casts. French doctors, fearing deâ€" velopment of gas gangrene, began to amputate right and left. However, beâ€" fore they had lopped many limbs off they found, to their amazement, that cases of gangrene were very rare; that only a score of the soldiers‘ wounds had become infected and that no anâ€" tiseptics had been applied and that only thin gauze drains separated the torn fliesh of the men from the plaster. Recently the man who fathered this new technique had an address reprintâ€" ed in the British Medical Journal. All agreed that his "closed plaster cast" technique was revolutionary and that it might be widely used in the world war. Treating compound fractures caused by bullets, bombs or instruments of war, doctors aim to prevent infection and to immobilize the limb for best circulation and proper knitting of bones. Year Book we find that exports to Canâ€" ada for 1938 from United States reachâ€" ed a total of 11,456,718 tons, worth $31,â€" 505,9074, of which 9,561,000 tons was bituminous and 1,895,718 tons anthraâ€" cite, with average value of $2,75 per ton, based upon the official figures of the Canada Year Book. In the same year, Canada imported approximately $56 million of petroleum and its derivatives, against approximâ€" ately $59 million in 1937. â€" Domestic production in 1938 ran over $11 million. Tuus, Canada‘s foreign fuel bill in 1938 was nearly 55 per cent of her entire gold output. Now, if the Government wishes to accomplish something really worthwhile toward keeping money at home, here is the greatest chance offered. It may be too late to do much this year, as supâ€" plies have a.lready been delivered from abroad, but it is certainly not too late to prepare for next year. Figuring conservatively, Canada could, by the turn of a hand, save an outgo of at least $10 million a year by adopting measures that would increase domestic production of both these indispensable fuels. It is not argued that all coal imports could be stopped and domestic product substituted, but it is regpectfully sugâ€" gested that much of the influx could be dammed b)y an appeal to the patriâ€" otism of dealers and users. To make Canadians domesticâ€"fuel conscious, the Government might engage in a nationâ€" wide advertising campaign, and where dealers have agreed to handle the doâ€" mestic product their names might also be advertised to the world. In the case of oil, freight rates could be instituted that would permit the Alâ€" berta crude and its products to compete in the populous centres of the East. Here again, it is too late to do anything about it this winter season, but, in view of the general belief that war will be prolonged, storage facilitiee could be provided immediately at the Head of the Lakes, for movement when the seaâ€" son of navigation opens. With stcrage as a backlog against interruption to traffic, a constant supply, to the maxiâ€" mum productive ability of Turner Valâ€" ley, could be provided. There have been questions raised about the maximum productive capacity of the Valley, but our. informalion, from what we consider the best and. most reliable sources, places the present . potential at 86,000 barrels daily and productive ability, under the best andl most economic field practice, at around | 30,000 barrels daily, against a present | proâ€"ration of 12,000 barrels daily. On in these times of war. Such Governâ€" ment help would lead to heavier emâ€" ployment in mines and oil fields, add to the incomes of railway systems, and, above all, keep millions of dollars at home, thus strengthening Canada‘s economic position and contributing tremendously to her ability to keep her end up in this conflict. a yvearly basis, Turner Valley could probably supply for Eastern shipment around 10,000 barrels daily above daily demand for the Prairie markets, averâ€" aged at 20,000 barrels daily, an addiâ€" tional income of $10,000 a day for opetrâ€" ators, all taking the place of the same amount now leaving the country and providing needed capital for further drilling operations. What do you suppose Germany would do if her backyard offered such an opportunity? Think that over! Foreign exchange regulations have largely cut off the inflow of United States capital which has been such an Such policies, in both cases, would necessitate subventions, but since the nation owns one railway outright at a weekly loss of around $1 million, and appears to have the other transconâ€" tinental system almost in its lap, there can be no serious economic Oobjection To prevent infection Dr. Trueta mereâ€" THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO ‘ The Russianâ€"Finnish question will ‘not likely be decided before spring. The | Russians apparently cannot cope with ; the cold but, in the spring, Stalin and his overâ€"rated army will probably strike with all the ferocity of which they are capable. l The song "Oh Johnny, Oh Johnny, | Oh!" which is so popular at the presâ€" ien‘t time, was written in 1917 when , ragtime and not "jive" was the thing A Chicago tunesmith, Abe Olman, wrote the song and inside of a few months, 1,500,000 copies were sold. Then came i oblivion. ly snipped away all bits of bruised and dying fiesh which is good breeding grounds for germs. He used no antiâ€" septics in the belief that they kill not only germs