How much can wages here be increased? When reckonâ€" ing is made of the effects of the $7 bonus perhaps it wil! be shown that they cannot be increased legitimately by mre than five cents an hour. Perhaps the raise can be more. Peéerâ€" haps cpnsiderably more. But whatever can be done to raise wages, consistent with sound business practise, should be done. This new system of bonus is not negligible as has been made out. It has been stated that if one Porcupine mine reâ€" turned to the production level of its peak year, 1941, an inâ€" crease over normal revenue for such tonnage would be less than half a million dollars, under the new system. The entire problem is one of increased production and this in turn bo‘ils down as to how more, and better, miners can be induced to work underground- The answer hele is as plain as the nose on anyone‘s face. Pay more wages to attract more men to the industry. And for those already at work in it, scale upward the bonus system, to make it worthwhile for the ‘average miner to work harder, ui The $7 increase in the price of surplus gold can be utilized to good advantage by the industry and despite the grumbling in some quarters, The Advance believes it will be.> Profits to shareholders can be increased and more wages can be paid to labor, which, in the ripâ€"ride of increased living costs, is The strikingly abundant power of a picket line is never better illustrated than it is today in the town of Timmins, a working class town and a town Of heavy beerâ€"drinkers Despite the fact that a certain amount of chaos has been created in the district. wa‘ters‘ union now, on strike by the secession of part of its membership who have gone back to work, the number 0% residents éntering local hotels today is still negligible. Mhat placard moving back and forth in front of a hotel keeps the public out. None too optomistic a view appears to be taken by local mine offigials of the benefits to be gained from the subsidy of gold announced this week by Minister of Finance Douglas C. Abbott. Mr. Abbott announced, together witn multifarious pther things which have not the direct bearing on the econâ€" omy of the Porcupine as has the problem of gold, that for the coming three years a susidy of $7 per ton would be paid on every fine ounce of gold produced per year in excess of the quantity produced during the year ending June 30 last. The Advance thinks that, rather than complain of mis. understanding at the best and illâ€"treatment at the worst, the mining industry would be advised to snatch at this small gai_n which can be quite an appreciable one if it can be capitalâ€" ized onâ€"â€"â€"roll up its sleeves and tackle the subsidy in a manner which will make it pay off. becoming well_nigh submerged PAGE FoUR The Advance is of the opinion that this move of Mr. Abâ€" bott‘s to alleviate the mining industry is a final one and that it is all that he intends todo. ‘This is it, as far as the industry is concerned. And no matter what remonstrations may be made by either mining men or unionists, who have lately surâ€" veyed the gold problem in a dfferent light, no governmental handout is going to be made which will solve overnight the problems of healthier dividends, providing more labor or paciâ€" fying labor‘s demands for higher pay, Nt s ow icA «ts .. i * Sitne As to whether or not the public should continue to reâ€" main out of local hotels, the Advance refuses to editorialize. Through ‘the" charges and counterâ€"charges which have been tossed back and forth between waiters and hotelmen, the basic L ts " 4 s th ts a M s h ce ie t issue of the strike has become confused Hotelmen claim that the strikers are being supported by local Reds, and apâ€" parently they are, a factor which hampers the union‘s cause and alienates public sympathy. However, hotelmen still inâ€" sist they won‘t recognize the union as a barga‘ining agency, because it is not certified. Yet they have signed, or are preâ€" pared to sign, an agreement with the dissenting faction of waiters, who are cértainly not ceÂ¥tified either, nor numerous enough to be the official batghining agency even if an appliâ€" cation for certification, was made. f All in all, it 1boks‘like a showâ€"down battle. But what we marvel at is the‘manner in which a picket line keeps the thirsâ€" tiest of drinkers out, whatever his particular oninion concernâ€" ing the dispute.

