Canadian Control of Nickel for World Peace In discussing the proposed merger of the International and Mond Nickel companies, The Maile and> Empire this week says:â€" "Oanadian control of International Nickel, gained by a spectacular battle on the stock exchanges of Toronto, Montreal and New York, is but a part of Great Britain‘s policy to ensure world peace by dominating the source of supply of one of the essential impleâ€" ments of war. While the public watchâ€" ed the sensational rise of nickel on the money markets, the significant move back of it all was a British fight for peace; and the results will be worldâ€" wide.

E. C. Ward, Dis. Man., Cochrane A, W. Pickering, General Agent, Timmins, Ont. talk about Insurance local credence on Saturday, and when Mr. J. Y. Murdoch returned from New York he confirmed it as the impression of the big financiers of that city. "‘The Internationalâ€"Mond negotiaâ€" tions are still in progress, according to New York g,uthorities with a likelihood that the deal will be completed this week. + "The skirmish in the world‘s drama of peace was fought out on the money markets. It has been under way for several months, but all the public saw of it was the gradual rise of nickel and last‘s weeks fireworks. The general story which has gained credence in New York is that it all began nearly two years ago when the British Chemiâ€" cal Commission made its report to the British Government. Sir Alfred Mond (Lord Melchett) was chairman of the commission. Two points of marked significance to the British Empire and to the peace of the world were indiâ€" cated by the commissioners. "One was that, during the Great War, Canadian nickel went to the United States, and prior to the advent of the States in the war it may have gone to Germany. Charges were freeâ€" ly made at the time that it did reach enemy territory. The second discovâ€" ery was that in the event of future wars the British Empire would be in a bad way so far as copper was conâ€" cerned. "so the wheels began to turn. Briâ€" tish interests found a source of copper in the form of a contract with Noâ€" randa. Then Canadian interests gainâ€" ed control of International Nickel, wresting it from the States through market plays. Those are the two big moves which have followed the findâ€" ings of the British Chemical Commisâ€" sion‘ ,and rumour has it that there are more to come. In fact J. Y. Murdoch, recently returned from New York, deâ€" clared that the future would be well worth watching. The leading Canaâ€" dians credited with controlling Interâ€" national Nickel are Sir Herbert Holt, John â€"W. McConnell and James A. Richardason."

