Thursday, August 13th, 1931 The Toronto Mail and Empire last week says:â€""A group of prominent New York business men arriving in Toronto Monday en route for James Bay, will be the first tourist party to pass over the extenrsion lines of the T. N. O. O. Railway. The party will go to the end of steel on Moose River and then proceed by boat to the bay. The party had originally planned a holiday trip to Arizona, but after reading in an American paper a story of the T. N. O. extension, wrote to Carl Hele, pubâ€" licity director of the province for furâ€" ther particulars, and eventually decidâ€" ed to trek north instead of sou:h."

There may be a rush of tourists to James~"Bay when | ‘the railway is finished but The Advance ‘ believes that any such rush will not be one quarter of what it will be if the; belt line of roads is completed and thus | touris‘s may go North by one rcute and | return by another, thus seeing twice as much of the country and having double the variety on the trip. Everyâ€" thing in this Noerth seems to hinge on the constiruction of the belt line of roads. The completion of a highway ; between Timmins and Sudbury should be undertaken at once.

Burns, president of ‘the International Union of Papermakers; John P. Burke Danger of any such strike was averted by the men asking for a conference in ths matier. The cause of the trouble was the announcement of the Abitibi Co. that starting with August 1st there would be a reduction of five per cent. in wages. wkhne men objected to this cut holding that the cost of living had not come down proportionately at Iroâ€" quois Falls and also that the workers were handicapped by the fact that work was not always fullâ€"time employment as it had been in the years when the wages were accepted as mutually agreoâ€" to all concerned. s« The conference was held on Tuesday and Wednesday of last week at Iroâ€" quois Falls, Despatches from Ircquois Falls say tha the negictations were amicable throughout, and both comâ€" pany officials and representatives of the workers expressed satisfaction with the outcome of the deliberating. It is understood ‘the representatives of the International Unions were empowered to negotiate for all union mills of the Abitibi Company. Reference was made last week to the possibility of a strike in the papermakâ€" ing industry at Iroquois Falls and at other centres in the North where the Abitibi Power Paper Co. has mills.

Our workmen not only continue to be the most skilled in the world, but conâ€" stitute a model for all nations in their willingness to coâ€"operate with their emâ€" ployers for the general gocd. These are factsâ€"not fanilasies. Britain has come through a terrible ordeal, but she stands toâ€"day fourâ€" square to the world, meeting all her commitments, carrying her burdens without a whimp}r, a rock for humanâ€" ity in the time of tempest. America‘s era of massâ€"production prosperity is past its climax. Europs, torn by factionalism, has been set back industrially a decade. It is difficult to explain to them that our wailing pessimists have spread a picture that is totally false. Our manufacturers have gone courâ€" ageously ahead modernising plant and maintaining their historic high standâ€" ard of production. # The Geological Survey, of Mines, Ottawa, has issued a map sheet (No. 276A) of the Thunder Bay silver area showing the geological and geographical features on a scale of four miles to the inch. ‘This shee! is to acâ€" | company a memoir on the area by Dr. ‘ T.

For some time McIntyreâ€"Porcupine ‘!officials have pursued a consisiently Iconservative policy with regard to pubâ€" Mlicity. The view is taken that isolated ore developments were not news, exâ€" !cepit where they indicated the presence ,cf important new ore. As a result Mcâ€" Intyre stock has not been subject to the same fluctuations that have characterâ€" ized the movement of shares in some other companies. Not:withstanding the official silence, however, it can be asâ€" certained that interesting ore developâ€" ments are continuing. The new ore under development in the Platt Vet claim is of great importance, opening up an enlirely new mine of possibilities | in territory east of the Schumacher proâ€" \perty where recent Hollinger developâ€" ments have been promising. Eventualâ€" ly, according to a man who was once | closely associated with the management . of McIntyre, it would not be surprising to see the necessity for a new shaft and surface equipment to extract the ore | from this area. Meanwhile, there is no reason for asâ€". suming, with,the completion of its deâ€" i velopment programme to 4 000 feet, that | this represents the limit of depth to 1 | | which mine development can be carried. At 4,000 feet, the management has ‘ made it clear the same geological conâ€" ditions have been found in which ore bodies are developred on the upper levels, with every indication that these will continue to grea:er depths. Kirkâ€" { land Lake mines are preparing to ex-] tend development to 6,000 fset and 8,090 | feet in depth. Unofficial though well | ‘informed forecasts claim that McIntyre" will be the next large properl:y to unâ€" | dertake extension of its workings downâ€" | ward. In all probabikty such an ex-! tension would take the form of a winze | near No. 11 shaft with underground! hoisting equipment and means of transâ€" ferring the load at 4,000 fee:, making the entire ore hoist from to surâ€" |face in two lifts. On the authority of the best: engin-’ | j he earmarks of a successful preoeducer for many years, but the conservative policy of its president and management is quoted to indicate the likelihood that increasingly large profits wili be earned and these in turn returned to shareâ€" holders. | ’eering observers, not only has McIntyre Sudbury Star:â€"A Detroit man marâ€" ried to three women within one year declares he has no recollection of doing so. This shows the folly of nct keepâ€" ing a diary. f This year it is expected the cumulaâ€" tive value of MciIntyreâ€"Porcupine‘s gold preduction will pass the $50,000,000 lmark. Production until recentiy has ‘been based on the operation of a mill of !1,500 tons daily capacity. Mine develâ€" lopments down to a depth of 4,000 feet ‘have satisfied the management that the continued produciion far exceeded the life expectancy of existing equipment. iThe result was the fine new set of modâ€" l etn fireâ€"proof surface buildings together ! with a new mill designed along specially ‘economical lines, which the visitor toâ€" \day finds grouped in close proximity the new 4,000â€"foo; shaft, known as INC‘. 11 on the north side of Pearl Lake. ’Mclntyre Dividends _ Nearly $10,000,000 \ _ The frequently reiterated fallacy that |\ Ontario gold mines are short lived finds \its own denial in the fact that by Ocâ€" ’tober more than 22 years will have since the discoverypn was made iwhlch later was to develop into one of ‘the more important mines of the North American continent. Even more inâ€" teresting is it to note that after 20 years of almost continuous production the |mine is just now reaching its stride. iThis year has seen the most momentous |and important developments in the his~ ‘ory of the mine, and from a piroductive standpoint has seen the property literâ€" ‘ally entering maturity. N‘any will be surprised to note that tho McIntyre Porcupine Mines, Limitâ€" 3u, has paid close to ten million dollars in dividends to date. Also, it may be noted jhat fortyâ€"nine dividends have been paid by this mining company and that another dividend will be made on Sept. l1st, making it the even fifty. These are some of the facts brought out by Ed. Loney, writer on mining matiers for The Sudbury Star, The North Bay Nugget and other newspapers. In this conngcition Mr. Loney says:â€" On September 1 next, McIntyreâ€"Porâ€" cupine Mines, Limited, will distribute its 50th consecutive dividend to shareâ€" holders, bringing the total of such proâ€" fits returned up to the amount of $9,â€" 865,267. Additional profits, earned but allowed io accumulate as surplus, at March 31, 1931, amounted to $4,643,623. to shareholders withou} interruption and at the current rate of distribution amount to $199,500 quarterly, or a total of $798,000 per annum.