The 1914 council went on record as seeking increased hospital accommodation. One of the first reâ€" solutions passed by the 1915 council was> worded as "Moved â€" by Councillor McCov,, seconded by cillor Globe, that the clerk ascertain, if possible, whether or not the Governâ€" ment will enter into a lease. and if so, for what number of years, in case a building is erected in the Town of Timmins for the purpose of a mining recorder‘s officeâ€"Carried." * So resourceful, reliable and dependâ€" able was that dog team service in the days when transportation was a big problem, that the service expanded in notableâ€" way on its own â€" merit.. "Charlie" proved equally. resourceful, reliable and dependable as a counâ€" cillor. As a matter of fact, all memâ€" bers of the carly councils in Timmins must have been resourceful.. reliable and dependable to achieve what they did. From nothing, and with practiâ€" cally nothing, they had to build a town, orderly and comfortable. The daegree of success achieved in the first three or four years is its own award of merit to the early: town. councils. The first meeting of the 1915 Timâ€" imnins townâ€"council was held on Januâ€" ary 12th. Mayor W. H. Wilson presided, and the councillors elected.were A. R. Globe,Ed «McCoy, H. Peters, Dr. H. H. Moore, Ernest Laflammeandâ€"Charles Dalton. All were elected by acclamgâ€" tion. The new member of council was Chas. Dalton, associated. with‘ his father and his brother. John Dalton, in the livery and transfer business. In this line, "Charlie" Dalton, as he was affectionately termed by all who knew him, was a real pioneer in the North Land, his dog team being famous in the Cobalt Camp before he came â€" to Porcupine. At the January 18th meeting of the council of 1915 authority was given for the erection of a fire tower for the fire bell. At the same time a bonus of $100.00 was given the fire chief for services in 1914. The matter of paying salaries to the firemen was referred to the Fire and Light Committee. On Feb. ist, 1915, council accepted the resignation of Thos. M. Wilson as cleérkâ€"treasurer, but his successor was not appointed until a later meeting, Mr. Wilson, of course, being: expected to carry on until his sucgessor was apâ€" pointed and took over. And thereby hangs a The minutxen book tells the story in an. inâ€" terestiffig way. It appears that a speâ€" cial meeting of council was called: on Feb. 4th to deal with the matber‘ of appointing a new clerkâ€"treasurer. The retiring _ clerkâ€"treasurer wrote the minutes in the book for this meeting. In listing those present, the clerk added: "And Councillor Dalton arâ€" rivinsg after two resolutions had been passeéd." (The.first these : resoluâ€" tions, it may be noted here, was to appoint the new clerkâ€"treasurer, and the second provided for the bonding of such official in the usual way.) After the list of those present, including theâ€"late arrival of Councillor Dalton, the minutes continue: "W. E. McCoy acted as clerk, in the absence of T. acted as clerk, in the absence of T. M. Wilson. who was not notified of the meeting being held." Another interesting story is sugâ€" gested by the minutes of the meeting of February 15th, Councillor Globe was in the chair, in the absence of Mayor W. â€"H. Wilson. It was moved by Couneillor McCoy, seconded by Counâ€" cillor Moore, that, "Whereas the valiâ€" dity. of the clection .of W. H. Wilson, as mavor of the municipality, and of Henry Peters and Charles Dalton, as Councillors of this municipality. may be auestioned, and it is desirable to remove iny doubts as to the validity thereof, Resolved that in pursuance of the powers conferred upon us by Secâ€" tion 159 of the Municipal Act, R.S.0. 