NORTH BAY For Sale By Berini Motor Sales Wholesale Distributor (GR E E N) the Timmins Board of Trade, mads diligent effort for a week or two to find some member of the local board of trade who would be able to give the time and expense necessary to be presâ€" ent but rno one was able to accede to the request. However, in C. W. Wright, of Englehart, president of the Northern Ontarico Associated Boards of Trade, Arthur Stevens, of Cochrans and Temagami, and others from the North Land, this section of the province was very ably represented, even if the reâ€" presentation was not as large as deâ€" sired by all interested. In additicn to the many questions of special interest to the North, there will be some notice no dowbt given to the fact that two men from this part of the North were elected to the execuâ€" tive of the Ontario Associated Boards o‘ Trade and Chambers of Commerce for the ensuing year. One of these, Mr. Arthur Stevens, of Cochrane and Temagami, has been on the Ontario executive for years and has given such good service in that capacity that it is n> wonder he is reâ€"elected each year. The other North Land man placed on ‘he executive for this year is Mr. C. W. Wright, ‘of Englehart, president of the Northern Ontario Associated Boards of Trade, who is one of the most publicâ€" spirited and able of the citizens of this part of the North. In reference to the election of offiâ€" cers it may be noted that on motion of the Nominating Committes, the followâ€" ing officers were elected for the coming year: President, Fred Newman, Picton; First Viceâ€"President, George Matthews, Brantford; Second Viceâ€"President,.

Smith, Cornwall; Maâ€" jor J. O. Thorn, Toronto, and C. W. Wright, Haileybury. At the opening session of the Ontaâ€" rio Associated Boards of Trade cn Thursday morning last there was A warm debate in which it was charged that the collection of municipal inâ€" come tax was collected. ‘The eventual decision in the matte: was to ask the Ontario Government to investigate this levy with a view to its modification or ultimate eliminaâ€" tion. "It is easy to agree that taxes be eliminated," Mr. Gray said, "because it means immediate relief to taxpayers, but we must consider other things beâ€" sides our own pockets. We must conâ€" sider the requirements of the municiâ€" palities for funds. C. L. Burion strongly advocated a resolution favouring the abolition of the tax on the grounds that it induced industries to locate outside of Ontario rather than here. The contention, however, of Evan Gray of Ottawa, that municipal reveâ€" nue is derived from real estate. busiâ€" ness and income taxes and the remoyâ€" al of one of these sources would overâ€" burden the others, swayed the meetâ€" "The system of municipal income tax is true to the principle of taxation," he contended, "and the fact that it is not administered fairly is not enough to warrant its abolition. It can be adâ€" ministered fairly and effectively bu: that its present administration is not equal or fair I agree." He did not believe that the assoâ€" ciation was justified in voting for the removal of a tax when it did not know the amount of revenue the {ax produced. The discussion on the abolition of the municipal income tax arose from a recommendation contained in the taxation policy presented by the Toâ€" ronto BRoard of Trade urging strict and universal enforcemen:t of th2 inâ€" comeâ€"tax law. In presenting its taxation policy, the Tcoronto Board of Trade asserted that the enfcreemen of an income tax by the federal government and also by municipalities does not constitute double taxation but is only usage of the same method to raise money reâ€" quired for differen‘t classes of service. The recommendations it contained and that were passed by the association were: "Federal taxation: Further reduction in the income ‘tax rates as circumâ€" stances permit and exemption of diviâ€" dends received by of inâ€" corporated câ€"mpani¢és upon the nei profits of which an income tax shall have been paid. "Provincial taxation: "That the gevernment of Ontario be commended for its efforts to bring about uniformity of administration in the provinces of Ontario and Quebec with respect to succession duties and encouraged to expedite the completion of negotiations between these two provâ€" inces for a reciprocal arrangement for ‘the elimination of duplicate taxation, and further, that the governments of all the provinces be strongly urged to take the necessary steps to avoid mulâ€" tiple taxation in the imposition and collection of succession duties. "Municipal taxation: That the Onâ€" tario government be petitioned to amend the assessment act to provide, if practically possible, that municiâ€" palities be permitted to levy the inâ€" come taxe not later than the year folâ€" lowing that in which the income is received, or, in other words, to assess and collect income tax in the same year." It was further recommended that the dominion and provincial