but also livirg cells and do more harm than good. After the wound is trimmed he merely stuffed it with dry, sterile gauze and applied the plaster of Paris directly over the wound. One minor objection to the closed cast treatment, admitted by Dr. Trueta, was the "horrible stench." Although it is best to keep the original plaster in place until the limb heals (usually from six to eight weeks), the cast someâ€" times had to be changed when the smell became unbearable. All the warring nations of the world are getting ready for the spring. With the warm breezes and budding leaves will coms mechanized attacks, death, blood and slaughter. The Allied naâ€" tions seem to expect that Germany will launch an attack in the spring. "A terrific German attack by air, land and sea in which she (Germany) will use every weapon in her armoury," was predicted by the British Minister to the United States. Premier Daladier conferred long and late with his generals last week; Briâ€" tain called 2,000,000 more e men to the colours and Winston Churchill visited air force hbases. All these things were seen as steps to get ready for spring. "Ah to be in Europe now that spring is here." Quite likely many will be. Last winter a Chicago dance band leader was rummaging through a stack of old sheet music when he found a copy of "Oh Johnny, Oh Johnny, Oh" and gave it to his songstress, Bonnie Baker, to sing. Recordings were made and last week 350,000 copies of the sheet music and 350,000 records had been sold and the revived tune was edging the top seller "South of the Border‘"‘ out of the picture. Meanwhile, the ‘baud leader who made the discovery, Orrin Tucker, and his songstress, Bonnie Baker, movâ€" ed into bigâ€"time and Tucker was taking in more in royalties than "Oh Johnny. Oh Johnny, Oh" made in its first inâ€" carnation.

Previous to leaving Cornwall, Onâ€" tario, where he has been a leading member of the bar, His Honour Judge Rene Danis, resently appointed Judge of the District of Cochrane,â€"to succeed Judge J. B. T. Caron, who recently reâ€" signed on account of his health, was given a testimonial dinner by the people of the Cornwall district. The following is the report of the event as given in last week‘s Cornwall Freeâ€" holder:â€" A feature of the program was the presentation to Judge Danis of a beauâ€" tiful silver tea service, as a token from his wide circle of friends in CornwaAll. A native of Cornwall and a practising lawyer here since 1924, the newlyâ€" appointed judge has been active in municipal, social and sporting life of the community. County Judge Francis T. Costello acted as chairman of the gathering and warmly praised Judge Danis on his acceptance of the position, The banâ€" quet was arranged by a committee of men closely associated with Mr. Danis in business or sporting life, headed by Hugh Douglas. Making Sacrifice Judge Costello referred to the sacriâ€" fice which Judge Danis had made in accepting the position, pointing out he was leaving a lucrative law practice and the friends of a lifetime in moving to Cochrane. "Only a sense of duty has led him to accept the position." he said. Judge Costeilo said he had known the new appointee since he was a small boy, and spoke highly of his sense of nonor and ability. Speaking on behalf of the Bar Association and the people of Storâ€" mont, Lionel ‘Chevrier, K.C., MP., reâ€" marked the dinner had been arranged not only because of the high honor which had fallen on Judge Danis, but because of the true friendship he had won. He praised the work of the comâ€" mittee and Fred Lefebvre in arranging the banquet. "Judge Danis will live up to the high traditions of the Ontario bar," he said. "He takes with him the friendship of Cornwall and a foundation in dJaw dating back to his father." f Singular Honor Dr. A. J. Lalonde, a warm friend of the late Daniel Danis, father of Judge Danis, referred to the singular honotr that had fallen on the family which hnad two sons called to Holy Orders, two to the egal profession and now one of these to a judgeship. "It is a record of which any mother might be proud," he said. U Dr. Lalonde referred to Judge Danis interest and activities in municipal affairs and to his sporting interests. "I am sure the St. Lawrence River will miss him," he remarked, amid laughter The tea service was presented to the guest of honor by F. D. McLennan and Dr. J. V. Lally. Both spoke warmly of the new judge. % Judge Danis‘ Reply In expressing his appreciation, Judge Danis said the gift would always reâ€" mind him of his friends in Cornwall. ‘"Any goal I have achieved is due to my parents, who denied themselves the luxuires of life in order to give me a suitable education," he added. Judge Danis expressed his pleasure that the bangquet was presided over by Judge Costello, and was attended by members of the clergy, the magistrate, members of parliament and legislature for Storâ€" mont county, the mayor, the reeve of Cornwall township, and Dr. J. A. Talâ€" lon, his family doctor and one of his father‘s closest friends. He expressed also his warm thanks to the committee who made arrangements for .the banâ€" quet. Judge Danis‘ brilliant career at Ottawa University and Osgoode Hall were referred to by Magistrate P. C Bergeron. "If he follows in the footâ€" Doherty Roadhouse Co.

