It can scarcely be coincidence that conscription, rationing, allotment of liquor, and everything else appear to have favoured that one province. The latest move at Ottawa is another case in point. The soâ€"called family allowance scheme will mean far more to one province than to any other. Whether it will win votes for the part of a part of a party at QOttawa is another matter. It is cerâ€" tain, however, that it is creating deep bitterness| in other provinces. Tt is very doubtful if any worry about the matter at all..

The remedy is nothing very complicated. Perhaps if it were it would be hailed with greater enthusiasm and public notice. All that seems to be required is to break the shackles from the prospector and give him a chance. When the prospector had a chance he presented enough new finds to give the mining inâ€" dustry a promising future. The prospector will come forward again if given the opportunity. Reâ€" move the unfair restrictions from the prospector. It is besides the point to talk about protecting the public. It is not the prospector that menaces the public, but gentlemen in other lines of activity. Public protection may be assured by rigid enforceâ€" ment of the common laws against fraud and robâ€" bery. The prospector will not be caught by these, because he is intrinsically and by reason of his calling a particularly honest fellow. With a fair show and a fair field there will soon be more prosâ€" pectors returning to the life they love and more adventurous young men entering a field that, though it has its hardships and difficulties, offers great rewards to the faithful. so that a remedy may be applied, for the decline of prospecting means eventually the end of minâ€" ing. It would be well, however, to keep the situaâ€" tion in its proper perspective, The statement of the Ontario Mining Association has been twisted to read that since 1920 there have been no finds of importance by prospectors, The two stateâ€" ments are by no means the same thing. The Adâ€" vance ventures the opinion that since 1920 there have been a number of discoveries of probable imâ€" portance. In the Porcupine area alone there have been stakings that bear all the earmarks of being prospective mines of major importance. Despite all the handicaps encountered, all the prospectors have not been altogether idle Oor unâ€" successful in their search for new mines since 1920. / A few faithful and courageous prospectors have kept up the quest for new properties. â€" By the very nature of the men, they could do nothing else. The trouble has been that after making t,hel finds, the prospectors have been unable to secure the necessary finances to develop the claims into mines. The prospectors, reduced in numbers and handicapped by regulations and regimentation, have found the strikes. Under the old mining laws of Ontario the finds would have been deâ€" veloped. The restrictions imposed by the Ontario Securities Act have held back development all right, but it is not the fact to say that there have been no finds since 1920, though the statement of the Ontario Mining Association is absolutely corâ€" rect as to the truth that all but a very small proâ€" portion of present day mining depends upon disâ€" coveries before 1920, o In a brief on mine taxation prepared by the Ontario Mining Association it was stated that only about sixteen per cent. of Canada‘s annual metal production comes from mining areas disâ€" covered since 1920. This was taken as authoritaâ€" tive confirmation of the popular belief that in recent years prospecting has declined almost to the vanishing point. It is well for the decline in the success of prospecting to be fully understood, Timmins, Ontario, Thursday July 6th, 1944 New â€" Liskeard is swelling out its Obe Yorrupine Aduvancee PAE FOUR EGGATRA IN EGG®S A NEW FORM OF RELIEF Per Year,.

The compulsory savings plan has been dropâ€" ped from the income tax collection. It should never have been adopted. It savoured too much of the Nazi style of bureaucratic regimentation, where some inflated employee of the people unâ€" dertook to know the citizen‘s business and duties and lay out his life for him.

It is another question, however, whether the compulsory savâ€" ings plan would have been dropped if an election were not in the offing. i GRAVEL AND SANDâ€"-AND PLACER It is pleasing also to note that the mutual help resulted in both the Firemen and the Legion being unusually successful in their events. The clash of dates could not have been avoided by either. Working together, they won public favour and public support and two big successes. The Fireâ€" men‘s sports day was a huge success. The Fireâ€" men‘s dance was crowded. The Legion had a big night Saturday night. The friendliness of these two valuable organizations won from the public the heartiest of endorsation. It is pleasing also to see that the Firemen showâ€" eda themselves in equally favourable and friendly light. All afternoon the Firemen continued to announce to the crowds at the Hollinger Park the fact the Legion Carnival at the McIntyre Arena that evening was something so special tha‘ none should miss it. And this, despite the fact that the Firemen had theim own dance at the Riverside Pavilion that evening. In assuming this attitude the Timmins Firemen were also running true to form. They, too, never miss a chance to help along any community effort. Indeed, the Legion and the Firemen has so frequently taken part together in community affairs that it would be difficult to imagine them travelling .alone or separately. Many people commented on Saturday on the unusually large number of members of the Timâ€" mins Branch of the Canadian Legion who took part in the parade in connection with the annual tournament of the District of Cochrane Firemen‘s Association. It impressed many as showing a most commendable type of spirit, that the Legion should take the time and trouble to help the Fireâ€" men when they had an event of their own in proâ€" gress during the whole week. It is no more than The Advance would expect of the Legion. The members of that body have always shown the finest community spirit in every way. The numâ€" ber on parade on Saturday was more impressive than most people realize. While the membership of the local Legion continues to grow, there are comparatively few men available for nonâ€"military parades, so many of the members being absent on service overseas and service in Canada in the reâ€" gular forces and in the Veterans‘ Guards, and on other essential war work. Accordingly, the Legion‘s part in Saturday‘s parade was especially commendable. ‘ Most people are bitterly disappointed at the slight opposition shown in parliament to the poliâ€" tical plan of using the people‘s money for the inâ€" direct purchase of votes, or the hope of such purâ€" chase. The C.C.F. have been vicious in their de-i nunication of direct relief. Yet here is a case of direct relief against which they show no animus. Moreover, it is the Fascist and Nazi methodâ€"used by both Hitler in Germany and Mussolini in Italy. Are the people of Canada as gullible as those of Italy and Germany? If they are, the country i certainly in a bad way. If they are not, it is high time that they made their voices heard in urgent protest against a cheap attempt to bribe them with their own money, at the expense of the unity and future of the Dominion. pmmmmo t P P P AP PPA AP PP P PP P PP P PP PP does not get down as far as the children in too many: cases.
