Mine Industry has Finely Stood Test Hon. W. A. Gordon Pays Tribute to “Very few men in Canada outside of the industry itself seem to know anything about the mining industry. Go into the agricultural districts of Ontario. from which the mining in~ dustry buys quantities of produce. and when you begin to talk mining you will see them wrinkle up ready to shuder at the mention of a broker's office. yet each year the mining industry buys millions of dollars worth of their pro- ducts. *Does not. call at Belffast CHERBOURG-SOUTHAMPTON Dec. 12 Montrose Full Information From Your Local Agent C.

An action to come before the Supreme Court sittings at Haileybury next week will be of interest in this district asthe parties concerned are re- sident in the camp. In referring to the case The Haileyburxian, last week says 2â€" themselves have been delinquent. They do not see that their industry is represented in our legislative halls and in Ottawa. by men who know min- ing operation. "It is very true that Governments can not destroy an industry. just as it is true that they can not make an industry. The best they can do is to introduce laws and regulations which the industry itself suggestsâ€"to help them to markets which they find. It lies with the industry itself to say whether it shall survive and be pros- "An actibn in which damages of $40.- 000 are being asked as the result of injuries sustained by a Schumacher boy who was so seriously injured in an acci- dent there more than a year ago that he lost one leg. has been set down for trial at the Supreme Court sittings here scheduled to open before Mr. Justice Sedgewick on December 8th next. The case has been transferred from Coch- rane at plaintiff’s request, and will be tried before judge and Jury. "Allan Keeley. a minor. and his fath- er. Daniel B. Keeley. mining engineer, are suing Owen L. Evans, of Timmins, claiming that the last named's alleged negligence in driving his automobile resulted in rthe accident to the younger plaintiff. who was riding a bicycle on a. road on the McIntyre mines property an October 11, 1930. Car and bicycle collided. and the leain‘tifis allege that Evans was on the wrong side of the road. that he failed to blow his horn. that brakes and steering gear were de- fective and that he drove “with utter disregard of the rules of the road." “It was necessary to amputate young Keeley‘s right leg in hospital later. the statement of claim sets out. Evans asserts the boy ran his machine into the right front fender of the automo- bile while the machine was standing still. and he claims the boy had no control over the bicycle. which was too big for him. Defendant maintains he blew his horn in warning, but that the boy came on to the road from a side lane. and did not try to stop. He was coasting down hill at an excessive speed. according to Evans." Rec entlx North Bay has had a regu- lar epidemic of false the alarms. Fire Chief Brady at North Bay has called attention to the penalties under the law for turning in false alarms. In Timmins Fire Chief Borland has re- peatedly warned the criminal lack-wits who turn in false alarms. Asks $40,000 Damages for Loss of Young Boy’s Leg Some weeks ago The Advance had an editorial article in which objection was taken to the attitude of the Ontario Government in regard to Northern 0nâ€" tario. It was pointed out that Hon. Wm. Finlayson some months ago told a deputation from Timmins and Bud- bury that he would look after, their un- employed. It was generally expected that as soon as work could be wider- taken on the Trans-Canada highway the troubles of the North would be at an end. The .facts so far are much otherwise. Hon. Mr. Finlayson' now says that the towns must look after their own married men. Not a man had beeh taken up to the end of last week to work on any recognized Trans- Canada highway camp job. In the consideration of the matter it should be particularly remembered that the North is in altogether different situa- tion from all the centres in the South in the matter of unemployment. Take Timmins. for instance! Here there are a thousand more men at work than a year or so ago, but still several hun- dred out of work. This means, of course, that a couple of thousand men have come from outside points where they were thrown out of employment and crowded into Timmins to add to tn;s list of unemployed or to take the jo of men already here. In the opin- ion of The Advance the responsibility for the unemployed here is on the proâ€" vincial government. In any event it is not“ on the town of Timmins. In discussing the question, The Cochrane Northland Post last week opened an editorial article with the following paragraph :â€" “Have times and manners so changed that a government‘s promise is no longer of any value? Some five or six months ago the