governments be requested to consider ways and means of further simplifying the machinery of collection of taxes, referâ€" ring particularly to both federal and, if it is retained, municipal income taxes. Consideration to date of payment is also urged in order to avoid too close coincidence. Renewed eforts should be made to bring about a conference cf representatives from all the proâ€" vinces to agree, if possible, upon common basis or system of taxation, the resolution urged. Contending tkhat business men should have a source from which they could obtain a knowledge of transporâ€" tation, ratemaking, its influence on prices, tariff, and so forth, and transâ€" portation development as exemplified by the St. Lawrence waterways, the Hamilton Chamber of Commerce inâ€" troduced a resolution recommending the establishment of a research bureau for transportation. The resolution was An extension of the ijurisdiction of the railway commission to require pubâ€" lic service companies subject to the Railway act to obtain the approval of that body as to the terms and condiâ€" tions upon which they might issue securities to obtain capital to expand facilities for mesoting public requireâ€" ments recently passed by parliament was held by the assosiation to be a dangerqus precedent. Consequently, a resoluticn wass unâ€", animousB® carried strongly opposing the pringiple involved on the ground thaf such leg ive control is nost in the best c interest. THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO Diccussion arose over recommendaâ€" tion of the Kingston Chamber of Commerce favouring compulsory autoâ€" mobile insurance to protect citizens injured in motor accidents. It was contended that many cheap cars were sold to persons who were unable to pay damages when they beâ€" 'cam'* responsible for accidents. Conseâ€" quently many innocent persons sufâ€" fereda for the carelessness of others and received no remuneration for either property or personal damage. l H. L. Coppley o‘ Hamilton cited an instance where a pedestrian had been injured and had been forced to go to the pocrhouse when the responsible car driver had been unable to pay damages. l J. Laidlaw of Toronto pointed out that a royal commission was at preâ€" sent investigatin‘y the question and was making a thorough survey of the result of the compulsory insurance law enacted in Massachusetts, the safety responsibility law of New York state and similar measures in various secâ€" tions of the United States. He suggested ‘that the government be requested to make provision for a strict enforcement of penalties for reckless driving with a temporary susâ€" pension of licenses in serious Ccases and that the question of compulsory insurance be left to the government commission. Proceeding with the regular resoluâ€" tions on the agenda, it was decided to reccmmend that the Ontario Governâ€" ment institute an Industrial Developâ€" ment Board similar in character and function to the Industrial Board of Manitoba, which has proved of immense value to Winnipeg, as the industrial centre of that Province. This last suggze(fion was adopted with the further impetus given it by W. C. Robertson, Ontario Motor League whoa commented that in his opinion, 90 per cent. of the public does not know what compulsory automobile insurance implies. He declared it means increasâ€" ed taxation and that it is by no means successful. â€" "Ganadian Histories for Use in Public schools" was the subject of the next resolution, and evoked considerable disâ€" cussion. Delegate J. G. Elliott, Kingâ€" ston, in moving this recommendation, said: "Our children should be taught the romance and personality in Canaâ€" dian history rather than merely dated events.‘‘ After various opinions had been expressed, and an=â€"additicn had been suggested by W. A. Morris, Toâ€" ronto, editor of the Canadian School Journal, "that the history of Canada be studied rather as subject than as a book," it was decided to turn the resolution over to the Executive Comâ€" mittee for a comprehensive report thereon. Resolution No. 12 called for a recomâ€" mendation that the Provincial Governâ€" ment "place tourist lodges under superâ€" vision and inspection as is the case with hotels and camps." It was, howâ€" ever, the thought of the delegates that farmhouses now taking care of one or two tourists be not included in the scope of the resolution. Finally, the following amendment was added as a rider to the main motion: "That the CGrovernment consider the advisability of issuing licenses to tourist lodges, on the applications o‘ the proprietors, and for a fee." The depletion of game fish in Ontario waters was effectively set forth by the resolution from the Peterborough Chamber of Commerce. This resoluâ€" tion asking for efforts for conservaâ€" tion of fish was carried. Another resolution from Peterborâ€" ough Chamber of Commerce was also passed. This motion was "to recomâ€" mend to the Department of Highways the early taking over and