Mr. Bradette upholds the case for routâ€" ing the Transâ€"Canada highway by the Ferguson road and west from Cochrane. He shows this to be the logical route and the most economical one.

To the Editor of Tcronto Saturday Night Dear Sir:â€"It must have been quite a surprise to a good many of your patâ€" rons when they read the editorial artiâ€" cle published in the "Saturday Night" issue of the 20th inst., entitled "Where will the National Highway Run?" to note your limited knowledge of the exact situation in regard to that road as applicable to the northern section of Northern Ontario. Anyone who has studied and knows of that situation fully realizes that the northern routâ€" ing of the Transâ€"Canada highway, via North Bay, Cochrane, Hearst and westâ€" ward of that town along the C. N. R., is the most logical on account of lower costs of construction, shorter mileage and also for its scenic attractions In the matter of construction costs alone, millions of dollars could be saved by the province and the country. According to all appearances FPrance | continues to be in a better condmon‘ than any of the other European counâ€" { tries. One authority states that her| invisible exports yield a credit balancei of $520,000,000. If her commercial imâ€"| ports exceed her trade exports by $400,â€" | 000,000, she is still on the right side by | $120,000,000. ' â€"The reasons for this happy state of affairs are fairly pilain. The territorial acquisitions resulting from the war enable France to sell eighty million dollars‘ worth of potash and steel a yvear. The reparations in kind which she receives from Gerâ€" many also enable her to economize in her purchases abroad. The second and perhaps the most important reason is that the Republic decided on an economic revival after the war before anything else. She reâ€" built her factories and equipped them with the most modern machinery and the farmers were supplied with those agricultural implements which previâ€" ously they had never used. not object to a member changing his trade when there is no work in his parâ€" ticular calling. If Great Britain had proceeded along these lines instead of putting financial reconstruction first and trying to solve the social probiem next, the French beâ€" lieve that she would not have the unâ€" employment she has today. The same holds good for Germany. Sudbury Starâ€"A pessimist is one who worries because there is nothing to worry about." As for the scenic aspects of the quesâ€" tion, again the points are in favour of the northern route. Apparently, you have never travelled over the Ferguson highway from North Bay to Cobalt, where the scenic beauties of that secâ€" tion of the province are unrivalled anyâ€" where on the continent, and I have heard that statement repeated time and time again by motorists who had visited it; you decidedely have not traversed what is called the Clay Belt or the ogriâ€" cultural district of New Liskeard, Cochâ€" rane and Hearst, nor the mining areas of Kirkland Lake, Porcupine and Red Lake, or the industrial centres of Iroâ€" quois Falls, Smooth Rock Falls and Kapuskasing, and the same scenic wonders that are revealed along the presently constructed section of the road are just as existent and in the same profusion, all the way from Hearst to the Manitoba border. In their turn French manufacturers are careful not to produce more than the market can consume. In this they are aided by the trade unions, which do Member for This Riding Points Out Why he Considers Ferguson Highway Should be on Route of Transâ€"Canâ€" ada Highway.

As for the enterprise and aggressiveâ€" ness of the citizens of Sault Ste. Marie, we have no quarrel and in fact we adâ€" mire them for their activities. In that we have not yet as large an amount of population as they have, we do not seem to be able to get the same publicâ€" ity from the daily press as they do, but this cannot be used as an argument against us and should not prevent us from receiving the same amount of atâ€" tention as any other section, on that score. At least we have the right to exâ€" pect that no unfair fallacies should be used against out section of the province "In a letter received from him about a month ago he said that football has the country by the ears. From his deâ€" scription of the interest which the Uruâ€" guians have developed in soccer it is surmised that a little revolution would be a mere sideline. In fact, it is just possible that football caused the revoâ€" lution. He reports attending a game, national playdown affair, where such feeling developed that the whole army of Uruguay was obliged to turn out to prevent wholesale bloodshed. As an evidence that they take their soccer seriously, Jim says that a regulation was put in force demanding personal search of spectators before being allowâ€" ed on the grounds. The soldiers reâ€" moved over 600 deadly weapons from the crowd. "Jim McMillan, well known in the North through his association with the mines in.the capacity of inspector, has been in Uruguay working for the govâ€" ernment for the past few years. He has done very well there, and although he has not been heard of since the reâ€" voluntion a few weeks ago it is believed by his friends that he would survive any little disturbance like that. We of the North maintain with logic, and substantiate our opinion with solid arguments, that the northern routing is the most logical and pPactical one and coming back to the question of costs which is of primary importance, we still have vividly in our mind what was said with regard to the construcâ€" tion of the C. P. R. That that instituâ€" tion almost "Went Broke‘" in the buildâ€" ing of its road on the north shore of Lake Superior. In its column of "Grab Samples‘" last week The Northern Miner has the folâ€" lowing of interest:â€" MINING MAN SAYS FOOTBALL MAKING HIT IN URUGUAY Let us all be