William Finâ€" layson, Minister of Lands and Forests, in which he stated that an exception would be made in favour of Cobalt from the policy being pursued at presâ€" ent, and that the Northern Developâ€" ment would supply a foreman and a steel sharpener for the job. The town woulkd do the rest, as a condition, and council was agreeable. This work has been under consideration for two years past. It will include the widening of the road at these two corners and also the remsoval of some cf the rock beâ€" bween them, and it was stated this imâ€" mement not cnly would make the safer for mstorists, but would benefit the children attending the two schools in this vidinity. Council made grant of $500 to the Victorian Order Of Nurses after the may>r had describâ€" ed the nurse, Miss L. Edmison, as "an acquisition to the town." The Order had asked for $550, the same as in 1932.

The committee plans to issue a series of bulletins dealing with various phases of the finances of the province of Ontario. Each bulleâ€" tin will contain comments and recomâ€" mendations as to ways in which it is believed economies can be effected. The board of trade of the city of Tsronto is sponsoring their movement and it is from the Toronto baard of trade that the following bulletin was received:â€" Taxation in Canada having now, and for the first time, reached the point where it has become a major and serâ€" ious factor in the conducting of busiâ€" ness and is having a crippling effect upon all branches of trade and comâ€" merce, strong action towards remedial measures . has been commenced throughout the country under the priâ€" Province Wide Committee Plan Campaign to Reduce Taxation mary auspices of the Canadian Chamâ€" ber of Commerce and the Toronto Board of Trade, through the setting up of provincial committees to consider the situation in each of the provinces. preliminary survey of conditions in Ontario, and representâ€" ing thirtyâ€"seven cities and towns of the province, the Ontario Committee on Economy ‘in Public Finance met Thursday, Feb. 16th under the auspices of the Toronto Board of Trade, to forâ€" mulate a plan of action to provide deâ€" finite information for the public, so that all citizens may know exactly whal they are contributing, directly and inâ€" directly, to the provincial revenues and to the various local administrative boâ€" dies. From this step, backed by an enâ€" lightened public opinion, it will be the object of the committee to coâ€"operate with the provincial and local adm‘inisâ€" trations in securing necessary action tewards reducing governmental expenâ€" ditures of all kinds so that substantial reductions in taxation may follows in due course. Timmins is represented on the comâ€" mittee by John Knox, manager of the Hollinger Consolidated Gold Mines. Limited. The National Committee (of the Chamber of Commerce) on Economy in Public Finance met in Toronto on Novâ€" ember 2ist last. ‘One of the decisions reached at that time was that the proâ€" vincial governments should be made acquainted as soon as possible with the economy campaign which was being undertaker through the National and Provincial Committees in order that they would understand its purpose and that it was intended to be a nonâ€"poliâ€" tical coâ€"operative movement and not one <of destructive criticism of governâ€" ments. In accordance with this deciâ€" sion, a delegation fro:n the Toronto Board of Trade waited upon the Honâ€" ourable George S. Henry, Prime Min:sâ€" ter of Ontario, dnd the Honourable E. A. Dunlop, Provincikl Treasurer, and explained that the object of the move: ment was to study Federal, Provincial and Municipal finances in order. to obâ€" tain firstâ€"hand knowledge of the existâ€" ing financial condition of the various interested governments, to coâ€"operate with them, through constructive sugâ€" gestlons as to economies which might be effected, and to educate public opinâ€" ion to the need for economy so that governments might be supported in their endeavours to economize and reâ€" duce taxation, rather than be petitionâ€" ed for increased expenditures. With respect to the finances of the Province of Ontario, the Ontario Comâ€" mittee will shortly issue a series of bulletins dealing with revenues, expenâ€" ditures, debt and public utilites. ‘The Ontario Committee ‘has recommended the formation of commitfees in the various municipalities throughout the province, through local boards of trade, chambers of commerce and other reâ€" cognized bod‘es, for the purpose of studying local municipal finances.

Ackerâ€" Hundred Men Employed men are being given one,. week‘s emâ€" ployment at a time, in order that the mconey expended may be spread among as many as possible and, while bad weather has interfered to some extent with the schedule, the practice of a week at work and then a layâ€"off has been adhered to closely. The work now being done comprises the building and sinking of cribs to extend the breakâ€" water and the construction of an "L" extending south to partly enclose the space which forms the harbour. As the water at the outside extremity of the construction is 20 feet deep, a largâ€" er amount of both timber and rock is required and this has been a great deal of work to both men and teams. The The Halleyburian last week says:â€" "About one hundred men are employed directly or indirectly, on the construcâ€" tion of the Halleybury airport, accordâ€" ing to Jos. Isherwood, who has charge of the work. There are also at the present some 20 teams of horses engagâ€" ed in the work of hauling in rock from the surrounding district and in the bringing in of the required timber. The cribs which form the balance of the brealwater and the "L" have now been sunk to the bottom, where they are at present resting on a couple of feet of soft mud. They are being gradually sunk through this substance to the solid bottom of the lake, through the addition of .rock filling. This filling was only nlaced in half of the "pockets" ‘of the cribs, the other being left clear for the driving of piles to hold them steady in their places. The job of pile driving is starting this week and wil) require considerable time. When this is completed the cribs will be filled up with more rock, additional cribwork added on the t>p, until the whole reaches the same level as the completâ€" ed portion of the breakwater. It wil. be finished in the same manner as that portion. Mr. Isherwood said this week that, while there would be about 2,50( yards of rock required still he expectec that the whole would be completed beâ€" fore the breakâ€"up this spring and the harbour would be available for the use of planes when the ice goes out."
