N. 0. Commission and Extension To James Bay Also Before Mesting at Belleville. The seventh annual convention of the Ontario Associated Boards of Trades and Chambers of Commerce will be held this year at Belleville on Nov. 25th and 26th. At this Provinâ€" cial gathering several questions of special importance to the North Land will be discussed. Chief among these will be the proposed North Land High way from North Bay to Cochrane, Iroquois Falls and Timmins, Among the leaders of the Boards of Trades and Chambers of Commerce in Old On ‘drio the proposed North Land Highâ€" way seems to have found special supâ€" port and favour. <At first sight it might apear that the Boards of Trade of Old Ontario in general were about co get behind this part of the New Onâ€" ario and boost for the proposed highâ€" way, in which case there would be zreat hope of bringing such pressure to ‘bear on the Government that an ecarly start on the highway might ‘be ‘loped for. (But it is not actually a hopeful as that. While the Ontanu Boards of Trade are apparently in favour of the North Land Highway and will likely advocate the building f the same, there is also suggestion that they want something else. They favour a trunk highway between Toâ€" ronto and North Bay. ‘This will, perâ€" confuse the main issue,â€"the building of a North Land Highway. If the two proposals are equally enâ€" dorsed the chances are that the Govâ€" etnment will give the carliest attenâ€" tion to the North Bay to Toronto one. The North Land is in actual and presâ€" ent need for its highway, but Old Onâ€" tario can worry along with the present roadways from Toronto to North Bay As a consequence of the pressing North Land need, the North Land mgnway snould DC dealt with first. But ly when there are must wait.> In this case, if Chere is a proposition for a trunk road Toronto to North Bay and a plan for a highâ€" way from North Bay to Cochrane, Iroâ€" quois Falls and Timmins, judging from too many past â€" experiences, North Land people will be afraid that the North Land highway will ‘be shelyvâ€" ed until the Old Ontario trunk road is built. However, everybody in the North Land should at least hope for the best. It is something in any case to have the North Land Highway disâ€" cussed and considered at the convenâ€" tion of the Ontario Boards of Trades and Chambers of Commerce,â€"an assoâ€" ciation representing all the Boards of Trade and similar ‘bodies in the Proâ€" vince of Ontario. mlust wAait. proposition to North B way from There are other matters of special North Land interest to come before the convention at Belleville on Nov. 25th and 26th.. For instance, the ques tion of a petition to the Ontario Goâ€" vernment urging the extension of the T. N. O. to James Bay will be disâ€" cussed. Here again, perhaps, the more important matters are not reâ€" ceiving due emphasis. The building of a (branch from Timmins to join up with the C. N. R. near Sudbury is a much more pressing need and of much more pressing importance at the preâ€" sent time than the extension of the railroad to James Bay. <If one or the other is to wait the James Bay extenâ€" sion can and should wait for the imâ€" mediate present. This attitude does not jby any means indicate any opâ€" position to the James Bay extension. It simply means that the conneection with the C.N.R. at Sudbury is of more nressing importance for the imâ€" mediate present, and should receive the first attention. The bulding of a line from Timmins to join up with the C.N.R. near Sudbury would give a noteworthy and immediate impetus to the development of the mineral and forest resources of a section of the North now known to be rich in its reâ€" sources and possibilities. This country on the other hand, would not be speâ€" ndâ€"nceed, the Norta should ‘be eonsidered first.

From this review of the matters to come before the annual meeting of the Ontario Associated Boards of Trade it will be seen that the North Land this year has received some deserved atten tion.
