Qutstanding achievement in a field where Canadian skill and ingenuity have brought wartime miracles has been the construction of Frigates in Canadian shipyards. The Frigate is one hundred feet longer than the corvetlte, is faster and more strongly engined, carries heavier armament. The average cost is nearly $1,500,00¢. Deliveries for 1944 are scheduled at a rate close to one per week, with 44 to be delivered. Above are friâ€" gates at fitting dock. CANADIAN FRIGATES FOR NAVY TIMMINS, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, MAY 18TH, 1944 New Law in Regard to Slot Machines to Go Into Effect in Ontario, June 5 Some weeks ago there were a number of cases dismissed in police court wherci local citizens were charged with havâ€" ing *"pin | ball"* maghmes contrary to town byâ€"laws. These forms of enterâ€" tainment, or taking a chance, whichâ€" ever may be the case have been popuâ€" lar in the North. In the recent cases at Timmins the point that seemed to be at issue appeared to centre round the question as to whether the machâ€" ines were "pin ball" machines or simiâ€" lar devices. Apparentdly, this point may still be an issue in future cases, as the new act that goes into force in Ontario after June 5th, this year does not cover "pinball" machines." Some years ago agitation in town against certain â€"~slot machines resulted in a number of them being taken off the market and stored. This will not save them from seizure by the provinâ€" Antiâ€"Gaming Squad of Province Can Then Seize Any of the Machines Without Evidence. Act Says that No Slot Machine Shall be the Subject of Property Rights. The following article on the matter by Ralph Hyman in The Globe and Mail this week will be of general interâ€" est here, where the slot machines have been more or less popular through the years: cial police under the new law. Eviâ€" dently these will not only have to get out of the town, but out of the proâ€" vince. "The illegal part of the slot maâ€" chine business in Ontario, handling close to $3,000,000 of the public‘s surâ€" plus nickles, dimes and quarters, is about to receive a blow in the cash reâ€" gister which is likely to prove fatal. "On June 5 Bill No. 63 comes into operation in the Province, and its proâ€" visions ®will enable Inspector E. T. Doyle‘s antiâ€"gaming squad to seize these gaming machines without having to obtain evidence. The mere presence of such a machine in a store will be sufficient. The act says that no slot machine shall be capable of ownership or be the subject of property rights, "It is going to be Dâ€"Day for the slot machine distributors and the storeâ€" keepers, and right now the nickelâ€" consuming devices are being taken out of stores and billiard parlors, and are being shipped to Quebec Province and other jurisdictions where the statute books contain no Bill 63. Storing the machines won‘t prevent the Ontario Provincial Police from seizing them. The legislation covers this point. Each machines represents an investment of about â€"200â€"some of them cost as much as $800â€"and all the big distributors are gloomy removing them to safer climes. On and after June 5 there‘ll be no future in ithis phase of the busiâ€" ness. Pinballs Are O. K. Pinball machines are not covered by the Blackwell act, The police will still have to get evidence of gaming in connection with the operation of this type of device. It is possible that pinâ€" ball machines are for amusement only, and to make them liable to seizure withâ€" out evidence might create an injustice. The operation of slot machines in Ontario has been a gold mine to the disributors and the individuais who give the machines floor space. After June 5 the gold mine will produce Just half Fireside Club Holds Regular Monthly Meeting There were twentyâ€"one members preâ€" sent at the regular monthly meeting of the Fireside Club held on Monday night in the basement of the First United Church. The first half of the programme was composed of musical selections preâ€" sented by various children who had competed in the Festival of Music held here last week. Miss Beulah Wooa also delighted the gathering with a vocal selection. Miss F. Evans thankâ€" ed the artists for their very pleasant programme. Globe and Mail: When the invasion begins and there is need for the utmost in men and military equipment, what sort of conscience will those people have who promoted or permitted strikes in munitionâ€"making plants? Also presented were the reports of the conveners of the various commitâ€" tees. The Red Cross convener, Mrs. T. Harper, reported that 19 knitted artiâ€" clues for ‘both civilians and servicemen had been completed the last month. Delightful Musical Program Presented by Several Fesâ€" tival Participants. During the business portion of the meeting, a donation was voted to the Victor Home for Women, at Toronto A very favourable