Thursday, August, 7th, 1930 Member of the Canadian Canada ... $2.00 per Timmins, Ont., Thursday, August 7th, A reader of The Advance suggests that the new Governâ€" ment might place special tax on all money sent from Canada to foreign countries. It is a wellâ€"known fact that in the Porcupine camp, in all mining camps, and, indeed, all through Canada, there are aliens who through' a course of years send money to their wives or other relatives in some foreign land. The foreigner thus sending money regularly from Canada is not only taking position that could be held by some Canadian or other Britisher, but he is also sending out of Canada money earned here that will go to the supâ€" port and benefit of an alien land. In this camp there are scores of men who have sent out money each pay day for years to support families in foreign countries. This does not : appear to be good business for Canada, and if there is any way it can be remedied or reduced it would be well. A special tax on all remittances from Canada to foreign counâ€" tries would save this country at least a little of its own money,. The plan may not be practical, but in any Case it is worth considering. Too many foreigners use this counâ€" try merely as a convenience to make extra money for the benefit of alien countries. Many send money Over to their native land every week or SO, and many live here only long enough to get a little money together to take overseas with them. If there is any method by which this sort of thing may be stopped, Canada would be benefitted, and if a tax s imnacaa "aAnâ€"an this ‘sort ‘of draining money from benefit of alien countries. Many : native land every week or SO, and enough to get a little money toget them. If there is any method by may be stopped, Canada would be could be imposed on all this sort Canada the advantage would be t The Toronto Star must NA\ the Dominion election returns that in Toronto West Centre t Highest Common Factor. Hon. Peter Heenan, Minister of Labour in the late K'mg! covernment, is quoted as saying that the political machine operating in Northern Ontario is the most corrupt in the world. Hon. Peter may have imagined he said a mouthful, but it does appear that he has opened his mouth too widely and someone has crammed their foot in. It is a wellâ€"known fact that Hon. Mr. Heenan has had no opportunity to get closely acquainted with any political machine except the Liberal one. At a large social affair in London, England, the late Mark Twain, not being accustomed at the time to the pocket in the tail of a frock coat, was walking along in one of the rooms of the house in which he was a guest, with his handkerchief almost dropping from his pocket. "Parâ€" don me, sir‘" said another guest, "but you will lose your handkerchief if you are not careful." Mark hastily stuffed the handkerchief out of sight. "Thanks, ffiend," he said. "You know this crowd better than I do." The New Liskeard Speaker urges the appointment of W. A. Gordon, K.C., newlyâ€"elected member for South Temisâ€" kaming in the Dominion parliament, as the new Minister of Justice in the Bennett administration. Whether Mr. Gorâ€" don is taken into the Cabinet as Minister of Justice or not, there seems to be very general agreement among all who know him that he is certainly excellent Cabinet material. The Bennett administration would be strengthened by the inclusion of such men as W. A. Gordon. He is a lawyer of outstanding ability, a successful business man, a speaker of marked talent, and a man who has kept abreast of public affairs. Not only the North Land, but all parts of the counâ€" try where he is known would be pleased at the appointment of Mr. Gordon to a Cabinet position, knowing that he has the ability and the public spirit to fill such a position with credit to himself and advantage to the country. some people are taking much satisfaction from the fact that none of the communist candidates in the Dominion electicn last week polled any vote worth considering. Reâ€" turns to hand so far suggest that all the communist candiâ€" dates lost their deposits. In Nipissing riding out of a total vote of nearly 20,000 the communist candidate received less than 400 votes.. In Sudbury, where the communist vote was supposed to be unusually strong, the communist candidate only secured 154 votes out of a total of 5376 votes cast. wWith these returns in mind there are many people who are temptâ€" ed to say: "That‘s just what we‘ve been saying! There are practically no communists in this country. The few that hold such views make a lot of noise, but they do not amount to anything." That appears to be an altogether wrong way to look at the communist menace. The small vote for the communists proves nothing except that there are few Canaâ€" dians or other British people following these views. On more than one occasion the parades held at Timmins, Sudâ€" bury and other centres have shown five hundred or more in line under the red flag. The election returns prove clearly that the vile agitation to smash the British form of governâ€" ment and to abolish all religion is being fostered in this country not by Canadians, but by foreigners. Those who have studied the question and investigated the communist activity in Canada know that the whole evil design originâ€" nated in a foreign country and is being financed and fathâ€" ered by this foreign land.

