Unusually Heavy Air Blast Shakes Lake Shore Mine A despatch from Kirkland Lake this week says that investigation on Sunday disclosed many tons of rock caved in but no injurics resulted when an unâ€" usually heavy air blast shook ‘the 2,200â€" foot level of the Lake Shore mines. Air blasts are frequent in the mines of the district, but the Lake Shore one was felt all over town. <The 25 workers on the level, however, were out eating a meal when the blast and subsequent rock fall occurred and all escaped. Outside of the odd picture shaken from the wall, no damage was done and no glass was broken in the town. The shock led to erroneous reports per, cent. of the population and pay probably 6 per cent. of the assessment." Albert..Serre, Frenchâ€"Canadian atâ€" "torney, branded the councilior‘s stateâ€" ‘ments as "absolutely untrue."

The matter was discussed at a recent meeting of the Teck township council and this was followed by other disâ€" cussion. It seemed to be the opinion of the township council at Kirkland Lake that there should be a close checkâ€"up on all matters relating to relief, with a view to reducing the costs. The counâ€" cil at Kirkland seemed to feel that too many transients were being given reâ€" lef there. This is also the case in Timmins where hundreds have been fi¢cking in with the hopes of getting help. In some cases it is impossible to avoid some help. Then the transients stay on and the town has to continue to support them. In this respect Kirkâ€" land Lake has been hard hit. The opening there of a soup kitchen and the other methods used to deal with the situation some time ago seemed to attract the wrong sort of transients. Costs Too High, Says Reeve O‘Meara. Anyway, Kirkland Lake now looks as if it were to have an enquiry into relief matters, while another dispute has also arisen as will be seen by the following Canadian Press despatch:â€" â€""Something must be done," Reeve G. D. O‘Meara stated. "Our relief costs are too high. It is costing $81,â€" 000 for direct relief this year, Ooneâ€" third of which this municipality must At a recent meeting of Council, Councillor Fraser declared: "All those applying for relief should take an oath as to where they had lived previously and how long they lived here and paid rent here. I understand that 50 per cent. of those on relief are French and yet the French people comprise not 15 Councillior Max Kaplin stated he was in favour of a closer checkâ€"up than was in practice in the relief office. "‘There are too many flocking in," he said in commenting on the heavy relief expenses.

A notice elsewhere in this issue from T. F. Sutherland, acting deputy minister of mines for Ontario, gives official word of the removal of the mining recorder‘s officer from South Porcupine to Timmins. After Jan. 2nd, 1934, the mining recorder‘s office for this district will be located at 59â€"61 Third avenue, [limmins, wilth M. F. O‘Rourke as mining recorder. The office will be in the new building of the Imperila Motors, opposite ‘the Ideal Hardware on Third avenue. The locaâ€" tion of the mining recorder‘s office at Timmins will be a great convenience to. the many prospectors and mining men who make their headquarters at Timmins. As Timmins is the. largest town in the district the location of the Office here seemed to be theâ€" logical move to the authorities, For many years the recording office has been at Bouth Porcupine; previous to that, in the very early days, being at Porcupine.