logical and reasonable in dealing with this important question. Let us treat it in a broad national way, always having in mind the spirit of fair compromise that will make us conâ€" sider that problem from every angle, and which could be solved in a way that would be fair to all parties, and certainly no good will be attained in pitting one section against the other in an acrimonious verbal or written battle or the using of false arguments that might prejudice public opinion, if it is not properly enlightened on the exact situation. To my viewpoint, the most acceptable way to deal with that‘ question would be for the authorities, provincial and federal, to call a meeting of all the parâ€" ties interested, having if possibe all the municipalities represented in neutral centre, let us say like North Bay, and if necessary the Governments to defray the expenses of the delegates, and after, a thorough discussion of the problem, to arrive at definite conclusion which I have no doubt, would be acceptable to all parties concerned. Yours very truly, Joseph A. Bradette RUMMAGE SALE, AUSPICES OF DAUGHTERS OF ENGLAND Several references have already been made by The Advance to the trip across the Dominion by H. F. Needham, of Toronto, who for a probable prize is attempting to prove that a trip can be made across Canada by motor car within a specified time and without using roads across the boundary line. Mr. Needham started in the far east and had no difficulty in travelling through the Maritimes and Quebec and reaching North Bay without misadâ€" venture or delay. Indeed, he reachec Cochrane ahead of schedule, and found the road from Cochrane to Kapuskasâ€" ing in good shape. Between Kapusâ€" kasing and Hearst there was a strip of unfinished roadway that added some piquancy to the journey that far but did not present any serious difficulty. Mr. Needham had it figured out that the real part of his journey would comâ€" mence at Hearst, and he spent a couple of days at Hearst making preparations for the more difficult sector of the trip. It would appear that at Hearst he arâ€" ranged to have Gus McManus, former mayor of that town and prominent in board of trade circles, accompany him on the more difficult part of the Transâ€" Canada journey, that stretch of country between Hearst and the Manitoba sysâ€" tem of roads. In this stretch of counâ€" try there are no roads and for several hundred miles it will be nscessary for the Transâ€"Canada motorist to break a trail for himself. It is doubtful If Mr. Needham could have secured a better man than Mr. McManus to accompany him. Mr. McManus is an oldâ€"timer of the North, knows the ibush thoroughly and from his wide experiences as a prospector is a most valuable man in new country. If the trip is made in safety and with success The Advance for one will be tempted to ascribe the greater part of the credit to Mr. Mcâ€" Manus. As a member of the staff of the Northern Development Department for some time and from his general experience in the North, Mr. McManus should be practically invaluable in a case like this. TRANS CANADA MOTORIST MEETING WITH ADVENTURE Gus McManus, of Hearst, With H. F. Nceedham on His Trip Across Canâ€" ada by Car. Some of the Adâ€" ventures Already Encounâ€" tered. Two weeks ago, Mr. Needham left Hearst to continue his trip across the Dominion. As Mr. McManus was one of the delegates of the meeting of the Northern Ontario Associated of Trade at Cochrane on Tuesday, Sept. 16th, and did not leave Cochrane until that evening, it must have been at least the 17th before Mr. Needham could leave Hearst if Mr. McManus accomâ€" panied him. Although week or so out from Hearst there was no definite word from the expedition last week unâ€" til towards the end of the week. Last Friday, however, there was word at Hearst reporting the progress of the unusual motor trip. A despatch from Hearst on Friday last said that blazing a motor car trail across Canada is slow work, H. F. Needham, Calgary motorist has discovered. Word brought out 0o: the bush by foresters showed that the pioneer on the allâ€"Canada motor route was steadily piercing the 600 miles of wilderness which separates him from the next road link. Wednesday last week Needham and his assistani, Gus McManus, cut five miles of trail and Thursday they rlanâ€" ned to motor over it. McManus stood on one end of the homeâ€"made structure with a movie camera while Neeham piloted the car across his first attempt at bridge buildâ€" ing. Midway across there was a crash. The car smashed through. The whole structure > collapsed. McManus was thrown from his perch into the stream. But the bridge is crossed now and the main worry of the train blazers is whether or not the film of the first disaster was ruined when cameraman and camera were given a bath. The day before they crashed into a bear pit and spent an hour getting out. Then they had to build bridge to cross a stream. LAKE SHORE MINES NOW AFTER LOWEER SCALE OF COSTS Despatches last week from Kirklanc Lake say that a drive toward lower costs is to be made from this date forâ€" ward on Lake Shore Mines. The fact that profits during the past fiscal year reached nearly $5 per ton, is not conâ€" sidered good enough by those who are guiding the destiny of the mine. The reason for the profits not being higher is because of the heavy expenditure inâ€" volved in construction as well as in deepening of shafts. A change in minâ€" ing methods along the line of that made at MciIntyre and other mines is expected to modify dilution and bring the average grade of ore to a higher level. The larger mill and general imâ€" provements is expected to increase the percentage of recovery. The full deâ€" tails relative to Lake Shore at this time would indicate every reason to exâ€" pect profits from this date forward will reach at least $7 per ton. For Sure Results Try Our Want Ad.