report was given on the rummage sale held in the church on May 6th. Plans for a picnic to be held on June 5th in the McIintyre Park were also discussed. Following were served Slot machines are sureâ€"fire revenue producers. â€"In any other kind of gamblâ€" ing game the element of luck is always to the fore. ‘But the Ontario Provincial Police have uncovered some interesting facts about these machines, which take $3,000,000 ‘a year in nickels and dimes from the "jackpot" seekers, In the first place the manufacturers of the machines fix the mechanism to control the payoff. And this payoff is most generousâ€"but not to the public. The distributors and his agent split between 70 and 80 per cent of all the revenue deposited in the slots. The suckers can have the rest. § Can Prevent Jackpots. as much. The other 50 per cent comes from pinball games. But if bigger profits are desired well that can be arranged, too. Therse is a little metal device that look like nothâ€" ing in particular, and it is a hand little gadget. It fits into the mechanâ€" ism and acts as a control to prevent the jackpot from turning up. The slot, machine manufacturers don‘t make this gadget, but an enterprising soul down Chicago way thought it up all by himâ€" self. â€" It does very neat job of cheatâ€" ing,. In fairness to the storeâ€"keepers and others who keep the machines, most of them know nothing about the controlling agent. Al they know it that they split 50â€"50 with the distribuâ€" tor. Little of what goes in comes out, and that represents solid business achievement. Three or four big companies blanket Ontario with machines. Inspector Doyle thinks these distributors long ago reached an agreement to divide Ontario into territories, with each distributor having a tegritory or territories for his exclusive benefit. When the fifth day of June arrives they will have to conâ€" centrate on the pinball games. 730 Machines Seized. Inspector Doyle, a most conscientious and able officer, is tickled over the Blackwell legislation, It is going to make the work satisfactory. The antiâ€" gaming squad was formed May 1, 1942. To date the officers have seized 739 slot machines, exclusive of others taken by officers not on the squad. Last August the squad took in the scenic beauties of the Muskoka district, and that wasn‘t all they took in. Twenyâ€"five machines were collected, and in them the officers found a total of $1,000 and some oddâ€"nickels. That is the kind of Big iBusiness the Ontario Government is putting away, permanently it is hoped. Founded on the lowly nickel, it pandered to the very human desire to get a lot for a small investment. But whether the machines were "liberal" ones or specialâ€" ly fixed, the result over a period of time was the same, The player got the works and the machine got his money. The Link: An earnest young soldier reports that he joined the army for three reasons: "First, I wanted to fighnt to defend my country, Second, I knew it would build me up physically. Third they came and got me." the meeting refreshments and a social time enjoyed. Report by Councillor Eyre Urges Consideration of Municipal Air Field Published in Timmins, Ont., Canadas EVERY THURSDAY A very important matter was brought to the attention of Timmins at the council meeting on Monday when Counâ€" cillor K. A.Eyre‘s report on his attenâ€" dance at the recent meeting of the Aeronautical Institute of Canada was read. Comments by Councillor Eyre further explained the importance of the matter and the need for early consideration and action by the Town. The report by Councillor Eyre was as follows: Councillor Eyre Foresees Large Number of Private Airâ€" planes in Use After the War, and Stresses the Need for Municipal Air Field to Handle This New Line of Trafâ€" fic. Importance of Air Service to North. Might Comâ€" bine Park and Air Field. Report on Meetin Timmins, Ont., V His Worship the Mayor â€" and ‘Councillors: As your representative at a meeting of the Aeronautical Institute of Canada, held in Toronto, Ont., May 2nd and 3rd, I wish to submit the following report: The primary purpose of this meeting was to consider and advise ways and means of postâ€"war employment in aviaâ€" tion for thousands of our young Canaâ€" dians now serving in the R. C. A. F. After hearing various Canadian and American speakers on phases of postâ€" war aviation, I am of the opinion we should begin planning for a municipal air port, so that we will be ready to swing into action at the shortest time possible after the war. I do not think we should plan in terms of feeder lines only. The statement made by men in the industry was that 85 per cent of the planes used after the war would be privately owned and operated, Towns or Municipalitiee who do not provide landing and service facilities for these aircraft will not receive a share of business from this source.