TORONTO NEW RECORD 5FT 1M GOLD PRODUCTION IN Output in 1927 Valued at $38,300,464, as Compared with $36,263,110 for the Previous Year. sources in Canada amounted to 1,852,â€" 785 fine ounces valued at $38,300,464 as against an output of $1,754,228 fine ounces valued at $36,263,.110 in 1926, according to figures compiled at the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. This output established new record. The 1927 production was made up from the following sources; Fine gold contained in crude bullion made by gold mines, 1,638,149 ounces, alluvial gold, 38,131 fine ounces, fine gold in blister copper and base bullion made by Canadian smelters, 41,186 ounces; estimated recovery of gold in ores and concentrates exported to foreign smeltâ€" ers, 135,221 fine ounces; and 98 fine ounces from miscellaneous sources. Six provinces ‘and the Yukon proâ€" duced gold as follows: Nova Scotia, 3.151 fine ounces; Quebec, 8331 fine ounces; Ontario, 1627,050 fine ounces; Manitoba and Alberta, 224 fine ounces, British Columbia, 183,094 fine ounces, YÂ¥ukon, 30,935 fine eunces. THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO Part of the Quebec gold was reâ€" covered in blister copper at the Noranâ€" da smelter and the remainder was conâ€" tained in concentrates exported from the Tetrault silverâ€"leadâ€"zinc mine. In Ontario, the Porcupine area contriâ€" buted 1,154,120 fine ounces; Kirkland Lake produced 468,008 fine ounces; Sudbury district copperâ€"nickel ores yielded 4,866 fine ounces and 56 ounces were derived from other sources. The output from the Porcupine camp showed a slight gain over the total for 1926 and the Kirkland Lake camp produced 35 percent. more gold than in the preceding year. Prospecting and development work in Manitoba was carried on actively durâ€" ing the year and the Central Maniâ€" toba mine was brought to the producâ€" tion stage in the closing months. From 1858 to 1892 British Columbia‘s output of gold was derived exclusively from alluvial deposits; in recent years lode gold has become of much greater imâ€" portance. In 1927 recoverable gold in ores and concentrates exported from British Columbia amounted to 119,687 fine ounces;.gold in blister copper and base bullion â€"produced reached 39,434 fine ounces; gold from free milling ores, 16,620 fine ounces and alluvial gold, 7,353 fine ounces. In the Yukon 30,778 fine ounces were recovered from alluâ€" yvial deposits and the remainder was contained in ores exported. In point of value among Canadian mineral products gold holds second place, being surpassed only by coal. Gold output values represent 15.5 per cent. of the total mineral production of the Dominion. As a world producer of gold Canada ranks third; the Union of South Africa and the United States occupy first and secoind places, respectâ€" ively. ANOTHER EXAMPLE GIVEN OF THE VENIOT D LADY JUDGES WOULD NOT STAND FOR ANY BOSSNG The London Free Press says:â€" "Tuesday morning the Free Press published a dispatch from Otterville from a staff correspondent, who found that political interference had been responsible for the summary ousting after 16 years of faithful service and just befor ehis pension was due, of an obscure rural mail carrier. It is a pitiâ€" able state of affairs when political inâ€" fuence can be used to upset such picayune appointments,. Although a Government servant may perform his duties well and faithfully over a long period of years, there can be no feeling At a meeting of one of the young people‘s societies of a Sudbury church recently there was a debate on the question "Resolved that it tis all right for women to smoke." Those on the affirmative entered the debate just for the sport of the thing but fully conâ€" vinced before they started that though they spoke with the tongues of angels they had no chance of getting the deciâ€" sion with the audience there would be present at a church affair. However, they did their best and made out of safety or security so long as petty politicians are allowed to say who shall enter or remain in the service of His Majesty‘s Government in Canada. This disgusting case of a faithful worker given a raw deal as reward for good service, points to a system rotten with politics." good case for the affirmative, though, perhaps, they would have been shocked very much if any of the ladies had lit a fag while weighing the pros and cons of the debate. Contrary to exâ€" pectations, however, the affirmative won the debate. The negative side spilled a lot of talk along the idea of keeping women in their place and to the effect that man was a superior sort of animal and had privileges acâ€" cordingly more than possessed by the ordinary min of women. The lady judges did not say, "Now, just for that sort of guff, you lose the debate." No, they were too ladylike. They pointed out that the negative in the debate had opened up another argument and wandered completely from the issue. Accordingly. the lady judges put the negatives side orators in their places which was in the "also ran" class. The two morals to be drawn from the deâ€" bate and its outcome are that men always lose out when they ttry to put women in their place, and that women Production of gold in 1927 from all man can‘t stop them anyway.

The run is closely supervised and checked at the several controls, and scoring is on the basis of economy in fuel conâ€" sumption and freedom from troubles. The roads for this course are described as being "not too good." The contestants this year numbered fifteen, of which thirteen were Ameriâ€" can (U.S.) cars. A Lancia (Italian) and a@ Mercedes (German) were the European entries. Altogether nine different makes were represented. The prize for the best performance of all four classes wermrt to Roberto Thiry, who piloted a fourâ€"speed Graâ€" hamâ€"Paige model 614, and finished with the best total score. Thiry, who was in the class for professional drivers with cars of less than 25 rated horseâ€" power, thus won the coveted Washingâ€" ton Luis trophy. The prize for protessionals driving cars of more than 25 rated horseâ€" power..was won by Jose Armentano, who drove a fourâ€"speed Grahamâ€"Paige model 619. In the amateur class, A.