Timmins The following letter received this week by The Advance tells its own Dear Sirtâ€"A few weeks ago your naper asked why these foreign schools exist in Timmins. The answer to your query came out from the mouths of the "*Red" children who paraded Timmins on the evening of August lst. It was noticeable that the procession was comâ€" poaosed mostly of women and children. Probably the men refrained from parâ€" ading on account of fear of getting their time at the mine next day. Had it been men shouting such things as the children were shouting on the streets, things would have assumed a different aspect on the evening of Aug. ist. Such things frem the mouths of men would have excited the loyal townsmen to things they woulid rather Published Every Thursday by: GEO LAKE, Owner and Publisher r Sir:â€"A asked n Timmil came out children AND SANDâ€"AND PLACER TIMMIN®S, ONTARIO PHONESâ€"â€"RESIDENCE 70 anadian Weekly Newspapers Amociafloï¬ Subscription Rates: er year United States.. $3.00 per year ir must have been desperately upset by tion returns, or else it would have noted ect Centre the Liberal candidate was the would be to this country refrain from doing. These children are taught to bite the hand of Canada that is feeding them. This is the graâ€" titude that Canada gets for giving employment to those of Red inclinaâ€" tions. How long is Canada going to allow this razor to be sharpened for her own throat? Welland Tribuneâ€"The civic swimâ€" ming pool is a worthy institution in any community. It will result in savâ€" ing many lives and the monetary outâ€" lay is small in comparison with the conservation programme that it makes possible. The proposal to establish a swimming pool in Welland, for which subscriptions have been requested, seems to have reached only lukewarm support as far as the generai public is concerned. It is possible that a more agâ€" gressive attitude on the part of the committee would yet bring the plan to a successful consummation. minion are not in any doubt as to the actual menace to Canada from the communists. At the convention of the chief constables of the Dominion held at Hamilton last week the leading police officers of Canada expressed their opinions strongly on the matter. They were emphatic in pointing out the danger and urgent need in calling for amendments to the law so that the evil activities of the foreignâ€"paid agitaâ€" tors for the destructive doctrine of communism may be adequately dealt with. The people in general should give the chief constables the fullest support in curbing communâ€". ism. ‘The police know the extent of the evil being done and the public should remember that practically all of the comâ€" munists are foreigners. This has been conclusively proven by the polling in the ridings where there were communist candidates. Is Canada going to allow a group of evil aliens to continue to create disorder and dissatisfaction in this country? If these foreigners do not like Canada, Canadians would be delighted to have them move to some other place I more congenial to them. Certainly at present Canada has tco many foreigners, and would be much better off with thousands less of these illâ€"balanced aliens. It is too much to expect Canadians to forego positions to give work to these foreigners and then allow these aliens to proceed unmolestâ€" ed to undermine the government and religion of this country. site x *# the public should remember that practicail munists are foreigners. ‘This has been co by the polling in the ridings where there candidates.

Except at the there seems to be half that many The election of Billy Moore recent Dominion election st need of protection. days may acmM ferences made to the election When Col. Sam Hughes was Minister of Militia he inâ€" augurated the plan whereby armouries were available for cther purposes than simply those of the militia. Col. Sam Hughes believed that as the people in general had to pay for such buildings as armouries, the communities in which they were situated should be permitted to use the buildings for community purposes that did not conflict with their special purpose. Following this plan the town of Renfrew for example has a fine militia building that is used for agriâ€" cultural fair and other purposes on occasion. No one loses anything and the community gains. The same is true about the armouries at Haileybury. All of this is but a preface to the sugzestion that an armouries might be built in Timâ€" mins. The Algonquin Regiment has a good company in this camp, and with an armouries might fairly be expected to maintain still greater strength and efficiency. An armouries building could also be used with advantage for many comâ€" munity purposes here. Its construction would be effective in assisting relieve uneimployment. There may be other matâ€" ters more pressing but the question is worth at least a passâ€" ing thought. No doubt there will be large number of public works started in the very near future by the Dominion Government with a view to relieving the large measure of unemployment that has been injuring the country for some time past. Accordingly it is not out of place to suggest |speciï¬c public works along this line. It is true that this ‘riding did not endorse the policy of Hon. R. B. Bennéett in [ recent election, but at the same time it should not be | forgctten that this district has been contributing for some | years past at the rate of a million and a quarter dollars, and {more, per year to the Dominion treasury, and all that has been received in return has been the dock at Mattagami | Landing and the post office building in Timmins. | ! i \ The people who were busy a couple of weeks ago propheâ€" sying as to the result of the elections, are just as busy now foretelling the personnel of Hon. Mr. Bennett‘s Cabinet. Some of them may be right in this, just like all were not wrong in the election forecasts. Newspapers are a nuisance to public men sometlmes Public men often make statements and espouse causes that ten years afterwards they would like to disown. The newsâ€" papers hold them to statements or attitudes that otherwise they would easily disavow. For instance, Hon. Peter Heenan toâ€"day (or at least a couple of weeks ago) would not care to be quoted as advocating the adding of Northwestern Ontario to the province of Manitoba. Yet ten years ago the Honâ€" ourable Peter was quoted as advocating such a proposal. The memory of people in general is not particularly long or esâ€" pecially accurate, and if Hon. Mr. Peter }.{’eenan had been accused during the recent election of urging that a material part of Ontario should be added to Manitoba he would likely have passed the matter off with a denial that would have been as casually accepted, were it not for the fyles of newsâ€" papers that can show interviews of ten years ago. Any newspaper that desires a column o ys may achieve the same by simply reâ€"p rences made by different newspapers the NORTH BAY PITCHER BREAKS ARM WHILE WARMING of the oddest accidents in baseâ€" ball history befell Colenzo Redington, pitcher for the C.P.R. team at North Bay on Saturday last. He was warmâ€" ing up before the fourth innings with the T. N.O. team and was in the act of throwing the ball to the catcher when he fell unconscious in the box. It was found that he had fractured his pitching arm above the elbow. He was taken to the hospital where the arm was duly set. An Xâ€"ray of the injured arm is said to show that the action of the muscles of the arm in the pitching of the ball had actually severed the bone and broke off a piece of the bone several inches in length. The stories about the pitchers "throwâ€" ing their arms out" fade into insigniâ€" ficance alongside this case where a pitcher actually broke his own arm in throwing a baill. re in the riding of Ontario at the shows how badly Canada is in column of humour these mply reâ€"printing the reâ€" japers the week previous THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO port the Ferguâ€" w.