1914. Chapter 192, and any other au«â€" thority in that behalf, we do herebs elect the said W. H. Wilson for the office of Mavor of the municipality of the corporation of the town of Timâ€" mins, and the said Henry Peters and the said Charles Dailton for the office of Councillors of the said municipal corporation." | The motion was duly passed, but it was noted in the minutes that Counâ€" cillor Laflamme was not in favour, and that Councillor Dalton did not vote. As a sort of seauel to this story, there is a paragraph in the minutes of the meeting of March l1st, reading as follows: "Proposed by Councillor Globe, seconded by Councillor McCoy, Yes, This is Timmins! But not, recently THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO It is noticed that after H. E. Montâ€" gomery â€"became. clerkâ€"treasurer, the minutes show each resolution as numâ€" beréed, something that had not been done before. On many occalons this proved of value in cases where referâ€" ence had to be made to previous moâ€" tions. The minute book also showed considerable improvement in legibility and in completeness. In addition all byâ€"laws were incorporated in a book, with a list of contents for easy reférâ€" ence, The new clerkâ€"treasurer wrote a very clear arnd legible hand. Also, shortly after â€"his appointment, on motion of ‘Councillors Globe and McCoy, a typewriter was ordered for the use of the town office. It is not likely, however, that this first typeâ€" writer is still in the town‘s service. Newspapers of today, <mo doubt, would make a banner lines of one reâ€" solution passed by council on March Ist. 1915. Today,:its chief interest lies in the sidelight it throws on the prinâ€" ciple that held so firm a place in the minds and hearts of: the Oldâ€"Timersâ€" that every person is entitled to 2 second chance â€" that fair warning should precede:â€"more drastic action. In the minutes, the:item reads: "Proâ€" posed by Councillor â€" Globe, seconded by Councilior ~Laflamme, that the clerk be instructed to write Miss ... (a young lady employed in the town office, and named in the motion) that office hours must be strictly adhered it â€"will be necessary to take steps unpleasant to all parties concerned., Such office hours to be 9.30 a.m. toâ€" 1 pm. and from 2 p.m. toâ€" 5: p.m.â€"Carried:" that in the minutes the â€" regular meeting on Feb. 15th, the name of Councillor Dallton be struck out, havyâ€" ing been present, but not‘ takins part, and ‘that the minutes otherwise be adoptedâ€"Carried." ~According to tradition, the plan proved. suecessfulâ€"at least forâ€"a time so ‘the" town retained the serâ€" vices of a very efficient and compeâ€" tant employee. As noted before in this column, the early councils may have used unconventional methods, but, the plans usually worked out in surprisâ€" ingly successful way. In the Spring of 1915, the council authorized the Board of Works Comâ€" mittee . to build a stable for the fire team:; also to purchase hanging harâ€" ness for the fire hall. The 1915 council would not of dreamed of buying diving équipment for the firemen, and the "hanging‘ harness" "was not for the firemen, but for the fireteam. ~ In April,; 1915, theâ€"sum . of $300.00 was, earmarked s to, be â€" spent. for â€"a house for the fire chief, the balance to be paid :by notés payable April 1st, 1916, total= cost â€"not to exceed $880.00. So, you can ste.. the 1915 council was able‘to overcome the housing. shortâ€" age, which was as serious then in proâ€" portion as it is here today, though, of course, today, a down payment of $300.00 would not much more than pay for the agents commission on i house for any mafti.

