the tribune stouffville ont thursday may 23 1946 our capital correspondent written exclusively for the stouffville tribune by m l schwartz judging from the progress which nas been shown so fat in this ses- slon and from what work remains to be done it is beginning to appear in ottawa that parliament may sit much longer than most observers in this capital had foreseen when this session started on march 14 with the possibility now thai this session may continue into the sum mer if not later already such bills as the creation of a separate minis- try of external affairs british loan agreement changing of dominion day to canada day can adian citizenship bill etc have taken up much time of the legisla tors and if this rate of progress with the nations business should be continued at the same slow pace for the numerous important mat ters on the agenda a long strenu ous session lies ahead especially when it is remembered that the very heavy program includes dis cussions on such allimportant matters as the budget estimates trade treaties housing employ ment etc with private members while anything pertaining to the budget of the federal government is of course a deep secret at this nme yet ever since the dominion- provincial conference had failed to attain its objective ending some what in the same manner as the ill- fated similar meeting here early in i1 there has been a virtual flood of wild speculations along parlia ment hill with one of the most i ersistent stories being that the effects of this failure may be felt in the coming budget unconsciously playing into the nands of these interests we cannot agree to vacate the field of succession duties said fin ance minister ilsley in ottawa one of the principal headaches of the moment is the bringiri back of dependents said in

canadas method of grain control when so many canadians are worrying now about employment opportunities it is a good report which can lie given about the need of stenographers in ottawa with this report showing that j quali fied typist or stenographer can be placed here at the moment foresters or other forester em- i ployees of the provincia govern- j ment be available to the country louncils for consultation in this ronnection some counties will seed help it remains to be seen also if j county authorities in for example j the sparsely settled county of hal- i iburton where much unwise cutt- jing is going on on privately owned land would undertake the regula tion of private forestry practice i there for one thing county rcven- i ties are not large in haliburton but the forest area concerned is exten sive this county at one time pro duced fabulous amounts of fine pine and is a natural forest region that should be properlv handled in a case such as this will the ontario government come to the assistance of the countv in the same wav as it in face of reports from other parts of canada and united states suggesting that bread shortages and reductions in sizes of loaves of bread may come as a result of cuts in the domestic flour production in north america and grain ship ments abroad yet it is indicated in unofficial quarters in ottawa that no such shortages or cuts in the size of bread are anticipated at this time in any general way since it is clear that as far as canada is con cerned domestic requirements of flour or bread can be met without drastic measures such as rationing of bread or similar actions it may be mentioned that the reported one- louitli cut in united states domes tic flotir production mav be com pared with the canadian cut of 10 percent of the 1915 supplies allow ed for domestic milling purposes according to the president of the canadian federation of agriculture iihiiannam any effort to intro duce the common use of oleomarga rine in this country instead of using hutter is ill advised this being in obvious reference to a request in the canadian senate in ottawa to legalize the manufacture of oleo margarine mr hannam insists that there is reason to believe that private interests who would stand to profit from the manufacture and sale of oleomargarine are taking advantage of the short supply of butter to press the issue though

problems confronting countries in regulating forestry practice as provided by a new act passed by the ontario government in his article which is reprinted below air irwin refers in part specifically to haliburton county and discusses the issue confronting the haliburton county council apparently as a partial answer to the pressure from various con servationminded groups and cer tain other authorities the ontario provincial legislature has passed bill 93 an act to provide for the control of the cutting of trees this act provides thai subject to the approval of the minister of lands and forests the council of a county and in a territorial district the council of a township may pass nylaws a instructing and regula ting the cutting of trees in any part of the country or township certain counties have been seek ing such authority for some years and it is to bo hoped that they take advantage immediately of this act to effect the restrictions on unwise cutting that has been far too com mon such county action would provide a test of the new act and would indicate how far the provin cial government acting through the minister of lands and forests is willing to allow the limitation of what have heretofore been regard ed at the rights of persons to do as they wish with their own pro perty not enough foresters available another concern to county coun cils will be to secure the assistance of qualified technical foresters in establishing general regulations in this regard but more particularly detailed cutting plans for farmers woodlots with which the councils are concerned presumably because of the effect of the removal of tim ber on the general welfare the supply of such foresters falls far short of the demand and we have past government mismanagement to thank for this situation in view of this storage two questions may be asked and the answers awaited with interest will the minister of lands and forests rpprove general or detailed county regulating