Stiles, president of the Law Association of the United Counties of Stormont, Dundas and Glengarry acted as chairman. He called upon Judge Costello, who made a few remarks in eulogy of Judge Danis, and upon J. G. Harkness, K.C., senior member of of the Cornwall bar. In a remiscent ‘vein, Mr. Harkness recalled occasions | wher the Law Association made preâ€" sentations to members honored in a similar way. The last occasion, said Mr. Harkness, was when Colonel Robert Smith, long a distinguished member of the Cornwall legal profession, was apâ€" pointed as judge of the Supreme Court of Ontario, later to be raised to the Supreme Court of Canada. An earlier event was on the appointment of James Leitch, K.C., as chairman of the Ontario Railway Board, Mr. Leitch also received later appomtmcnt to the judicial bench. steps of his father, there can doubt of his success," he said. Other speakers at the banquet were Mayor J. A. Phillips, Reove J. L. Mcâ€" Donald, Cornwall township; . F. B. Brownridge, ML.A., for Stormont, and Rev. Lorenzo Danis, of the staff of Ottawa University, brother of Judge Danis. 6 Counties‘ Law Society . Makes Presentation His Honor Judge F. T. Costello and all local barristers gathered in the law library of the Counties‘ Building, Thursday afternoon, to present a gift to His Honor Judge Rene Danis.

On behalf of the Law Association, Mr. Stiles presented the new appointee with two pipes. Judge Danis thanked his colleagues for their gift, one that he would much enjoy in his future home in Cochrane. Another Presentation On Saturday evening, December 16, a presentation was made to Judge Danis of a goldâ€"headed cane by fellowâ€" members of the Cornwall Club. Dr. Tallon, as president, asked J. G.

British Empire Holds Big Lead in Gold Production Estimate of world gold production in the first eleven monthns of 1939 by Amerâ€" ican Bureau of Metal Statistics is 29,â€" 202,000 ounces, with Russia and Mexico omitted. If to that figure be added oneâ€"eleventh more for the final month, 5,8000,000 for Russia and 923,000 ounces for Mexico, figures credited to them last year, total worid production for the full year is indicated at around 38,579,727 ounces, compared with 37,â€" 942,685 ounces in 1938, or gain of around 1.6 per cent at 637,042 ounces. Sixty per cent of the World‘s Output of Gold Credited to British Commonwealth made up by additional production in South Africa, United States and Canâ€" ada. For the evenâ€"month period, South Africa is credited with 11,720,000 ounces indicating total for the whole year of 12,785,545 ounces, up 615,062 ounces from total of 12,160,392 ounces in 1938. United States production was 5,108,000 ounces in the same period, indicating total of 5,572,464 for the full year, an increase of 564,185 ounces over the 1938 total of 5,008,178 largely accounted for by continued increase in Phillippine Isâ€" lands. Canada is credited with 4,671,â€" 000 ounces, indicating total of 5,6395,636 for the full year, an increase of 380,156 over. total of 4,715,480 in 1938. Thus, the three countries mentioned will be responsible for an increase of around 1,569,400 ounces over their own totals of 1938 and grand total for 1939 of 23,453,453 ounces, equal to 60 per cent of the world‘s supply. The two Interruption to production in many parts of the world has been more than nations under the British flag providâ€" ed 17,881,090 ounces, or about 46 per cent of the world‘s output. Indications are that in 1939 the whole of the tish Commonwealth produced over 60 per cent of the world total. FOR K. OF C. ARMY HUTS PMONXES 1200â€"â€"1201 PAGE
