The work of concentration went on apace and it was until the 12th of April, 1917, that the entire front was established at the eastern side of Vimy Ridge, with the wide flat country of the plains of Douai, entirely under cbservation by the British and Canadian forces. It was a victory far beyond expectation. but one which cost a heavy loss t Canada.

"Nothing could ‘be farther truth," Mr. Ferry told The Star. "I have been in communication with Legion branches throughout the entire northâ€"Timmins, Haileybury, New Lisâ€" keard, Sault Ste. Marie, Espanola, Copâ€" per Cliff, Sturgeon Falls and North Bay â€"and they are all unanimously against any interference by the government with pensions," he added. "The attitude of the Legion is that the government should first enquire into the possibility of economizing in other departments before approaching us. We are loyal citizens and are not unreasonable in our claims." "Protesting against the proposal to suspend payments of pensions to war veterans who are employed in the civil service, Captain J. J.

Rhodes, Minister of PFinance, setting forth particularly the stand of Northern Ontario exâ€"service men. tary that The Ontario president states his views to Mr. Rhodes as follows: "I have been informed of a rumour going the rounds to the effect the Canadian Legion in Northern Ontario is in favour of the proposed reductions applying to civil servants. I respectâ€" fully submit that this is not correct. During the past two days I have been perscnally in contact with the larger branches in the north by long distance telephone and they all bitterly resent the inference that they are not thorsughly backing the Dominion comâ€" mand of the Canadian Legion in their efforts to prevent any interference with the present pensions of civil servants. "During the course of the next week I will be able to furnish the provincial command written evidence from the branches confirming the above stateâ€" ments. In the meantime, speaking as Northern Ontario legionnaire and knowing the personnel of most of the branches, I can assure you that the Dominion Command voices our sentiâ€" ments in protesting the suggested change."

It was pcinted out that lien notes were being used to the sericus harm of people these days, goods being taken possession of by the original} owners despite the fact that the greater part of the cost had been paid in by the buyers. This feature of the lien note business is particularly objectionabile in these present trying times. The idea back of the resolution at the Ansonville board of trade was recognized as deâ€" cidedly worth while in the public inâ€" terests but the exact wording of the resolution to be presented to the Govâ€" ernment was thought to be also worthy of the greatest care and attention.
