Ontario has built up an excellent forest prctection ser- Vioe. 'Lth the airplane as a. chic! fac- tor in the work. There is little fault to find now with Ontario's forest pro- tection service, except that it might be extended and perlmps there would be advantage to the country as well as better treatment to the men engagsd if they were employed the whole year round. ‘While there is little criticism recently of the Ontario service. it is well to note what is being done else- where. In Quebec the forest protec- tion service has also been very success- ful. Some statistics recently published in regard to the Quebec service may be of interest. The Quebec Provincial Forest Pro- tection Service divides the forests in- to twelve districts. all of which aie equipped with headquarter: staffs branch stations. lookout towers. air- plane service. and radio and telegraph and. of course fi1e fighting apparatus of a portable nature It is a rather amusing but also instructive sight to watch a lanky sinewy looking chap in khaki and a sam brown. darting hithzr and you with a large rubber bag full of chemical which he squirts at burning brush through a short hose and nozzle, the result is quite satisfactory. The service consists of 2.291 men, composed of 127 inspzctors and assistant inspec- tors; 573 regular fire rangers; 1,329 asâ€" sistant fire rangers; 67 auxiliary in- spectors; 195 auxiliary rangers. In ad- dition there are 2,245 forest protection- ists of different grades employed by fiiflerent associ'afcions and limit, holders. so mat, the number of men, who are engaged in protecting the lumber sup- ply of the province of Quebec, is within striking distance of 5.000. There are fifty-five w-OOd and steel watch-towers or look-outs and a total of 1,002 miles of telephone lines. The work, which is done by the as- sociations proteotive staffs. can be gleaned by the fact that their em- ployees patrolled 76,432 square miles last season and handled 165 fires. The Provincial Protecmon Service handled 591 fires which burned CV er an ac1eage of 44,034, between the first of April to November 30th. Of the total number of fires. 59 of them were attributable to railroads, and most of them were discovered in the ties. and the total damage was only] $299 spread over 1,754 acres. : The Quebec Forest Commission has secured quarters and opened an oflice at 47 Grandle Alle, where all informa- tion relative to the commission can be | secured. G. C. Piche, chief forester inI the Forests and Lands Department, who ' is also secretary of the commission. states that the work of making an in- ventory of the forests and classifying the timber is making rapid progress. A government measure of importance" to lumber companies among other in- dustries was adopted by the Quebec] Provincial Legislature lately, in a bill which permits joint- stock companies the franchise in municipalities on all matters other than commutation of taxes. A further requirement is that the company rep-resenative must be a British subject. I TO MAKE PAPER NOW FROM SLASH PINE IN GEORGIA A paper and pulp laboratory is being established at Savannah, Ga.. for ex- periments in making paper from Georgia slash pine, the State of Gear- gia, the Chemical Foundation (Inc), of New York, and the Savannah In- dustrial Committee co-Cperating in the enterprise. The Chemical Foundation is equipping the plant at a cost of $50.- 000, the State provided $20,000 a year for two years for its operation and the industrial committee provided the site at the foot of West Broad street, Sa- vannah, which was donated by the $3- vannah Electric Power Co. Howard C. Foss, chairman of the industrial committee, is president of the power company. A carload of machinery has arrived for the plant and it, is now being set up preparatory to beginning the wcrk of making slash pine into paper. Here is a. curious and interesting ex- port from Canada to the United States. A solid block of blue granite. hewn from the side of Mount Sir Donald in the Canadian Rockies, was shim-3d recent- ly from Glacier National Park, Britisn Columbia. to New Haven, Connecticut. to be incorporated as a corner stone in the Strathoona Memorial building new in the course of erect-ion at Yale University. Forming part of the Scien- tific School at Yale, this buildlng is intended as a memorial to the late Lord Stmthcona. one of the pioneer railway builders of Canada. The task of getting the rock from the foot of the mountain to the railway. a distance of four miles proved dimcult. A small caterpillar tractor was taken in from the station of Glacier up the trail to- a railway car and sent on its 3 GOO-mile trip across the continent to its desa- nation.

Constructed for saddle pony traffic only, the width of the trail proved inadequate to accmno- date the tractor. The trail was there- fore widened, and finally the two-torn rock was loaded.

North Bay Aldermen Now Favour Dropping Own Pay At North Bay city council meeting last week Aldermen Thomson and Rut- ledge sponsored a resolution to the effect that in the cause of economy they should drop their own pay for the year. The two aldermen mentioned seemed to be the only ones in favour of the resolution. The mayor joined the six other aldermen present in 0p- posing the resolution, though the mayor himself is pledged by election promises not to take the salary for the mayor’s position this year. In view of the action of the former premier of Ontario, Hon E. C. Drury, in collecting back pay aft r passing it up while in oflice on the plea of economy for the country. the public are not liable to be too much impressed by this type of promised economy. It may be remem- bered also that Mayor Wemp, of To- FISH AT SAI’LT STE MARIE HAVE GOITRE AT PRESENT ronto, also made some capital of the fact that he did not accept an addi- tion made to his salary during his term as Mayor of Toronto, but after he had left the position. he, too. collected the amount due. received from the council. which was what the resolution amounted to. He added that while the resolutionpre- tended to advance economy, there would not be need for any such econ- omy if previous councils had been eco- nomical. He went on to state that recently governments and large indus- trial concerns had been cutting wages without regard for those who were not able to defend themselves, and he felt. the principle was far from a good one He was definitely against the resoluâ€" tion. So was Alderman Bullbrook who said that last he had disbursed a great deal more in the way of help-outs than his council remeneration amounted to “That is the only way I have of keepâ€" ing anywhere near even in the thing,” he added. The Advance was under the impres- sion that work on the Trans-Canada highway was carried out this winter to assist the needy by providing employ- ment. That was the general opinion. There were literally hundreds of men who were in dire need who would have liked to have secured 'work on the road but who could not do so. It was explained that as many men as pos- sible were taken on but that there was a limit to the number that could be employed. Accordingly. it was believed that only the really needy were taken Isn’t There Something Very Wrong in This Case ? on. The work was not looked upon as a means of allowing men to save or gather a. neaâ€"egg. It was only to help out those in immediate need. Other- wise why refuse anyone? And especi- ally why refuse those in actual need? There were literally thousands in the North who did not known where their next meal was coming from, and yet these thousands, including hundreds from Timmins alone were not given a chance. But just read the following paragraph from last weeks' North Bay Nugget:â€" tion should be made of this case. It the i facts are as stated in that paragrath there is something very radically wrong. That men who were in need of a meal should be refused a place on the work! and opportunity given for a man who? needed the work so little that he could save all his cheques for the four months and “go back to the farm,” with that blushing admission that he “might get! married this spring,” suggests a statei of affairs that certainly needs investi- gation. It would make a. good subject) for questions to be asked in the legis-l lature. “What was the purpose of the‘ work on the Trans-Canada highway?"l “Was it to provide opportunity for sav- ing, or for living?” “Why were men who were actually on the point of starving who needed clothing and other things, refused a. chance on the work, while another man, with a farm to go back to. could use it for nothing more than a. help along?” An editorial note in The Sud‘amr Star last week sayszâ€"“T‘he Timmln‘: town council has endorsed the Sudbury movement for a, connectmg road b ‘- tween rthe nickel district and the P0?- cupine gold damp.