Mayor and Council of Cochrane received the assurance that when the Trans-Canada Highway Camps were opened. Cochrane would be one of the first places to be relieved of the transient unemployed. There are now several thousand men in these highway camps and not a single man of them is from Cochrane. It is true that there are as many transient un- employed in Cochrane now as there were two months ago, but the condition of those still here is not improving. The fact that two local stores were en- tered this week and a quantity of goods stolen is an indication that some. at least have reached a state of despera- tion. How much longer is this unsatis- factory condition to continue? Are the merchants of Cochrane to be faced with the prospect of‘further depreda- tions? That Cochrane is not the only town in the North with agrievance in this matter is shown by the following from the Porcupine Advance." North Not Receiving Fair Deal In Matter Attitude of Government In Regard to the Unemployment Question Is Not Equitable in View of Pro- mixes Made and Circum- stances of the Case. The Cochrane Northland Post then publishes the editorial from The Ad- vance and proceeds as follows:â€" “It is particularly galling to the towns of the North to know that a large number of the men in the high- way camps have been drawn from towns and cities in the south which should have provided for them. The Collingwood Enterprise last week fea- tured an article by a Collingwood citi- zen. written from a highway camp, in which it was stated that there were about fifty citizens of Collingwood in the camp. If Collingwood can thus be provided for by the Governments, why can't some of the Northern towns also be taken care of? There are in Coch- rane at the present time a number of single young men, for whom the town is unable to furnish employment. Why could not some of these men be taken to the highway camps? They are just as much in need of work as many who have gone from southern communities." In concluding its editorial on the subject; The Post. says:â€" “The Ontario Government, through the Northern Development Branch is spending a lot of money in the North; this winter. for which they deserve due" credit. But the expeKditures through this source are of little aid to the towns of the North as far as relieving unemployment conditions. The greater portion of Northern Development ex- penditiires must be to settlers. who must be either given road work or dir- ect relief. For this reason. only a lim- ited number of the many hundreds Bf transients in the North can be ab- sorbed by the Northern Development work. It would appear quite evident Ethat the Northern'towns are expected to carry a load far beyond their capa- city, and that as far as the Highway is concerned. there has not been the slightest effort to give the North 3 fair break." NE“' LISKEARD’S NEW RINK EXPECTED TO BE READY SOON The New Liskeard Speaker last week sayszâ€"“A few more days of open wea- ther and the dandy new skating arena will be covered in and then the car- penters will be able to finish up regard- less of a little snow. The committee in charge is justly proud of the success of their efl'orts and it only remains for the few who are still behind in their payments to come across quickly to have everything “cleaned-up” when the contractors are ready to turn the build- ing over to the company. The building. with the .7 immense width of the steel frame work looks immense, and we hear more than one of the old- timers expressing the wish that they were in condition to give some of the younger boys a “ride" on the large ice surface which will shortly be available." THE, PORCUPINE ADVANCE, TIMMINS, ONTARIO Canada’s Business Rainbow Appears Now. The Mail and Empire has gone one better by issuing what it terms the “Rainbow Edition." The aim, the pin“- pose. the motto of the edition is fully explained by the heading on the cover pagezâ€"“Canada‘s Business Rainbow Appears." This is backed up by the message from Vernon Knowles, manag- ing editor of The Mail and Empire:â€" “From Halifax to Vancouver the sun has broken through; the business rain- bow appears. The tide of business has turned. The ground is firmer under- foot. The rewards of constructive toil again are being soughtâ€"and one thing Tide of Business has Turned.

The Sunshine column was a protest against the hapless, hepeless, helpless attitude assumed by so many people and papers on the present depression. The Mail and Empire‘s Sunshine column made no effort to picture conditions other than they are. It did give emphasis to the outstanding good features of dull days. The column did genuine ser- vice, not so much by cheering people up. as by simply presenting to them true and valid reasons why they should not be down in the dumps. Highest totaJ score:â€"â€"C.
