Thursday, Aug. 28th, Recommendations Made to Relieve Unemployed (From The Mail and Empire) The twelve recommendations made by the Employment Service Council of Canada are all practicable and would prove remedial if acted upon by the governments concerned. The council takes the commonâ€"sense view that reâ€" sponsibility for the relief of unemployâ€" ed persons in a time of trade depresâ€" | sion rests not solely on this or that public authority, but ought to be jointâ€" ly shared by municipal, provincial and | federal administrations. This declaraâ€" tion of the council will, we hope, put an end to attempts such As those oni the part of the late Dominion Govern~ | ment to shirk its part of the duty of | providing for the victims of an epideâ€" mic of unemployment.

It calls on these authoritiee to comâ€" mence or continue work of a permanent character on buildings, bridges, wharâ€" ves, railway terminals, subways, railâ€" way, crossings, and other needed. public construction and maintenance work. It asks them to use their influence with private corporations and individuals to carry on undef‘akings projected by these. It asks all governing bodies to go as far as possible in the way of anâ€" ticipating their requirments by placâ€" ing advance orders for supplies and equipment of all kinds produced in this country, and it urges private charitabile agencies to do their part in cases where prompt action is necessary. The public authorities that are thus 'j advised to minister to the relief of the unemployed are already showing themâ€" selves well disposed to do so. The Doâ€" minion Government is assembling parâ€" l ‘ liament in special session to deal with | the unemployment situation. The proâ€" | vinces notably, the Province of Onâ€" tario, are giving the case of their unâ€", employed their very serious attention. Large sums are being expended on road and other construction by several of the | provinces, largely for the purpose of | creating work for people who are now idle. And the urban municipalities are | not unheedful of the wants of their| 'unemployed. To the credit of Canâ€" adian human nature, we hear little! these days of the objections of the | severe school of economists who would! let the unemployment trouble run its| ccurse, who are always fearful of "pauâ€" | perizing‘" people hy relief measures. | After all, could it be an economic erâ€" ror to go ahead now with public unâ€" dertakings that will have to be carriecn out some time in the near future? The cost of these works is never likely to be less than it would be now. Moreover, in times of slackness, is it not well to prepare for times of prosperity? If there is much unemployment now, there is likely to be, before long, abundâ€" ance of work in the natural course of this country‘s development; and, for that time of activity, is it not wise to make preparations now? The overâ€" spreading of the province with gooc rcoads, the carrying out of the great plans of street extension and improveâ€" ment in this city, not only will afford employment to our people who now need work, but will put the province and the city on a footing to go forward rapidly when the times change for the better. t on o mm mm mm mmmmmmmnicn n mc e Cincinnati Enquirer:â€"If men are goâ€" ing to have to do their own darning and mending they are going to have to make needles with eyes about eight times the size they are.

Jack Miner, the wellâ€"known nature lover, of Kingsville, Ont., who has writâ€" ten many interesting and helpful letâ€" ters for The Advance, has sent the foiâ€" Jowing article to The Advance this week:â€" "During my extensive travels, meetâ€" ing with about all classes of bird lovâ€" ers and sportsmen, I certainly do get a variety of opinions about birds and‘ animals, but all agree on this one point that education has practically stopped humanity from destroying song and insectivorous birds and our Cardinals, Scarlet Tanagers, Gold Finches, Swalâ€" lows, Brown Thrushes, Wax Wings anc ihundreds of other loving, cheerful, |\ winged creatures are scarcely shot at ‘all today, where twentyâ€"five or fifty | years ago everything was shot down.

Remember, I don‘t get my knowledge from the city or out of books, possibly written for some purpose, but I get my knowledge from the woods and the field, and I am right here to tell the world we have ten times more hawks and owls than we need, and if I could reduce these birds of prey ninety per cent. I would do is right this minute, for these birds of prey are the direct cause of our cheerâ€" ful birds not increasing.

W. Gordon. Civil Servants Forbidden to Work at Outside Work. About the Empire Economic Conference in Hamilâ€" A Ottawa, August 26, (Special to The Advance. While the organization stage has not yet been passed by the new government a beginning indicative of yialicy has been made. Immigration has been stopped as a contributary factor in unemployment. Only those equipped with sufficient funds to provide for themselves and, perhaps, furnish work for people alâ€" ready here, will be admitted until econâ€" omic conditions have righted themâ€" selves. An agreement has been reached beâ€" tween the grain growers, the Western Provinces, the Bennett Government and the Bankers‘ Association as to the method to be followed in financing the present year‘s wheat crop. A decision has been taken to limit the early session of Parliament to measures immediately concerned with temporary relief of unemployment through this fall and winter. Civil servants have been advised that they will not. in future, be permitted to work for other employers, a course which will release many hundred posiâ€" tions for people now out of employment. The Canadian Government, while reâ€" cognizing in Britain the greatest poâ€" tential market for farm produce, is not biind to octher opportunities. A careâ€" ful survey of the commerce of other nations has been instituted. Where imports of a character indigenous to Canada appear, efforts will be made to reach mutually beneficial trade agreeâ€" ments. In that connection a close study is to be made of Canada‘s existâ€" ing trade treaties. Several of them are scheduled for cancellation unless thne cther parties to them are willing to reâ€" vise their attitude towards our main The ban on immigration is a produc: _of eccnomic conditions which came as A ilegacy from the King Govemment.l Until work is provided in Canada fori Canadians there is to be no influx. from other lands. That is the policy and a careful check will be kept upon those who furnish the required finanâ€" cial qualifications, to prove that the money is not placed in their hands simply to permit them to evade immiâ€" I gration regulations. 4 i Restriction of business at the special session of Parliament, now being called, to emergency unemployment relief has two explanations. Confined to that isâ€" sue the session can be limited to about two weeks, enabling the legislation to become effective in time to deal with the fall and winter problem.
