/ FUEL IN ABUNDANDE | FOR CANADIAN USE Electric Heat, Coking Plats and Various Modern Methods © Will Aid te Supply: © i % ¢ ge ' 5 : (By Canadian Press) Montreal, Aug. 26.--"An Eng- lish fuel expert makes the predic- tion that within seven years Can- ada will be independent of beth American and British coal because of a patented process whieh will turn Canadian coal dust, lignite and even peat into fuel fit for domest- Ae and industrial purposes" says the Montreal Gazette in an editorial. "The prediction is interesting, whether or not the hopes expressed are wholly or partly realized in the time mentioned, or longer. In any event, Oanada is' better off as re- gards fuel supplies than ever he- fore. In industry the 'white coal from the great water sources that are being harnessed is being put to more use every day, and addi- tional waterfalls and rapids are being studied and their potentiali- ties estimated in advance of de- mands, A vast supply of steam coal is being mined and the coking in- dustyy is heing enlarged and its produet advertised. "As for household fuel, the peo- ple in Oanadian cities and towns are in an enviahle position, for they have the domestic fuel source and both American and British supplies at their service, When there was a strike in the American mines, Canada was supplied with Welsh and Scoteh coal, and seme Dutch and German fuel as well. When the British miners quit their labors, there wag hard American coal to | fill the bins and feed stoves and furnaces, "Prior to the great sfrike in the United States anthracite §ield in 1902, vewry littles if any, British coal entered the Canadian market, hut since then the importations of coal have grawn, and the last three or four years have seen a tremend- ous inerease-in the use of Welsh and Scotch coal in Eastern Canada, Montreal heing a particularly heavy user of British hard coal. American anthracite is still the most used of fuel here. The householder also has coke in plenty for his home if he prefers it. t "With domestic, American and Britich coal available, and coke in- to the bargain, there is less likeli- hood than ever of a fuel famine in Montreal, and competition should keep prices at a reasonable level The fuel situation to that extent may be considered satisfactory. MISSES ENGLISH: CANADIAN BOOKS | ------ Some Leiding Ca Canadian Au- thors Widely Read in France Little Known in Quebec A few of Sir Gilbert Parker's novels have undergone translation in France, but they have not reach- ed the I'rench-Canadian reader. Surely such stories as of the Mighty," and "When Val- mond Came to Pontiac," both of which portray in graphic manner the early life of French Capada, would find a ready public if they were published in the Province of Quebec today in the French lang- uage. Of recent years a number of books dealing with Canada's senior province have been published in English and. have heen read and appreciated in every province save that of wheh they treat. One of the most interesting of these is a collection of French-Canadian stud- jes prepared by Frank Oliver Call which, it has been pointed out, would lend themselves readily to translation. It is suggested by M. Laroche that capable translations of such hooks would be welcomed by the French-Canadian reader.

Yesterday it was even suggested that the car was loaned | and not stolen, but the police are | now satisfied that Seymond took the car without the owner's consent. In | view of the fact that Seymond was acquainted 'with the Greens apd | Prusky, the police formed the opin- | ion that Seymond would phone to | them for assistance and concerning his car which was parked in front! of Mr. Green's house.
