THE HAILEYBURIAN Page Three THURS, SEPTEMBER 18, 1952 Conservative Member Says Tour Creates Understanding ~ Temiskaming's Conservative ~ member of the Provincial House, Bob Herbert, who accompanied the touring legislators on their recent Northern Ontario tour said this week that there was no doubt in his mind that the visit- ing party had been greatly im- pressed with what they had seen and that in time to come, this first-hand knowledge of the country would create better un- derstanding towards ironing out Northern Ontario' problems and progress, Morevoer, the elgislators en- countered a country of warm, friendly people. Everywhere, Mr. Herbert said, they were re- ceived in true Northern fashion which led to high praise for our hospitality. "We must remember", Mr. Herbert said, "that every con~ stituency has its problems. When the opportunity presented itself, Mr. Herbert pointed out to his fellow legislators the immediate needs of the district. In the. mining areas, new and better roads must be built; in the farming areas, roads must be kept ploughed to link up scat- tered communities in the winter months;- in the tourist area of Temagami, a liquor store must be built to meet the demand for supplies, particularly from Americans who are obliged to turn around and go back to the Bay or on to Cobalt to make their purchases. Knowing the North as well as he does, the most interesting stop for Mr. Herbert was his first visit to Moosonee where they saw the beautiful new sanatorium on the Island. Servicing some 5,000 Eskimos and Indians who have access to an X-ray service oncea year and are brought to the hos- pital, the 250-bed hospital has at the moment 270 patients .. Often, plates show that many have been afflicted and are self cures. The town itself is small, with tents in the majority --houses that were built for the natives were torn down for fuel in preference for the tent life. At every stop the tour was well planned and left nothing to be desired. At Smooth Rock Falls they saw the Smooth Rock Fals Pulp and Paper; at Iroquois Falls visits were made to the bitibi plant and through the sur- rounding areas where the cam- pany is spendine $250,000 on public works--fire hall side- walks, telephones and giving free land to encourage workmen to remain in the area. From Kirk- land, they went to the Kerr Ad- dison Mine and back to Timmins where the Board of Trade bounc_ ed members over the Warren Lake road where the government is to complete a 10-mile exten- sion. The Mountjoy Timber lum- ber mill was next on the sche- dule and back to Timmins for the official opening of the North- ern Ontario Exhibition, Later many went underground at the McIntyre Mine to the 7,000 foot level, the deepest that any of them had ever been. AtA Chapleau, the welcoming committee subjected the members to a dusty drive over a nightmar- ish road and impressed them with the potentiality of the sur- rounding areas if a good road was built. The tour wound up in New Lis- keard, visiting the Wabi Iron Works, Hill - Clarke - Francis, the hospital and the farming area where Separate schools recently completed or under construction = =a RAILWAY TIME TABLE CHANGES Effective SUNDAY SEPT. 28th, 1952 Full Information from NATIONAL in Uno Park, Thornloe and Earl- ton were inspected. The Fall Fair at New Liskeard was an- other highlight. In Haileybury, visits were made to the Morissette Diamond Drilling Company, where mem- bers witnessed actual drilling in limestone and diamond setting, and to the Provincial School ot Mines. The trip to Cobalt took them through the Hellens Min- ing and Reduction and the Silver Miller mill. In conclusion, Mr. Herbert said that the entire journey was an education in itself and that members had been surprised and enlightened as they never would otherwise have been except by a handfirst- tour such as they had "Can Anyone Here Swim_" A desperate shout of "Can any- one here swim?" brought prompt action from-Christopher Carr, 14, of Westmount, P.Q., recently at the wharf at Kingston, Ont.-- fully clothed, Carr dived into 18 feet of water to rescue Eleanor Smith, 7, and Veronica Dillon, 13, of Perth, Ont., who had fallen off the wharf while waiting for 4 ferry.
