Todd, in which appeal was made 'to all lovers of nature and wild life to assist in preserving Frederick-house Lake as a breeding and feeding place for wild d‘uok. Great interest has been shown in Mr. Todd’s letter. “That’s the stuff!†said one “hunter. “Good for J. R. Todd!†commented an- other. There Were many compli- mentary references to the good pur- pose of such a letter and praise for the good sportsmanship and spirit of 'Mr. Todd in taking the time and trouble to battle for -the preservation of the wild ducks of Frederickhouse. Now, all this is veny nice, no doubt,. But it is not near enough. There must be something more than just interest or praise or approval. All inter- ested must actually â€and actively get behind ‘Mn. Todd in his efforts. There must be 'active co-operation. Mr. Todd has rplainly outlined the situation. No one denies the facts as he gieves - them. There is ‘ very general agreement that unless something isdone, it will the. a 'very short time before there will be no wild ducks in this .part of the North. Fort Con.

In writing some time ago on the proposed Pu'lpwood Embargo, The Advance pointed out that the thee-'5' that the embargo would fonce U. S. mills to move to Canada was a rather far~fetehed one. 'This (point is tak~ en up in extended way in the follow- ing letter from “Economist,†who contributed a few weeks ago a help- ful letter on the Pulpwood Embango question. “Economist†writes as follows :â€"â€"- A fertile source of new legislatide proposals is always found in those developments which sagaciOus people think themselves able to foresee. 12 their fonesight iB good, there can he no more valuable guide. But there is always a high degree of risk thtit they are anticipating what ‘would jus- tify their pet proposals, rather than shaping their proposals by what sound reasoning would anticipate. Here’ is an example. Part of the case which has 'been so widely ad- vanced for] a pulp“ ood embargo turnsi upon hypothetical action by Arne1 1- can users; of paper, if their suppl) of such material for their purposes should be stopped 1by legislation in Canada. \Ve are assured that an im- -1nediate result would 1be the establish- ment in these Canadian provinces 1!. papen mills that would give employ-5 ment at American expense to a multi- tude of Canadian workman. A glow- ing pmspect indeed! \Ve are pro- mised that by cutting off one channel of trade me should secure anothar whose proï¬ts would be far greater and far more extensively enjoyed. An old writer invented the namel “Hypothetics†for “the science of what might have happened, {but did not.†Let us beware lest it is in Hypothetics that we shall turn out to have been dealing. Sacriï¬ce~ of a present good for something on a larger scale that we might expect in the future is a sacniï¬ce to be made only{ after very careful analysis. We! may easily ï¬nd that we have giv- en up something actual in exchange for something dependent on prospects never to be fulï¬lled. Whether those American companies will *be driven to set up mills for the manufacture of paper in Eastern Canada will be de- termined just by the commercial ad- vantage of such (policies to themselves. Unless our lbest thinkers are gravely mistaken, we shall not by the expedi- ent of an embargo have forced the United States paper companies into any such difï¬cult cornen as 'we may sulppose. If they cannot get pulp- wood from Canada, will they really have no alternative except to make their own paper on our soil? 'There are other ways in which they can meet the situation. The sooner we get out of our minds the odd delusion that Canada has a monopoly in wood, the sooner we shall .be able to judge this issue with clearâ€" neBs. Evidence given before the Pulpwood Commission made it abun- dantly plain that United States oper- ators can get large quantities from 'their own forests. Further reserves are available through adaptation of types of wood not hitherto used in the paper industry, and as yet Alaska is untouched. Nor is this all. â€Toâ€"day they can buy European pulp cheaper than they can manufacture Canadian wood. Once we start a contest, every channel hitherto neglected will the de- velopea as it has never been develop- ed before. For the sake of winning, our .powerful neighbours would n-‘l douibt even submit to some temporary inconvenience. In a trade war, as in other wars, anyone can start it, but only the side that has the most re- sources can say when it will stop. And that side will stop only on its own temns. No one seems to desire that. Mr. Todd suggests a plan to remedy the present conditions. All he asks is the co. ested. "'I'smMr.’ Todd going to get the help of other sportsmen in this matten? It is up \to the other sports. If you are interested in the Wild life of this «land; if you are a sports- man; if you are a loven of nature; if you would like to see the North Land hold its own; just sit down and drop a line to :Mr. Todd, and follow your line with your heartiest suppont and cooperation. That will: assuredly mean that Frederickhouse Lake will 'be preserved as a breed- ing and feeding place for waterfowl, ï¬nd a notewonthy service will be conferred upon this part of the North.