C. sCoTT Local members of the CCF party are likely to see little humour in a book of cartoons concerning the party now â€" being circulated in Ontario. Drawn by Jack Boothe, staff cartoonist of. the Gélobe and Mail, the booklet lampoons most of the planks in the CC.F. program. Entitled, "Let‘s All Join the CCP.". the cartoons illustrate Socialism in Action in the form of a cireus, with Mr. Coldwell plaving the role of a barker inviting the pubflc in to see the show. Mr. and Mrs. Public enter to see the thin man, who barely eats enolign to. keep alive under British socialism; the bearded lady whose be ar d of _ controls and reâ€" strictions grow directly before the eyes of onlookers; the tatooed man who hasn‘t clothes, so a suit is tattoed on his body; the twoâ€"headed calf of less pay and more work and a number of other cireus freaks portray ng various aspects of socialism. The cartoons are clover,. but too heavyâ€"handed for genuine â€" humor. Purely a political tract, the booklet sees nothing whatever of benefit in the program of the socialist party in Canada. It is not mentioned who.is responâ€" sible for circulating the booklet, so we must presume it is fathered by "the vested interests" who turned an anâ€" onymous barrage of criticism against theâ€"C.CF. at the time of the last provincial election. when Messrs. Bert Trestrail, Gladstone Murray and other highâ€"powered public relations men were hired to discredit that party. Inâ€" cidentally, at that time they did a thorough johb, except in Northern Onâ€" tario, where for some reason or other their publicity failed to "take." We are no devotee of the C.C.F. We believe its schemes are impractical in present day Canada and that its leaders lack the hardâ€"boiled common sense to conduct the affairs of the country. They‘are a visionary lot who seem to overlook the fact that Canada is the last great remaining country in the Western hemisphere which is still in the process of development; and that as long as development continues to take place, our present free economy is suitable. Socialism, in our opinion, is a reâ€" medy applicable when a country‘s last frontiers have disappeared and the saturation point of development has been reached. Thus, to our way of thinking, that great bastion of big business, the United States, is more ripe for a form of controlled economy than is this country, for there the last frontiers have already disappeared. The recurrent topic in Hunter‘s broadcasts and news column is Comâ€" munism in the Lumber and Sawmill Workers Union, the affairs of which are directed by Bruce Magnuson, one of the cleverest Reds in CaMada and a member of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Canada. Hunâ€" ter is perfectly correct when he says that this huge union is exclusively Communist in its executive and that it is being used as a vehicle to spread the gospel of Stalin. But we don‘t like the manner in which Hunter goes about his business. But to get back to the subject, there is something vaguely repulsive about these anonymous attacks against the CCF. It is not the violence of the attacks to which we object, but the anonymity. It is Obvious that Cartoonâ€" ist Boothe is not drawing his sketches, having them printed in booklet form and circulating them through the mail at his own expense. Then who is? x Apropos this subject, we have often wondered at the current activities of Jim Hunter, radio news commentator who is heard regularly in transcribed broadcasts from the local radio station. All in all, he is doing an extremely poor job, When he screeches over the air in wellâ€"paid frenzy on the subject, so stagey and overâ€"plaved in his preâ€" sentation that it is difficult for anyâ€" one other than an imbecile not to detect a note of phoniness. And so aciâ€" dulous and abusive is his atlack, that it seems he is going all out to prove to his sponsors, who cannot be much more intelligent than he in their approach to a very serious probâ€" lem, that they are getting their money‘s worth. In addition to his broadcasts. Hunter purveys a news column in some of the weekly newspapers of the province. This column is not paid for by the newspapers which use it, as might be the case with a writer of Hunter‘s reputitions. Nor is it a handout which comes into the office for nothing, in the manner‘ which much second rate material does. The papers which run it are paid ‘standard advertising rates for doing so. It is that most nefarious type of publicity, paid propoganda disâ€" suised as news. We believe there is a definite need for the Red menace in this country to be exposed, but not in the manner in which the raueous voice of Huntér is speaking. We don‘t think that the same â€" rabbleâ€"rousing methods emâ€" ployed by the Reds themselves should be employed in the battle against them. Something morge astute reaâ€" sonable and reasoning is required. And why bother with anonymity? If a group of business men think it worthwhile to toss counterâ€"propoganda against the Reds, who do they not come into the "onen? It is nothing of which to be ashamed. This