ultimate completion of that section of Highway No. 7, lying between Peterborough and Ottawa." This would supply a through route from Sarn‘a to Ottawa, and reâ€" lieve materially ~ the congestion on Higzhways Nos. 2 and 3, it was claimed. "The St. Lawrence Waterways and Power Development" was the subjec: of separate advocates, Belleville Chamâ€" ber of Commerce and Prince Edward County Board of Trads (Pictcn), the Theres only one quality MAGIC BAING POWDER and that‘s the highest E.W. GILLETT CO. LTDO. ‘TORONTO, CAN. n Canada former courteusly giving way to the rather more compiechensive provisions of the latter. Fred Newman, Picton, delivered an effective statement in reâ€" gard to the proposed development, pointing out that Ontario is absorbing an additional 140,000 horsepower each passing year. He indicated the necesâ€" sity of the development to the 22 Cenâ€" tral United States, and suggested tha: here was precedent available in asking that the work be proceeded with, mainâ€" ly at the expense of the United States, "until such time as Canada‘s populaâ€" tion and finances warrant equal parâ€" ticipation in the total expense." Delegate G. C. Coppley, Hamilton, expressed the view: "We are not in a position here to make any recommenâ€" dation to the Federal Government in regard to financing this St. Lawrence development." He pointed out that a careful resolution in this connection had bsen passed by the Canadian Chamber of Commerce, calling for the removal of this national problem from the political field, and that the Doâ€" minion Government call into conferâ€" ence the Leaders of the Opposition ang the Leaders in the various Provinces. Mr. Coppley asked that the financial clauses in the resolution be deleted.| It was finally decided to refer the whole matter to the attention of the Execuâ€" tive Committee. One of the questions of very special interest to the North Land was the reâ€" sclution submitted by the Toronto Board of Trade. It read as "Whereas the development of the reâ€" sources in agricultural, forest and mineral wealth o0‘ Northern Ontario is of the greatest importance to the proâ€" vince and to Canada as a whole:â€"â€" Therefore be it resolved that the Onâ€" tario Associated Boards of Trade and Chambers of Commerce strongly enâ€" dorse and support all wellâ€"considered, constructive efforts to promote settleâ€" ment and to develop the vast mineral and forest resources by the most scienâ€" tific and economic methods; And furâ€" ther that in view of the importance of good roads in the settlement and deâ€" velopment of the country and in makâ€" ing the playgrounds of the North easiâ€" ly accessible to tourist traffic, which has reached large proportions and is becoming increasingly valuable each year, the Ontario Government be enâ€" couraged to make liberal provision in their Northern Ontario programme for adequate system of main and branch highways for the accommodation of Sultana Raisins 225 FOR YOUR HEALTH Wheatena ...... i sys THE QUICK DRINK Reindeer Coffee ... .Large Tin BULK YELLOW Corn Mealâ€"............. 4 lbs.

In the absence of J. H. Gundy, who was expected to speak to this resoluâ€" tion, the secretary of the Toronto Board of Trade, Mr. Tolchard spoke to the resolution, pointing out that of the total area of Ontarioâ€"400,000 square mileéesâ€" nineâ€"tenths is in the North and Northwest. The population density in that vast section is one to the square miles. Road mileage now stands at 14,000 miles, and is expanding 375 miles per annum. The rosolution carried unanimously. J. 0. Thorn, Toronto, and J. W. Boll, Oshawa, asked that the delegates agree to the proposition "that public carâ€" riers in motor truck transportation should pay a reasonable charge for the use of the highways should be subjected to stricter regulation in the matter or responsibility for goods entrusted to their care and should be safeguarded against unfair competition." This was done. The importation of used automobiles and motor trucks into ithe Dominion was the final motion to be considered. Chairman Bethune drew attention to the fact that this matter is before the Tariff Advisory Board. The mover, J. R. Dixon, Ottawa, pointed out that the resolution aimed mainly at bringing in these used cars, in quantity, and for resale. It called for an amendment to the Customs Act, "which will result in putting the imported cars and trucks at least on a fair competitive basis with Canadian used cars and trucks of the same models." The matter comes beâ€" fore the Tariff Board next month. The resolution was endorsed. A w4 Currants With the closing of the business of the meetings, the retiring President inâ€" vited the 1930 President, Fred Newman, Picton, to the chair. Cornwall and Windsor representatives invited the meeting to their respective centres next year. This matter, howâ€" ever, is left in the hands of the Exeâ€" cutive Committee, who have also inâ€" vitations from the cities of Port Arâ€" thur and Fort William.