I assume he had in mind service for the private owner of aircraft, Mr. Leo M. Dolan, Chief of Canadian Government Travel Bureau, Ottawa, Ont., gave a very interesting and inâ€" formative address on the part that aviation will play in the development of Canada in the post war era. He emâ€" phasized that Canadians must be preâ€" pared in civilain aviation to compete against Mexico and other Latin Ameriâ€" There were delegates from seven proâ€" vinces and it was interesting to hear their advanced plans. Some towns and municipalities have already secured the sites for landing fields, Others have sites under option. I recommend we apply for memberâ€" ship in the Aeronautical Institute of Canada, so that we will receive upâ€"toâ€" date data on what is taking place in Civilian Aviation. Membership fee for a town of our size would cost approx«â€" imately $25.00 yearly. The Institute is in a position to supply us with advice and technical knowledge so that we could have proper guidance. Respectfully Submitted, Karl A. Eyre. About a Municipal Airport. Commenting on the report, with which he said he was much impressed, Councillor Gladstone asked what was meant by a municipal airportâ€"whether it was one owned and operated by the municipality and the extent of its serâ€" â€"vice,. â€" Councillor Gladstone suggested that Councillor Eyre prepare a brief !setting forth all plans and proposals along this line. Countcillor ‘Spooner thought that it would be well worth while for the town to follow ‘Councillor Eyre‘s. suggestion and take membership in the Aeronauâ€" tical Institute of Canada ta keep posted on air service matters. can countries for this type of tourist trade. There were approximately 300 deleâ€" gates in attendance. Councillor Eyre said that for the preâ€" sent he would give a verbal brief on the air field matter. In reply to Counâ€" cillor Gladstone, he said that a muniâ€" cipal air field would be owned by the town. He thought that the best plan might be to lease the air field to private individua‘ls to operate, . There would also be a hanger, perhaps, and repair shops, restaurant etc., for the accomâ€" modation of the air travellers,. â€" These latter could also be operated privately and would be a source of revenue to the town. â€" He suggested also that the need for an airfield and for a town park might be filled at the same time. I1% enough suitable land could be secured the park for the people and the airâ€" field etc., could be together and so serve a double purpose, In regard to the seâ€" lection of a suitable site the advice of pxperts would be necessary, Councillor Eyre said, and this was one reason he felt that connection with the Aeronautiâ€" al Institutee was, desirable. Councillor Eyre said that information given at the meeting of the Aerautical Institute was to the effect that aftes the war a plane would be available at the price of an automobile before the â€"war. â€"There was one plane referred to that would sell at $1200.00 to $1500.00. It would carry four passengers and go 15 miles to the gallon of gasoline. It could be operated by anyone able to run an automobile, Councillor Eyre felt very confident that in a few years the plane was going to take a very big part in transportation, not only for freight and passenger service but also I for private use He did not suggest Mayor Brunette commented that he had for some time been advocating an airport for Timmins. for private use, e l not that the plane would take the place of the auto, but he did think that air ser»â€" vice and private planes would take a very vital part in tourist travel and in development,. This would affect the North Land very particulariy, and Councillor Eyre suggested that we should be ready to meet the situation, and ready to take advanage of any and every opportunity that may arise for the benefit of this part of the North and its people. Council agreed that Timmins should join the Aeronautical Institute of Canada. When Councilior Eyre pointed out that membership enâ€" titeld the town to a magazine of infor«â€" mation on air service matters and other literature, Councillior Bonhomme asked if this material could be given to each member of council so that all could keep posted, and Councillor Eyre is to see what can be done along this line, Single Copyâ€"Five Cents Councilior Eyre is to make further reports on the whole question of municipal airport, as conditions warâ€" rant. This would affe yery â€" particulariy e / suggested â€" th: to meet the situ I any arise for the North reed that