business of hiding behind a paid mouthpiece should be dispensed with, for inevitâ€" ably the show is given away one way or another and public reaction boomâ€" erangs. If business has an honest story to tel} let it be done openly. Who is backine Hunter® Dus to the narrow subject he deals with, it is not difficult to guess. ’ Scott‘s Column Wilbur and Friend Evade Law‘s Toils The oldtimer opened his mouth to say something but I grabbed his arm and hustled him up the street before he had a chance to get us into the toils of the law again. He wasgoâ€" ing to be a bit of a problem, I saw. ; We tramped off down the street looking for a place to eat, for although our joint wealth amounted to but 92 cents, the rumblings of hunger in my empty stomach could be no longer disregarded. I hadn‘t tasted a morsel of food since the preâ€" vious noon and if there is anything which is prone to give a man a gloomy aspect on life it is not enough to eat. Eating is a habit very difficult to break, I have found on several ocâ€" casions. (We left Wilbur and the Phantom Prospector in the arms of the law after Constable Archie Bean of the OPP hustled them ‘into his car as an aftermath to a scuffle on the road to Ansonâ€" ville between the Phantom and the constable. The old prospecâ€" tor had striven to defend Wilbur, whom he thought was about to be arrested ftor absenoding from Timmins wearing a suit of clothes obtained on credit from X, wellâ€"known merchant. Howâ€" ever, as the OPP are not yet running a collection agencey, conâ€" stable Bean had had no intention of arresting the little exâ€" scribe. Nevertheless the prospector‘s action in attacking the constable plunged the two itinerants into a fresh kettie of grief.) (Continue from here) Constables as a group are not the scoundréls and rogues they are thought to be by some sections of the public. In fact, some oi them are gentlemen of high order, who neither smoke, drink or go with the girls who do. They are honest guys tryâ€" ing to get a living along the lines which I personally am conâ€" tent to let them pursue. They earn their cash@gin a fashion which fa‘ls to arouse envy in my soul. I gave him a song and dance about the hardships of the early days in the North and it seemed to please him. for in a ‘moment he was telling me how he got off the boat from Eurâ€" ope without a in his pocket, how he had sold vegetables \from a cart in the streets of Toronto and how he had pooléd his savings with those of his brother to establish this little restaurant. He was a sincere, hardworking guy. "Okay, I give you meal for work," he said. We ate nheartily, about three dollars worth. Then we reâ€" tired to the kitchen to fulfill out part of the barga‘n. In the corner of the kitchen a girl was rolling a pie crust, "Whew," T thought to myself, "I can‘t blame the dishâ€" washer." ... Be Continued However, constables are constitutionally averse to having people attack them n the middle of the road or anywhere else, without provocation. It makes them very mad. Perhaps this is due to the fact that they are constantly on the alert for sonteone to attack them, for dealing with violence is part of kheir business. Hence, they see little humor when someone hauls off and lets them have it, even if the attacker is a crackâ€" out like syrup out of a pitcher." "Listen, Archie," said I as we zoomed along the excellent paued highway which leads into Ansonville, "the old boy here is harmless. He‘s a little bit teched, that‘s all. Thinks he has a gold mine where you just turn on a spigot and the gold runs out like syrup out of apitcher." "He swung at me didn‘t he?" replied Archie, "For all I know, if he had a Roscoe he would have blasted me on the spot." (Archie is a reader of Damon Runyan). ‘"Consider his motives," said I, "He was attempting to deâ€" fend a friend. He was willing to jump between me and a sesâ€" sion in durance vile. What motives could be nobler?" "All I can say is that if it was you he was trying to defend, he must be nuts," replied Archie, ‘"Well, you won the fight, didn‘t you. It was just a little workout to keep you in trim for bigger things," said 3: This pleased Archie. His chest puffed out a little,..

I enquired, disentangling my. self from the legs of a chair and standing erect. The restauranteur faced me. moustaches bristling. An almost incomprehensible barrage of abuse issued from his lips diredted not at me but at the gent who had just fled from the premises. I caught the words "dishwasher", "daughter‘", "maka date‘" and finally the story unfolded. The fugitive had been a dishwasher and according to the proprietor, he had been philandering with his (the boss‘) daughter, someâ€" thing no wellâ€"mannered dishwasher would do. â€"~Finally the boss had caught him with his arm about Rosa‘s waist and the foregoing scene had ensued. l "Bums, eh?" said the proprietor, whose name turned out to be Peéete.

"He said he was thinking of his poor old mother and how it would break her heart if she knew he was in jail," I said. ‘The car pulled nto Ansonville, came to a halt in front of the town hall.
